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!

Cute, Tony.

[now that he knows it's you he can be ever more distant.]

[st_a_rk]

Well, if you need anything, you know how to get in touch. Name of a good lawyer, best party planner in LA, personal flight consultation. That sort of thing.

[battyman]

Alfred does just fine, thanks.

[st_a_rk]

Keep it in mind, Mister Lone Wolf, just in case.

[battyman]

Since when did you become the type to care for other people?

[st_a_rk]

I'm not making you chicken noodle soup, buddy. But in case you missed it with your head buried in the sand, there's stuff going on out here in the rest of the world that it might pay to get caught up on.

[battyman]

Hm.

A woman stole my mother's pearls. Cat-burglar... disguised herself as one of the maids. She was good.

[st_a_rk]

Redhead?

[Just on the off chance.]

[battyman]

Dark hair. Her name is Selina Kyle.

[st_a_rk]

Then I guess I'll see if I can get the redhead on it.

[Natasha will make mincemeat out of her.]

[battyman]

[Yes, but who's to say the catsuit ladies wont get along and turn against the billionaires?]

Don't bother. I'm going to take care of it.

[st_a_rk]

Sure thing. I'll keep an ear to the ground, though.

[battyman]

Feel free.

[st_a_rk]

You're welcome. How is Alfred?

[battyman]

fine, last I checked.

[st_a_rk]

Tell him JARVIS misses him.

[battyman]

He'll be sad to here that.

[st_a_rk]

Pass the message on, Wayne. AIs love to talk on the phone, makes no difference to them.

[battyman]

I think Alfred would be more inclined to talk to Pepper before he and Jarvis meet up again.

[st_a_rk]

What, has no one ever shown him the Brave Little Toaster? Everyone loves a plucky AI.

[battyman]

He's not a big technology fan.
At least, your tech.

[st_a_rk]

What? Why?

[battyman]

You give it too much personality, I think.

[st_a_rk]

So cruel.

[battyman]

I'm you'll both make it through, Stark.
