The Midnight Texting Meme It's the middle of the night and you're trying to catch some z's — or brooding alone in the alleys, as one does — when your phone dings and suddenly a stranger or a friend is texting you. What could they possibly want at this hour? Is it important? Stupid? Are they drunk or maybe just needy? Do they need help hiding a body??? Pick up your phone and find out! Rules: ● Post with your character's name and canon on the subject line, indicate preferences as needed ● Tag others ● Have fun!

Speaking as someone who has heard his thoughts? Very.

And as much as I hope this distraction and diversion is at least helping with whatever it is you have on your mind, I have to ask again: would you like to talk about it?

[touchofrogue]

I'm still deciding if it's worth risking the Vegas rule's inevitable consequences.

[atombomb]

Even after all that? I think you're safe.

[touchofrogue]

Are you together with Scott in every universe we know of so far?

[atombomb]

Not all of them. There's at least one or two where he's with Emma and those are just the ones we know about. Who knows who else he might be with in others.

[touchofrogue]

But in the ones where he's with Emma, you were still with him at some point, right?

[atombomb]

That part I'm not so sure about. All things considered, there's a good chance we'd never crossed paths in some of those universes.

[touchofrogue]

What about you? In those universes where he's with Emma, who are you with?

[atombomb]

Logan. Which isn't exactly surprising, I guess. Not who I'd choose, but those versions of Jean Grey don't have the same experiences as I do.

[touchofrogue]

Isn't it weird?
That it's always the same too people?

[ Look. Someone might have had a talk with one of her moms. And for once, it wasn't the blue one causing the trouble. ]

[atombomb]

Just the idea of there being other versions of me out there is weird, the fact that fate has pulled her to alternate versions of friends in this world is something else.

But we're supposed to believe that everything happens for a reason.

[ Sounds like quite the talk considering the late night conversation that has spawned from it. ]

[touchofrogue]

I think believing everything happens for a reason is a lot more cruel than the alternative.

[atombomb]

Maybe. It depends. Do you want to clue me in on what's got you so upset that you feel the need to work through your feelings via text in the middle of the night?

sorry, she is persnickety

[touchofrogue]

[ Nope. ]

If I wanted to do that, I'd have started there. Thanks anyway, Jean. Go back to bed.

[ It didn't matter which version of Jean Gray it was. The divide between them was one Rogue felt sharply. This had been a mistake to begin with, really. ]
