[There is So Much to properly register, and he's not caught on immediately to the poorly phrased statement. He doesn't always catch things immediately in conversation with Ushijima, simply because the other man makes his blood boil. Like right now. It's the same thing every time, trying to decide what's best for him rather than letting Tooru decide for himself.
Hell, he could even say that part of why he left Japan was to get away from that smothering, freeing him from those things.]
There you go, AGAIN, trying to think of what's best or right for me instead of... Oh I don't know, maybe pay attention and not INSULT me! Playing on a team devoted to the ace or abandoning the person I grew up with? I don't think so.
[He's just about to start getting really nasty, until the part about courting him clicks. Oh SHIT. Oh please tell him that's a mistake, poorly worded sentence, and not what the word means.]
Eh-- what do you mean by courting me? You can't mean that you've been trying to date me by trying to pressure me into coming to your school...
[Okay nevermind that, he can bitch to Iwaizumi later about that, he's gotta explain something else now. Just his luck.]
You know what, no, nevermind any of that. Because that cake you ate? It ah... Yeah that's the aphrodisiac laced one.
[The same one he'd snacked on earlier. Great. Of all things, it's the one that ups sexual urges. And it's not like Tooru thought Ushijima was unattractive, in fact he was very handsome. Just rage-inducing.]
I'm DYING over the phrasing oh my god, Ushi plz
