[A wave of emotion surges over him and he wants to shake Itachi by the shoulders for reasons that he can't entirely discern. Itachi has done nothing to warrant it, and Wei Wuxian lets out an annoyed sigh at himself, shaking the feeling off.]

Then I think it's cruel because I know for people like us...even if I don't know what you've done, it weighs on you. I know you carry it.

And I don't know how someone who carries that can see past it to admire anything about themselves at all. No matter how much is there to admire.

[blackfire]

What weighs on me or doesn't, what I carry or don't is not your business.

This is not a difficult task for me. Take care not to think us too alike, Wei Wuxian.

[Months ago, he probably would have believed him. Now, he's not so sure. Either way, he takes the cue that this part of their conversation is over. He has no desire to try to push Itachi when his friend is clearly laying down a boundary. Anyway, Itachi is definitely right about one thing, and it's that it's none of his business.]

I'm sorry then, for assuming. And I have an unrelated question for you. What do you think counts as an act of violence?

[blackfire]

You could try punching someone.

[singlelogbridge]

Yeah. But I don't have an interest in punching someone who doesn't deserve it. I was hoping I could get away with something smaller. Pinching or flicking. Something like that.

I'll figure it out.

[blackfire]

Ask the others.

There is always someone willing to endure physical violence for someone else's goal.

[He sighs and files that away. He kind of still hates it on principle, but he supposes if he can find someone willing, that'll work.]

Alright, I'll ask. Thanks.
