. you don't look well .
well shit-- a tinge of slight embarrassment 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 to the surface of his skin . though his umber gaze flickered betwixt the man and his arm , it remained downcast . he is unfamiliar to attention that caters to his health and well-being ; only knowing a few that would pay mind to it if they were here .
the laugh catches his attention once more , lifting his pained eyes whilst he release his fist to massage the forearm of his stump . when he is questioned how he fairs , barret simply 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗵𝘂𝗳𝗳 . the gunman wanted to air he was fine but knew that likely followed with a statement how he is not .
he does perk up at the mention of a round of drinks . it pulls him away from the concentration of his limb ( searing pain and all ) ' heh , i'm willin' t' try anythin' . ' even if it didn't dull the pain , better drunk and suffering than sober . something about a buzz would still help him feel a little good .
“ i always trust that you’ve got my back ”
the biggest grin pulls on his lips . the weight of his massive hand grasps biggs on the shoulder , a light jostle given . it might loosen him up some , 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 . . . but what the younger man speaks is true . a lowly chuckle rolls in his chest , without his strategist the gunman would be lost ; he's also thankful to have someone whose got his back in return .
' heh heh , you got th' best man fo' th' job . ' he's allowed a little bit of arrogance , right ? his grip releases and he gestures forward with the gunarm . now that the were back in the slums , they could 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗱 a little .
starters / prompts taken from various characters starring in the game fire emblem : three houses . feel free to change pronouns / tenses as necessary .

“ you actually look more handsome to me with honesty on your face ”
“ don’t be ashamed of crying ”
“ could you keep quiet for a bit ? ”
“ you’re actually kind of amazing ”
“ do you mean to imply you have no intention of acting a bit more respectably ? ”
“ stop acting so nonchalant about getting hurt or killed ”
“ naive and uptight is no way to live your life ”
“ you’d better watch that temper ”
“ i am absolutely disinterested in spending any time with you ”
“ your lack of self-awareness is deeply troubling ”
“ I’ll just be straightforward about taking advantage of you ”
“ when will you tire of challenging me in pointless competitions ? ”
“ you expect me to believe that ? ”
“ i’ve had enough of your foolish antics ”
“ i wish you would not sneak up on me like that ”
“ before you reprimand me , take a moment to consider your own failings ”
“ it is like hearing a snake sing an aria ”
“ am I hearing a deathbed confession ? ”
“ i never have any idea what you’re talking about ”
“ don’t walk away when i’m talking to you ”

“ i do not intend to die ”
“ i can’t believe you put yourself at risk for my benefit ”

“ you’re surprisingly strong for how slender you appear ”
“ perhaps i was flustered needlessly ”
“ i had forgotten how charmingly ethereal you can be ”
“ you’re going a little overboard ”
“ you have shaken me to my very core ”
“ so this is what death is like ”
“ if you get sick of me , i’m sorry ahead of time ”
“ i’m embarrassed just thinking about it ”
“ you’re like a little brother to me ”
“ spending the rest of my life with you doesn’t sound so bad ”
“ if our roles were reversed , I don’t think I’d be able to forgive you ”
“ you actually hate me , right ? ”
“ you haven’t stabbed me yet ”
“ i want to be more like you ”
“ i actually envy the size of your heart ”
“ i don’t think you can solve all your problems by throwing a few punches ”
“ there aren’t a lot of people like you in the world ”
“ sorry I’ve been so oblivious to your needs ”
“ sometimes you just can’t afford to wait around for someone else to notice ”
“ yesterday’s enemy is today’s ally ”
“ you have to abandon old feuds ”
“ learn to protect yourself before trying to protect me ”
“ i always trust that you’ve got my back ”
“ if only people could be more like flowers ”
“ if you promise not to resort to violence , I’ll do whatever you want ”
“ i can’t stand the sight of me either ”
“ i would be even more impressed if you hadn’t been screaming the whole time ”
“ i did what was necessary to get you to comply ”
“ you have so much power in you , just waiting to be unleashed ”
“ i’m hopelessly terrified of you ”

