Well, the tone in the first chapter reminds me of The Eternal Calm video. In that video, we see Lulu and Wakka helping Yuna as she acts as High Summoner. That means, she still needs to act very prim and proper and stuff, and she was meeting with pilgrims who came to see her/the temple at Besaid and being proposed to by high-ranking officials all over the place, sooo...

I don't know, I got the sense she was very much stuck in her role as High Summoner while in Besaid. Trapped, almost, which is part of why she went with Rikku on her journey. She 'wanted more', as she said.

Therefore, I don't think how she acts in Besaid, being shooed off by village elders, is uncharacteristic. Besaid still sees her as The High Summoner. The people of the village are very traditional. After all, they become the headquarters of the Yevoners.

I mean, clearly in X-2 she 'wanted more' and she's learned to embrace sticking up for herself and her own wants, but even still, she cares so much about Spira and tries not to offend and basically is a people pleaser. She DID sign up to be a summoner, and thus she's probably accepted her responsibilities as High Summoner, especially now that her adventure with the Gullwings is over. But, apparantly, they end up staeling off into the night on a ship, so she does, EVENTUALLY, put her foot down and break away from the village elder's attempts to groom her back into the perfect little summoner.

Idk. I just don't think that's necessarily OOC.

But I also don't think it's not weird that they would be a little wary of him. They still probably see him as the reckless youth who ran into the temple and disturbed her. I'm not sure that Yuna and co. would exactly explain to Spira what happened. After all, the whole dream story stuff must have been hard to explain to outsiders, and Yuna probably wouldn't want to talk about it a million times to every interviewer or perosn who came to visit, not while she's grieiving. You saw how nosy Shelinda and others were in X-2 !
