(july catch-all) oh, the misery

Who ⬤ shin(ichi okazaki) and you??
What ⬤ honestly, a lot. drug buying, learning how to fire a gun, playing music solo for the first time, the wax museum, and probably more to be added. two closed prompts as well!
When ⬤ july!
Where ⬤ tamamo, sutoku and shuten territories.
Content Warnings ⬤ drugs, first and foremost, there's a bender in here. sex is a topic that comes up in the songs he'll play, and it's shin, so honestly, his cws might apply.

How could it be jammed already??

[ lord, kid could rival barton in noisiness. he frowns, examining the gun further; it is, indeed, not jammed(tm). ]

Ah, I can teach you how to load it. [ presuming shin probably has a pack of bullets he purchased nearby. ] Or is this gonna be as fruitless as showing you how to use chopsticks—?

No!! Two seconds later and it may be too late for you.

[ -- it abruptly occurs to barton that shin may, if he's able to purchase one, use this for illegal activities, not just self-defense. but honestly, looking at him hiding his face, he doesn't think him intimidating enough to actually believe that a credible possibility... ]

I'm gonna demonstrate... You're gonna have to use your brain [ he knows you have one, shin ] and try to learn.
federates: (and a long stem rose)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-26 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Again??

[ he doesn't have a hard time imaging shinichi to be an easy target - which, frankly in barton's mind, necessitates further the importance him learning... ]

[ barton does as he'd said, narrating in the meanwhile: he loads just one round into the magazine, then he pushes it into place, eliciting a click. he pulls back the slide. he definitely plans on keeping the safety engaged for this little lesson, thanks. ]

Got it?
federates: (a box of chocolates)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-26 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
That happen here...?

[ barton unloads it. then he passes the gun - along with the bullet - to shin. ]

Now show me. [ he wants him to have it down!! ]
federates: (everybody got this)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-26 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[...] You can, but what if I'm not there in time?? It's better if you at least know!

[ constant vigilance, etc. ]

[ he picks the gun right back up again, offering it back to shin. ]

Show me how you hold it when you aim. If needed, I'll correct you.
federates: (now you're texting)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-26 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Ohh? Who said I liked you?? [ besides - ] I can't teleport!

[ otherwise, he does agree that he's fast and strong, thank you. as a result of shin's ability, he preens a little more than he might usually - the compliment actually garners a wide grin. ]

[ and what were you doin before, shin, just standing there... barton demonstrates how he would grip the gun, himself, and offers it over again. ]

Try!
federates: (that i hate)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-26 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Quiet.

[ he's responding with that because it's true. ... at least the part about the chopsticks. ]

[ barton stares at where shinichi's bullet struck. he can't earnestly tell if that was done intentionally or not - he hadn't been watching from a close enough vantage point. ]

Not a bad hit! If you'd been aiming to kill, maybe you'd have hit the femoral artery. Would've disabled 'em, at least.
federates: (b)

[ ah. so that's how it is ...

it's not something barton immediately, outwards reacts to, expression remaining inscrutable - of course not everyone's cut out for it, much less something they're willing to risk. but shin surely had come here for a reason, beyond just affirming that he doesn't like using a gun, right...?
]

Then don't carry a firearm - least, not a loaded one. Anytime you take a shot, yeah, you're risking that. [ he huffs a sigh, arms folding over his chest. ] But, gun or not, I still think you should have something on you to defend yourself.

[ goodness -

barton is - notoriously, predictably - not fantastic at this type of thing. but then, shin's not precisely asking for much. it is frustrating in a way he can't articulate, having encountered so many over the years that just can't bring themselves, either mentally or physically, to violence, even if only in self-defense. but that's the duty of people like him, isn't it?
]

[ he lets the kid rest against him for a moment, and he's quiet until he eventually puts a hand over his shoulder. ]

You already know what I told you. [ in guaranteeing whether he'd be able to arrive anywhere in time or not. barton resists another sigh. ] But, fine. You can always just give me a ring.
federates: (put yourself)

[personal profile] federates 2022-07-31 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ ah. the compliment does tend to bring about a greater reaction than it might usually, thanks to shin's ability. though he may be missing the significance of allowing him to rest, he grins broadly. it's a far cry from his previous quietude. ]

Ah ha ha, it's just my duty! Someone's gotta take it seriously!

[ he gives a little squeeze to shin's shoulder before letting his hand fall away. more lightheartedly, ]

We're gonna use up the rest of your ammo here, aren't we? [ -- even if it's, well. just him that does so. ]
