Watanuki, for all of his people skills, was a fairly solitary creature. He enjoyed the silence and lack of demands when he was alone and not being chased by random malevolent ghouls that wanted to eat him or posses him or whatever it was that they wanted to do. Those spirits were one of the reasons that people thought he was insane and also one of the reasons he treasured his time without the presence of others. Without spirits or other human beings he could relax and be himself, free from the pressure, danger, and the revilement that they thought he couldn't hear.
Doumeki liked being alone so that he didn't have to hear the complaining and abusive nature humans took towards each other. He didn't enjoy talking and communicating with others, opting instead to keep the company of his thoughts and instincts. The only people's companionship he truly desire was Watanuki's and sometimes Kunogi's (sure the girl was nice but she wasn't as amusing as Watanuki).
People weren't his forte but when it came to protecting the seer, there was no one that could do a better job. As for Watanuki, while he enjoyed the company of others he often sought the comforts of his own special brand of meditation (cooking and cleaning) or the sometimes silent Doumeki (the boy was daft but he knew Watanuki's moods).

I've been forgetting about this while I wrote it and I know that all of you who review will ask about it when you get there, but for those of you who stick around to read only I found the prompts. I repeat; I have found the prompts! I had them on saved on another document. Go me!! So I didn't have to go hunting for them on livejournal. Happy times. :D Anyways, I'm slightly sad that I only got one review last chapter... :(
