Red eyes look between the other two, trying to scrape further any further understanding he can find from their eyes, their expression, anything he can get. Kaworu never thought much about what he looks like. For most of his life, he's felt caged by this form that humans created for him. And all he's known is that he's not put together right, made up of bits and parts that don't go together. At best, he's known that humans to find him eerie and disconcerting, which was probably helpful for viewing him as a creature and not a child.
It's strange to suddenly realizes that he quite cares if Paul and Midoriya find him attractive and that he would feel ashamed if he saw them that way and yet he wasn't much to them at all. It is, he vaguely understands, not an uncommon human dilemma.
Paul's hand suddenly pushes harder on his chest and there's a brief moment where he trembles, as if he considers running away, before he collapses back against the other boy, hand coming up to hold and confirm the steadying force. Midoriya is there too and the place where they meet is warm. He doesn't want to leave or to break this.
"It might not be so bad." Kaworu says, a little quietly. "If someone were to fight over you, it must mean you matter to them."
