( no.
but he answers, ) Yes, ( instead keeping the thoughts of brutal, bloody revenge on those who would call him out for his “toothless” affinity for violence, put him underneath the harsh spotlight of scrutiny, and then punish him for it. he hadn’t needed this lesson. he’s aware he doesn’t fit the picture for a certain archetype of rough-and-tumble villain. but that’s not to say that he’s squeamish about all the terrible things one human being can do to another; in fact, he’d say he’s far more infatuated with their concepts than anyone rightly should be, and it’s for the benefit of everyone else around him that he does his best to keep that fact well to himself.
the fire and vinegar that fills him in the moment that he stands up for himself or tries to make another regret how they’d treated him can be exciting and bolstering in the moment, but the consequences have often been so great that he’s learned to second guess himself. sometimes he ends up angry enough that he just doesn’t get to that point, but… here and now, with the injury to his body combined with the injury to his pride, makoto simply wants to retreat and attempt to move on from this.
