Wrong Number

The Wrong Recipient Meme





Oops. It happens to all of us. In a hurry, kind of drunk, too tired – for whatever reason, you've sent a text to the wrong recipient and it's up to you to do damage control.




¤ Post with your character. Name, canon and any preferences in the subject line.
¤ Others choose one of the options below and reply to your character with a text message that wasn't intended for them.
¤ Communication or miscommunication ensues?
¤ Profit!


1. talk dirty | "baby, you were such a stud yesterday"
Texting is a great way to make your partner spend the rest of their meeting thinking about exactly how steamy action was last night... Unless you sent it to the wrong number, of course. How to explain that one?

2. those dates | "Don't forget lunch at 2! :-)"
Easiest way to arrange meetings, confirming them or just saying thanks for a good time is by cell. Even easier? To screw it up when the invitation reaches the wrong person... Or perhaps your mishap lands you an entirely new date!

3. anger management | "OMFG, you really are an asshole!"
They’ve pissed you off royally, so someone deserves a piece of your mind. Poor recipient, having to put up with a dressing-down of that magnitude. Especially if it wasn't actually intended for them.

4. my condolences | "Jane, I'm so sorry about your aunt."
Someone lost a relative, got broken up with or didn't get the grades they'd hoped for, so you quickly text them your heartfelt sympathy. Let's just hope that the recipient actually has lost their aunt...

5. well done | "I heard about it from my mom. You go, girl!"
They aced their exams, just got published or they had a baby. Something definitely deserving of your congratulations. Hopefully the one receiving it will appreciate the recognition of something they probably didn't do.

6. auto correct | "Dad says we're having pussy tonight."
A completely ordinary message. The concert was amazing, you're running late... Autocorrect just happened to change one little word into something completely different. Something that’s even more difficult to decipher for the wrong recipient.

7. wildcard | "ok"
Want another scenario, something combined or something completely different? Knock yourself out!

americanclassic: (Judging - 1)

[personal profile] americanclassic 2015-10-07 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I'd like to avoid any part of my person being hexed. Especially those.

[Just because he didn't use them didn't mean he didn't want to one day, gosh, Wanda.]
skrata: (you'll wish the light had never)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 02:54 pm (UTC)(link)
you should have thought about that before you told me you were single. your fiance's very pretty maybe i;ll date her after she leaves your sorry ass.
americanclassic: (Oh? - 1)

[personal profile] americanclassic 2015-10-07 02:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[...]

Wanda, I'm pretty sure you have the wrong number.
skrata: (and you've learned)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
dont you try to get out of this stevie. im at your apartment helping her pack your things.

[this is why she shouldn't date people with the same name as her coworkers.]

Steve, not Stevie. I'll even take Captain over that. And I don't have a girlfriend OR fiance. Especially not one that lives with me. Check your call display, Maximoff.
skrata: (the nature of the game)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aaaand now she wants to sink into the ground.]

Oh my God, Captain I'm so so sorry. I am SO sorry.
americanclassic: (Grin - Smug 1)

You're going to be, come training tomorrow.
skrata: (and the congregation of your fear)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I always am.

Would it help if I said I wasn't going to literally hex his balls off?
americanclassic: (Sitting - Thinking 1)

[personal profile] americanclassic 2015-10-07 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm less concerned with the state of someone's genitals who seems to not care where he puts them than I am with you not being fully aware of who you were talking to. What if that had been sensitive information?
skrata: (you'd better say my name)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't have been discussing it over texts?
americanclassic: (Arms Folded - Down 1)

[personal profile] americanclassic 2015-10-07 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
But hexing a man's equipment is okay via text?
skrata: (and the congregation of your fear)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
He knows I'm pagan and he's very superstitious?

[Yeah she messed up and she knows it.]
americanclassic: (Profile - 2)

Does he know you're capable of ripping his spine out of his body?
skrata: (and what is your objection here)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You're the last person I expected a Mortal Kombat reference from.
americanclassic: (Look - 1)

[personal profile] americanclassic 2015-10-07 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
A what reference?
skrata: (feral and untamed)

[personal profile] skrata 2015-10-07 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
A series of very violent video games. You play a fighter in a tournament that spans the universe, and each different character has different ways of killing their opponents. One of the ways is ripping their spine out.

... That explains a bit about this generation.
skrata: (if you don't believe)

You should see the costumes.
