[he means that he could do it himself because mineo doing it for him is very sweet and, like most kind gestures, white doesn't know what the fuck to do with that!

... Yeah, I get that. I was kind of wondering if he'd ever try and do something. [a beat, as he smiles wryly.] Though the difference between people like you and people like me is that it was almost comforting.

it's more terrifying for white to wonder when those who show him kindness will finally tire of it.]
