Of course it's a mental block. He doesn't want to confront the idea that his view of himself might be mistaken, especially because it would leave him very vulnerable.

It's very understandable and very human.

... y'know. I forgot about one dream when you asked me if I ran into any bad ones.

At the end of it, he just completely fell apart. Said it was because he "thought too much".

So it's really like that, huh.

...That happened with me too. I'm sorry you had to see it.

... it's that hurdle in particular that has him disregarding or undermining your perspective. I don't think it's that he's not respecting it. He just doesn't know what else to do with it.

Mmh. I do know that. It still feels disrespectful, though.

Why do I only ever fall for stupid men?

[god, he can't even deny that one, a half-laugh escaping before he can swallow it back.]

They do say opposites attract.

Hah! I know I'm just as bad.

"Birds of a feather", then.

Like Finches and Sparrows.

Particularly those two.

...Thank you.

Feeling a little more settled?

A little.

But I'm still annoyed with him.

He could use some being annoyed at.

I expect there is quite a lot more annoyance yet to come. Especially if I start going a little less easy on him.

Mm... not gonna lie, even I got a bit annoyed with him for being so casual about limb loss. Might've poked at the wound a bit more than I should because of it. Even though I get probably why...

Even if it's understandable, it's still stupid! I tried to point out that he could be more useful to his team with both hands intact, and you know what he said?
