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!

She doesn't look like the French woman if that's what you are thinking.

I suppose you got a point there.

Thanks for the offer, but it isn't necessary. I help with the family finances, so I have funds available to me. She mentioned wanting to go to a Ballet. So I may start there.

[extrasensory_problems]

Oh I'm sure they look totally different, I'm more just thinking attitude wise. I think you like a woman who flirts heavily with you.

With that in mind, I'll always have your back Five.

Oh the ballet is great, if you want to skip the big productions you can get cheap tickets for a lot of the smaller scale productions. Does she like all types of dance or just ballet?

[oldmanfive]

I don't really agree with that because my old boss would constantly flirt with me and I hated it. It depends on the demeanor and personality more.

Likewise, Carter. I got your back too, buddy.

She seems to be a fan of dance in general, but ballet was what she mentioned when we were brainstorming ideas for places she could wear the dress I bought her.

[extrasensory_problems]

Your boss used to flirt with you? Huhn, that's not exactly proper business etiquette. I'm guessing there wasn't exactly an HR department you could report them to?

:)

Oooh a fan of dance, I like her already. Have you ever been to the ballet Five?

[oldmanfive]

No, it isn't. Our entire relationship wasn't exactly appropriate but I wasn't really in a position to do anything about it. I had to go along with certain things as a means of survival.

[ That's probably the first time, he's really admitted to hating what the Handler did to him, during his time with the Commission. ]

No, I haven't. I've only ever been to some orchestra concerts. But ballets and operas I never had the opportunity before but now I have an excuse to go them.

[extrasensory_problems]

Oh Jesus, Five. That's awful. Like...shit.

I think you'll enjoy it, ballet can get a bad reputation for being stuffy and boring but it's actually really powerful.

[oldmanfive]

Yeah, I know. Trust me I know. I'm not exactly proud of the shit I let happen, but I didn't have a lot of options.

My sister is a violinist. So honestly I'm pretty open to stuff that is related to that.

[extrasensory_problems]

Dude I'm so not putting any blame on you for that shit. That's all on your boss. They're a piece of shit for doing that to you.

Oh awesome, yeah you'll totally enjoy it then.

[oldmanfive]

Sorry, I don't really want to talk about this anymore. So can we change the subject?

[extrasensory_problems]

Yeah absolutely. Back to your good news.

What does your girlfriend look like?

[oldmanfive]

She's beautiful and hopefully I get to introduce you to her some time soon.

[extrasensory_problems]

Short? Tall? Long hair? Blue eyes?
I'd like that.

[oldmanfive]

Short hair, violet eyes, smile that can light up a room and some how she's into me.

[extrasensory_problems]

Violet eyes? Huhn, and they're natural? Cool. Also oh man..... That last description. So cute. I enjoy seeing you so smitten.

But also, of course she's into you. You're great.

[oldmanfive]

As far as I can tell they are. It might be tied to her powers. But I don't know.

So you guys keep telling me, but I don't always feel that great.

[extrasensory_problems]

Hrm maybe yeah, if she's got wacky genetics that gave her powers maybe it also gave her purple eyes.

How come?

[oldmanfive]

Eh, I honestly don't care how she ended up with violet eyes. It is just something else that makes her stand out.

...I really don't want to get into that. Especially over text message.

[extrasensory_problems]

Awwww <3 Do you have pictures of her on your phone?

Okay. No problem.

[oldmanfive]

Yeah, but it doesn't really do her justice. And her eyes are closed on it, since she's laughing.

I'll show it to you the next time I see you.

[extrasensory_problems]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh Five. I know I keep saying this but that is so cute.

[oldmanfive]

Ugh, I know...but Carter, I am really crazy over this woman. She makes me so happy. This is all so new to me.

[extrasensory_problems]

Hahahaa no ughs! I think it's great, like I am literally sitting here grinning at the news that you're so head over heels about this girl.
And it might be new to you but I bet it's exciting too hrm?

[oldmanfive]

It is exciting but it is also terrifying because shit always falls apart in my life. So I can't help but worry that something will ruin this for us.

[extrasensory_problems]

I think it's a valid worry but try not to worry too much, I'll do everything I can to try and help nothing ruin this for you.

[oldmanfive]

Thanks man, I appreciate the support. It means a lot to me.
