Franco with a partner who has an infatuation with touching his pudgy tummy :)
This ask speaks to me on a deeply personal level because I am a Franco belly TRUTHER I would be squeezing and hugging on him and he would beat me with a bag of bricks
- He would be so mad at first. He would be self conscious and embarrassed, smacking his partner's hands away from his soft bits and snapping, "I ain't no dog, stop with the fuckin' belly rubs." He might like to be held and coddled every once in a while, but this is too far!
- The second his partner scurries over to him and spreads their fingers out to poke and squeeze at his belly, he's turning red and scrambling away. Yelping with a voice crack and everything. He's asking what the fuck their problem is and grumbling about "havin' no damn respect in (his) own home."
-He's not ticklish. He swears it, up and down. He made that sound because his partner scared him, duh. But they didn't acrually scare him, because he isn't afraid of anything. He was just... playing! He was playing along! But his partner is taking it too far and now he's pushing them away and barking for them to knock it off, because "I said I ain't fuckin' ticklish, you fuckin' meathead!"
- This is the consistent result, every single time his partner tries, until one single night. Franco had an exceptional day—he closed a fantastic deal with a distributor, took his partner out to a nice restaurant to celebrate, and then took them home to celebrate into the wee hours of the morning. They're sprawled out on the couch, with Franco laying back between his partner's spread legs and his back to their chest, and their hands are running all over him. It's warm, it's soothing, and Franco is in paradise. Their hands come to squeeze and massage over his belly, and instead of jumping out of his skin and barking like a rabid dog, Franco practically purrs.
- "Oh, suga'... that don't feel half bad..."

- He's leaning back, resting his head on his partner's shoulder, and he's actually letting them touch his belly. He sighs, closes his eyes, and just relaxes into the feeling...
- Until his partner is using the new position of his head to nuzzle into him and cover the side of his face in little kisses, from his temple to his chin. He lets himself laugh it off at first—he's not giggling, Franco Barbi doesn't giggle—but then he's sucking in a breath and choking on it when his partner gives a particularly slow, firm squeeze and digs their nails into his soft flesh.
- It doesn't take long to get him squirming—he's happy, full, and a few glasses of wine deep, and lord does his partner's nails dragging over his skin feel like heaven.
- "Can't you move those hands a little lower, dollface? I think I'm gettin' there..."
- He definitely doesn't get what he wants. Not right away, not after making his partner wait so long for this. Their hands are all over his torso—massaging over his soft tummy, pulling at the give of the flesh with their fingertips, squeezing at the plush layer of fat at his hips, and even rising up to cup and grope at the meat of his chest. After all the fuss Franco put up? They aren't stopping until he's crying and begging for them to just touch him already.
- His partner would be shocked to find him half-hard by the time they have him shaking and weeping for more. It's monumental for Franco, even if it isn't much, and it only takes a few slightly-too-rough tugs and squeezes to get him to full hardness.
- He cums embarrassingly fast—a wild contrast to the hour minimum it usually takes of working him over—and he's literally trembling against his partner from how ridiculously good he feels in that moment. He's used to hours of cruel foreplay and forced orgasms that border on painful when they're wrenched out of him; but this is just a warm, tingling sensation that blooms under his skin and leeches the strength out of all of his limbs.
- He'a falling asleep on top of his partner after, and there's absolutely nothing they can do about it. They're not moving or going anywhere for the next 6-8 hours
Since you said Franco would totally cheat on his partner, how would he react with being broken up with because of that?
Sorry if the question has a too obvious answer. I am new to the fandom 💔
His partner wants to leave him? They want to break up with him? Move out? Run away from him? Yeah, whatever, that's totally fine! He even got them a new bed for their new place, to offer his best wishes!
... because I'm insane and I don't think I properly emphasized how... not gentle he is in almost every aspect of his life.
CW for toxic behaviors, and descriptions/mentions of physical, mental, and emotional abuse. Franco is Franco. Idk what you want me to tell y'all, he's just a violent little freak. Never doubt that he loves his partner, but ALWAYS doubt his ability to properly show it 😭
This one's a little shorter than the others cus I have a very specific point to make Oopsie
- I think Franco takes aftercare very seriously when it comes to his partner—as a measure to prevent long-lasting mental/emotional/physical damage, as a way to create a distinction between them and faceless bodies in his head, and to reinforce his position as a provider.
