Om Barbatos - Blog Posts
There is nothing that reminds me more of the beauty of Autistic Hyperfixations, than what my past week/month has been.
A long time ago, I started playing an Otome Game called Obey Me! (It's a good game, with compelling writing, and a good workaround for representing You/The Main Character). One of the characters I got very attached to was the Butler, Barbatos. His love of different teas, and the variety, and his insistence on high quality tea had me curious about it all; I much prefer a Flavoured Water of some kind, I find it generally easier to drink.
So, I looked into Tea Quality, Loose Leaf Teas; and then High Quality, Full Leaf Looseleaf teas that have no crumbs, just pure quality no-bitter aftertaste. And recently, I bought a whole lot of tea, enough to last me to the end of the year, because I have been wanting it, and I love the quality, and it's been worth saving up for it.
How does this all tie together? Well ... Since I could afford it, and I just got a whole bunch of high quality teas ... Why not buy the Obey Me! Barbatos plushie so he can enjoy my high quality teas with me?
I look forward to seeing him in June. And I'll be sure to have a nice glass of Shō Pu-er ready for him when he gets here ♥
When you think of Barbatos, one word comes to mind. Kind.
Other people might not think of that specific word. You’re sure that someone like Mammon would describe Barbatos as cynical or frightening. But not you, no. To you, Barbatos is kind.
He doesn’t expect anything from you, he never has. You have so much on your shoulders, so much pressure from all three worlds somehow falling on you. And he’s always there for you, never expecting you to be or do anything.
If you need to cry, he’ll wipe your tears. If you need to talk, he’ll listen. If you need to shout, he’ll make you some tea for your strained voice. If you need to be held, he’ll hold you. Anything you’ve ever needed he has always done, he will continue to do.
Because he loves you. Unconditionally, Barbatos loves you. He doesn’t want anything but your love and he doesn’t even expect that. He just loves loving you. And there could never be anything more precious.
To you, Barbatos is always kind…until you don’t want him to be anymore. When you’ll need to lose your head, he’ll be there to make it spin. All you have to say is “I need you to fix me”, and fix you he will.
He’ll use his softest silk to tie your hands above your head. He’ll kiss your neck, grip your waist, bite hickeys so dark you’ll have to seek Asmo’s makeup skills when trying to cover them. He can make you dizzy without even having to slip his hands below your belt. He knows what you like. He knows what you need.
His hand will caress your waist, his lips will ravish your neck. He’ll kiss over the bites that he leaves, making sure you know you’re loved with every infliction of pain. You don’t have time to focus on one sensation before he’s quickly giving you another. It’s dizzying and it breaks you so good. And once he comes up for air, you feel whole again.
And he didn’t even have to touch you, he never does. Of course, if you asked him to, he would. He’d love nothing more than to fuck you into a daze. But if that’s not what you need, he won’t force it on you.
The men you’d loved before had never made you feel like this. No amount of kisses or sex or words said by them could help you feel better. They didn’t try like Barbatos does. And he does it effortlessly. He loves you effortlessly.
And you could never need anything more.
I am about five seconds away from just drawing all the Barbatos art I keep trying to speak into existence.
