Misfired Text Meme

There you are, sending a text, no big deal, right? Well...unless it goes to the wrong person (oops). But at least it makes for an interesting conversation?

Options:

1. The Drunk Text- you really should have let your friends take your phone away from you
   
2. The Breakup Text- downside: your current partner doesn't know they aren't your partner anymore. upside: maybe this person is available???
   
3. The Funny Text- it was just a joke!
   
4. The Sexy Text- okay, now they've seen you naked and this is awkward
   
5. The 3am Text- you couldn't sleep and now you're musing on the mysteries of the world and had an epiphany that just can't wait until morning
   
6. The Needy Text- you just want someone to talk to
   
7. The Accidentally-On-Purpose Text- Did you really send it by accident or do you just want them to think you did?
   
8. The Meetup Text- Uh-oh, you just told a random stranger to meet you for drinks! (or dinner, or lunch, or a concert or...)
   
9. The Autocorrect Fail- just what it says on the tin
   
10. The Anything Goes Text- you do what you want

When you post, comment whether you want to be the accidental texter or textee. Feel free to include a starter text. Have fun!

here are some possible ideas

[Sadly, Bruce actually heads down to the basement to check on Tony while he responds to the text.

Hartley?

[timetopaythepiper]

Uh, yes? Who else would call this late to tell you something like that?

Besides all your other sketchy friends, I guess.

[hulkbusted]

all my other sketchy friends is a good point

doesn't answer the questions of why you were the one restraining him in my basement or how you got out in one piece

A minute later...

which he are we talking about? Tony, right?

[timetopaythepiper]

I didn't restrain him alone. I had help. I was just the only one who thought you deserved some warning.

He just stares at that last text in confusion for a couple minutes.

What? No. Mick. He was waving around the heat gun and it was making everyone nervous, so we knocked him out and tied him up.

This isn't Snart, is it? I'm sorry, you're going to have to tell me who you are. For some reason I have you listed as Cutie Booty in my phone.

[hulkbusted]

Cutie... Booty?

Bruce

[timetopaythepiper]

Oh. Sorry. I was drinking earlier and thought it would be a good idea to change all the names in my contact list on my burner phone.

[hulkbusted]

right. I guess this means I can go back upstairs. of Tony is tied up down there,i don't want to know

[timetopaythepiper]

Why would you think I tied your friend up? He doesn't strike me as the violent drunk type.

A reckless drunk, maybe.

[hulkbusted]

He doesn't always think before he speaks.

And even when he thinks, what comes out of his mouth sometimes deserves a little electrical tape. And Bruce likes the man.

[timetopaythepiper]

Okay, he has a point.

Okay, then the real question is why would I hang out with your friend without you?

[hulkbusted]

Don't take this wrong, but I can't exactly predict what you'd be doing, with whom, or why. Just think about the first night we met.

[timetopaythepiper]

My behavior that night was an anomaly. Normally everything I do is planned down to the tiniest detail.

[hulkbusted]

Be that as it may, it's not as though I know what your plans are on the day to day.

Their friendship didn't exactly work that way. He wasn't 100% sure how it worked.

[timetopaythepiper]

Well, I'm glad you don't think I'm predictable. That said, spending time with your friends without you will never be a plan of mine.

I might be reformed now, but heroes still make me nervous.

[hulkbusted]

Anyone who believes he's a hero *should* make you nervous.

You still have an open invitation to visit me. I have no illusions of heroism.

[timetopaythepiper]

I think you might be the only one who doesn't buy into the hero thing.

But thanks. I might do that. It would be nice to hang out with someone I don't have to tie up afterwards. Unless that's your thing.

[hulkbusted]

There have to be better ways to say goodbye than that. I spent too many years avoiding restraint to go for it recreationally.

[timetopaythepiper]

I was kidding, Bruce. I'm not really into that sort of thing these days either.

[hulkbusted]

I may need a new font for facetiousness.

Either that or I need to cultivate a new appreciation for electrical tape.

[timetopaythepiper]

Wow, I think I like this side of you.

But no, after the thing with Mick, I don't ever want to see electrical tape again. I think I've become vanilla in my old age.

[hulkbusted]

The sarcastic side or the potentially kinky side?

[timetopaythepiper]

No reason it can't be both. Though I'm a bit more familiar with your sarcastic side than your potentially kinky side.

[hulkbusted]

Probably because you can see the sarcastic side from almost any angle. If you want to see the other side, we'll have to be in the same city more often.

[timetopaythepiper]

You know, that could easily be arranged.

[hulkbusted]

Are you thinking about spending more time in New York?
