too late

[glasshole]

So in the game he pretty much found her pleasant company. There wasn't any serious plan with her. Like, there was really not a concentrated plot to form an alliance with the DR kids or manipulate her or anything. He just wanted to get her on his side a bit in case at any point he needed an in with the DR kids or an ally or something like that, and the more people he's talking to, the better. While he was alive in the game he was seriously under a lot of pressure because he knew the odds of being able to get five people plus buddies out alive were really low but he felt a responsibility to make sure it happened. So, yeah. Talking to people wasn't out of any altruistic desire to make friends, but with a few exceptions, it wasn't actually conniving, either. He was just trying to expand his contacts, really. In their conversation he pretty much kept it shallow and only said things he thought she wanted to hear. He did wind up saying a few things that were true, but he only shared them because he thought it would be something she wanted to hear. His statement about being sure his schoolmates weren't VIP was honest; he didn't give the full story because it would make him look bad, but he felt that if they were VIP, they would talk to him because they'd understand that he'd betray the guests to save them. He didn't consider brainwashing because it is medically really implausible. So, yeah. He was just idly sharing his thoughts, he never expected her to act on it or really care about what he said. And when he got the letter he was furious with Aya, but not with her. It was fine. He had to mitigate it, but it wasn't a bad mistake on her part, just on Aya's. Anyway, his overall thoughts about her were that she was intelligent, had a good head on her shoulders, had a tendency to get too emotional or overreact that is kind of annoying, but a decent person to talk to. They could never have become friends because that isn't how he operates, but they could have related to one another okay.

In the graveyard things got ugly pretty much because she got in the way of his post-death shitfit and took it seriously. Like, she was right, he was way out of line blaming her for the letter, and he didn't really believe it was her fault. But he was just lashing out because he was just coming off of something really awful and didn't want to deal with people just then. He knows it wasn't her fault and did vaguely apologize for that later. But the way she reacted just really turned him off of her. Like, blaming him for her trusting her friends is such fucking bullshit to him. Especially because she really has no idea what host club is about; he doesn't blindly trust people, and that isn't a value he'd espouse even pretending to be a nicer guy than he is. They are just a really tight knit group, and that isn't something that has anything to do with her and how she feels about her friends.

It happens to hit one of his nerves - people who like to think they know or understand him when they don't understand and he didn't give them permission to understand. It's just one of his hang ups, and it really sets him off. So she was right; she wasn't reading more into their relationship than what was there, that they were acquaintances who got along just fine in an ugly situation. But he really does hate that shit; the people he hates or looks down on most are people who think they had an emotional connection with him when that's something he gives out very, very rarely. So even though he calmed down and half-apologized and started treating her nicely again and even using her as a sounding board for his anger, his feelings about her did a nose dive. He finds her emotional and irritating and incredibly presumptuous, especially because she made so many assumptions about him and his motives.

So, yeah. It would make him look bad to be too mean but he just does not find her worth his energy anymore.
