texting with pictures



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!

Maybe I'll put in a good word for you when I'm there.

[ Everyone loves Captain America, right? ]

I'll go. How about you meet me in Paris for that dinner? I'll drag you to the Louvre.

I appreciate the effort but maybe you shouldn't. Don't want you to get side-eyed by the Dutch.

Oooh, dinner in Paris? Can do. Let's take a selfie in front of the Mona Lisa.
vintagecaptain: ([army] smug)

I don’t think it would go that badly.

I don’t think you can get that close to the Mona Lisa.
speaktome: (what I'll do to you)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-13 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
But you're Captain America. Surely, they'll let you take a picture with a masterpiece.
vintagecaptain: ([steve] smirking)

At least you’re buying me dinner before you use me. Should I insist on a private tour too?
speaktome: (ok got my attention)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-13 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Private tour? I don't know. Could be cosy. Or incredibly creepy. You decide.
vintagecaptain: ([steve] stoic)

It’s taking advantage of my celebrity. I try to be like any other tourist when I visit places. You can ask if you want that.
speaktome: (holo dreams)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-13 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Emphasis on 'try'. How long before you turn into the main attraction? Not that I mind. I love taking pictures with pretty people.

Most people don’t notice me without the uniform, actually. I’m not real well known as Steve Rogers. Just Captain America.
speaktome: (relaxing outdoors)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-13 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Even with that jaw line and everything?

Well, guess we can do the touristy thing then.
vintagecaptain: ([with tony] handshake)

[personal profile] vintagecaptain 2019-10-13 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, even with that.

We’ll definitely get noticed fast. You’re THE Tony Stark.
speaktome: (holo dreams)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-13 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
That sounds like an accusation.

Don't worry. I can do subtle.
vintagecaptain: ([steve] getting ready)

[personal profile] vintagecaptain 2019-10-13 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
No, sorry. It frustrates me sometimes.

Okay. Then we’ll walk around like tourists.
speaktome: (is that what they say?)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-16 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe you want to drag someone else around the Louvre after all, Steve.

I know a hole in the wall type of place. We can meet there after your cultural excursion.
vintagecaptain: ([steve] doodling)

[personal profile] vintagecaptain 2019-10-16 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I asked you.

I like those kinds of places. I'll message you when I'm in Paris.
speaktome: (finger mask)

[personal profile] speaktome 2019-10-16 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
OK. See you in Paris.
