middle of the night texting


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!

[ It's mid-day for Josuke, but he may or may not have forgotten about the time difference between Japan and New York... ]

What's the English word for that feeling you get when you watch someone do something really embarrassing and it makes you really uncomfortable on their behalf, but at the same time you're really glad the thing happened to them and not you?

In this case, the "someone" is my best friend, trying to ask out the new girl in class.

Okuyasu.

[ It's annoying, Joestar-san not bothering to remember his friends' names properly, but he'll get over it. ]

OK, so the girl is cute. Like... *REALLY* cute.
She moved to Morioh from Kyoto, and mentioned when she introduced herself that she's looking to make new friends here, blah blah.
We were all talking about her at lunch, about how cute she is and wondering what kind of guys she likes. Then when we were headed back inside to class, Okuyasu spotted her across the courtyard, and just sort of...

WENT for it.
Like the big, dumb idiot he is.

Only he didn't realize that he had a huge mayo stain all down the front of his shirt from the messy sandwich he'd been eating.

She turned him down (Obviously.) in front of the ENTIRE SCHOOL.

So. Yeah. How would you describe that in English?
