[His hands are just permanently glued to his face at this juncture.]
Attractive means you are easy on the eyes. You're pretty, you're handsome, you attract the attention of others. Sexy..., is not mutually exclusive, most people who are considered sexy are considered attractive I did not start this message planning to play dictionary even a little bit, but the point is you have are attractive and I'm attracted to you.
[A beat, and he realizes he just said that, and turns to staring at his hands in abject horror. It's not like it's news, really, but. He sure did just say that.]
[ Inosuke cocks his head to a shoulder as Tanjiro explains. He seriously doesn't understand why this guy has such a hard time spitting things out sometimes. Just get on with it, Gonpachiro! ]
What you're saying is.. you pay attention to me a lot..?
[There's something really strange about being chided by Inosuke, but Tanjiro takes his figurative licks, staring at the backs of his hands with his shoulders still bunched up all around his ears.]
What's that, [His tone is careful-- if he knows Inosuke, he's going to suggest something ridiculous like fighting. But he's also starting to wonder if he really knows Inosuke at all.]
I think.. you're really nervous 'cause you wanna mate with me like we talked about, but we haven't done it yet! So I think if we do it, you'll stop actin' all funny!
[If tact were a brick, you could hurl it at Hashibira Inosuke and knock him unconscious with it and he still wouldn't learn how to use it, Tanjiro thinks. The worst of it is he's really not wrong, just.. too bold to be embarrassed by what he's saying.]
[Tanjiro turns approximately the color of an overripe tomato, and proceeds to deflate like a balloon into his own palms, shaking his head.]
Inosukeeee, you can't just say things like that, goodness. I mean you're probably right, but lower your voice...?
