Red hates mind-readers, and maybe Psychics. It’s not that he doesn’t appreciate Sabrina’s power or quiet grace, because he considers her a friend, and as long as Will is not standing next to him, he can chat amiably quite well. He’s just afraid, because he knows that if you look a Psychic in the eyes, they can read your thoughts.
Of course, it would take a very experienced one to peer into the depths of his mind, but even his surface thoughts are dangerous.
He doesn’t want anyone to know what he thinks!
His thoughts swirl around, eddying in his mind like muddy water, and he clutches his arms to his body very tightly, afraid that he will shatter and spill his closely guarded secrets. Because, it’s so wrong it could totally ruin their relationship…
Red is in love with Erika.
She is older than he is, and society frowns upon relationships with older women. She’s also his cousin to some degree, but he’s not sure which. Plus, she is a very traditional Japanese woman. That is probably the worst part.
What if she hurts him? What if she doesn’t love him? What if he marries her and it’s the worst decision of his life? Or what if she turns out to have crazy ideas about honor, like people do in his manga?
That would be scary!
Red doesn’t want anyone else to know about this love. So that’s why, he’ll keep far, far away from anyone who might find out. That way, he can keep everything to himself, locked up tight in his thoughts, the way they should be.
