This Is a Barret Appreciation Post

[rynling]

For my class on Final Fantasy X this semester I've been using screencaps from my current Steam playthrough for my PowerPoint slideshows, but as I've been putting together my last (thank god) presentation I realized that I'm missing a crucial shot. I had a vague memory of saving someone's screengrab from Tumblr a few years ago, so I went into my old "Final Fantasy" image folder to see if it was there. In fact it was, along with dozens of screencaps of Barret being his beautiful self.







I never really thought of Barret as being one of my favorite Final Fantasy characters, but the results of my pre-2014 internet magpie tendencies prove otherwise. I have like one picture of Sephiroth, maybe three or four of Cloud, and a good half dozen of Tifa, but most of the FFVII images in that folder have something to do with Barret. Honestly I still love him, and I regret nothing.

Barret's playing a bit part in my Long Fic Of Long, and honestly writing him is the most fun I've had in several chapters. He deserves his own fic, truly.

Good to know! I've had On Broken Wings bookmarked since the start of the year, and I'm really looking forward to jumping into it this summer.

If you ever need to take a break from your longfic, please consider writing a short Sephiroth/Barret story, because
