Cuddles for a Company
1. In Which Takuya Observes, Thinks and Plots
Takuya got the feeling that Kouichi was as new to the whole friends business as Kouji had been. Though he had a different way of showing it.
And Takuya was pretty sure he didn't want either twin knowing how he was mentally comparing them.
Though it made it easier to know what not to do with Kouichi to get him to open up. Or what to do.
Which was everything that had failed with Kouji, because the two were just different.
Not polar opposites. That was too clichéd, and probably wrong. Even though they had wound up with light and darkness which was quite possibly the biggest cliché of all.
But he'd already picked up on an important similarity between them. How closed off they were. How friendless. Even if they showed it in different ways. The stiff shoulders compared to the downcast ones. The cold floorboard eyes compared to the hollowed ones.
He'd gotten Kouji to open up.
He could get Kouichi to open up too.
Even if he was wrong. Which he doubted it. He tended to be pretty good at picking out the ones uncomfortable in company.
Which might or might not be because he tended to throw his company at others.
Which wasn't a bad thing at all.
