2.2 Fashion


Atom stuffed the tie into his pocket.
Cajones licked his flank, “Choices you make about the stuff that you wrap around yourself are no concern of mine,” he drew his legs under himself, stood and arched his back, this action being severely restricted by the ceiling, which creaked in protest (ceilings have feilings too).
“In fact…” Cajones paused to breathed out a long (and relaxed) breath, a breath which, warm against Atom’s face, caused him to wrinkle his nose “catbreath”.
“In fact, I really don’t give a shit whether you wear the tie or not; it’s all the same to me: I have a fur coat that, while not to everyone’s taste, being, as it is, ginger, nevertheless is that well tailored that it covers all of me (Up to and including my balls and excluding, for very valid reasons, my nose, eyes ears and anus).”
“Yeah but you don’t have a tie do you?”
“No…”
“I could sell you this one… it would go well against the white patch at your throat and would contrast nicely with your eyes.”

And nipples! It doesn't cover his nipples!

Cats with ties? Puts a new meaning in "tuxedo cat," doesn't it? Then again, it might not be a bow tie.

I apologize for my mood today. Lots of overpriced coffee.

... and not to mention his anus( you know, it would contrast nicely with ... hmmm, ok never mind)

this is delightful; so glad you are continuing with this totally warped tale; although , i have to say, the characters do put me in mind of some co -workers.

Jeff: I didn't want to overthink the catsuit. Without coffee there would be no daylight.

Harlequin: funny you should mention co-workers, they do begin to appear in section 4 (coming soon)
