[ Somehow, knowing why he's been so uncomfortable in 2B's presence makes him angrier than the fact that he's uncomfortable at all. It's as if he can smell the multiple partners she's had. Others who have touched her, seen her exposed, defiled her with their disgusting fluids and marked her as if she belongs to them. And even if he logically knows that isn't the case, he feels it. It seeps into his skin and rots him to the core and he knows full well it's jealousy.
Why hasn't he initiated anything? Likely because of his lack of self esteem. 9S clings to 2B like a wounded animal, and it's easy enough to do that but requesting they initiate a sexual relationship seems impossible to him. Knowing he has to compete with the individuals he's seen...
No. No, he's good at intimacy. Plenty of people have commented on it actually. 9S is still a fast learner, even without his scanning capabilities in place while he's human. 9S is essentially lying by omission in acting like he doesn't have a choice. He's been called by previous partners, because if they have to go through with this? They might as well enjoy it. But 9S takes no pleasure in his expertise, especially since it just feels so fucking empty pounding into a person he doesn't really care about.
The individual 2B speaks of? Oh yeah. He likes her alright. Not nearly as much as 2B, but she isn't wrong to suggest her. She's been a frequent go-to. And he would comment on that, if it weren't for the clear jealousy he hears in her tone.
That? That... oddly excites him. 9S stops typing for a moment, staring at the screen blankly where he avoids making a look that indicates his interest in that tone. He starts typing again, as if it's nothing. ]
That bothers you.
[ It's not a question. 9S is in far too foul of a mood to be coy. But hey, a reaction would be nice. ]
Dunno why. Mr. Biceps seems to do just fine for you. I'm not a contender.
[ Does he sound jealous? Yep. Obviously, this has been boiling for a while. ]