- I also think he would get absolutely PISSED and immediately stop providing aftercare, or even lash out, if he thinks his partner isn't being appreciative enough or isn't going overboard with praising and thanking him. He needs to be constantly reminded that they acknowledge how good he is to them, and that they know he doesn't treat anyone else as special as he treats them.
- I can imagine his partner flinching when he massages a particularly sore bruise along their back, or pulling away when he's spooning mouthfuls of too-hot food into their mouth, and he's immediately glaring at them and withdrawing with a frustrated growl. "What, s'not good 'nough for you? I'm not good 'nough for you? I'm doin' my fuckin' best over here, a little gratitude s'all I ask. So you're gonna sit, 'n you're gonna behave, or we're gonna have a fuckin' problem."
- Franco is an avid practitioner in aggressive aftercare. If his partner flinches away from a massage, he's pinning them down and continuing until he's satisfied with his work—or until they stop struggling. If they pull away from his spoonfuls, he's squeezing their jaw with his thumb and fingertips to force it open and shovel more in, anyway. After all, he knows what's best for his favorite toy, and he's doing such a good job at taking care of them!
Franco has a unused dialogue line where he says something about ruining his manicure. Do you think he actually gets manicures? What about other things like pedicures, facials, and massages? Do you think he would he treat his partner to these things?
Ah, the Age of Conformity and the odd hoops people were jumping through to define gender roles and "norms" in society. An era where a man was "gay" for going down on a woman, but getting a manicure and a weekly massage was the manliest thing he could do.
I'm like. A HUGE nerd when it comes to the history and social/political climate of the early to mid 20th century. I LOVE receiving any and all asks where I get to use literally any of this knowledge.
It was actually very normalized (and encouraged) for men to get regular manicure treatmemts, for the sake of hygiene and maintaining a put-together appearance. Men were expected to have clean, short-length nails, especially if they were interested in showing off their wealth or status in society. To outsiders, a poor man would have jagged, unkempt nails caked with dirt, but a rich man has clean, evenly filed, healthy nails. The appearance was COMPLETELY detached from whatever like of work a man was in, or how hard he worked on a day-to-day basis.
Outside of this, I think Franco took as much pride in his appearance, hygiene, and personal grooming as he could pre-Sinyala. I can see him telling himself that he drew the short wnd of the stick from birth, and that he needs to work extra hard to be perceived at least relatively "normally" by others. I also think franco feels entitled to nice things, and would absolutely love getting pampered and showered with attention during his treatments. Like... imagine Franco, laid out in a spa chair, hot towel over his face, in absolute HEAVEN, with no less than five people bustling around him and putting every ounce of their attention into his comfort and appearance. And he's definitely flirting with them.
He would absolutely treat his partner to these things, whenever possible. He believes his partner deserves nice things, too, as a direct extension of him and his influence. The better his partner is treated and taken care of, the more capable Franco is perceived as a provider and as a "proper man."
does franco barbi like to eat his bitches out? is he good at it? i think he’s Desperate and Needy with it i think he’s like waugh aughhh slurrp lssrjjjfrl slurp llalal slurp wow this oussy insane slurp lick lick lap lap alrirrrp
on a srs note i think he does it entirely because he wants to and gets annoyed if someone cums on his face
Not even gonna pretend any of this is appropriate, y'all know the drill.
CW for descriptions of female genitalia and bodily functions that may POSSIBLY be disturbing to some. But like. If you're here for Franco, it's nothing you haven't seen before LOL
Franco is Franco, yet again (shocker).
- I was literally talking about this in a server the other day, I just KNOW he's an eater. And he's fucking terrible at it.
- Being raised in a time period and environment where going down on a woman was considered taboo and "gay," he wouldn't really have anywhere else—or anyone else—to build an idea of... exactly how he's supposed to do it. And he is absolutely not the type of person to take any criticism given on his skills in the bedroom.
- I think being nestled between a woman's thighs is probably one of his favorite places to be, both in and out of sexual contexts. It's the closest he can get to beimg fully enveloped by their warmth, without... y'know... being inside of them. If he can't crawl right up inside them and make himself at home in their womb, he'll sure as hell do whatever it takes to to get as close as possible.
