Toblerone fic: Supercilious Pillow Talk

or Longing for the Blue Lagoon

Supercilious Pillow Talk
by
K.C.D.L. (AKA Toblerone)


It is morning, a man and a woman lie in bed together facing each other.

“What are you looking at me like that for?” she asks.

“Ah, umm, I don’t want to say, it’s silly…”

“Go on, tell me,” she pleads.

He opens his mouth, hesitates, closes it, opens it again and then says:

“Okay. I think you have very sexy eyebrows.”

She considers this.

“That is….really a very weird thing to say. Personally I think they could do with a pluck.”

“Oh no, I love your eyebrows the way they are!”

“That was rather emphatic. You really think my disgusting hairy eyebrows are sexy?”

“They aren’t disgusting and hairy. I honestly think most girls over-pluck their eyebrows.”

“You seem to have thought about this a lot. Oh god, I’m dating an eyebrow fetishist aren’t I?”

“I am not a fetishist. It’s not like you’ve got a couple of caterpillars up there. It isn’t like I’ve got a thing for Frida Kahlo or anything. Yours are just more natural looking than most girls, I like that.”

“Oh, well maybe I should stop shaving my legs and pits as well?”

“No, I wouldn’t go quite that far. You always have to take a compliment and twist it around. I knew I shouldn’t have said anything.”

“Frankly I’m glad you did. Now I know what I’m dealing with here: an eyebrow-crazed sexual deviant!”

There is a short silence.

“Do you still love me anyway?”

“Maybe. I think so. I think I can learn to live with it. I’ll feel weird if I catch you staring at my eyebrows though.”

“I’ll stare at your breasts then, will that make you happy?”

“Yes, yes it would,” she pauses “Who the hell is Frida Kahlo?”

“She was a famous mono-browed nymphomaniac.”

“Oh, the one Selma Hayek played, I remember now. Well I wouldn’t mind looking like Selma.”

“Nah, I like you better. Your boobs are smaller.”

“So I’ve got hairy eyebrows and small boobs, is that what you’re saying? You’re not painting a very attractive picture here.”

“Umm, I think it’s time we got up and made breakfast.”

“Okay, but don’t think you’ve wheedled your way out of this conversation.”

“No ma’am.”

“I really think we need to get to the bottom of this psychosis.”

“Yes ma’am.”

Miles away in his semi-preserved childhood bedroom, a poster of a young Brooke Shields curls slightly.

You still got it!  This is great.  Was it real, or did you just make a no win situation (they always are when talking to a woman) very humorous?

No, I just made it up. I just started with idea of a guy giving his girlfriend a weird compliment and the rest sort of wrote itself. I'm glad you liked it.

Hehe...I liked this. I don't really take compliments well, so I do usually twist them around to make them sound bad, or something funny out of them. Maybe I need to stop doing that....hmm....

You're a beautiful human Sal I'm glad I wrote something you could relate to. Thanks.

I was just thinking about girl's eyebrows and how similar the eyebrows of most girls I've liked are. The idea of telling a girl how much I liked their eyebrows made me chuckle, so I wrote this on the off-chance someone else might find it amusing. I came so close to not writing it. I'm glad you liked it.

I've had real conversations like this before. For the most part, they ended badly for me.

Good writing, by the way and a good laugh too.

I think 99 times out of 100 it turns out badly for the bloke. We aren't built to win conversations that involve deep seated female insecurities.

It's cool it turned out to be somewhat realistic. Actually I've had conversations sort of like this too, but this wasn't based on any of them.

Good writing, by the way and a good laugh too.


Score!

Eyebrow fetishists got nothing on my Husband. He likes hairy armpits on woman, says they resemble little pussies.


hahahahaha...oh god. Now should I ask you the obvious question, or should I just leave it a mystery...I'm not sure I really want to know.

Cute story, me likes!


Thanks whippy.

I tried to grow 'em for a while, but it was just too gross.


I'm glad to hear you have your limits

...and kudos for guessing the question I had in mind correctly and not regaling me with attempted armpit penetration anecdotes!

haha I think if guy commented on my eyebrows I'd probably be embarassed since I do nothing to them. Then I'd probably laugh and compliment his. Nice story~

You'd make the guy in my story (and consequently a small part of me) very happy.

Nice story~Charissa


Thank you.

I always look at a woman's eyebrows. For the very good reason that they're exactly the same color as her pubic hair...

And what's wrong with unshaved armpits? Have you not heard of armpit sex? Interesting, but requires a certain athleticism on the part of the participants. As well as a stable surface to work on.

Then you need to take a closer look at mine, Sweetheart. They are almost white, while my pubic hair is red.~slap slap slap~


Yep, that's going in the next edition of Joe User trivial pursuit for sure.
