THE TEXTING PICTURE PROMPT MEME
A picture says more than a thousand words...

You're in the middle of something, maybe not something important (though, who can say, maybe it was), but you were in the middle of this maybe unimportant thing anyway and it interrupts you, when your phone beeps and a message ticks in. It's a picture. Someone took a picture and sent it your way. Does it make you happy? Curious? Do you want to know more? If yes, text them back! Inquire! Tell them what the picture makes you think about, how it makes you feel.

And on that note, converse!

How to play:

1. Top-level with your character. Include prefs and the like, if you wish.
2. Others now leave a comment with a picture their character has sent to yours.
3. Have your character respond with a text, then go tag around as you wish.
4. They text back, you text back, everyone texts like their lives depended on it.
5. Be entertained!

you so have not made your bed today

[ because if he had he would have texted her first ]

do you like them?

i hardly ever make my bed.

[ he was just going to get back into it in a few hours. ]

they're cute. and free of bullet holes. so unlike a lot of my other shirts.

if you did, you might enjoy messing it up more

[ a fun fact from clary about adulthood, stolen from mary poppins ]

plain tshirts from the dollar store also don't have bullet holes, that doesn't mean you like them
i can take them back if you don't

i just said they're cute. doesn't that mean i like them?

[ he likes them. they're not his usual fare but he likes them. ]

you didn't have to do that, you know.

i don't do anything i have to do.

[ fake news but w/e ]

you've been kinda broody lately, i thought they might cheer you up.

have i?

[ he hadn't noticed that but is that really surprising? ]

just been a busy few weeks. never thought there'd be a time i'd wish for a boring day.

you glowered at a box of captain crunch.
i don't know what he did to you but it must have been pretty bad.

went stale.
you'd think cereal would keep longer.

[ the obvious answer here is that someone (cough: john) left the box open and unsealed. since buying fancy chip clips or reusable cereal containers is a little bougie for the underground, clary sends him a helpful instructional video. ]

i expect a demonstration tomorrow morning on your new cereal box skills.
