truthfully, i've been thinking a lot about hakkai and gojyo's dynamic tonight!

this contrast in particular gets me somehow. well, these two things actually happen fairly far apart from eachother, but there's something about the way hakkai describes finding the state of their home after kanan's kidnapping contrasted by the fact that when hakkai is confronted with someone out for his life, gojyo actually DOES feel something like a sixth sense for the danger hakkai is in.
really, that sort of thing remains constant in their relationship from this point up until the present. hakkai might share more explicit and serious conversations with sanzo, but the constant awareness of danger—the noticing!—is a trait that is unique to his relationship with gojyo.
hakkai returns the favor a couple times. in burial, he manages to arrive at the right time and place to save gojyo from banri's 'creditors', and then much later he's the first to notice, incidentally, when gojyo develops a youkai mark.
gojyo does this right back to hakkai, too, at the start of the chin yisou arc. he's the first to both notice and take action on hakkai's turbulent mood over chin yisou's presence and recent actions.
anyway, it's not like there's any new information in this post, but their bond was on my mind.
