I cannot cease to be this former shell of evil man until I have fully mended each wrong that was derived from my doing.

Ashton has always been tragic and ironically self-fish when it comes to Liza and he had learned this a few issues ago. He's at the point where he knows how much damage he will cause for her yet cannot resist these urges to satisfy the parental void he's carried his entire life, by doing what he thinks Mr. Chet would have wanted him to do. His consumation with Liza was a direct result of his love for her. I didn't see it as a fully bad thing because it has several conflictiing undertones but I wanted the reader to dislike Ashton for it regardless.

Yuri and Frank is completely different from Lizhton because they're both adults and were not even acquaintances before the apocalypse, unlike Lizhton. Yuri feels weak at this point in time and the reason she leads Frank on like that isn't necesarilly sinister but tragic. Yuri's been scared of her own shadow all her life but pretended each day she wasn't. When the fear gets to severe, these feelings erupt and Yuri breaks down. This is where the relationship gets rocky because Yuri's romantic feelings for Frank don't currently exist, yet she to be with him.

Groseros and neck tattoos can only mean one thing...
