It's Called "Telepathy"

"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

"I'm just glad Crawford figured that out somewhere along the line."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Me too. If he still wanted to take over the world I'd have to help him and be his right-hand man throughout.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. It's generally not boring to work for him." Nagi's current assignment is something of a fluke.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Which is one of the reasons I stick around.

Did Crawdad give you any idea how long you have to babysit the little bastard?

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"Through the whole thing with the Academy. And I think it might be a while since he's currently agonizing about sending Balinese off to Germany or Vienna or whereever that other school is."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Ach, wah wah. What a crybaby. He's gonna send Yotan to Europe and break his team prostitute to pieces, and he knows it.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"He might not. There is that damn wish to consider." Nagi sighs. "I think that's part of the problem, and possibly the reason Crawford got so pissy over things."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I can see why Brad would be pissed, but it amuses the hell out of me.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

Nagi nods. "I think that it's his top pick, but he can't do it because of the wish. There are other agents he can send. I mean, he is going to send Ken. Since Crawford had found a way for me to not work for Persia before the wish..." Nagi hates being surrounded by german speakers. It reminds him of places he would rather not be.

::It's Schu's native language, so....::

The wish happened a while ago, though. Brad's hasn't gotten an update of the reconfigured future yet?

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

Nagi likes his German. It's the rest of them he can live without. He hears german in a lot of his nightmares.

"I'm sure he has, but all he's told me is that it's my mess, so I have to fix it."

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

The man is way too tight-lipped.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"He's a dickhead." Cranky Nagi is cranky!

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't argue with you on that one! ::Would Nagi like a snuggle?::

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

A snuggle would be a step in the right direction. "I don't think most people would. Sometimes it sucks that he's so good at what he does." A kid has to rebel against his parents sometimes, right?

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

::snuggle!:: If he weren't good at it, no one would let him get away with his shit.

::Schu totally thinks some teen rebellion is good for Nagi. It's a necessary developmental milestone! And Brad so deserves it.::

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

Nagi smiles slightly. "Next time I yell at him, I'll have to call him a prima donna." Yay snuggles!

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

He probably won't be insulted by it.

You're so good to snuggle. ::Schu's own Nagi doesn't snuggle unless he's high on afterglow or very sleepy.::

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"If you compare me to small fluffy animals, I will punch you in the kidney." Um, that was Nagi-ese for thanks. This Nagi usually prefers those conditions, but he'll make exceptions for a handful of people under the right conditions.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

No punching necessary. I wouldn't want to do to small fluffy animals the things I love to do with you. ::Schu appreciates it!::

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"Like the killing sprees and ice cream binges?"

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and the sex.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"Oh yeah. That's great, isn't it? We should go do that now." See, Schu totally brought it up this time, not Nagi.

[tastes-of-honey.livejournal.com]

::snickers:: I'm game.

[killwithmymind.livejournal.com]

"I think it's your turn to host." Kiss?
