Scorpion looked away for a moment, a bit shamed for being correctly called out on his feelings while talking to Norrington and Weatherby.
"I do not tell you these things to shock you or to get you to react in some way, Sonya. I only answered because you asked. Though I do not volunteer this information freely, I have no reason to lie or hide."
"Not everyone would have made the same decisions I made. I am aware of this. But, that is what I was. Coming here and being this..." He opened his palm and touched the side of his face briefly. "...makes no sense to me. Hanzo Hasashi died. What I am now is different from him, and from you. Though my body is human now, perhaps I've resided too long in the Netherrealm to really be human again."
That was the reason he had not mentioned anything to Sonya about dating outside of that strange Valentine's Day. Anyone worth caring about in that way should keep a distance away from him.
