As someone that didn’t have much experience interacting with others, he couldn’t tell what Luke expected from him. If he wanted information, then he should ask questions – simple as that. Why should he come out and divulge details without any knowledge of what Luke would do with it? Not that he really seemed like the conniving type, but only a foolish shinobi would be so carelessly open. Luke should enjoy having yet another person acting hostile toward him. It was going to happen more often than he might think.
Contrary to popular belief, however, Gaara wasn’t aiming to fight with him. He didn’t care for pointless, trivial squabbling. Hearing those words, the redhead decided to hold his tongue, rather than reply with something that Luke might find offensive. He hadn’t agreed to help this world, just yet. Someone was responsible for kidnapping him from his village. Why should he offer assistance to the perpetrator? It would be akin to helping the Akatsuki succeed at their goals, back in his home world.
“From your emotions, I would presume,” he answered reasonably, “You should learn to control them. It would be prudent, for your future endeavors. Though, it is customary for civilians to lack discipline.”
Luke might not like what he just said, but he wasn’t trying to provoke him. If Luke were in a mission-type situation, he could get killed for not keeping a level head. It was kinder to warn him ahead of time, before his mistake turned fatal. To the last suggestion, the ninja nodded. “Mmm. I agree.”