( WOOF ! yes , okay , pls , i want all the interactions with these two LOL i just have a feeling , these two could be a great duo either in battle or as comrades or more . when barret has good chemistry with ppl or if they lean toward the side of good , barret can easily trust and build loyalty . i might have to just drop some things in your askbox to see how clive would be to see how barret ends up leaning but i'm sure it's gonna be great ! ) // @riseifrit
" y' think i’m bein' stupid. " the lilt in his tone suggests his self doubt , it wasn't easy figurin' out that stubborn punk . yet somehow both jessie and tifa get along with this sassy mouth ex soldier , what made him so damn likable when he was nuttin' but a pain in the ass?! / @bigshct
𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐫𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝. 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐣𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧. even if the possibility of it getting into a brawl seemed far off in the distance. jessie waited for the inevitable speech barret was going to give to follow up on his line, but it never came. the silence sank between them and they just kept falling deeper into it. jessie stole a breath from the stagnant air and heaved it out just as quickly, ❛ i don’t ever think you’re stupid, barret ❜ it was rare that jessie let his name slip out when addressing him directly. she tried hard to keep her smile painted on her face, giving affectionate titles and nicknames to her comrades. even if the world was ending, she wanted hope to remain and reasons to keep smiling.
❛ i do think it’s a bit silly that you let his little quips get to you... and i think i know why that is. ❜ jessie side stepped away from barret and begun to pace back in forth, feigning an investigator’s process of coming to a conclusion. ❛ you take one look at the guy and you can’t make it past the fact that he was once a part of shinra—a soldier at that! ❜ she turned her body to him, her finger pointed directly at him as if she was accusing him of some foul deed, ❛ while i can see passed all of that he’s putting out—I have a good read on people. ❜ jessie tilted her head, examining barret’s face—searching for proof her words were traveling somewhere meaningful instead of filling up noise inside the room. ❛ so if you don’t trust him yet, it’s fine, but at the very least trust us! ❜
❛ oh, just so you know, i don't ever lose this game. ❜ @ vincent remember when they had a shooting competition?
it was true that one was more of a marksman than the other ; barret mostly put holes in anything , accuracy wasn't necessary for that . . . not when a spray of bullets can hit many targets . ( still . . . the gibe at this being a contest produces a scrunched sneer on the gunman's face )
he was a character , barret wore his expressions on his sleeve . his massive paw comes up to his mien , finger pressing down on the frame of dark sunglasses ( revealing one eye that glares toward the red caped vigilante ) ' now yo' ass wanna make this a competition , --tch . . . ! '
naw , he was gonna give this gunslinger a run for his money ! he went and did it now , of course this would rile barret up . more boisterous than ever / he begins waving his gun arm in the air .
' aw-right ! it's on now , imma be keepin count ! ' // @nazorneku

