Devilish Dante

Have to admit, last night was pretty surreal and I don't think I've actually gotten over it yet. Unsurprisingly, duty called him away - the ever-productive factory that's open almost all hours unfortunately! - before he could bare his soul and spill more delicious secrets.

But before all that, I typed my first post online while someone was actually sitting right behind me watching - well actually glued to the television screen. But he wasn't oblivious to the fact that I was downloading soft gay porn while typing my blog. The half naked men flashing intermittently on my screen was a dead giveaway after all.

As Big Bicep Barry's mind wandered off during certain staggeringly slow scenes on Brokeback, he did make some comments.

Barry : What's that you're doing?
Paul : Downloading gay porn.
Barry : Very funny. Thought you were writing that blog of yours? Where is it?
Paul : It has indiscriminate details of my life including you. I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you.
Barry : Might be worth it. ( pause ) Oh wait, what did Ennis say? Rewind that part!

Come on, it's not all bleak drama. But certainly better lines than the cheesy gay soap opera / thriller series I've been watching. Still, Dante's Cove is like one of those horribly tacky, cheesy snacks that naughty boys like me just can't get enough of. All of us have our own weaknesses - dumb plots with cute boys are mine. ( Barry's fatal Kryptonite is fried chicken but that's something else entirely! )

After all, it isn't often we see oiled, muscular guys slamming each other against the shower room walls on mainstream television. Unlike plain porn though, there is actually a paper-thin plot - and some pitiful high-school acting - tying all the naked boys cut scenes together. Vengeful witches and cheating men in the past leave a lasting impression on the present hotel in Dante's Cove where suspiciously good-looking men converge to shed their scanty clothes baring impossibly perfect, perpetually sweat-slicked bodies.

Makes you wanna run out - go crash dieting, enroll for a gym membership and get a tummy tuck! Seriously. Beautiful bodies abound.

Come lick my neck!
Now, doesn't that make you want to tune in...

Of course I didn't offer to share Dante's Cove with Barry - although if I'd known his reaction to Brokeback earlier, I'd have given him a sneak preview just to raise a response of any sort. As freakishly cheesy as it is anyone but a freaking fag would hate the series. I'm a bloody snoop after all - and a recurring mystery only serves to drive me slowly, maddeningly insane.

Maybe the next time he comes around?

Musang said...

closetalk darlin', i haven't watch brokeback either... that makes the two of us.

read the short story though. nice. but couldn't understand the style of writing... fucking different.

and paul... does barry not have other guy friend? he is soo in the closet babe... i could feel...

Alex said...

Guess what, maybe he has been reading your blog all this while...

I am so crossing my fingers you get the man....and if anyone steps in your way....I'll ship you a letter opener.

That was a cliff-hanger when he said that "might be worth." But hey, if his interest in what Ennis had to say is any indication, there might be a silver lining for you and BBB after all, doing all those things the guys of Dante's Cove do. Can't wait!

I have never seen Dante's Cove, but I would really like to. I don't know that we even have a network here that carries it. Damn it all! I guess I'll have to live my life vicariously through you!! Luv ya man! :)

Just Me said...

One of these days I expect to read your happy ending with BBB. He is probably gay, just tell him how you feel.

Maximus Leo said...

I can feel it in the air.....BBB is waiting for your move mate! So go for the kill.......

Cheers, Ian

Well you cracked the 'age' mystery, Paul, so I'm sure you'll tease some response out of him on this one. It does sound like it's worth showing him some of Dante's Cove next time he's around.

Alex - if Barry's read this blog already, then surely he must have rumbled what's going on. OTOH, perhaps that's a contributing factor to why he's approaching coming out now, heheh.

Paul, you didn't leave Barry in the room by himself while the computer was on, did you??

dantes cove was a nice show, i hope that they will have a dvd set and the song as well... grr i havent seen that

akihisa said...

I think I seriously need to check out Dante's Cove now. I've heard of the show before but was never interested in it because if you wanna watch hot naked guys, hardcore is the way to go. For someone who's "still a kid", I'm a perv ! LOL !!!!!

BBB is really asking for it, you know ?! I don't think he knows how close it is for you to jump on his bone. Hehe ! And you, Paul, shouldn't get this matter settled already. Ask him point blank which side of the fence he's on. If it's not the way you hope it would be, just joke around about it. I maybe naive but I don't care. ;p

did u actually told barry that you "donwloading gay porn"?
n he don't mind at all about it?

that remind me..i was at low yat that day with my soulmate, n he ask me to accompany him to this shop with a hidden room where you can get soft n hardcore gay porn.

the thing is, i feel totally disgusted being inside the room.
donno why. it just weird. i left him alone n wondering around doing some thinking. maybe im not as PLU as i thought I am. but I still have a hard on looking at naked guy in real life..

..but the gay porn thing is so unreal..so fake n cold...need something warm to turn me upside down. u should ask barry to do the same instead of dowloading something that is not even there when the real thing is already inside your room!!

ça va pas la tête said...

Paul, I think Barry is asking you to make your move to him. The part where u said he is worth killing for is soooo *ahem ahem*

way to go!

Paul dear. I have to agree with Boy. It overdue long time ago.

Wish me luck too..going out diner with A tonite. Hopefully we will end up on my bed..ha.ha...

Jay said...

Hey why don't you take a photo of him and show us what he looks like?

He doesn't even have to be (completely) naked.

"I'd have given him a sneak preview just to raise a response of any sort."

Are we thinking about the same kind of response? *Wicked grin*

savante said...

Why haven't you seen it, closetalk!

Fuck me or fuck off? Haven't reached that stage yet, chowhofun.

But musang, wasn't the short story just as great as the movie?

I'd faint from the shock, alex, if that was true :)

Brian, get me the letter opener :) Make it sharp.

Anything could happen, mark.

LIve vicariously through me, rob? You should be living vicariously through Chris Evans!

We can all hope, cr and ian.

ru, he was sitting behind me while I was surfing online.

Doubt we'd get that series over here - far too obscure, n. armstrong.

pakcik, I did tell him all that. :)

cava, worth killing for? I meant that if I told him that secret, I'd have to kill him.

Soap operas never do end, do they, boy?

And jay, boy is right. Wouldn't dare just post his picture online!

Jamie, never saw it that way but hey! :)

Paul
