TLDR CR MEME
For when you just love the sound of your own hands on the keyboard, it's
THE TLDR CR MEME
1. Post your characters.
2. Respond to other people's characters.
3. Barf a wall of text about how your character feels about their character.
4. ???
5. Profit! And by profit I mean I guess you've done half the work of a CR chart in here.

For a long while, Shido was outright frightened by him. His guilt of what he did to Goro absolutely consumed him. Guilt, shame, horror, regret... that's all he could feel for the son who's life he ruined. In the beginning, Akechi was Shido's greatest sin.
Now? He's something so much more tangible and concrete than that. Shido has actually, genuinely gotten attached to him, despite all his efforts at keeping a distance, knowing that by trying to be too familiar he was likely to get hurt even more— as he did on the Trivesta.
In fact, at this point, it's... really become something akin to fatherly love. For everything he's learned about him, he's become endeared and so proud of him. For all the shit Akechi has gone through, he's still here— maybe shattered and put back together, but here, and still trying so damn hard. Akechi is absolutely incredible to him, and... he's certain he's gotten all his good traits from his mother, really.
But there's a pretty heavy roadblock in the way of a genuine relationship. Shido has forgiven what Akechi has done in his anger and upset, and even completely trusts him not to do anything and to hold to his promise. And I mean completely. However, he does know that trying for familiarity has gotten him burned, unfortunately, and even if he isn't going to get physically hurt the next time? He still doesn't want to make Akechi that degree of uncomfortable.
Granted, he doesn't fully realize that degree of uncomfortable is because Akechi wants it. He is aware that while to some degree Akechi wants attention, he has no idea how familiar he really wants them to be, and for now he's going to play it on the safe side.
... and that's going to be killing him a bit on the inside, but Akechi's comfort and happiness are far more important.
