H Flint

[askflint]

Hello! This is an askblog for my mouthwashing OC Flint! You may have heard about him from Ask-Captain-Anya and Ask-Nurse-Curly's blogs if you have been following them!

This blog isn't a sister blog of theirs really, and I created this as some way for Flint to cope with the current storyline in their AU. I am currently writing this as Magpie's Roleswap AU but I may change in the future. It is not set in stone.

Roleswap AU Tag

Info and Rules under cut:

Currently set post Pony Express, Flint is a firefighter for the local city.

His Crew were Captain Hudson, Rocky the Mechanic and Beccs the Nurse.

#Flintsays will be used for his posts but #Modsays is anything out of character.

In this vein anything that is [In brackets like this] is what I may be adding as the mod to a response.

OC's are welcome!

Most asks should be fine but I may not post if I feel uncomfortable with the contents. Though Flint's boundaries are not my own.

This will be updated, probably.

Does it hurt knowing Anya is moving on and getting a happily ever after?

She deserves it.

[askflint]

Goodnight.

[askflint]

[Mod: i think some time after the nurly capya blogs stop, I will change the blog to be set on the Brorac in Flint's universe because he was meant to be in more of a canon universe]

[askflint]

I don't think I'll be okay for a while, but.. its a step in the right direction.

[askflint]

When did you last talk to *her*?

...When she broke up with me.

[askflint]

Why am I doing this to myself.

*in tears* pLEASE swansea for the love of GOD dont listen to the haters 😭

(i know this meme got done a long time ago with swansea already but i needed to draw this ok)

[askflint]

wish you were barefoot and pregnant

Yeahhh I dont think I've slept enough because that is definitely not what you said.

[askflint]

How're your old crew doing? Still in contact with them? Thought you would've gotten slightly close to them in PE.

I'm not sure, it is hard to contact them. Rocky is in australia, Beccs, I'm not sure where she went and if i had my captains number then i think i would sign him up for every spam i could.

Flint,

I... Yes... Probably? I apologise. I have a tendency to do this sometimes... I get a bit lost in myself and my work and overexert myself until I crash, for lack of a better term. I have had to cover for a few people, and on top of my regular work, research, and whatnot things got a bit hectic. I did not realise I was proverbially burning the candle at both ends until my body rudely reminded me.

Everything feels rather floaty still, but I am better than I was! Just needed a long lie down. Sorry if that sounds silly... I know I am an adult after all.

I am glad to hear it. Work isn't too busy I hope. I hope you are getting adequate rest and looking after yourself, not to sound hypocritical of course. It would be nice to meet again when our schedules align.

- Ambrose

Please look after yourself, and definitely take that long lie down, I think you need it.

I understand, I was the same way with my piloting for PE and with this job really. it is a bad habit and hard to shake to say the least.

Sure, I'd like that. though I am not much company at the moment unfortunately.

[askflint]

Will you ever love again?

What a question... hah.

I highly doubt it. Some of us just aren't made for love I suppose.

[askflint]

Hi Flint,

I am so, so sorry. Opening my mobile revealed to me that I messaged you yesterday when I was not in the most... Coherent state. I deeply apologise for the confusion.

Anyway, how are you holding up?

Ambrose

I hope you're alright, you worried me a bit. Did you get enough rest now?

I am fine. Thank you.

[askflint]

[Mod: can i stop fucking reblogging art on here by accident]

[askflint]

Hey Flint !

My name's Steph, I'm friends with Anya and Curly. I can see their messages through my phone because of that dataleak, but now yours too I guess ? Don't worry tho, I'll keep it private.

I wanted to text you because I think you're cool, and I know bad stuff happened, so... give yourself some time, ok ? It really sucks, but you gotta try and be kind to yourself in times like these. I believe in you dude, hope everything gets better soon.

- Steph

Hello. I see.. I was meant to ask one of them about it but with what happened with Anya, I do not feel comfortable in that anymore. thank you, I suppose.

At least one of us believes.

The Edge

[askflint]

I don't know what led to this last night, but sitting at the edge, watching the water flow underneath me. I wonder

"Is this what he felt? Sitting there, watching his face in the water and his life go by?"

Is there any hope for me? Any hope for anyone really? I thought, I thought so desperately that this time would be different but I knew. I knew I would get hurt again and again. People always wonder why I don't let anyone in. It hurts so much when they go.

Sitting there... It felt so easy to just... let go.

They wouldn't notice. They wouldn't care. I'm a nobody to them.

A picture of her came up on my phone, I couldn't do it. Even after everything I couldn't do it.

What went wrong? Was it me?
