heads will roll

Robert 'Bobby' Fleetwood, 25, Farm Owner. Most of you will have heard of my brother, I'm the other Fleetwood twin.

Okay so there’s a lot of stuff I want to say but I’m late to the party thanks to my timezone anyway and it just feels a little weird now everything’s shut down. So just thanks to everyone who helped me develop Bobby, Beth and Andrew (and Clarence before) and thanks to the people I talk to a lot (really, you do know who you are, there weren’t a ton) and to the people I didn’t talk to a lot – I probably did stalk your characters and I’ll put it down to timezone differences.

If you want my kik, Skype or iMessage then message me. My main blog is magicwrites though I’m at my grandparents’ with next to no internet so I’m not sure how much I’ll be there.

“You don’t know what sunflowers look like, Bobby? They’re the big yellow ones. I wish it was that easy, but you’re right. Not about you being the worst politician, because I’m not sure I’d believe that, but because family legacies and the lectures I’ve had to endure about them make me irritated.”

“Oh, yeah, those ones I probably could distinguish from the rest but maybe not others. Your confidence is lovely but I’m the wrong person to put it in – I don’t have the confidence or the charisma needed to be a politician. I’m sorry about all the pressure put on you though, you don’t deserve that.”

spitfirecody Hey you – I challenge you to complete a map of Europe correctly. No skipping Eastern Europe because that’ll offend those lovely people xD nah it was like over 50% right and that’s a victory

gdigriffin Merci, I really like the country of shared queens – it’s a real bond – you have moose and we have… literally nothing.

sagefckley Does anybody actually live there? No? Just farms? And bears? All good then.

Okay, so I was betting my friend’s little brother that I could label the map of the USA better than he could label the map of Europe and for the amusement of everyone ever, have my failed attempt. I apologise if I completely offended half a nation…

“Siblings will always argue. But what you just said? About protecting him? That’s what I meant. Families protect each other. Blood before all, and all that. It’s supposed to be like that.” Her words were tinged with something she didn’t quite like, so she took another sip until it cleared. Violet laughed, shaking her head. “You’re so nice, really. You didn’t know the old me though. You would have hated her.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“We both fucked up but we do stick together. He looks out for me and he looks out for my daughter – it’s more than I hoped for when I first moved back here.” Glancing over at her, he wondered why she was so upset at the moment, whether there was a way to make things better, “I don’t worry about your old self, it’s the current Violet I worry about.”

[lightsoutlucky]

“Good. Families should be happy things.” Vi said with a nod, though her smile was a bit forced if nothing else. “Do I really though? That’s the thing i’m stuck on. Either way I seem to have it. Some of it, at least.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I wouldn’t go that far, we still have a lot of differences, and we argued over an awful lot of things. I would protect him from anyone else who wanted to hurt him though, he’s my brother.” He nodded quickly at her words, “Of course you do, you’re a lovely person.”

“Juliet roses, chrysanthemums, brother chuck peonies, sunflowers, and… of man, probably tulips? Maybe. There could be some other contenders. No, no, I definitely don’t belong as President. Maybe First Lady. Lord knows my father would be thrilled if I married into politics, but I don’t know if it’s the life for me. Hence me not following into his footsteps in the first place.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I have to be honest and admit I don’t know all those flowers but you talk about them with such passion, I’ll need to look into them all. You marry who you want – never mind family legacies, otherwise I’d have to follow Brian into politics too and I’d be the worst politician ever.”

“I’m surprised you even believe in organized whether, you hippie. Who knows, it might do.”

“And yes, according to the forecast we’ll have phenomenal weather. Anastasia’s joining me on this particular trip, it’ll make sight seeing a little less trialling.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“Yeah, I don’t – but I can still hope that you’ll have a decent time there.”

“Well, it sounds like you’ll have a wonderful trip.”

[lightsoutlucky]

She raised a brow, sipping at her drink and letting the liquor soothe her. “Problems with Brian, then?” Vi asked, not having heard anything from her boss, not that she should expect to. “I’m trying to keep that mindset.”

[tfbobby-blog]

Humming, Bobby shrugged, “On and off really, but I think we’re okay now.” He looked over at the girl and just hoped that things would improve for her, “You deserve happiness, Vi.”

[congressman-fleetwood]

“Ooh, shorts weather in Washington, what a treat. The sun must know I’m headed to The Hill.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“Oh yeah, the weather bases its whole life on Mr. Brian Fleetwood. Seriously though, I hope you get really good weather.”

[delaneyomg]

“Okay, okay. Well, have you ever thought about speed dating? Or going on a television show like The Bachelorette or something like that? It could be super fun.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I think no for both for the same reason – I’m completely antisocial. Nobody would like me when speed dating and there’s no way anyone would want to watch me on the TV. Why, are you considering either of those options?”

[vclkyries]

“I’m definitely going to agree with you on this one. The time span between people getting these tattoos and getting these tattoos covered up is getting shorter and shorter”

[tfbobby-blog]

“Yeah, well, they’ll get their comeuppance. It seems a bit ridiculous anyway, are they going to forget that they love them otherwise?”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I’m pretty sure that they were hitting on you, and you’re missing out! You should get out of more, start partying and have a few one night stands. I’ve never done them myself – or had alcohol before, but I’m pretty sure you’re a reasonable adult. Just pretend that water is vodka or something – tell the bartender to put a mint leaf and a lime in it, make it a little festive. You should have fun and get out of the house before you’re eighty!”

“I think I’ll go with a no on that one… I’m not one for casual sex, to begin with, I like there to be a proper connection. Plus I really am not a fan of alcohol.”

[vclkyries]

“I cringe every time somebody comes into my shop and wants to get their significant other’s name tattooed onto them… you will regret it.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“It’s a really bad idea – Just makes the likelihood of breaking up even greater if you ask me.”

[gdialice-blog]

“Well I don’t really know if I like clubbing since I haven’t been to one yet, I just don’t think it’ll be my cup of tea right now. Don’t people rather go on dates to a more relaxed place where it isn’t so loud or overwhelming, though?”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I suppose they do, yes, but most people going to clubs aren’t looking for a date, they’re looking for casual sex.”

[gracexsullivan-blog]

“I hope to God that the flowers don’t rise up against me and make me pick my favorite. I mean, I’m pretty sure I could narrow down my top five but even then it would be hard. Good! You’re welcome. I’m full of them. I’m a complimenting machine and I’m always sincere about them.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“Which are your top five flowers then? Sounds like you should have been the president, after all, you’d have been able to charm your way into the White House.”

[catgoldstein-blog]

“Now I feel obliged to get you a date, you need to have a fun night. I can offer to babysit even.”

[tfbobby-blog]

“I really don’t want to be set up, I’d rather meet someone on my own terms. Thanks for the offer though.”
