TEXTING MEME

You’ve got your TFLN, you’ve got your sexting, now here’s the meme for all those gen texts, phone calls, voicemails, pictures of your cats, and whatever else your little heart can come up with, because who doesn't like a little old fashioned friendly texting. (Or enemy texting, if that's more your bag.) instructions: What it says on the tin! Leave a comment with your character, include preferences, a start, absolutely nothing or whatever you want. Run around and reply to others. Lather, rinse, repeat.

[a_flower_girl]

look how grumpy he is, just like you ♥

[headfull]

[...]

don't see the resemblance.

[a_flower_girl]

that's a shame, I thought the little guy was really cute too

[headfull]

[unfortunately, he does like cute yellow birds.]

didn't say it wasn't.

[a_flower_girl]

[UNfortunately?? excuse you cute yellow birds deserve all the love]

oh so you DO see the resemblance then!

[MY TRAP HAS BEEN SPRUNG!!! UR CUTE!!!!]

[headfull]

[oh god. he walked right into that one. how did he not see that coming?]

still don't see it. sorry.

[...he'll throw her a bone though.]

i'm not a bird.

[a_flower_girl]

[Aerith is giggling up a storm over here]

how are you so serious all the time??

[headfull]

i'm not. [he sighs.] you should know that.

[a_flower_girl]

[oh noooo look at his little faaace]

hmmm...no I guess not

[maybe she'll ease up on the teasing a little]

what are you doing anyway?

[headfull]

zack dragged me out on a job with him, said he could use another hand. on the way back home now, though. it was a one-man job.

two boys hanging out doing jobs together, a better world...

[a_flower_girl]

just back to your apartment?

or back to the bar?

[okay maybe she's not done teasing him]

[headfull]

[he shakes his head. does he really go there that much?]

back to the bar. you comin'?

[a_flower_girl]

[listen, Aerith knows you love Tifa, speaking of!]



already here! should I tell your girlfriend you're on the way?

[are they even officially dating or is Aerith teasing him? your call!]

[headfull]

[Aerith can be teasing him and he's groaning at his phone]

stop that, she's not my girlfriend.

[he takes a minute to ask zack how much longer they'll be]

but yeah tell her we'll be there in 20.

[tenderstrength]

Hey, Zack said you were acting different. Is something the matter?

[Is Zack using this as an excuse to get them to talk or is he actually worried?]

[headfull]

[a bit of both, it's something Zack thinks he could totally handle himself as Cloud's best bud but why not try to get Tifa in on it? Cloud's not too thrilled though.]

i'm fine.

[he's been doing that thing where when you're left alone too long with your thoughts you start retraumatizing yourself about Stuff and it's been getting to him. it takes him a minute but he does send a follow-up text; if anyone would understand it's Tifa. he can be a little bitty bit vulnerable.]

been thinking about home is all.

[doing delivery gig stuff leaves him alone constantly as a job y'know]

[tenderstrength]

oh..

[The little dots stop and start a few times as she erases and rewrites what she wants to say.]

Sometimes it feels like it's been a long time and sometimes it feels like it was only last week, huh.

[The dots start and stop again. Be a brave girl, Tifa!]

If you want to, you can call me. To help distract you? Or just because! You don't need to a have a reason to call me or anything. But if I can help..

[headfull]

yeah. i prefer when it feels like a long time. easier to get away from it then.

[he pauses over responding to her offer. he's just so bad at reaching out and he knows it. but he also knows it's better to not leave her hanging.]

thanks. i'll keep that in mind.

[tenderstrength]

[It's some time before she responds again. She didn't want to pressure him or anything but...]

or I could call you? Sometimes? I don't know if I'd end up just bothering you while you're on your deliveries though. Maybe on your farther ones?

[headfull]

[he has to think about it, so it's also some time before he responds. he doesn't want her to feel that way but he also doesn't want her to go through the trouble just to make him feel better. why are they like this.]

[Cloud starts typing, he stops typing. he starts typing, he stops. he starts again.]

sure. i'll let you know sometime.

[sometimes. it's not a promise or anything, but maybe he'll take her up on it Sometimes. he also doesn't want to bother her, especially with her own business.]

[tenderstrength]

I'll end up giving you surprise calls. Just so you know! Sometimes I just want to talk to you.

[and he better answer >:|]

[headfull]

[oh that made him a little soft and he doesn't know how to respond to it but he has to run food up to a 7th floor apartment anyway so brb for a few minutes before he gets back to her] that so? guess i'll keep my sound on, then.

end?

[tenderstrength]

You'd do that for me? Thanks, Cloud.

[she may or may not be smiling down at her phone, looking a little too giddy about this.]

end! unless you want the last comment or smth

[headfull]

[now he's all a little flustered about this oh no]

yeah. back to work. see you.

[he'll make sure his phone's bluetooth is connected to his radio so that he'll be able to take Tifa's call easier if she does call him later]
