Sunday Gen Texts


texting meme

You’ve got your TFLN, you’ve got your sexting, now here’s the meme for all those gen texts, phone calls, voicemails, pictures of your cats, and whatever else your little heart can come up with, because who doesn't like a little old fashioned friendly texting. (Or enemy texting, if that's more your bag.)

instructions: What it says on the tin! Leave a comment with your character, include preferences, a start, absolutely nothing or whatever you want. Run around and reply to others. Lather, rinse, repeat.

( on ep 6, let me know if you want to avoid spoilers. )
underachievement: i want you with me fiddy-fiddy ♥ (you're my gritty witty city kitty!)

finished ep 6, taking a lil break

clad: (3)

Trish wants an interview.

Her phone broken?


[ that came out meaner than intended. ]

oh how i long for those halcyon episode 6 days now

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-04 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ buuut meaner than deserved? nah ]

She cashed in a favor.
Last one she's gonna get.

[ a bigger part of him than he's willing to admit begs to differ. there's a long delay before he hits send. ]

Tell her unless her listenership is all uptown, I'm not interested.
underachievement: please beat yourself in the face with rusty chains (in lieu of flowers)

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-04 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Close enough to a no for me.

[ jess stares at the screen afterwards, fingers hovering over the keyboard, but she can't think of anything better to say than "glad your head's okay" and that sucks. once too much time has passed for her to reasonably follow up it's kind of a relief ]
clad: (2)

btw there are some quality fluff memes going around rn, we need to get on that

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-04 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess that answers that. Your phone isn't broken.

[ horrible thing to say part 2. technically, he bailed. ran, more like. ]
underachievement: to everybody in this room: never betray me, and it's time to go. (2 things i wanna make very clear)

yeah we could do that we could make that done

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-05 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
Neither's yours.

[ she doesn't blame him for him taking off. right call to make. it continues to not feel great though. ]
clad: (Default)

it's on our donezo list. also i need to correct his icon situation

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-06 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah.

[ if he knew she thought that he'd feel even worse. ]

Some peope call this a draw.

[ a dead wife, being dragged into the kilgrave mess, and not being able to let go of anything has a way of making him be crueler than intended. the last few weeks are reminding him running away instead of dealing is all he's been doing. ]
Edited 2016-10-06 02:28 (UTC)
underachievement: for dragging us into this hellish spergatory with you (thank you Danny)

and i need to make it worse for you specifically

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-06 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ quite honestly jess thinks he's being borderline magnanimous. and that she can't abide ]

I shot you in the head.
clad: (12)

i mean, if you aren't doing it just for me i'd be disappointed

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-06 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
And I would've killed you if you hadn't.

You did what you had to.


[ if places were switched, he'd probably do the same. whatever that means for all of this. ]
underachievement: please someone get attacked by a bird (30 minutes in and still no bird attacks)

not to mention just plain dissed

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-06 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
I know.

[ this next part, turns out, is not any easier to write than it is to say. maybe harder. first and last time for everything. ]

I didn't get to say Sorry [ for doing what she had to, for dragging him into the fray so that she had to do it at all, and.... shit, everything. even the stuff she doesn't deserve to apologize for. still a piece of shit. ]
clad: (10)

that's the dis- in disappointed.

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-06 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Do me a favor, Jones. You owe me that at least.

[ the very, bottom of the barrel least. he's still bitter because letting go is hard mode. ]
underachievement: deep blue sea you next tuesday (wow topical shark news)

nothing gets by you

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-06 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ what is she, an errand girl now? admittedly, bristling is better than miring. ]

I'm not doing one of those bullshit hallmark favors
clad: (4)

im assuming you said that in your jess voice

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-06 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ he's shaking his head at his phone with a smile. you're a hard woman, jess. ]

When I say "I forgive you", believe it.

Knock one off the self-loathing check list and keep it off.
underachievement: what arrre... pizza boxes thinkin about? (idea for a new pixar movie)

haven't you heard? that's just my voice now

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-06 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
[ it's a tall order considering the circumstances under which he said it to her before. struggling with it is a disservice to luke. ]

I believe it. [ can't promise the rest ]

I'm also gonna kill Trish.
clad: (5)

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-07 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't just believe.

[ there's a quote from a beloved deceased pop on the tip of his tongue he doesn't bother repeating.

he follows up 15 minutes later with the non-sequitur to end all sequiturs. ]


You think I would've learned my lesson.
underachievement: and guess what? i'm goin kosher cuz jessie don't dig on swine (this whole place reeks of bacon)

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-07 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she isn't sure what the hell else she's supposed to do with it but figures finding out won't make it any easier. that's the end of it, the real end of it, to the point that she expects the next message she receives to be from trish or malcolm. it's not and she's honestly annoyed because she knows she's going to reply ]

Cleaning out Harlem's not exactly the same
[ she assumes it's about something different, not the revenge tear that had him barreling towards kilgrave, but what does she know? putting him in her blindspot was the least she could do ]
You in trouble?
clad: (12)

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-07 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ revenge is revenge. it's easy to pretend the fight is different when it's more about you and less about the people you're helping. she knows better than anyone that he's not above a vendetta.

and that's what makes this conversation hard to have but needed all at once. why not lead with the understatement of the century? ]


No more than that purple fool got me into.

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-07 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[ hey at least it was over avenging reva and not protecting jess. makes the stupidity easier to forgive, on the occasions she allows herself to get angry over his involvement and not drunk, morose or self-destructive. tonight she'll probably shuffle through all those greatest hits. ]

That's a low bar.
Goddamn rocket launcher low. Who got you involved?

[ after making a clean break from her shitshow of a life, she can't imagine kicking off a gang war was a conscious priority ]
clad: (5)

[personal profile] clad 2016-10-20 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[ names start and get deleted in his phone, quickly. there's no one to blame for any of this, not even those idiot kids cottonmouth used. maybe pop showed him the door, but he's the one who took the advice and went forward. ]

I got myself involved.
Trish knew that, you'd think she'd still want me on her show?
underachievement: watch your stuff, back to the wall, face to the door (learned everything i needed in 1st grade)

[personal profile] underachievement 2016-10-22 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ of course he'd say that. fucking goddamn piece of shit hero motherfucker son of this is what she gets for stalking widowers ]

Even more.
You're a pair. Steer clear.
[ trish gets involved, jess gets involved, and then there's- involvement. ]
