It's really only in the last year that I've come around to it. And it's only when I'm thinking about it in BL mode, not slash mode.
There always seems something fundamentally reactive about Tezuka. He rarely intiates. Instead, he responds.
And the way he handles, or rather *doesn't* handle, the bullying when he's in first year suggests that he has an inner weakness. He doesn't, like you'd expect, tough it out and grow strong enough to win the respect of the bullies. Instead, he runs away and is rescued by Yamato.
He doesn't seem to have many close social ties either, so it's not hard to postulate that he would have a hard time dealing with unusual social situations, like someone coming on strong to him.

And that's why. :) What do you think?
