He might feel more comfortable that way, with Eiji fighting back. The question about the Yummy earns a glare but that's all. He already explained that as much as he's going to, and right now, that's really not the point.
"If you don't know, then I'll tell you. You only care when other people get hurt." That's why he cares more about the Yummy, about having been turned into a zombie in the first place, about the purple eyes that are too reminiscent of a time when he couldn't control his own violent actions. Even with him yelling about what he personally went through as a zombie or thinking more about things like where might be safe to live here, that's what it still comes down to. Ankh even tried to get him to take better care of himself, and how did that go? Ankh hasn't had to pay for his own popsicles yet.
"You died!" And those words are punctuated by Eiji getting shoved into the nearest wall, because it seems like someone has to beat it into his thick skull that this is an important fact. "You go on about how precious life is and how you want to save everyone, but why are you always an exception? You spent two years fixing that damn medal, but who fixes you?" Eiji is human. Humans die permanently. That thought is much more terrifying than fire itself will ever be.
It takes a second for him to realise exactly what he just said, and then he lets go and turns away, yanking himself away from Eiji's grip on him in the process. See, Eiji, this is why you should learn to drop the subject.
