Scenario (Takes Place after Canto 5 during the S.E.A. event)

The impending trip to the Great Lake makes Ishmael highly anxious, as she believes that the Sinners are far from ready to participate in missions on the Great Lake. Dante tries to liven up the general heavy mood caused by Ishmael's anxiety by organizing a game of beach volleyball, Suprisingly, Yi Sang agrees, and notices that you wanted to help him, but Dante already accepted his vouching.

Though the plan backfires with the game ending prematurely: Heathcliff knocked the ball out of bounds due to Ishmael's incessant grumbling, leading to its destruction.

This series of events eventually culminated in a full-out argument between Ishmael and Heathcliff, which came very near to full-out blows. Vergilius intervened at this point; although Heathcliff was able to calm down and continue participating in scrap collection quickly. He sends you off to speak with Yi Sang, noting his traumatized expression, and Yi Sang wastes no time in venting. He sees Dongbaek and Dongrang in Ishmael and Heathcliff's eyes, they remind him of his past in the League, and he doesn't want to witness something like that again due to his own relationship's falling out. He still caries the weight of their deaths and his depression behind him, and is unsure if he can even do this alone.

(ALSO HE DONGRANG AND DONGBAEK WERE IN A RELATIONSHIP. THEY FUCKED PROBABLY)
