You'll find that Nobodies are quite adept at putting on demonstrations of emotion when it suits us, but it's exactly that- a demonstration. A tool.

[One could argue that Nobodies actually do feel very limited emotions, as Ted noted, primarily anger and fear primarily. There was evidence for that. Nothing, however, even remotely related to love or dating. Nothing that would help Ted. And Zexion wasn't going to discuss that anyway.]

If it came to courtship? Why would it come to that? Nothing would result. It would simply be leading the other person on, and I don't know what purpose that would serve.

[He can't think of how that could benefit him in any way.]
