[Listen, he's not thinking anything weird, but she's being very forceful and just confusing him more??? And he's now on the couch. ...Has this thing even been cleaned he doesn't really want to be on it—
He's trying to follow, and what she says makes some sense, but he does take some offense to her doubt about him covering her.]
If you're worried about my sight, it's a temporary condition and I'm still capable of fighting.
[...And he's assuming she wants to look at his eye, which he won't mind, but she's looking away from him.
Again.
...
There's a beat before he slowly leans closer towards her.]
Tifa look at me.
[A few thoughts have occurred to him just then. One is of course her more recent avoidance of him, the one that had for some reason was starting to irritate him as her attitude is now becoming similar to earlier.
But he's also reminded of what happened before with the stalker and how intense things had been. Although different, it's a little similar and he could see that she could have been rattled by everything. Maybe not the same way, but she could still be shaken a bit by all the pressure.
There are some things he can let slide and brush off, and if it's the latter then he won't push. But if this is stemming from whatever has her avoiding him from the start... If the only time she'll look at him is through some weird forced play then he'll really be annoyed—even if he won't know why.]
