These two have major communication issues. As you say, any progress Aki has made on that front, he has made on his own and not without some desperate and rather lonely soul searching. Whether he meant to or not, Asami put Aki in his place with those words and hasn't really offered any other words to help pull him out of it. In face, the reason Aki needs those particular words is because of some other particular words Asami said early on that have spoken way louder than any actions Asami has taken since, and that's "You don't have that kind of value." In fact, actively backtracking according to the most recent chapters.Īgree! One thing you hear so often in this fandom in response to "When will Asami say 'I love you?'" is the old chestnut "Actions speak louder than words." Which isn't necessarily true and it is demonstrably untrue in this case. But I also think Akihito's been making strides in that area, or at least he was until sensei rewrote that scene with Sudou where Akihito realizes how he fits into Asami's life. (1/2)Ģ/2) Could Akihito stand to read between the lines a bit more? Yeah. Asami caused a large amount of those problems in the first place with his actions and words, HE needs to fix it. While I love this fandom, and the fanfic it produces, there seems to be this pervasive belief in both that if only Akihito could just ACCEPT things, if only he could just READ BETWEEN THE LINES then all their problems would be solved and just - no. I just want to say - I really loved your post about Asami needing to actually SAY things to Akihito to get them across.
