It's Called "Telepathy"

[tastes_of_honey]

"If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence."
-- George Eliot, Middlemarch

"Nah. That just means it's a good massage. And cabana boys are supposed to always be around when you wake up. 'Least that's what i've learned from porn."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I hadn't realized that was part of the cabana boy contract.

Yohji nods. "No one ever reads the fine print."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

But this is a happy thing. Fine print usually doesn't hide the good things.

"Maybe they don't think it's so good. It's probably tiring."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

That might not be so good for the cabana boys, but it sounds great for the customer.

[wireboundheart.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. You should totally go back to your boss and demand cabana boys. And then tell me what the look on his face is like."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

He's gotten to the point where it takes a hell of a lot from me to get a reaction from him. Familiarity and all. It's sad.

[wireboundheart.livejournal.com]

"Tragic even. But if that's the case, he should be completely ready to supply you with cabana boys on demand."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

He thinks my taste for things like cabana boys is frivolous and over the top.

Yohji sniffs in distain. "Some people just have no appreication for the finer things in life."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Agreed. Somehow he can see the future but can't understand that about us.

"Can you just tell him you're going on vacation?"

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

He'd want to know when I'm coming back! Unless he foresees it and then tries to manipulate it.

[wireboundheart.livejournal.com]

"I suppose 'when I damn well feel like it' isn't going to fly as an answer?"

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I've done that. It tends to lead to huge fights until I leave the room. Then he's actually hunted me down.

[wireboundheart.livejournal.com]

Yohji raises an eyebrow. "Sounds more like a possessive lover than a boss, doesn't he?"

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

He's been that too! He's possessive in general, but since I'm his minion and his occasional lover he's more so about me.

We actually used to be closer until he did some things that really ticked me off and then couldn't even apologize for it properly.

"And you still don't get regular vacations? I bet you have lousy dental, too."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

No regular vacations. The dental and health are good, though.

[wireboundheart.livejournal.com]

"At least he does some stuff right." Yohji is rather miffed on his friend's behalf.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

::That's very sweet.::

In his own way, he cares for me. He's just a limited person. ::Frustratingly so. Schu still can't forget or forgive how Brad froze over on him after the threat to his brain had been fixed. Or how Brad chose some idea of what kind of Schwarz he wanted over Schu's mental safety by keeping Farfarello.::

"I guess people get pretty fucked up in our line of business." Yohji knows he's an incredible one-night-stand, but he's still not totally sure why Aya is so willing to keep him.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Eszett made sure we were fucked up even before they had us killing people. A lot of the people I see semi-regularly are self-centered and/or can't admit to having any softer feelings for me. It's frustrating. I like to feel loved, just like most people, and it means something to me if the person I'm with is willing to say it.

::Aya being with this Yohji makes a hell of a lot more sense than him being with the other two Yohjis in his life.::

"Ever try to convince him to see a shrink?" The idea amuses Yohji, but hell, his shrink has actually helped him out.
