midnight textings

[cherrytrees]

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!

sounds hopeful, I like that side of yours.

[soldiergenes]

That so? And what sides don't you like?

[alaskasunset]

[soldiergenes]

I wouldn't count on that. And you're still a little green around the gills.

[alaskasunset]

ooooh c'mon.

look, you were right. VR training is nothing compared to the real thing, but I already learned that, didn't I?

[soldiergenes]

You did. You've experienced a lot more than other operatives your age, I'll give you that.

[alaskasunset]

must be my lucky day, hearing such praise from you.

... thanks, dave.

[soldiergenes]

Starting to feel sleepy?

[alaskasunset]

yeah, a bit.

what about you?

[soldiergenes]

Might be worth a shot, at least.

[alaskasunset]

and hey, don't be a stranger. let's keep talking like this, hopefully in the day.

[soldiergenes]

Can't make any promises.

[alaskasunset]

classic you

doesn't keep me from checking on you from time to time

for old time's sake?

[soldiergenes]

It's not like I can stop you.

[ Sure, he could go dark and cut all contact, but Snake hasn't seen the need to do that so far. He gets this feeling that regardless of what he does, their paths are going to cross again eventually. He just hasn't decided how he feels about it yet. ]

you could never do that anyway.

good night, dave.

[ Her feelings towards him will always be complex, sometimes bitter and sometimes full of longing, to make him proud. But Meryl is sure she'll always be grateful to have met him. ]

[soldiergenes]

Night, Meryl.

[ He didn't know what to make of her or their interactions half the time. During a mission he doesn't have to overthink, just act, but the aftermath is always where it gets muddy. ]

[ She tosses her phone below her pillow -just beside her favourite knife- and closes her eyes. David is always going to be a bit of a difficult thing to manage in her life, but she is glad anyway. It was a good talk. ]
