Grabbed the wrong Phone meme.

Oops, this isn't my phone! Meme



It's happened once or twice right? Crowded place, lots of people, and there are always those popular phones it seems everyone has. You suddenly realize you are late, or someone you are avoiding comes in.

You rush out grabbing your phone! Except you get to your destination and realize OOPS! It isn't your phone.

What do you do? Do you rush back hoping the person you were next to is still there? Do you have to try and find an important number to get a message to them? Or hey call your phone and hope they answer?

Pick a scenario below and run with it.

1. First contact: Get a hold of the person!
2. Set up a meet and switch phones!


Do you just hand them off, or strike up a conversation? Do you make a new friend? Or do you meet Cranky McCrankyson?

It's all in the fun of finding out!

Enjoy (hopefully)!

It's really the least I could do. [She turns towards the counter to place their order.] Some kids would've run off with my phone and sold it on Ebay.

[Wait...] You know what Ebay is, right?

[He shakes his head no ruefully.]

No idea. They do not have that where I'm from.

[As well as a whole lot of other things, but he's slowly learning about this strange new world.]

You have a phone, but you don't have Ebay. What, do you guys live in the past? [As much as Melissa enjoyed growing up in the 80's and 90's, she kind of enjoys online shopping a bit too much to let it go.]

[Garrett laughs softly, a smooth sound that suggests he doesn't have things to find humorous as often as he'd like to in his life.]

Yes, it is like that. A very, very different place. [He pauses.] It sounds crazy. All else think so.

Sorry again for the slow ;;

I can't blame them. Compared to here, it certainly sounds different... [She tilts her head to the side slightly.]

Are you gonna go back anytime soon? [Is it even possible for him to?]

Slides in on the late train...

[personal profile] cinereoargenteus 2013-10-31 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
I might. Just need to find the right, uh, door. And, uh, the key. [Those aren't the right words, but they're the closest ones he has.]

Stuck here till I find 'em.

it's a pretty cool place to be, so i can't blame you

[personal profile] alwaysonmccall 2013-11-01 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

... If you're stuck here for a while, why don't you come back to my place for dinner? I'm sure my son won't mind. [Plus, uh, she might be able to find him some clothes that don't look as if he'd come straight from Comic-Con. Not that she knows any better about the pelt.]

[He scuffs his bare feet for a moment, teenage pride wrestling with the undeniable knowledge he's all alone in this world. Finally, he looks up and nods.]

Yes. Will do. But do not want food for nothing. Can do something in exchange. [The words charity case hangs unsaid.]

[It doesn't need to be said! Melissa gets the hint loud and clear.] Of course. Scott's been kind of slacking on chores lately, so I don't think he'd mind if you helped out tonight.

[The better question was when her kid would show up, thanks to him being a werewolf that wandered all over town at odd hours of the night. God, she knew he did important work but it never stopped her from worrying.]

That suits I right down to the ground. Much obliged, ma'am. [Garrett gives Melissa a grateful smile. There's a great and wonderful sense of comfort in finding kindness in such a place as this strange new world.]
