Your parents look genuinely hurt by that comment.

Yui
Yui raised an eyebrow, surprised by their reaction. She folded her arms.
"...Surely you can't look at humankind's history of war, conflict, greed, violence, slavery, how we made countless species of animals and plants to go extinct, how we heavily polluted our planet, how we basically ruined our ecosystem, how we almost doomed ourselves to the same extinction we sent so many other species through, how we went ridiculously close to a nuclear world war and almost nuked each other to hell, and honestly try to tell me we did a good job?" she pointed out.

"Be that as it may, we still." Your father tries to argue.

Yui
"...Yes? We still what?" Yui asked, as he seemed to be hesitating. "...We still have good people? We have done some good things in history? ...Sure, but at the end of the day, we still nearly wiped ourselves off the map, and our history is so heavily loaded with bad actions that you have to search for the good ones. People like us wouldn't be constantly trying to 'make the world better' if it was amazing, dad", she pointed out.
"At some point, when one is on the path to self-destruction, and can't get off of it on one's own, it's not a bad thing to accept a helping hand from someone who knows better. Pride is no reason to stubbornly destroy ourselves when we have a brighter future ahead of us with the Empire. That's all I'm saying", she concluded.

"Even still a bit of loyalty to your own species would be nice." Your mother said.

Yui
Yui frowned.
"Seriously, mom? ...Having a critical mind and recognizing our failures and shortcomings is not disloyalty. It's common sense! It's a sign of maturity, honesty and modesty. Refusing to do at least this much is bordering on wilful delusion... And we cannot grow as a species if we won't even acknowledge where we came short. You raised me that way, you of all people should both know better", she pointed out.
"That 'us against them' mentality is the very reason why humanity has been stagnating over the last couple of decades. We are so busy fighting each other and hating anyone who's a little different from us over the stupidest reasons that we have no energy or resources left to better ourselves or step forward towards a better tomorrow. I can't be the only one of us who understands that. Throw me a bone here!"

Your parents both look genuinely hurt, and disapointed at your retort.
"I think you should leave. We'll talk later." Your mother says pointing at the door.

Yui
Yui glared at her, feeling the exact same way by their words and reactions in response.
"...Unbeleivable... I'm leaving, alright. And I thought I was the one living in the past", she let out, tearing up as she made her way out without another word.
Her enthusiasm positively shattered, she didn't feel like going to visit her brother, his wife and her new niece. She'd only cry her heart out if she went, and he deserved better than this. Instead, she manifested her wings and flew off in the distance in a random direction as fast as she could fly, gritting her teeth as she tried dealing with that horrible experience. 3 in Flight to fly off in a random direction out of anguish.

You fly and fly, and come across a beach....
Where a bunch of girls are playing some sort of strip volleyball game.

(OOC: Not sure if this qualifies for a Minor or Moderate Event as far as her Lust/Sex Empowerment is concerned, as it seems to be kind of in-between, so I'll note it as Minor for now.)
Yui
The winged brunette found herself captivated for a moment, landing down on the beach and staring at the scene for an instant. Afther said instant passed, she glanced around, wondering what kind of a beach she had ended up on.

It was a normal if secluded beach far from civilization of any significant kind.

Yui
"No. No, no, no. Enough with this", Yui let out, forcing herself to look away. That she even had to force herself to look away from strip volleyball players after having that fight with her parents said a lot about how lewd she'd become.
Sighing, she teleported back home, no longer willing to bring herself to visit her brother after what had happened. She'd call him sometime, and they'd meet at a later time. For now, there was nowhere else she'd rather be than home. 8 in Teleportation to head back home.

You arrive home with no further problems.

Yui sighed, dropping onto the nearest couch.
"...I'm back", she let out, in case the others were around.

It seemed like no one was home at the moment.
