It depends on what I determine would have the most impact. For simpler illusions, genjutsu is enough to make someone doubt their surroundings or their own mind. With Tsukuyomi, the goal is to break their composure and will to fight, therefore pain tends to be the most effective.
There is also... reliving memories, assuming I can access them. Or share them.
[ Stiles almost wishes he could study different shinobi abilities. Almost. He has a feeling the overpowered ones would break his brain. Just watching Sasuke fight in the mirror had been mind-blowingly aggravating. ]
If you can do it without the traumatic experiences, you can test it on me.
[Logically, so long as he controls the illusion itself, Stiles is not at risk. If anything the true risk is the one posed to himself for using an ability with such a high cost of chakra. Still, it takes him another moment to move past how surreal this is. The benefits - determining how limited his power is here - are promising on their own, at least.]
[Somehow, discussing mental torture is an easier topic than this, which perhaps says a lot about the sort of person Itachi is. Yet there's no reason to put it off. No excuse good enough, none that Stiles will accept.]
[ Suddenly, he’s reminded of Sasuke. Sasuke, who Stiles had thought was asexual until the night on the roof watching the meteor shower, with the younger Uchiha brother’s reluctant confession of, “I have sexual feelings.” Sasuke, who refused to outright say that he had no interest in Jonas when pressed. Sasuke, who didn’t seem to know how to be happy, or think that he deserved to be. ]
Okay, not to get weird bringing up your brother into this, but I think he had similar issues.
We're not in your world anymore. I mean, you still need to be careful who you're intimate with here, but people are pretty receptive to that kind of thing in Hell. At least from my experience.

Do you think there’s going to be greater chakra drain for this like there was for your Sharingan?
no subject
And yes. Most likely. It was significantly taxing even within my own world.

no subject
Are you aware of what you would be agreeing to? It isn’t an experiment without consequences.
no subject
I've already invited you into my memories once. How much more invasive can this be?
no subject
It is... mentally invasive, and disorienting in how it affects time, even without pain or suffering.
[It’s not a no, he’s just... more than a little caught off-guard by the offer.]
no subject
I can deal with disorientation, so long as you help me afterwards if I'm out of it. Deal?
no subject
All right.

It’s not important, Stiles. I needed some time.

The spirit claimed that I enjoyed it.
no subject
So did I. Kinda awkward but there's nothing wrong with that. Is that such a big deal to you?
no subject
[So had Jonas with Sasuke, although his brother hadn’t gone into much detail on that situation otherwise.]
There’s little use in discussing it as a result. I’m fine now.
no subject
Okay, not to get weird bringing up your brother into this, but I think he had similar issues.
Do you think it was wrong that you enjoyed it?
no subject
It doesn’t surprise or upset him that Stiles would mention his brother, considering his own train of thought a moment ago.]
Wrong, no. It’s expected in the context of physical intimacy.
But, I suppose, it’s also dangerous. You should understand to some degree knowing the nature of our world.

I will not avoid you anymore.

When do you want to test
[ A pause while he scrolls up. ]
Tsukuyomi?
