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!

[She looks at her phone. The boys had burners that swapped numbers so often, she can't be blamed for mis-texting, but she's curious who she accidentally got to reply.]

wherever you are

[easily]

mystic falls [She's not dumb enough to give the address of the Mikealson mansion to a stranger.]

[sent_farfaraway]

[It takes Ruby a second to end up in the small town.]

not sure town square likes me with open bottles.

[easily]

[Rebekah doesn't respond, but instead, arrive a few seconds later.]

So you're the one who was messaging me.

[sent_farfaraway]

[She shrugs.]

I was bored. You replied.

[easily]

I was bored as well.

[sent_farfaraway]

Well, now we're here and we're bored.... but there's alcohol.

[easily]

Which does always help.

[sent_farfaraway]

So where to, blondie?

[easily]

"This way." And with that, she supposed she'd lead Ruby back to the mansion. If she was an issue, she'd take care of her.

[sent_farfaraway]

Ruby followed easily, watching the blond with a bit of curiosity. "Where in England are you from?"

[easily]

"All over. My family moved around a lot." Which is technically true, she and Nik never stayed in one place long.

[sent_farfaraway]

"There's a lot of that going around," she replies easily. Considering Sam and Dean and their two-man traveling road show.

"Still, this town doesn't seem to hit on Fodor's Best Small Towns."

[easily]

"No, it doesn't, does it? But our family has roots here, and my brother insisted on returning to it."

There are at least inklings of truth in that statement.

[sent_farfaraway]

"I haven't had family around in a while. Not that being on my own has many perks."

[easily]

"Everything has at least a few perks." She imagines sometimes, leaving her brother, but she doubts she could ever do it for long.

[sent_farfaraway]

"Well, maybe you can show me the ones you enjoy here in this town."

[easily]

"I suppose I could." It's not like she has anything better to do.

[sent_farfaraway]

"Good," Ruby replies easily. "I think we should get drinking first."

[easily]

She nods, grinning a little. "I agree."

[sent_farfaraway]

"How much further 'til we get to your place?" Because, the narration checked and they're still wandering.

[easily]

"Just another block." Whoops. All the wandering.

[sent_farfaraway]

Ruby nods and follows the girl.

[easily]

And soon enough, they get to the Mikealson mansion in all it's glory. Rebekah will let her in.

[sent_farfaraway]

Hooray. Ruby looks very impressed.

"So, this is definitely worth a toast."
