It's not at all a bad thing to want attention. It's a natural part of existing β who would want a life where no one perceives you, let alone fawns over you on occasion? β° he shudders at the thought. β± If it's you that wants the attention, Zuko, I will say that I think you can get it from someone who isn't essentially telling you their heart is already set on another person.
β° yeah, he's not forgetting that bit. β±

[ He is dejected by this, uh, very logical response. Tamaki's giving him straight talk and he appreciates it... even though it's not what he wanted to hear, he realizes now. Maybe a part of him was hoping that the guy who seems so especially worldly and well-versed in this stuff β even though Zuko's wildly misinformed β would tell him something unexpected. But it seems the rules are the same across the board, even for people who love everyone, as Hikaru put it... ]

Quite frankly, his need for attention doesn't much matter to me based on how this scenario sounds very one-sided. But if you're insistent that you must take care of him, you can give him as much attention as you want.
β° tamaki sighs, still thrown off after finding out zuko thinks he's a sex addict. the more details he receives about zuko's situation, though...zuko's really into this guy, for whatever reason. that's how love is, but this relationship doesn't seem so destined to tamaki. and that's what matters most, not fostering love between people when it seems like someone will be hurt. β±
If you insist on continuing this thread with him, just remember that your happiness and fulfillment matter. If those needs aren't met, then it's not a relationship worth this much effort.

...Have you ever fallen in love with someone who didn't love you back, then? N-Not that that's what this is with Gokudera, uhβ I'm not in love with him! He's my best friend! Butβ ...are you speaking from experience?
[ He ventures a glance up, nervous to hear this answer, too. ]
no subject
Despite what Hikaru or Kaoru β or both of them have told you, I've never been in love with someone. I have an appreciation for the affection of others, and a want to make sure they're happy and cared for, but to fall in love is an extremely different state of mind.
I speak from my own understanding of the human heart β and of, in this case, what I consider to be common sense.

[ Flat face. But Tamaki's words do help. Not at all the way he'd expected or hoped they would, but still help all the same. He sighs, flicking the flame on again to fidget with his lighter as he processes all this, staring into it thoughtfully. ]
If you've never been in love, thenβ what's the grey area? Is there one? Between friendship and something else, if not love exactly? Is it justβ the moons...? Since Hikaru and Kaoru lied to me and you're not, uhβ like that... How do you deal with that, then? The moons and all. This place hasn't confused you?
[ He's not sure if he wants to know the answer in detail, clearly still uncomfortable talking about sex, but he's curious about Tamaki now. If Tamaki's not some polyamorous pansexual promiscuous sex fiend with endless friends with benefits as the twins have given Zuko the impression he is... then what? The way he's talking now makes him sound virginal and pure and maybe like he's guided only on principle, lacking experience even more than Zuko himself, potentially? Or is it just that he's never been in love because sex doesn't require love for him? Zuko's only recently met someone who said he had emotionless sex with total strangers, which was a ground shaking concept to him, one he'd never want for himself, he thinks. But somehow, that's not at all the vibes Tamaki is giving him... ]
