[ And Yuui poops from his ass, yet that doesn't keep Yael from sticking his dick up there, does it? ]

Sometimes a disgusting place is exciting.

[ Anyway. Yuui sits back and looks at his menu, humming thoughtfully as he makes his selection. Finally, he points to something. ]

What about this? Hashweh?

[ He glances up at Yael. Did he say it right? (No, he was only kind of right.) ]

Hashweh, huh?

[Yael leans in, squinting upside down at Yuui's menu.]

Looks hearty enough. What are you trying to say?

[That he's a big beefy man who can only eat rice and meat?? Yuui isn't wrong, but damn, he doesn't have to be so right.]

[ Yeah, actually, that’s what he’s trying to say. ]

A man like you needs something nice and filling to stay nice and beefy.

[ Heh. With a smirk, he taps his foot against Yael’s shin. Even his calves have some heft. ]

Oh, and it looks good enough for me to steal off of your plate.

[ After all, Yael has resigned himself to letting The Wife eat his food. ]

So you do have ulterior motives. I should've known.

[smh my head.................. The waiter swings by and Yael places their order. In addition to the food, Yael also orders two drinks for them: Italian hot chocolate and a tall glass of ayran.]

I'll have to take you back home some day. That'll give me an excuse to make a trip back and let the old man know I'm still alive.

Old man? Care to tell me about this person?

[ Who knew Yael was keeping such heavy secrets from him?! For shame...

But Yuui doesn't mind, instead taking a long sip of the water that's been dropped off for them before they get their other drinks. ]

The man who adopted me. It's complicated, to put it lightly.

[...But knowing Yuui won't be inclined to like the man once he knows more about him, Yael's just gonna come out and say it:]

He's the man who enlisted me in the service. If I wanted to live with him, I had no other choice but to learn how to look after myself.

[ He messes with the straw wrapper still on the table, tearing it to little bits and pieces. ]

...How do you feel about him?

[ At least he's being nice and asking this before saying he hopes the man is dead. ]

[Yael closes his eyes, exhaling a long, long sigh.]

Dunno. I don't love him, but I don't hate him either. He adopted me and gave me a place to live and food to eat, so how could I?

[Realistically, Yael knows he owes the man nothing, but it's a much more complicated affair on reality. Severing ties with the only parent you've ever known? That's easier said than done no matter what abuses they've entreated you to.]

...I get it.

[ And he's well aware of how that sort of thing works. Someone gives you stability while taking it away at the same time. His foster parents provided him a home while at the same time trying to slyly send him to conversion therapy.

But, he at least had a bed. ]

It's a complicated thing. When you go see him, I can accompany you. [ A pause. ] If you want.

[The idea of Yuui meeting Him is... hm. Yael pauses, hums, fishing up Yuui's hand in the bath and fiddling with his fingers.]

Can you promise you won't provoke him? That man is not one you want to argue with.

...I'll try not to.

[ Taking another piece of bread, Yuui wonders what Yael's "father" might act like if he's so worried about Yuui trying to provoke him. ]

You could have a little more faith in me.

[Pouring oil on a fire is generally inadvisable. It's not Yuui he's concerned about, but he does have to put his foot down with m'lady to head off any misunderstandings.]

You're not the one I worry about. Call me crazy, but I don't think you'll see eye-to-eye with the man who forced me into the military.

...Probably not. I already have negative feelings for him.

[ So maybe he actually can't promise he won't start a fight. Yuui uses a sip of water as an excuse to give it a little more thought. ]

I wonder if it would be best for me to stay back, then.

[Yael gives it some thought himself, idly chewing on a piece of stuffed flatbread.]

I'd like you to come with me to Egypt regardless. Outside of his temper, he's also pretty traditional.

[Which, considering the conversation they just had outside of the restaurant...]

...I want to keep you safe. I don't trust that man will share that sentiment.

...Right.

[ He doesn't need to be told more than "traditional" to get it. Yuui's fingers twitch as he tries to decide on bread or more water before he reaches for some bread of his own. ]

I can't exactly hide my stereotypical behavior. I've never been able to. So... I'll listen to you and say back, just this once.

[ Yuui's mannerisms and the fact that they're traveling together will be a dead giveaway. He knows it. ]

[Yael smiles, grateful that Yuui is willing to suck it up and leave arguing with daddy dearest off the table. He reaches his foot out beneath the table to rub the side of Yuui's leg.]

Save all that stereotypical behavior for me. I'll eat it right up.

[He enjoys his little sassy gay twink, thank you very much.]

[ He laughs, holding back from any escalation to that little leg rub because he has a feeling Yael wouldn't want a footjob in the middle of a restaurant.

Also, because there's something about Yael making it up to him or whatever. That too. ]

I'm a little surprised you like that so much.

[Nah, but he can totally footjob him on the drive back home. Yael won't mind that at all.]

Really? Next you'll accuse me of being straight.

[He's always had a Specific Type Of Guy that he favors, but that's largely unexplored territory given how long he was in an exclusive relationship with a woman.]

[ That would require some flexibility... maybe roadhead instead. ]

I kind of thought you were at first, actually.

[Roadhead works too. Make it sloppy.]

You're wrong, but I don't blame you. I project that "straight guy" energy, don't I?

[Gasp. Self-awareness.]

You really do. At least you're aware.

[ Much in the same way Yuui is aware of his own energy. ]

How long have you known? What kind of guys always caught your attention?

[ He's genuinely curious about Yael's experience, which is surely to be completely different from his own. Long term relationships tend to do that, after all. ]

Hard to say. I couldn't discuss it with anyone, for one thing. For another, I was thinking more about the future with my ex.

[In other words, he has to really wrack his brain on this one. Hmm.]

I like attitude. Sassiness. Blonds are pretty hot too.

[All of this screams straight man.]

[ God, it sure fucking does. Yuui has to hold himself back from making a face at Yael. ]

...What's your type in women?

[ He's trying to see something. ]

Sexy.

[Stop? He sees what you're trying to do here??]

I never had much time to think about that either. I like the same qualities in both men and women.

Sassy blondes with attitude, then? Oh, and busty.

[ He remembers that, Yael. He'll never forget it. ]

What was your fiancee like?

[ Yuui eyes him, wondering if he should even be asking that. Is it too soon...? ]