- Having a nice, warm pair of thighs clamped around his head while he grips, squeezes, bites, and claws at them??? Good luck pulling him away.
- He's literally begging his partner to squish him with their thighs. He's groaning, laughing like a maniac, and drooling every time he feels them squeeze tight enough to make his head ache and his vision blur. "Jus' fuckin' crush me, I don' even care. Oh, mama... this is fuckin' Paradise..."
- Not to mention his very obvious oral fixation... who needs a pacifier, or a thumb, anyway?
- What he lacks in skill, he makes up for in pure, unadulterated enthusiasm. Lips, tongue, teeth—licking, biting, sucking, slurping—he's going absolutely crazy. Does it really even feel that great? Maybe, maybe not. But does it feel like a lot? Absolutely. It's just enough for him to probably end up accidentally edging his partner for literal hours on end.
- Also, he is ABSOLUTELY doing it for his own personal enjoyment, rather than any actual attempt at pleasing his partner. He's addicted to the taste, the smell, the very idea of being inside such a position—he would definitely get pissed off if his thorough enjoyment was cut short by his oversensitive partner, who has probably cum several times already, pushing his face away from between their legs.
- Ohhh he's so manipulative about it too. "Come on, jus' give baby a lil' more, suga'. Jus' one last taste. Dat's it. I barely even started, s'not fair! You wanna make baby cry? You like holdin' candy over baby's head?"
- The exasperated roll of his partner's eyes only gets him excited all over again, because he knows it means he's getting his way, as always.
General CW for assault and violence against sex workers. Franco is Franco. Thank you
I'm sorry if this isn't the answer some of y'all want to hear but like... again....... Franco 💀
See. this one is a bit difficult to put my thoughts into words. I have absolutely 0 doubt in my mind that he would love his partner in every conceivable way he physically can, but I also believe he struggles with the concept of commitment and exclusivity, due to the environment he was raised in, and the example his own father set in his childhood.
I don't think he has the emotional capacity to cheat emotionally. Franco doesn't flirt, he never tries to romance or "smooth talk" anyone from what we hear in in-game dialogue (besides Gooseberry lol). He's just crude, cruel, and selfish, and he very obviously sees the vast majority of other people as things to be used and discarded, in some way or another. But he's also self aware, so I feel he would be very conscious of how differently he feels for his partner and how he has a good thing going that he doesn't want to ruin.
So like... Emotionally? No. Physically? Yes. I could see him still hiring prostitutes to indulge in his darker and more depraved fantasies that he wouldn't be able to with his partner, or defiling corpses, or assaulting other people. I've seen a few people have this notion that the incident with Jenny wouldn't have happened if Franco was in a relationship pre-Sinyala, and I just don't think that's the case. I think he's still get the craving, acknowledge that he can't hurt his partner that way, and still seek Jenny (or, yknow, a prostitute in general) out.
He would also have a really hard time understanding why his partner is jealous, because he's a big hypocrite. He would be confused, because he loves them so much, why would they be upset over him giving some broad a little attention? They're his partner, they should know he loves them, shouldn't they? When he gets jealous, he feels he can reasonably blame the feeling on a proposed threat to his name, image, and social standing. But all of those things with his partner are directly related to him, and they know he isn't going to leave them for someone else, so why do they get so angry when he hires a prostitute or humps a corpse?? None of them get him going the way his partner does, anyway...
I feel he may eventually feel guilty because he knows it hurts them, but he also can't bring himself to stop, because he is entirely unwilling to seek psychiatric help, and turning himself in CERTAINLY isn't on the table.
I was thinking about how hot jealous Franco would be in theory until i realized that realistically this man is extremely volatile so that’d just increase the risks surrounding his partner’s safety lol.
Anyway what’re ur thoughts about that? MAYBE maybeeee if he likes them enough they can get away with making him jealous? :>
I want to preface this by saying I am NOT going to romanticize or coddle him as a character, I love Franco BECAUSE he is so nuanced, and I think we all need to occasionally take a minute to remember the time period and environment he was raised in/exists in.
Also I think this was very heavily written to imply that it is pre/post/generally outside of Sinyala. ANYWAY. Ehehee.
Jealous Franco!!!
Realistically, I think it depends on his mood and the context.
