YORU'S MINT CANDY

懒得见人的Yoru从裂隙中走过,往Chamber屁股上的裤袋里戳了一条薄荷糖,顺手给他外表平平无奇内里却能把人夹死的扁屁股来了一巴掌。

Lazily walking through the rift, Yoru poked a peppermint candy into Chamber's back pocket, made a heavy slap on his flat outside but tight inside arse, then continued his wandering.

薄荷糖Yoru不想吃,难吃,上次他在聚会上被分了一颗,结果看着晶莹剔透, 吃起来却只有麦芽糖的甜味,甚至浓到盖过了薄荷油的味道。Yoru恶心到当着人家的面把糖呸进厨余垃圾桶,不过似乎并没有被当事人注意到,Chamber笑呵呵地从口袋里捻出来的那颗糖就是证明。

Yoru just hated its terrible taste. He had recived one at the earlier welcoming party of Chamber. The candy was crystal clear while maltose was nearly its only taste, thick enough to drown out the spicy flavor of mint oil. Yoru was so disgusted, that he immediately spat it into the trash bin in front of his Protocal friends. Yet his fierce objection didn't seem to be noticed, that same kind of the candy granted to this happy Frenchman serves the prove.

确实,Chamber也觉得它作为一颗薄荷糖实在太甜了。薄荷油可以下得更重一点,最好像Yoru自以为的那样:没有一滴糖浆,全都是火辣辣的薄荷油。

可是那又怎样。他把糖条戳出自己的嘴,让它被室温晾得更凉又吮回嘴口腔。难道只是变辣就能使食物避免被吃了么?虽然Chamber更喜欢甜食,但是那些只是闲来无事的午后慵懒的消遣。唯有辣味和痛觉才能让他猛然惊醒,喉尖呼啸的凉风再次给予他生命。

Indeed, Chamber himself had found it too sweet to be a MINT candy. They could have added more mint oil to make it more pungent, just as Yoru thought of himself: Not a single drop of syrup, 100 percents spicy oil.

100%, then what? Chamber poked the candy out of his mouth, sinking it into the cold air, then sucked the little cool bar back to play it with his tongue. Can a candy avoid being eaten just by being spicy?

Chamber did prefer sweets. but those were just mild entertainments in the afternoon. He need something fierce to jolt the sleepy him awake, to make his virgin throat feel pain. Harsh wind howled in through every inhale, only by such cold could he confirm his solid existence again.

他真的很喜欢薄荷的辣,虽然很普通但是无处不在,并且味道安安稳稳,从来没什么惊喜。熟悉的味道每次都提醒他现在该做什么。Yoru也一样,时不时消失,需要时出现,有一下没一下突然掐你屁股,让你忍不住反省自己:是否真的和他一样无聊,或许今天还有什么事情没做?而今天Yoru果然还是一如既往,除了给了Chamber一颗他不想要的糖。

He really liked the spice of mint. Common, inflexible, but both could be advantages. Common, known as ubiquitous, means facile and economical. Also, even though it could hardly bring surprise, it helped remind Chamber to get back to his business, as an awakening warning scent. Yoru was no different, his fixed schedule including disappearing at anytime, appearing whenever he's needed, and sometimes a pinch of other's butt from behind, warmly reminding the victim: Do not become this idle boy, there's much to do today. Today's Yoru was really as always, except sparing a candy he wanted the least.

连麦芽糖的香气也逐渐散去,现在该做什么呢?他捻着糖纸发现并不干净,想了想打算去买一包糖,晚些时候去给Yoru尝尝。那不是薄荷糖但是他很喜欢,以至于现在就打算去买。希望Yoru能够收下,而不是像上次一样嫌弃地唾进垃圾桶,因为每次一这样Chamber就会忍不住,然后每次都把Yoru弄得发狂。但是他真的忍不住,也许他爱的不是Yoru本人,反而是除了那以外他所有的作为。

他站着想,愈发觉得自己很可怕,突然发现手上糊满了糖,幸好没有弄脏手套。他凑着糖纸深深吸了吸气,浅浅的薄荷味钻进鼻腔,与食道深处反上来的凉气相撞。Chamber记起了他现在应该干什么,动身去买自己真的很喜欢的那种糖。

With the taste of maltose finally faded as well, Chamber found he forgot what to do again. He randomly rubbing the plastic wrapper, which turned out to be quite sticky, decided at last that he buy some candies for Yoru. It's not peppermint flavor but he liked it as well, in fact he likes it so much that he was heading for it right now. Hopefully Yoru would take it and not spit it like BEFORE, because every time when Yoru refused to behave, Chamber couldn't help driving Yoru crazy at last. He knew it's not that good but he just lost control. Maybe it's not Yoru the Japanese Protocal agent he loved, more like all these adorable deeds and cute dones from a person called "Yoru"...

He stood thinking, as feeling slightly horrible and pervert-ish of himself. Suddenly he found his fingers polluted with melting syrup by his hard crushing on the little plastics, but fortunately his gloves remained unstained. He inhaled, deeply in front of Yoru's candy paper. The light smell of mint screeched into his nose, collided with the cool air upcoming from deep in his esophagus -- Pungent and cold. Now Chamber recalled what he should be doing lately, he thus set out, to buy the very candy he really liked a lot.
