zack fair, as written by kit.

[atlaslain]

hello i know it’s been,, literally forever since i’ve been on here. the good news is, i have six weeks free and i’m wanting to get back into writing zack!

i wanna… gauge some interest here. 

if i were to move zack over to my multimuse ( @guiltscorched ), where i’ve been spending literally all of my time, would y’all still be happy to write with me? would you prefer me to keep him here as a single muse?

i just. can’t decide what to do with him. i’m feeling happy and comfy over on my multimuse dash and i always struggle to juggle blogs, but zack is my favourite boy and i want him to have attention still.

i guess just. what do y’all think?

i promise im going to be active here as soon as i can & pick up on plotting and threads ! zack’s just one of those muses i’ve been writing for such a long-ass time that sometimes i need tiny breaks to rejuvenate the muse, u feel? at the moment i’m a tiny bit more active over on my multi @guiltscorched

two and a half weeks ‘til work sets me free for the summer and then activity will pick back up hugely.

i hope smth nice happened to u all today. <3

@carnivorare said:  "why are you so concerned with trying to be a hero?"

          “we all gotta have dreams, right?” if there’s a defensive bite beneath the charm, it’s a meager thing: mostly concealed, mostly lending itself to a man apparently unconcerned with the line of questioning. “that’s all i’ve ever wanted to be, i guess. a hero.”

this isn’t the time to dwell, but his mind sweeps him back to childhood anyway: to a kid all bruised-up from yet another fight, clutching a torn-up shinra leaflet in his hands and feeling like he’d finally struck upon the thing he could be good at --- the thing he was meant to be. what scraps of childhood fantasy linger still are clutched just as tight as that old leaflet, as if letting go would mean admitting it was a long-shot of a dream all along.

zack pulls a grin to his face, crosses his arms over his chest. “why so interested?” the stranger’s --- well, a strange one. strange vibes. zack’s wary, but not enough to halt the conversation. “what’s your dream?”

ATLASLAIN’S PERMANENT STARTER CALL!

      in light of my lowered activity of late, i’ve been feeling a little disconnected from the dash and a little worried about taking too long to be here. this post is a little bit to ease those feelings, and a little bit to encourage interactions! within three weeks, i’ll be free for the entire summer and i intend to spent a lot of time here catching up on threads and plots and general getting to know you all.

so!

by liking this post, you encourage me to:

hop into your inbox at random times

like your starter calls & approach you for plotting

throw ideas your way for our muses

write you things

love u unconditionally

probably more but it’s 11pm and i impulse-made this post.

          unfamiliar   —      but   friendly   enough   !   the   perplexed   furrowing   of   his   brows   smooths   &.   he   loosens   his   fingers   on   the   materialization   of   his   heart   ,   kingdom   key   ,   so   that   it   flashes   with   sparklers   of   light   before   dispersing   .   hands   settle   against   his   skull   ,   fingers   interlocking   &.   muscles   relaxing   ,      “  mmhm   ,   that’s   me   !   but   how’d   you   know   ?   &.   who   are   you   ?   if   you   know   leon   .   .   .      are   you   the   committee   ,   too    ?  ”

          he’s seen keyblades before, but watching them disintegrate like that is still --- something. zack’s distracted, eyes on the last few fading sprinkles of light, ‘til the guy speaks up. “oh! yeah! i didn’t introduce myself.”

he’s up on his feet a moment later, hand outstretched. “zack. sorta joined the committee late. but i’ve listened to ‘em all go on about you enough to know who you are! they were hopin’ you’d drop by for a visit. wanted you to see how nice the town’s been fixed up since you were last here, i think.”

     ❝    Zack  !  W-Wait  a  —    ❞  How  fitting  ! To  be  whisked  away  by  this  WHIRLWIND  of  a  man.  (  a  cyclonic  affair  that  oft  left  the  youth  w a y w a r d  )  Cloud  himself  was  not   in  the  usual  uniform  attire.  A  simple  black  tee  &&  an  extra  pair  of  the  militia-standard  cargo pants  chosen.  Zack’s  words  were  almost  missed;  his  company  in  tow  concentrated  in  maneuvering  properly.  Once  comprehension  caught  up  with  still  STAGGERING  feet,  recollection  dawned.              

     ❝    What  about  the  others  ?     ❞  Once  the  question  slipped  past  barriers,  an  alarm  internally  did sound.  Cloud  could  kick  himself.  It  wasn’t  as  if  he  wished  the  ones  who  invited  themselves  that  day  in  Junon  to  actually  take  up  on  the  rather  generous  offer  of  the  other.          

          “the others?” frankly, he’d forgotten --- shoved it with all due aggression from his brain, because like hell is he gonna empty his wallet for a bunch’a freeloaders! ( he loves the squad, he really does, but they’re like rabid hyenas when there’s an opportunity for free food. ) 

he skids to a halt, cloud still in tow, and rubs his chin with his free hand. “uh... we can go back and get them, if y’want them here.” oh, he’s a dumbass, putting that offer on the table just in case cloud would enjoy it more if it weren’t just the two of them. “i don’t mind.” 

his wallet minds.

[atlaslain]

———  BASICS! ♡

NAME! ♡    kit PRONOUNS! ♡     she/they ZODIAC SIGN! ♡     capricorn TAKEN OR SINGLE! ♡     single

———  THREE  FACTS! ♡

1! ♡     i work as a receptionist in a primary school and i didn’t think that’d mean spending much time w/ the kids yet today i found myself accompanying a class on a walkabout with two kids dangling from each arm, all of them trying to tell me different stories. im tired. 

2! ♡     i have an absolute weakness for gacha games. dffoo, fire emblem heroes, bungou stray dogs: tol --- gimme that gacha thrill. 

3! ♡    i need about 3 cups of tea per day, minimum, or i perish immediately

———  EXPERIENCE! ♡

PLATFORMS USED! ♡     uhhh just here and discord really.

———  MUSE  PREFERENCE! ♡

GENDER! ♡     i seem to gravitate toward male muses? 

LEAST FAVOURITE FACE(S)! ♡    genuinely don’t give a fuck tbh. 

MULTI OR SINGLE! ♡     i have both! zack here’s my main boy and gets all my attention, then the rest of my muses are crammed together on a multi. 

FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT! ♡    all three but not in excess. fluff gets boring for me if it’s just fluffy nonsense and it’s leading nowhere. it’s cute for a bit and then im like ‘but when’s smth exciting gonna happen’. angst --- is good, but not just angst for angst’s sake, u feel? & smut is uhhh hmmm for me. most times, my smut brain just doesn’t activate and im not feelin it. every now and then i’ll write a little spicy content but im not really that into it.

PLOT / MEMES! ♡    im really not organised enough to run on pure plot so most of the time, it’s a case of throwing memes at each other and seeing what sticks. plot is good for once we have a feel of where we wanna go with things!

     ❛ they’re no good to you.. or for you. ❜  she’s candid in her remark, nonetheless she has taken into consideration zack’s feelings on the matter, but she can’t lie to him forever. so she’s more subtle in her disregard of shinra.  ❛ they’ve got you working so hard.. i’m worried, are you eating properly? ❜ 

          nonchalance doesn’t come easy in the face of such sincere concern, so zack doesn’t try to pretend. his shoulders slump like a weight’s dropped from them. “sometimes i think you’re the only one who worries about what’s good for me.” it’s nice. that she worries, that she cares, that she’s so frank and honest about it all. “hmmm. that an offer to cook for me? on a date, perhaps?”
