"This is why I'm broke" the Meme!

So for whatever reason, you just spent a ridiculous amount of money on a really stupid item. Maybe it's the Party Python (pictured above), a whopping 26 pounds of gummy snake, or maybe you just bought a life-sized whale made of swiss cheese. Whatever you did, your friend/roommate/comrade/the random stranger in your hotel lobby must now put up with the consequences of your buying decisions. Maybe it's for a party, maybe it isn't--either way, if you show up with a six foot long gummy snake, they're pretty much bound to say: you bought what?! |
So here's how it works (and it is incredibly simple with no RNG involved, really):
1. Character A comments with Name | Canon, and whether they're the Buyer OR Receiver, or either!
2. Character B replies with the opposite and either shows off or reacts to said ridiculous item for whatever reason! Be it a batman snuggie or a giant party python, your possibilities are only as limitless as the dumbest, most expensive thing you think your character might buy! Your character might be drunk or not, that choice is up to you.
3. Everyone questions their choices and profits! And by profits, I mean loses massive amounts of money!
Simple, no? Have at!

Still, she wanders the shop and browses the aisles.
She makes a purchase and then comes to join him in his browsing.]
Are you still trying to decide on... what are you looking at? If you're still sad that they are out of your favorite cereal we could go to another grocery store. [Her hand slides around his waist, pulling herself flush to him before she takes the basket out of his hand with one hand and presents her purchase to him with the other.]
For you.

Yes, it's pretty obvious that when Hanji buys things for others she buys things that she would enjoy herself. But hey it's a party, okay?
The question is. Will he enjoy it as well? The answer to that is depends on how much he's had to drink. Hanji here already has had quite a few. ] Levi...!

how about both
When you spend this much of your time wandering the world, collecting junk like the proverbial rolling stone does not collect moss (and how does that work? how do they keep accumulating so much stuff on the road?), Spring Cleaning has to come a little more often than just in Spring. Like, say, biweekly or twice monthly or just whenever everybody starts pissing and moaning about their packs being too heavy (not that that isn't usually an easy consensus to reach - easier than what to have for dinner or where to sleep, if there's more than one inn or not enough beds).
In any case, all of their purchase-based woes are well in the past - because it's a heap of potentially useful and potentially useless stuff that's staring them down, now, the only two left and responsible enough to go through it all.
Of course, given that more than a fair share is his, Cloud couldn't have argued the position (as per usual, really). He assumes Tifa has remained mostly out of pity.
Or maybe she's just as interested in where the other end of that 26-pound gummy snake terminates, amidst all of the obsolete armor and off-brand restorative items and questionable underthings (the ones he hasn't tucked discreetly back into the bottom of his own bag, at least). ]
...When did we buy that? [ Any of it. Tifa's free to take her pick, as he opts to sift aimlessly through the detritus of past shopping sprees, possibly all taken under the influence of temporary blindness or poison or who knows what all.
They clearly weren't in their right minds when they doled out the gil for those Mood Ring Bangles (no Defense bonus) or the Red Check Cape (doesn't prevent anything). ]
I love it!

Lone Ranger is his favorite.
Not sorry. It's a limited edition action figure. He's putting it in storage.
Do not ask him how much he paid for it.]
