Text Meme

[memes4all]

That's it. Just text.

We have the TFLN, the misfired texts and the sexting, but what about just texts?

You want to text that person, for whatever reason. Because you need to ask something, because you forgot to tell them something, because you miss them. Because you are in danger, because you need to know where they are or simply because you want to share this fact or story that's hilarious and can't wait another minute to be shared.

Serious, romantic, scary, funny, you pick the reason. Just text!


The Rules:

1; Comment with your character's name and series on the subject line.

2; Other characters will reply to yours by sending them a text.

3; It can be anything, you decide! Group texts are also possible!

4; Profit!

[There are advantages to always being underestimated, you know! Izaya would gladly trade places.

Admittedly, Izaya is nuts.]

There was a girl who ran into you not long ago. I don't know if she was she was an esper or something [spoilers: he does know] but she seems to have had some idea of your... special status, shall we say?

[marksofdeath]

[Would Hisoka want to trade places? Hisoka has his problems, but he's sane.]

It's not so different from being alive. It's just a different world. There's rules to follow just like everything else.

[hitorabu]

That goes for all dead? Or is it a heaven/hell/purgatory kind of deal?

[marksofdeath]

You're asking if you have to pay for your crimes. Is this some excuse to do as you want?

[hitorabu]

Not at all! Paying for crimes or not, it's existence that I want to know about. Do we all go to some kind of afterlife?

[marksofdeath]

Everybody is judged after death. It's not as spiritual as they make it seem, but all souls face judgment.

[hitorabu]

Then, to face that judgment, it's imperative that they continue to exist, and have some level of consciousness, correct?

Thank you! You've reassured me a great deal.

[marksofdeath]

Don't be an idiot and rush to your death just because you know that.

[hitorabu]

Oh, I'm not quite that desperate to die.

[And he still has a plan or two going to sneak into heaven. It's not a strict requirement - as long as he exists, he'll be happy - but heaven does sound more pleasant than hell, if he gets to pick his afterlife.

Not enough to live a saintly life, though. That just isn't worth it.]

That said, I'd rather not spend eternity as an old man, either...

[If he has to kill himself before getting that old, he will. Though that's presuming he won't get killed first - and he won't deny that there's a good chance of that, considering both his line of work, and other aspects of how he chooses to live his life.]

[marksofdeath]

In the end, it's your choice, but don't blame it on me when you get here. It's not like you get a second chance or anything romantic like that.

[hitorabu]

[Manly man, manly man... It's almost like you care! <3]

Your concern is very flattering. But as long as I continue to exist, it'll take whatever comes.

[marksofdeath]

[Pft, as if. He's too busy being 'tsun' to be 'dere'. Usually.]

I didn't say I cared, I said not to blame me. Don't talk to me and make stupid assumtpions.

[hitorabu]

[Ahhh, but even that makes Izaya so happy! Humans don't completely lose their human touch, even after death~! That explains about Celty, too - though she's still a weak parody of the species at best, and who knows what the head will be like.]

Is it stupid to assume you care, when you're trying to keep me from making poor life choices? Or death choices, as the case may be.

[marksofdeath]

That's not what I'm doing. I see enough cases, you think one more's going to bother me? It's a stupid reason, but if you're an idiot, I'm not going to change that.

[hitorabu]

[How fortunate that this is text. Izaya is laughing so much right now.]

I suppose not.

It's been a very enlightening conversation! Thank you, Mr. Dead Man~

[marksofdeath]

I'll know if you do anything stupid with the information.

[hitorabu]

And if I use it for all kinds of terrible things, then what - you'll kill me?

[marksofdeath]

There's rules behind life and death. If you break them, you'll pay consequences.

[hitorabu]

Don't even worry about that! I'll make sure to bend them veeeery carefully.

[marksofdeath]

I'm saying not to bend them at all, idiot!

[Don't make his job harder.]

[hitorabu]

[Really... Don't complain, Manly Deadman! Don't you have an eternity to waste? You should be grateful that he's giving you some entertainment!]

I see no reason to listen to people who resort to name-calling.

[marksofdeath]

[He has a library. And a person to babysit. And a Shinigami's pay is low.]

Fine. If you try to mess with that balance, you'll get a visit from things that will set it right. Will facts work?

[hitorabu]

[Well, don't blame Izaya for your poor career choices, honestly. :T]

Oh, something like a grim reaper?

I know one of those already. She's quite useful.

[marksofdeath]

[Beats being dead.

Who is this guy?]

No, like a Shinigami. We're only useful when it comes to fixing mistakes.

[hitorabu]

Oh, you're a shinigami?!

[He may or may not have heard as much already, but that doesn't mean he can't rub in how the other let it slip.]

I admit that my grim reaper assistant is from another corner of the world, but surely there can't be that much difference between you?

[Well, there's the fact that she's a dullahan who's missing her head. A head that he happens to own and hide from her... but why fuss the details?]
