texts at midnight time

[1sts]

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!

[ He knows it's an important meeting day for her, but he sends a picture anyway. Malcolm drooling on the couch with the pink switch controller dropped off to the side in his robe.

Nothing else sent, but he thought she'd enjoy that image.]

[reginamariposa]

[awhile later:]

oh my god i love him so freaking much

[twoton_twentyone]

I know you do. Also, a heads-up, he's still asleep. He might be up late at this rate. I tried to wake him, and he ordered me to leave him alone.

[reginamariposa]

oh great
well, i'll deal with it. you just do what you want for the night. what were you guys playing?

[twoton_twentyone]

No problem, Sheila, hope things aren't crazy there for you either.

Going to go watch some more of Babylon 5 then. And we were playing Smash Bros, he still can't beat me on Rainbow Road.

[ He's been spending his free time binging a rewatch.]

[reginamariposa]

well, radical left is fighting, and dragoon is crying so.

who'd he choose as his little guy?

[twoton_twentyone]

I can't even judge Radical Left, but why is Dragoon crying?

He totally went for Sephiroth, had to have the cool villain. He's still not mastered the combos, he's getting there, though.

[ With how often he bickered with 24's 'ghost', yeah, he can't judge. ]

[reginamariposa]

the pudding was too close to the green beans. do you see what i'm dealing with here?

well sephiroth is super hot too, and incredibly scary.

[twoton_twentyone]

That is funny. Tell me you're not laughing.

Yep, the perfect one for him, I keep trying to teach him the combos, but you know how he is.

[ It would be fun to lose without throwing the game.]

[reginamariposa]

i had to take a deep breath and i'm envisioning cigs in sexy positions.

button masher, yes

[twoton_twentyone]

OMG. What an image. Do you want me to pick up a pack when I head out to 7/11?? He's out cold, he so wouldn't even notice.

Exactly, you can't button mash to every victory.

[reginamariposa]

god, yes, please.

well-- i think there are chances, the odds are decent enough.

[twoton_twentyone]

Do you care what kind?

Decent enough can be totally swung more in one's favor if they master the craft. I've known most of these combos in each game since the first one came out. Again, not bitching, just hoping he'll learn them.

[ Gary wasn't picky on brands since he mostly bummed cigarettes since 24's death the rare times he feels like he needs one. 24's brand was always Manboro reds, like so many in villainy.]

[reginamariposa]

uh, you know my brand right? just get that.

you know he'd never let you teach him any conventional way. you have to trick him into it

[twoton_twentyone]

Got it, they'll be waiting when you get here.

That's smart, always with the good ideas, boss.

[reginamariposa]

thank you, gary. i appreciate it.

you already knew that, you've learned

[twoton_twentyone]

I did, I just forget sometimes. You know how it is.

[reginamariposa]

we're all human. well, WE are. and not cuttlefish

[twoton_twentyone]

Dude, that guy was weird.

[reginamariposa]

he really was...honestly i wonder if he was either on something or...has some undiagnosed...something

[twoton_twentyone]

My money is on radioactive dolphin bit him. It's always a super science mishap. Maybe old Doctor Venture did that to him?

[reginamariposa]

i think it was some orcas and...some experiment. if we had radioactive dolphins the entire society of humanity would be fucked

[twoton_twentyone]

You know what, fair point. Last thing the world needs is radioactive Flippers. Orcas are kind of cool though, you would think he would be cool too. Lame. But, at least it worked out, I guess.

[reginamariposa]

i thought flipper was the whale
it was the dolphin the whole time?
oh no that's WILLY.
worked out like a house fire with explosives inside
