[ I'm so sorry that you assaulted me with a vegetable, I can see why my presence haunts you so. ]
I work here, [ Spock returns calmly, and Itachi is treated to the somewhat disconcerting sight of a glowing pair of eyes when the limited light catches them perfectly for a reflective – and somewhat feline – flash. A gift of his Vulcan anatomy, eyesight lesser than a human's during the day but far more sensitive to the infrared spectrum at night. ]
I am attempting to construct a generator in the basement and have seen significant success so far. I should have power back on in this building shortly if I am able to continue my efforts. [ Here, he pauses. ]
[That reflective flash of light narrows his attention onto Spock more fully, heightened with suspicion. A trick of anatomy in a normal man—although there is something unusual to Spock's appearance that suggests he may not be human. It wouldn't be the first individual that has crossed his path in this place who isn't. However, he's only seen eyeshine present in cats.
... Spock is not a cat. Nor does he appear Erune, lacking the attributes of both Eustace and Six. So, then what?]
You demonstrate too much concern for the health of a stranger. [He noticed the change in address of his name; what is he not being told?] Perhaps I have been eating defective vegetables.
[He sounds passive aggressive even in a flat monotone.]
Return to your work. I don't intend to get in the way.
You have been. [ That much he knows; he scanned the vegetables himself. Did he also take readings on the vegetables in the home in which he's been offering Stiles Japanese lessons? Perhaps. Were some subpar? Perhaps. Even still... ]
The quality of your produce should not have made such a significant contribution to this level of decline, however. As such I am forced to conclude that there is another cause.
If you are unwilling to discuss it, I can still offer my assistance. I am far more familiar with the contents of this library and their individual locations than you are.
... Fine. [A fair point to make, and one he's willing to accept in lieu of discussion about his own deteriorating health. If it means locating the information he needs faster—sacrifices can be made. Sacrifices of sharing company with this individual.]
I'm looking for books related to non-medical memory loss. Also, interdimensional travel. They need not be related, but I would more be interested if they were. I understand it is a narrow topic. I was not expecting much, if any, success.
[He's just tired of sitting at home and puking up blood alone.]

You look extremely unwell.
