As much as I love yandere Dottore, I really don’t think he has enough interest in other people to form any sort of intense attachment on his own. Darling Dottore on the other hand…

Think about it. He wouldn’t care what you do as long as it doesn’t get in the way of his research. Hell, he probably likes having someone obsess over him, especially if it brings out all your worst traits.

This means that you have free reign to be as touchy as you want with him. You can kiss the top of his head while he sits at his desk, or cling to his arm while he walks. He doesn’t interact with you much or see you as a companion, but sometimes he’ll offer you tiny scraps of physical affection and you can’t help but latch onto them.

Though he’s never openly encouraging, Dottore doesn’t mind playing along with your fantasy. He rests a hand on the top of your head, lets you sit on his lap while he goes through his notes, even allows you to braid the longer sections of his pale blue hair. He tests the waters of manipulation early on. Dottore’s something of a master when it comes to playing games with people’s feelings, (side note: he’s also a cutthroat Uno player) and he’s genuinely curious to see how far he can push you before you break.

You’re clearly very attached to him, and sometimes he wonders if this is what Enkanomiyan generals were talking about when they said it was best to pair soldiers with their romantic partners. There’s a fierceness in you, a conviction that only appears when you’re with him, and despite his general lack of feelings towards other people he can’t help but admire it. Obsession is a heady drug it would seem.