- I think if another man was hitting on his partner, Franco would take it as a direct insult to his own masculinity and how he is perceived by others. Regardless of whether or not the other guy knew you're with Franco before hitting on you, I think Franco would take it as a personal slight on him and his "claim" over you.
- I also think jealous Franco would (unfortunately) find any way to put the blame on his partner. Too shy - "Why were you encouragin' him?" Too aggressive - "Some guys're into that shit, what are you tryin' to get at?" (The call is coming from inside the house!) Relying on him to handle it - "What, you can't take care'a this trash yourself? Your fella's gotta pry you off of other men like a bitch in heat?"
- But here's where it gets funny. Because I think Franco would just get worked up if his partner was the one initiating the flirting with someone else. He'd still get jealous and angry, for sure—but it would also register more as a game to him than a direct threat to him and his masculinity. It's not another man stepping on his territory, it's his partner testing his patience, and boy does that REALLY get him going. It gets him even more when the other guy reciprocates—because Franco, in a twisted way, likes the idea of other men finding what's his desirable. Yeah, his partner's bangin' hot, and they're only giving this schmuck the time of day to tease him. Of course this would make Franco go NUTS.
- Let's be real, Franco would most likely be REALLY into it if his partner was hitting on/getting hit on by a woman, regardless of the context or his partner's gender identity. He's a fucking freak and he definitely wouldn't say no to seeing two hot chics kissing, or his fella with a hot woman. Or being in between them.

CW for non-con, violence, abusive behavior, exhibitionism
- Jealous Franco feels the need to assert his dominance as soon as possible, to a desperate and pathetic degree. He's threatening the guy who flirted with his partner, threatening his partner, getting red in the face, stuttering on his words, and reaching for his Lupara when words are completely beyond him—if he's really that angry.
- I don't think Franco would directly put his hands on his partner out of anger—at least not in front of other people, he knows better for his own image—but he would probably lash out and threaten it. "Do you want me to fuckin' hurt you? Is that what you want from me? Is that what you want to make me do? Breakin' my fuckin' heart over here, you know I don't wanna hurt my doll."
- The easiest way to calm him down is obviously to shower him with the affection he deserves, preferably as soon as possible, and in front of whoever dared to look at, talk to, or even touch his partner. The sooner his partner is in his lap with his hands fisting the meat of their ass, the better.
- He's absolutely made his partner suck him off in front of others. He'd be careful about it, holding them by the hair and keeping their face at just the right angle between his legs, so no one can see how pathetically limp he is. Despite it, he still loves the powerful feeling of it, and he might've even gotten hard at some point or another.
- In private, jealous Franco is DYING to cover his partner in as many bite marks, bruises, scratches, and whatever else shows any semblance of ownership, as possible. It starts off as a 'punishment,' he tells himself he's trying to hurt them, to make them feel sorry for 'betraying him,'—but it ends about three hours and four forced orgasms later, with him crying, and panting, and babbling. Because he just wants to fill them, and cover them, and make them taste him and feel him in every way possible, so they'll remember who they belong to, so they won't leave him...
- He isn't truly satisfied until he's curled up in his partner's arms, cigarette in one hand, tracing the cuts, bruises, scratches, and bite marks on their skin with the other. He likes seeing physical evidence of where he's been on their body, and he likes knowing that they let him do it. And he loves knowing that other people will see it.
- AFTERCARE KING!!! His partner belonging to him means he's responsible for them, even outside of sexual scenarios. After particularly intense or rough sex—which it always is, when he's jealous—he'd insist on drawing them a nice warm bath, cooking them a nice meal while they bathe, and give them a nice massage after they're bathed and full of home-cooked food. He has to take care of his doll, or they'll break, and he REALLY doesn't want to break this one.
I’ve seen someone on Outlast tumblr with an oc that is named Marzia that is meant for shipping with Franco, and they conveniently have the exact same username as you. Is this an alt? Genuine question. I follow them so I’m perplexed
Wait I don't have an alt and I just got here so like. Um........ Oopsie??? 😭 I know there's someone with a similar username to mine but I don't know about their OC or if they even have one. Gorsh now I feel so bad I should probably look around more before jumping into making my ocs 💔
Edit: Okay I did do my research and this is the scariest coincidence ever I literally jusy got the chills. Ermmmm
