His name is Barret, by the way. No joke ocs, no erps, romance is alright

Laura: hi barret. it been a while

"Laura?!"

yep its me.

He smiles and hugs her. "How have you been?"

*hugs back* i've .... been places

"Oh?"

yea

Rene: barret?

"Rene?"

Rene: yep.

"It's been forever!"

Rene: I know

Stalker: "Yes?"

"U-Uh, are you Stalker?"

Stalker: "Yes."

"Really? Do you remember me?"

Stalker: "Not really..."

"Oh...Well, I'm Barrett."

Stalker: "Your name sounds familiar."
(I have a friend name Barret irl)

(same lmao
We're kinda friends, only because he's the one other boy in class who calls me by my name and right pronouns)
"U-Uh...I think we were friends a while ago..."

Stalker: "Ok..."

Cade: :O BARRET *hug*

"Cade!"

Cade: I haven’t seen you in so long!

"I know! How have you been?"

Cade: well, I’m still looking for a girlfriend. The problem is that everyone in this city tells me that I’m “not a real guy”. So anytime I try to get into a relationship, people just bully my partner into suicide. *all of a sudden, you notice… a gun? No, he would never!*

"Cade..." His face turns angry. "Why would people do that?! Of course you're a really guy!"

Cade: I know, but with the new 3 quarters act (a law which requires 3/4 of the jury to have a bias against some minority) I can’t even take it to court!

"That's stupid!"

Cade: I know! In other news, I have a court case tomorrow because I asked for a sex change surgery, one on Tuesday because I wouldn’t let a man snap my neck for saying I didn’t like Evan Skeie (the current president at the time), and did I mention my father disowned me?

(irl I know nothing about law but I'm trying)
Barrett stands up. "I would."

He runs over and hugs Cade. "It's not your fault."

(The court case begins. Will you legitimately defend your childhood friend, which could result in both your deaths, or will you put up a bad defense, lose a good friend, but save your ass?)

(I'm gonna defend Cade
He's got the army on his side. Lieutenant general is I think the third highest rank you could have. My dad's in the army 😅)

Judge: would anyone like to make an opening statement?

He follows, fists clenched in anger.

Judge: listen and listen good. If you don’t put up THE WORST DEFENSE YOU HAVE, I have contacts who will make sure you look like a sponge once you are out of here. That woman is the spawn of the devil, and needs to be treated as such

(Nope LTG (lieutenant general) is a three star, not too powerful)

He slaps the judge across the face. "You know, I do as well. I could make you lose your job. I used to be a lieutenant general, by the way. I could take you to court." He smiles cruelly. "You're the spawn of the devil here. Keep this all in mind." He walks back over to Cade.

Before he walks over, he sees a firing squad lining up.
Cade: *through tears* I’m… so sorry…

He stands there shocked before hugging Cade again. "I can help you with all of this, if you want. Those three(?) years of law school weren't for nothing."

Cade: well, thanks. *he hugs back*
*the day of the first case*
*Barret is an attorney*
Judge: well well well, looks like somebody decided to give the inhuman freak one more person to feel guilty about. Come with me.

Xonsce: "I... I don't know what to say."

"A-Are you Xonsce?"

Xonsce: "Yeah..."

"Do you remember me? My name's Barrett."

Xonsce: "Yeah, i remember you..."

"Really?!"

Xonsce: "Yeah..."

"That's great!"

Xonsce: "My condition's gotten worse, though..."

"O-Oh..."

Xonsce: "Yeah..."

"How have you been, other than that?"

Xonsce: "Pretty good."

"That's good."

...

Xonsce: "Yeah."
