No, it doesn't matter. {It just feels like a gulf of time and experience lies between them. Xie Lian is aware that he could harm Kenma. He knows what it's like to be taken advantage of - to be wrapped around someone's finger as they torture him again and again.}
I care about you, Kenma. I want you to know that you are free to do and say anything you like with me. I will do all I can to protect you, but I will never, ever use you.
{He smiles sadly and kisses Kenma's forehead.}
I enjoy it too. My heart...hurts. I'm lonely when I'm by myself. I know I'm being silly. I won't be here forever, but then we're plagued with nightmares or curses and -
It reminds me of times I want to forget. You've helped me so much.