❛ it was wrong of me to assume you're ever gonna change. ❜ ❛ that's it? it was all just a lie? ❜ ❛ shame on me for thinking you were a good person. ❜ ❛ you're gonna pay for what you did to me. ❜ ❛ you didn't hear a word of what i just said, did you? ❜ ❛ believe me, you weren't my first choice either. ❜ ❛ if you've got a problem with the way i handle things, just say so. ❜ ❛ do you think we're gonna survive this? ❜ ❛ what's your problem?! ❜ ❛ will you please slow down a little? ❜ ❛ i can't believe you would do something like that. ❜ ❛ did it mean anything to you? ❜ ❛ i'm never gonna be good enough for you. ❜ ❛ we were just fooling ourselves this whole time. ❜ ❛ i'm sorry, i didn't know where else to go. ❜ ❛ i don't want to argue with you anymore. ❜ ❛ fine. you were right, and i was wrong. happy now? ❜ ❛ this day feels like it's never gonna end. ❜ ❛ i didn't think you'd care so much. ❜ ❛ this must be like the first time you were nice to me. ❜ ❛ out of all the people here, why do i have to be stuck with you? ❜ ❛ do you want to go on a date with me? ❜ ❛ honestly, i don't think i wanna leave the house today. ❜ ❛ were you ever planning on telling me about all of this? ❜ ❛ i wish i had another choice. ❜ ❛ don't flatter yourself, a fifth-grader could've done this as well. ❜ ❛ you're the most insufferable person i have ever met. ❜ ❛ here, you look like you need this more than me right now. ❜ ❛ oh, just so you know, i don't ever lose this game. ❜ ❛ just let me sleep for five more minutes. ❜ ❛ alright, is there anything else we have to do before they arrive? ❜ ❛ do you believe in ghosts? ❜ ❛ i wish we had more time together. ❜ ❛ you don't have to leave just yet ... you could stay the night if you wanted to. ❜ ❛ where are you taking me? ❜ ❛ trust me, this is the last thing i want to do. ❜ ❛ i need more time to think about what i want. ❜ ❛ why didn't you say anything earlier? we could've avoided this whole mess. ❜ ❛ i don't feel so good, i think i may be getting sick. ❜ ❛ help me! please! ❜
❛ c'mon, I've made sure that the plan is flawless, least you could do is have a celebratory drink with me. ❜ truth be told he was trying to distract himself from worrying so much — sure, he'd planned everything, and his plans hardly failed, he wasn't the strategist for nothing, but he couldn't control his nerves. ❛ just one, promise. ❜ @strategicode
barret is pretty certain there is a specific superstition about celebrating too early and bad luck . . . he can't quite remember it right but the proposition made by his strategist leaves him 𝒂 𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒍𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒚 .
his lips are pushed upward in a slight pucker whilst pondering this thought . he dunno about this one seeing as if anyone celebrated prior to the finish line they risk losing . not that bigg's didn't have a sound proof plan or anythin' ! but . . .
' juss one . . . ' it is spoken with 𝒂𝒖𝒅𝒊𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒚 ( he hadn't meant it to be aloud ) realizing how it came out a breath too late , the gunman resets his composure and acts again . . .
a proud scoff escapes him , his chest puffing up slightly as he accepts with undeniable gusto ' yeah , drinks on me ! ' the commendable hard work 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 𝒑𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒅 ; though a leader , the gunman was too honorable to take credit for something he didn't do and wanted his companions to feel appreciated for what they're doing for AVALANCHE .
knowing the nerves are likely running through his comrade a firm good hand places 'pon the strategist's shoulder ; barret couldn't be more proud . ' an' after , we'll celebrate again . '
hello friends & followers , i am writing this post because i have been doing quite a bit of thinking . i feel that this news is good , though probably an odd adjustment for some . i say this , because i am not sure how many people will remain on board with me for the changes i am about to make . as far as roleplay is concerned , i am still very much interested in it , but not in the way of what it has evolved into . i have recently pondered over what i like & do not like related to roleplay . i want to adjust how i am roleplaying to fit in a way i can enjoy it ( more than i am now ) . i have gone a decade if not longer , writing in a way or putting out content that appeases everyone but myself . what i mean by this , is probably not what you are thinking . i believe we are all on the same page that roleplay is meant to be enjoyed by the writer , not just the people they are writing for or everyone else .
i have a lot of weird quirks , like anyone else , right ? like , my alarm clock is set for 7:53AM because i do not like even numbers lol . what i am getting at , is that i am no longer going to roleplay in the manner of having a lot of threads & will likely discontinue having actual threads for the most part . if i plan to have a thread , it will be rare & with certain people in particular .
i have come to this decision because i do not & have never enjoyed when threads are dropped ( this also goes for starters i write that are never responded to ) . i am not talking about people who take time to reply ( whether that's waiting a day , week or months / year ) , i am literally only addressing dropped threads . this is because i have a particular quirk with unfinished things . i don't shut off a car in the middle of a song playing ( i have to finish it ) , i dont shut off my music / headphones in the middle of a song , i don't begin reading a book and never pick it up again , & i personally dislike plotting / writing out a thread and then never finishing it ( hate it actually ) . it mentally bothers me & i remain fixated on it for a while , obsessing over an ending .
people who drop threads do not make me mad , i do not dislike people who drop threads , & i have always written with people again even after dropped threads & created new ones . i understand why people may drop a thread(s) , i understand a lack of motivation , lost inspiration , difficulty focusing , not feeling strong enough about the character(s) , depression , work life , real life , etc etc . this is why , when people drop a thread i never whine , i never argue , i never force / persuade / pester / annoy a partner to continue a thread . i have allowed myself to mentally struggle over my compulsive need to finish things or desire to finish things in order for my partners to feel ease & reduced stress by reducing their work load or anxiety over something they worried about . i don't like causing other people a problem . that being said , i need to stop creating problems for myself by not speaking up about what i want .
a way i can overcome this & also help my situation , is if i roleplay in a way that works for both me and my partners . that being said , i will primarily " roleplay " through asks , but more correctly , i will primarily write through asks . why ? well for starters i love asks . secondly , i can control the ask . i can give the ask a beginning , middle & end . i can leave a cliffhanger that gives it an ending but with the speculation that more could happen thereafter . i can write in a way that allows me to give my partners consistent & constant content & interaction whilst also meeting my standards to enjoy roleplay . threads are only an idea open to me with people who rarely drop threads , who will eventually reply ( regardless to timeframe ) , and share a similar sentiment i do because we share a similar compulsive need to complete stories .
this will affect all my character blogs , i also plan to continue to keep the ships i have with all my characters and partners ( unless they otherwise want to discontinue in particular to not liking my new preferences ) . i hope that many of you , if not all , continue to stick with me , because in the grand outlook of it all , it's not changing much . i am still , hopefully , giving you all wonderful things you will enjoy to read about our characters & more development because nothing will be dropped . it simply means you can continue to get content you want even when you may be struggling to find motivation to write yourself & me providing you something to read , or help to inspire you . this also means that you will likely receive more asks from myself , available for you to respond to whenever you feel like . any current threads i have now will automatically be converted with responses that will give closure / potential cliffhangers to end on , so i can transition into this new style of roleplay .
for those that may want to continue their threads ( because they will like to complete it with me ) i will be happy to discuss .
if you have read through all of this , thank you so much ! i know this was a lot to read & digest , but i appreciate it a lot .

This is more wishlist-y, but I like to think that one day when Barret and Marlene go out to run some errands together, Cloud would get to tag along with them. I doubt in the whole time during/after the main game events, they didn’t get to bond and get closer together. Even if it’s something small like going on a shopping trip to get Marlene new clothes or to take her somewhere where she can see fields of flowers. Cloud never really had a father figure and though he didn’t necessarily miss it, it’d be nice for him to see what a good father is like and to witness the softer side of Barret without the pressure of Shinra and Avalanche weighing on his shoulders.
Cloud without fail always grumbles about Barret and him trying to hug him. He usually slips away, but one time he’s too slow and Barret actually gets him. Despite his complaining, he actually enjoys the hug... and let’s just say after that, most attempts at hugs are successful from Barret’s part. Cloud won’t admit he likes them, but sometimes a guy needs a good, firm hug to keep him grounded in reality instead of floating off in his head. Barret’s hugs just happen to be the right amount of comforting, yet firm. Though rather than admit it, Cloud would sooner just lie and say Barret caught him off guard and ambushed him. Gotta keep up appearances Bl
