[div style="width: 420px; margin: auto; text-align: justify"]//hi it's late (I'm drafting this at almost 2 am) his tags are dated idk what's going on in fl other than Lots O Drama
He suspected Blake didn't appreciate his extended absences. She wouldn't be the first, but he hoped she'd be the last. He didn't like doing this to people, appearing for a night or two then vanishing for a month or two. But there was no such thing as settling down for him - his retirement would last an eternity and would begin when he slowed down enough that he couldn't keep himself alive. That was the life he'd chosen years ago, and it was the life he'd chosen ever since.
He could have settled down with Emma or with Sam, helped raise his family. But instead he only visited when he could. Now there would be a third (or potentially, third and fourth) child that got to suffer through him constantly going through a rotating door. He didn't want to be a bad father, but a good one would put his life, his dreams, on hold for his child. Maybe the best he could hope for was a neutral one. Ceddy and Cade and Blake's would love him when they were little, grow up a bit and hate him for being gone, then finish growing up and understand why. Maybe then he could have real relationships with them. If he was still kicking.
"Why are we here?" The voice belonged to his son. He was eight. And now he had the misfortune of having no one but Danny.
"To see a woman." Hope that she and the baby were okay. Hope that she could look after Cade, just for a little while. Until he figured something permanent out.
"That's that you said at the last place, too." Cade grumbled, pulling his coat tighter around himself.
A soft half-laugh huffed past Danny's lips. Ah, Emma wasn't too pleased to see him darkening her doorstep at the best of times, but with Sam's son in tow? He was shocked she'd let Ceddy meet her brother. "You'll learn that someday, son. There's always women." Even when you tried to avoid breaking another heart.
Cade wrinkled his nose. "And why's that?"
"I ask myself that every day. C'mon, the Lodge isn't too far now." The sooner they were there, the sooner they could get warmed up. The sooner he would find out if Blake... there were too many ways to end that sentence.
[spoiler=TAGS AND INFORMATION — UPDATED JULY THIRTIETH]General — where to go from here what road to travel on?
▪ Daniel Hargrove | Introduced solely as Danny, dislikes other nicknames
▪ Designated Male | Primarily uses he/him pronouns but will accept any
▪ 28 years old | October 6th, 2011 | Libra | Ages real time
▪ Member of Flintlock Lodge
Physical — i spent my whole life choosing and i always chose wrong
♦ HUMAN | Health: 100%
— Danny is a pretty big dude, with broad shoulders and standing at 6'3". He has both incredibly pale skin that burns easily and pale hair that is pretty obviously cut with a knife, as it's choppy and uneven. He typically wears whatever t-shirt and pants that are semi-clean, pairing it off with the Edgy Man's Black Leather Jacket and boots. Lastly, he is almost never seen without the beige scarf wrapped around his neck.
— minor injuries: n/a
— major injuries: n/a
Important Info — will i try to have the will to be alive?
▪ Things in his tags are under construction and may be updated or changed, particularly in this section.
▪ Essentially a bounty hunter that goes after "the worst of the worst".
▪ Danny's opinions, thoughts, motivations and actions are completely ic and do not represent the roleplayer's.
Recent Events — will i try because i've never seen the light?
— 7.21.40: Was hired to help investigate a murder in Flintlock Lodge [subject to change]
Personality — blow it to the ground and it's now you see
▪ On the surface, it seems like there's not that much to love about Danny, as most of the traits he displays are unpleasant, from his rampant apathy and general distaste for nearly everything, to his irritability and short fuse, to the arrogance he possesses, to the blunt and nearly aggressive way with which he interacts with people. Underneath his assholishness, however, is someone that will stand by the things he believes and the people he cares about, willing to die and kill for them. He's incredibly loyal, protective and stubborn. That only scratches the surface, however, but for space's sake it'll be left at that.
▪ Adaptable, confident, dedicated, loyal, protective, repentant, vigilant
▪ Blunt, bold, distrusting, dry, introverted, outspoken, stubborn, neutral
▪ Aggressive, apathetic, asocial, cocky, reckless, ruthless, temperamental
Relationships — you spent your whole life taking the best of me
— Angelica Hargrove x Reid Jackson
— Bisexual | Biromantic | Poly
— Single | No Crushes | Looking for flings, not relationships
— Father of Mercedes and Cade Hargrove
— Everyone starts out neutral in Danny's eyes, able to either garner his respect and loyalty or distaste and distrust. Frankly, he's quick to dislike and distrust people, and it's a rare person that receives his admiration; once they have it it's hard for them to lose it.
Interaction — where'd you go? where's your home?
▪ Physically hard | Mentally Medium-hard
▪ Describe level of training [WIP]
▪ Describe fighting style/weapons [WIP]
▪ No kill/capture/maim without permission
▪ To attack, [member=8265]DANNY —[/member] & attack in underlined #433c43
