If one were to observe carefully, one could intuitively perceive Obito's feelings for Qiyun; after all, Zhang Fei did not frequently blush in front of Guan Yu.
Realizing that Obito held feelings for him that transcended friendship, Qiyun would be lying if he said he wasn't conflicted. Unlike in his past life, Obito was one of the few friends in this world whom he knew inside and out, and to whom he had given his complete trust—not to mention he was a child he had watched grow up from a young age. Qiyun considered his mental age to be much older than Obito's; if things really progressed toward a romantic relationship, wouldn't that make him some kind of creepy older man?
Qiyun currently had neither the energy nor the mindset for romance. The Honkai and the Herrscher weighed upon his heart like a massive mountain; now was simply not the time to consider such matters.
