"I don't like the way he's lookin' at you. I'm startin' to think you want him, too..."

Atsushi Nakajima

⟡ As sweet as he would be, I believe Atsushi would be very jealous when it comes to his partner.

⟡ Because of years of abuse and neglect he faced in the orphanage he was raised in, he has barely ever had positive attention.

⟡ So naturally, as soon as he started to get that positive attention from you, he instantly began to treasure the feeling and became protective over you.

⟡ He takes your relationship very seriously because he feels that you're one of the first people that he was able to form a deep connection with.

⟡ So, when he feels like your relationship is being threatened somehow, he starts to feel a certain type of way about it.

⟡ He's not controlling or anything, he just sinks too far into his own thoughts and starts to get really intense feelings of inadequacy.

⟡ He will often become visibly distressed when gets too in his own head.

⟡ But he'll deny it until he can no longer hide it.

⟡ He has very low self-esteem, so if he thought that someone that he saw as more attractive than him was trying to come on to you, he would probably get really upset and worried.

⟡ Especially if it's a recurring event with the same person.

⟡ If someone was straight-up flirting with you in front of him, he's going to be so annoyed beyond belief.

⟡ Passive Aggressive. He'll try to be polite, but his irritation is going to be clear in his tone.

⟡ He mostly bottles up his feelings until he lets them out all at once when you two are by yourselves.

⟡ He feels really weak for being a jealous person, but he can't help but feel it.

"Protective or possessive? Girl, call it passive or aggressive..."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa

⟡ ... I don't even know where to start, because this man has so much emotional baggage.

⟡ He's very similar to Atsushi, in which he bonds with someone he cares about deeply and becomes protective.

⟡ However, Akutagawa is more overwhelmed by his feelings of inadequacy.

⟡ Instead of it just being when he feels like his relationship is being threatened, it is a constant feeling for him.

⟡ It only gets worse when he feels like someone is trying to take you from him.
