penny for your thoughts.







PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS

(a) penny for your thoughts. SAID WHEN YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT ANOTHER PERSON IS THINKING, USUALLY BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN QUIET FOR A WHILE. (cambridge dictionary)

YOU'VE BEEN SITTING IN SILENCE FOR SOME TIME AND NOW YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S ON YOUR COMPANION'S MIND, SO YOU FLASH YOUR RICHES AND OFFER a penny for your thoughts, GIVING THEM THE OPPORTUNITY TO TELL YOU AND HAVE A LITTLE HEART-TO-HEART.



How to play -

1. Comment with your character's name, fandom and preferences.
2. Others offer your character a penny for their thoughts to start the conversation off.
3. Your character tells them what they're thinking of, note that lying's allowed. You take it from there.
4. Be serious, be light-hearted, be cracky. Just have fun!

A physical penny? [ Does he even have one of those? He's rummaging through his wallet now, scoffing. There, score. Holding it out on one flat palm, he raises an eyebrow at the other man. ] Usually it's just an expression, you know.

[ Penny grabbed, onto a set of scales it goes as he rummages around amongst his samples and petri dishes. ]

Usually, murderers prefer regular bullets.

And what does this one prefer?

[ Leaning on the kitchen table, one hand grabbing the edge of it. The other is busy stuffing his wallet safely back in his pocket. ]

When you sneer like that, it makes me think you're feigning surprise. [Pause for dramatic effect.] I'm also overcome with the realisation that I'm capable of thought.

[ loki splays his hand on his chest, mock surprise. ]

I better alert the news. And what noble thought has crossed your mind?
docwithablog: (to abuse and to adore)

[personal profile] docwithablog 2020-05-16 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
O-kay. [ Paaaause. Long paaaaause. Blink, blink. Cue: lip-licking. ] Are you going to tell me what you were thinking about, then?
acuriousincident: (Default)

[personal profile] acuriousincident 2020-05-16 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Possibly. [ Pause. ] Or you could attempt to deduce.

You'll want to write this down. [Gravely, gesturing at Loki's empty hands.] I'm toying with the notion that I feel simultaneously like an old man who has seen too much and an idiot who has seen too little.

[ His eyes narrow, expression tightening visibly. ]

Yes, because I initiated this conversation with the intent of making a bloody fool out of myself.
