hello miss wibs i hope you are doing wonderful, u r now the mayor of higunana nation in my head now, so i bring u a little tidbit to share: higuruma who is too used to putting in too much effort for too little reward, and work bleeding into his personal hours. nanami who does what is needed and nothing more, and has strict boundaries for a healthy work life balance. higunana where nanami has rules for higuruma (d/s dynamic) because being relaxed is something foreign t o him, and nanami doesn't hesitate to punish if the other steps out of line. that includes reading documents after hours, cumming before he's allowed, etc etc.
i hope u can indulge with me in thinking about this because my god.. i think dom nanami with bottom higuruma is a national treasure
Oh wow I've never been a mayor before! Can we build some affordable Higunana nation housing and cut a ribbon with a giant pair of scissors? I've always wanted to do that.
But OKAY I am absolutely walking with you. I always imagined that if they were going to have one repeat argument/pressure point in their relationship, it would be around work and relaxation. Nanami, who is violently territorial of his free time, versus Higuruma who is all too used to giving it away and having none and seemingly being fine with that (couldn't be me, I get bitey when my relaxing time is interrupted).
And if Higuruma's self-sacrificing starts impeding on Nanami's free time as well (they were supposed to stay in and watch a movie, but off Hiromi goes to the office, goodbye! Now Kento's day is ruined) then I bet he'd establish a tight ship.
When you get home, mute your phone. Want to check just one last thing? It can wait until Monday, because we have a spread of breads and cheeses and wine that needs eating and obviously that's more important. No, you aren't allowed to come yet, you need discipline, you will wait.
I think Higuruma would be resistant to that sort of structure at first, he is a grown man, very principled and dedicated and would bristle at the prospect of being ordered about, because he is not a boy and Nanami is not his mother. But he can hardly argue with results when he finds he's sleeping better, the constant dread when his phone vibrates has faded, and he doesn't succumb to self-loathing at his lack of productivity from just sitting on the couch to breathe.
He would acclimate, and he would flourish beside someone who can screw (heh) his head on straight.
I mean, just look at him. Hopeless. He clearly needs a team to get that sorted out. I think we've got what it takes.
I've been feeling the Higunana symbiote taking over again, so maybe I'll write a little something of this sometime soon. Please...keep the yummy thoughts coming. My two favorite men are even better when they're in the same room.
