He could only blink as her hand messes with his hair a bit. Normally a quip would emit but instead, he could only hum contently. A hand rises and cups his chin in contemplation of her words. He’s still not convinced but it may be best to let it slide than cause her worry.
“I guess so… it’s just- no you’re right I’m just me and they have to accept it.”
a nod accompanied by a grin, the brawler crosses her arms.
“ that’s the only thing you can really do. some people take a lot longer to understand, but just be firm in who you are and let things take it’s course. ”
@ofgunblade said:
“Here, squeeze my hand. You can hold onto me. I’m real, I’m not going anywhere.”
shaky breaths and hand clutching his, the brunette is struggling to differentiate what is reality and what is… not. nightmares that plague her mind, though not often, leave Tifa a mess; the feeling of flames licking at her skin linger and keep her burning from the inside out.
but then, a soothing voice.
she squeezes, very slightly in response, knees drawing upwards to her chest as she curls into herself, suppressing the tears that gather in her eyes and closes her throat. a touch to her shoulder and she flinches, shakes her head and can’t stop the whimper that slips past pink petals; the hand upon bare skin is soft, warm, gentle – everything that inhabits her conscious behind closed doors is not.
‘ i’m not going anywhere, ‘ he says and it’s so far away, so distorted, and yet – clear as day.
“s - squall…” a rasp between lips forms from a raw throat and she tries to breathe, tries to think clearly. “d - don’t… g - g… o.” she leans forward, towards him, towards the solace that wraps around her form, trembling.
nights like these aren’t too often, but when they happen, it renders the brawler helpless, vulnerable, undeniably raw – but having the swordsman by her side, ever patient, ever so willing to listen and watch her signs when she can’t even speak?
“You ever get the feeling no one takes you seriously?”
He’s obviously asking for himself but she didn’t seem the type to mince words. Something he very much appreciated in a person. Still, blues remain on her awaiting a response as he wasn’t one to get personal too often but when a moment allowed it this happens.
❝ hm… sometimes. jus’ gotta find the right people who will, y’know ?? ❞
a smile with a small head-tilt, the brawler ruffles the younger’s hair a tad. she never minds the conversation, or the questions being asked; though, they don’t come from zidane too often, she appreciates it – helps with keeping her mind distracted.
❝ you shouldn’t worry about it too much – what people think of you. ❞
you are so good at caring for others and keeping all your wounds covered. you are so good at drowning quietly, you’ve made it into an art. you are so good and you’re falling apart.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING
before interacting
New followers: Hey guys! Cali here with a few things; please read the following and enjoy your stay!
Please note that this account is ’selective’ and is currently independent.
✖ FOLLOWING/UNFOLLOWING;
To everyone following me or thinking about following me, you are welcomed here with open arms! Don’t think that you will ever be excluded here. If I seem like I’m not interested, just send me an ask! Sometimes I’m incredibly shy or my social anxiety comes through the computer; all I ask is that you’re patient with me.
Also, my blog is here as an outlet for me to write and escape adult duties, especially since the outside world is pretty terrifying nowadays. I am here for me; and I know that may sound mean, but I have been ridiculed before on various past blogs for not interacting with someone because I didn’t have the time. Like I said before, if you want to interact with me, shoot me a message in my ask! Just, please, don’t make me feel bad for not interacting with you if I can’t make the time in my schedule. That’s not okay and I will not tollerate it for my own mental sanity.
✖ NSFW CONTENT;
NSFW posts will appear on this blog from time to time, depending on happens with the NSFW ban happening as of 12/4, though not all the time and in certain degrees. If you wish to block any of the NSFW content posted, I will have various tags for various things. These tags will be updated in the Rules portion of my blog but also will be announced through posts as well.
Sex: ( sexual tw. )
Blood: ( blood tw. )
Violence: ( violence tw.)
I’m 22 years of age and will not rp anything NSFW or anything that could be classed as NC-17 with anyone under 18. I understand different countries and states have different laws, but I am not willing to risk myself, as well as others, getting in trouble.
✖ Shipping;
This is a multi-verse blog. That means, there is the possibility of a relationship happening ( uwu ). There is always the chance of our characters starting a relationship with first interactions and building it in later threads, or meeting first hand and getting to know each other first. Don’t be afraid to come to me about it! I love a good shippy thread~
✖ OC’s;
I think this may come as a shocker with how weird the rp community gets but, yes I’m OC friendly! However, it does help me in the long run if you have a bio or some sort of about page for me to read before interracting. I love OC’s but I love well-rounded and well-plotted OC’s more--though it is okay if you're just starting out, I understand it all too well. That being said, if you want your OC to have a verse with me, or your OC is the daughter of Tifa as an example, please come into my ask so we can discuss this.
✖ AU’s/Crossovers;
COMPLETELY WELCOME HERE. I love AU’s and X-Overs– hhhhhh !! They’re perfect and amazing and offer a lot of growth to a thread, and even to our characters. So don’t be afraid to ask for an AU version! I'll also have some verses set up soon of different FF games, as well as games outside of the Final Fantasy universe.
✖ Starters;
I tend not to write starters for new followers as I find the majority of them are not replied to and I find that they just become forgotten after a while — also I find it very hard to reply to generic starters with [ x ] number of people tagged in them; it makes it very difficult to track replies and I don't want anyone feeling forgotten! If you would like to rp, then feel free to tag me in a (single) starter, drop into my ask, ask me to write one for you, respond to a meme — whichever you'd prefer!
✖ IMPORTANT ✖
Please DO NOT assume that because my character is doing something, I as the writer —
approve of it
am romanticising it
have a kink with regard to it
think it is okay for anyone to ever do ever
There are a lot of things that I may write that might not be suitable and will be tagged as such. There will probably be a seperate page for my wishlist of things I'd like to thread about but also a list of things that will not show up here based off of my comfort level IRL.
✖ ALSO IMPORTANT ✖
I work full-time at a high-end/high-volume bakery as one of the shift leads and the main closing manager-- which means I get out of work late. Due to this, and the upcoming holiday season, I unfortunately will not be speedy with my replies-- if this is your expectation, then I’m probably not the right kind of roleplay partner for you.

ABOUT THE MUN
Hello all! I go by Cali here on this little blog of mine! I'm 22 years of age and go by she/her or they/them. Whichever of the two you prefer. I'm located in PST, residing in Southern California.
I've been roleplaying on tumblr for about eight years now, since 2011. However, I started roleplaying back in 2007. This means I have about 12+ years of roleplaying experience.
I do have social media as well, certain ones can be given upon request but some do require a friendship of sorts! However, if y'all just want my discord, feel free to ask.
