"I don't wanna be your friend...."

[tastes_of_honey]

So I heard Kid Rock's "So Hot," sometimes subtitled "The Stripper's Anthem," and it's, uhm, genius. Ja. I'm particularly intrigued by the line "I wanna fuck you like I'm never gonna see you again." I'm sure he means that he's going to have dirty, kinky sex, but when I hear that line I can only think that it's Kid Rock and he's gonna fuck her badly and not worry about it.

Agree? Disagree?

I'm kinda hoping he'll develop a commitment to it.

If only to keep my back safe.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

That's how it should be. I've never had a longterm partner who couldn't protect my back. In fact, certain people recently failing to want to really ticked me off, and my team leader is making some necessary changes.

::There's a big question that Schu wants to ask about the developing a commitment but knows Dick doesn't really want to contemplate.::

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

Oh, he's saved me once already! ...when I screwed up. I know I can trust him when it's down to the wire, there's no question there.
Just wonder if he'd want more than that.

*no no, no doubled-meaning there at alll*

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh. Well. Showing him more should help answer that!

::Nope. No doubled meanings heard.::

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

Good to hear someone in the biz agree. *grin* He definitely cares- about me, I mean, he's... changed a lot of things in his life to accomodate me.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Compromise and accommodation are the keystones to a good relationship. If some people I know learned that, they'd be getting less rejection.

::Schu keeps in mind that Dick really wouldn't appreciate having a vengeful orange-haired shadow busting on everyone Schu didn't think treated Dick right, and when had Schu become people's gun-toting mother anyway?::

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

*warm laughter* Yeah- I agree, if you can't work out a compromise with your partner, you're not partners.
me and Bruce... yeah, we're partners. *a fond grin*

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

A partner you can rely on is more precious than gold. On the lookout for one of those for myself.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

I'd offer to try to pick someone out for you, but my luck is pretty piss-poor, generally.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Man, I'm a telepath, and my luck's been for shit, so hey.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

Well. Somebody in the biz, apparently somebody who's nice... what else should I be looking for, then?

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Chemistry. You know, like how some people click immediately while others hate each other on sight. You don't know that until you interact.

Somebody who takes up the slack on your weaker spots, while your strong points fill in their problem areas. Sum being greater than its parts. That's ideal.

Somebody you can be clear with. You know each other's values and what's most important. You don't want someone where you'll be surprised by how they are in the field, so you have to be able to talk to this person and know this person will talk to you without things turning into a festival of passive-aggression.

Given more time, I'll think up other stuff. ::smile::

Preferred gender? Traits of appearance you especially favor, like how I totally go for wait no I am not saying that.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Heh. Appearance and gender would be distant considerations after personality and talents. Besides, my tastes are broad.

It's a sweet idea, but the person would have to be able to survive getting fragged by my enraged team members. There's the psycho who shoots lightning, licks knives, doesn't feel pain, thinks he's in love with me, and doesn't take no for an answer on one side, and my very possessive team leader wondering how the hell I decided I had the clearance to work with someone he didn't pick himself on the other. Some days I barely keep the balance within the team as it already is. Bringing someone else in would make it even more volatile.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

...heheh. Uhm, let's just note that I'm glad I'm not turning up on that then.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I'd love to moonlight with you. Just not in my reality where my team would ever find out. You can see how I'm not ending up with a new, permanent, reliable partner this way.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

OH I WAIT THAT'S UH- right. Partner in not-crime. Gotcha.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I don't have sex with everyone I work with. ::smirk:: Farfarello has been experiencing that for the last six months.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

Mmm-hmmmn.

I was ah-uhm thinking something other than partner-in-the-workplace.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. I'm being polite and not reading your mind so I'm really not sure what you're talking about at the moment.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

I uh meant- romantic partner, you read me as meaning working partner.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

::wistful:: Ah. The two were the same for me for a long time, so...

You know how hard it can be keeping a civilian as your romantic partner when you're in the biz. Add being a mindreading freak to that.

[dickgrayson.livejournal.com]

Yeah- that's why I said 'so in the biz, obviously', way back there.
*nervous chuckle*

Uhm, well. Your turn to be awkwardly complimented again? Uhm. From all I see of you, I'm really surprised that there's anything in your way on the romance front.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Things are great on the casual sex front. I'm attractive, they're attractive, and they never have to get to know me aside from how I'm the most intuitive lay they've ever had.

Getting serious and longterm means letting people know and getting the recoil when they find out what I can do. I can be "polite" with friends and block myself off from reading them, but for a loved one, someone I want to spend a lot of time, the rest of my life, with? I can't. It's like... imagine a lover saying that you have to wear earplugs around and could never touch him or her ever because what you are is really scary and skeevy. That's how it is.

I'm also manic and somewhat nuts. Doesn't help.

There aren't a lot of people like me in my world, and we tend to hide so it's not like we have a dating service. When my team destroyed Eszett, all the talents who'd been abused by them ran like hell.

Your shoes are a pair I wouldn't want to walk in, man.

And before the Nexus, I honestly don't think there was a soul I would've said that about.
