seriously its like if u showed 10 people ur photo n asked em " is this guy attractive " 8 of em would say yea & 2 of em would be lyin so people treat u different ( better ) cuz u have somethin they want
[It's cruder language than he's accustomed. Not even Stiles is that straightforward or blunt, at least in casual conversation, so it knocks him a little off guard.]
No. If that was the only reason you spoke to me, I suspect you might have lost interest by now. Though I don't understand your motivations well otherwise.
[At a loss—no one has ever openly pursued him like this—Itachi stares at the wall for a good twenty minutes contemplating his own life choices before he can reply.]
Why? Do you truly view a goal like that as something worthwhile?
u talk about " that " as if its somehow more simple than anything else ur complicated im complicated u cant even stand to touch me for longer than 2 minutes
from this vantage it looks like a mountain climb but that dont mean it aint worth headin for the summit
... The reaction I have to you isn’t wholly personal. Touch, without intent for violence, is still unfamiliar to me. If not for prior dimensions, Synchrony would also be a difficult experience and one I’m unlikely to enjoy.
Although with you, it is particularly intense.
[So that part is personal. Stop feeling so much.]
I should dissuade you from any attempts now. Or perhaps you’ll give up, and I will have no need to.
then be violent but i get it, i used to hate bein touched too, now its the language im most fluent in passion and deception cant coexist so it evens the playing field
