pennies from heaven.

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!

[Eddie, no. You already know that he gets snappy when he's a mood... nope, there he goes, taking a penny out of his pocket...]

[Eddie lays the penny flat on his left palm, and brings that hand up to his eye. His right hand is close by, in prime position to flick the penny at Jason. (He'll be in that pose when you turn to look at him.) Perhaps sanity prevails in Eddie, though, because he asks first...]

((ooc: Not at all minor fangasm here. My love for all the clones is boundless and unsated, and I don't understand why more SW fans don't feel for them as much as I do...))

[It's not that Obi-Wan isn't perfectly comfortable with the silence. He berates Anakin's distaste for proper meditation near constantly, and of course he, himself, would take this opportunity to practice his own skills. However, the Captain of the 501st has a strange look on his face, and Obi-Wan needs to lean forwards and ask:]

[Ari's 'penny' is a little copper disc, and she twirls it between her fingers. She should be looking at the books in this bookstore, that's what she's here for. Some of them are precious. But it's the other young woman that catches her attention.]

[ It's not that Claire's bad with long silences, it's just... Well, okay. Maybe the quiet gets to her sometimes. ]

What'cha thinkin'?

[demogorgongotme]

because Steve has to check on all of his kids--

[crawlingbackwards]

Steve isn't really surprised to see Will at the Wheeler's when he drops Dustin off, however he is surprised to see him outside sitting on the porch and not running inside to go get ready for their game like always. It just seems like...something's off. Hands in his pockets he wanders over and plops down next to the other, bumping his shoulder.

"Hey, penny for your thoughts? What's up?"

Sure Will was Jonathan's little brother and sure Steve and Jonathan weren't exactly friends, still...Will was one of the brats that he looked after. He was the quietest one and honestly probably one of the sweetest.

"You don't gotta tell me, but if you need an ear I'm here. Alright?"

[Voicetesting! Also, it's his birthday, so feel free to wish him a happy (or unhappy?) birthday.]

I'm sorry.

[seaandsummer]

"I'm here because mom asked me to be, and Fuyumi's sick."

Natsuo stands awkwardly in the doorway, holding a plate of food his mother and Fuyumi made for Endeavor's birthday. "So, yeah, happy birthday and all that."

He wants to drop off the food and get gone. But something is nagging at him. His father looks unhappy. Well, unhappier than usual. He lets out a breath and walks into the kitchen, gently setting down the food on the table and then sitting across from his father. He barely knows this man. Thoroughly dislikes what he does know. But... he's going to be a doctor someday. He's going to treat people he doesn't like. Might as well get some practice in. "What's up? I thought Hawks might be here since he's your friend, and it's your birthday."

[It's like he's the world's shittiest bartender, except no alcohol is involved (yet), and it's some weird hour, and he's cooking in Rhodes Island's cafeteria, and for once there isn't a crowd of operators around him celebrating the fact he's cooking.

It's just him and Ayerscarpe, and after cooking some improvised stir fry with some kind of spicy thing, the sort of bullshit fry one makes when they're almost alone in a kitchen and don't need to put in effort, he slides a plate over to Ayerscarpe.]

Something on your mind?
