midnight textings


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!

You are thinking too hard, why?
menphina: (the further on we go)

Just think about it, though!
They walk around with a drop of water to nourish them.
Is that all they ever think about?!
What about their other hopes and dreams?!
afflatusrapture: (halone)

Perhaps they do have other aspirations. We will simply never know, will we?

Now, what has you up so late?
menphina: (we've got nothing to show)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-20 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
It's my business to know, or I'll never know their secret power!!
... I might just be bored and unable to sleep.
Why are you up

Because I am nocturnal.

Also are they not called secrets for a reason?
menphina: (tell me again how your opinion matters)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-20 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Since when did you get Keeper sleeping habits in you? You're marrying a Seeker, aren't you?
Not that I've not kept him awake, too.

Getting cold feet?
(I want to know secrets. It's my thing.)
afflatusrapture: (serious joie)

Now, Megumi, you know me better than that. Not once have I carried normal sleeping hours.

As much as his habits should be that of a Seeker, he’s as terrible as I am at sleep sometimes. No cold feet, though.

I’ve no secrets to tell this time.
menphina: (so let's sing together)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-20 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
They're normal for me, so they're odd for you, and so I shall worry!

I'm sure he isn't complaining about how you keep him awake.

;) ;) ;)

Just wait til you have crying children waking you up. They keep their father's hours, so they're in bed when I'm not. Anyroad, there's a korpokkur in the garden. I think it's urinating.

When did this become about my sleeping habits?

I’ll have you know he never complains about anything.

Maybe you should go interrogate it for its secrets, and let me have a crisis about you mentioning children.
menphina: (called women don't)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-20 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm the Radiant Matriarch, I've got to worry about your habits.

And I've told him that's not healthy! He needs to complain when he feels like it!

I can't interrupt it when it's taking a piss! That's rude! And I think whatever it's urinating is helping the garden.

Why are children a crisis?! You don't have to have them! Don't force yourself!
afflatusrapture: (what do you mean we can't get starbucks?)

[personal profile] afflatusrapture 2021-09-20 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I’m not even a member of your tribe, Miss Radiant Matriarch.

You and I both know he’s not going to complain if it means he’s taking care of me.

Because I’m thirty two and the only experience I have is with your children.
menphina: (just as trashy as u)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-20 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you not get the notice? You're marrying one of mine so now you're part of my tribe.
Not that that stops you from being part of it even without that.
You knew this when you befriended me.
Now you cannot escape my love.
:D :D :D

I'm going to give him a stern talking-to.
(You can comfort him after.)

My children are little monsters but I don't think yours have to be that way. Besides, they're best when they've got a good role model. You're a good role model! You'll be fine!
afflatusrapture: (please do not perceive me)

[personal profile] afflatusrapture 2021-09-20 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, many apologies! I had not received the memo that I had been taken into your loving arms so readily.

Oh you just know he’s going to pout. Matriarch fussing at him gets him so puffy.

Are you insinuating that you aren’t a good role model?
menphina: (don't worry about trash talk)

[personal profile] menphina 2021-09-24 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
I'm the best, but you're even better. So live with it, because you're our wonderful Joie!
afflatusrapture: (tasteful side glance)

[personal profile] afflatusrapture 2021-09-24 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I simply cannot just live with it! You know this!

I’m far too shy to accept such things!
