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!

You're gonna turn perfectly fine mashed potato into liquefied potato if you keep going at them with your fork like that. Which would be a crime, wasting food.

"You must be really deep in thought. Normally I'd have had to dodge a bullet by now," Despite the cavalier tone, Tim is still the length of the rooftop away when he speaks. Approaching Jason is already a stupid idea, he doesn't need to spook him within arms reach.

You look like someone burned down your favorite shed. If I’m going to be stuck here, in this dreadful weather, might as well ask. What’s on your mind, choshuv?

[ There's been a lull in their conversation, it's not an awkward one, comfortable enough, really, if a bit pensive. However, after a good couple minutes of it, Elio puts his fork down and looks across the table at the Doctor. ]

A penny for your thoughts, ma'am? I'm always on the hunt for the latest scoop when it comes to new and exciting people and it looks like you're one of them!

Would you look at that. I am entirely without a penny. How unfortunate for us both.

(sorry, but his thoughts are worth a whole dime)

[bunkerbusting]

[Normally he wouldn't care, but there were only so many time he could drill dry firing while balancing a dime on the site before the boredom started kicking in.]

Ever have any problems?

[It's just his way of gauging, better than asking outright what's on someone's mind.]

Hey, heeey. Earth to Angeal!

[ Here, Angeal, have an obnoxious teenage boy in your face, waving a gloved hand in front of it. Once he has Angeal's attention, Zack's head tilts to the side, much like a puppy he's so often compared to. ]

Wow, man, you looked real out of it there. What's up?
