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.

she says she can't wait!

[lol get your life together Cloud you're missing out on a pretty girl here]

hm I guess that's right isn't it? well if she's not YOUR girlfriend...

[Aerith sends a picture of her hand reaching towards Tifa's hand while she talks to a customer, Tifa in the picture is smiling pleasantly and has no idea that Aerith is reaching]

you wouldn't mind if I ask her on a date right?

AERITH

[headfull]

[cloud sputters irl and zack is asking him if he's going to die, to which cloud shooes at him while he tries to figure out how to handle this situation. then he looks at zack.]

what about zack?

;)

[a_flower_girl]

[ah hah, he's not denying it anymore. Aerith is grinning at the screen, got him.]

that's a conversation for me and Zack

besides...

I have two hands

[poor Tifa is blissfully unaware of this conversation. come on dude, just tell her to back off.]

[headfull]

[he's going to die and you've killed him aerith. he can't argue against that. goddammit.]

[cloud is typing, cloud stops typing. cloud is typing, cloud stops typing. tifa wouldn't say yes, would she?]

we're almost there. keep your hands to yourself.

so proud of him

[a_flower_girl]

well, if it bothers you so much...

[she feels so successful rn. she will make sure these yearning fools will get together if it kills her. hopefully it WON'T kill her this time.]

but you know, you should probably do something before someone who's not as nice as me makes a move

[headfull]

[he knows she's right he just is cloud about it]

when did this become about me and tifa?

[cloud uses deflect!]

[a_flower_girl]

[come on dude...]

Zack agrees with me you know

[deflects back!!! no need to answer questions when you can just Insist Harder]

[headfull]

you two always do

[is he wrong?]

[a_flower_girl]

[he's not!]

and we're also always right :)

end or should they text from next to each other

[headfull]

sure.

[he can see the bar from where they are now]

be there in a minute.

I want a little texting from next to each other but we can wrap it up in a couple tags

[a_flower_girl]

[by the time Aerith goes to respond he's already walking in the door with Zack so she waves and greets them. Zack gets a kiss on the cheek when he gets close enough. after Tifa gets the chance to say hello and goes back to work Aerith pulls out her phone from a couple seats away from Cloud.]

psst

hey

Cloud

hey

just ask her

Zack and I can go somewhere else to give you some privacy ;)

[she's staring at your spikey head]

[headfull]

[Cloud's phone goes off and at first he's like "oh?" and then he groans and puts it face down on the bar counter. he shoots a look at Aerith, debates with himself if he's going to entertain her, and ultimately gives in]

why would i ask her anything in front of other customers? not that there's anything to ask.

[a_flower_girl]

[you can't resist her Cloud, she'll just keep bothering you, that's her whole deal.]

Cloud you don't have to pretend you're not in love with her when it's just us texting

[Aerith sighs in a really exaggerated way and stares pointedly in his direction]

[headfull]

don't sigh too hard you'll draw attention to this stupid thing we're doing.

[he's distracted by Tifa for a moment, like they talk for a bit about if Cloud's having his usual or just some water; Cloud's was going to just have some water since it's late but now he needs that drink Tifa makes special for him]

whatever i decide to do is going to be on my own terms.

[a_flower_girl]

[Aerith frowns at her phone. rude.]

just think about what we talked about earlier

[she just watches them interacting with her head resting in her hand and she can see Tifa's extremely soft expression whenever she looks at him. do not let her get snatched up by some other person you big nerd!!! do you not see!!! Look At Her]

you know I just want you two to be happy

[headfull]

[he looks a lot he just has "i do not deserve her affection" shades on]

i know

[he casts A Look at Aerith, thanks Tifa for his drink with a Soft Look and takes a drink]

thanks. really.

end?

[a_flower_girl]

[and it kills her, truly, with a metaphorical giant sword through the stomach, to see you acting like you don't deserve love Cloud]

of course

[well she can't keep looking at them being stupid, she loves them both too much to be sitting here watching them mutually pining after each other as if they're not in love with each other. she puts down her phone and wraps herself around Zack's big arm and smiles up at him and thanks the lifestream that at least one person in this group isn't stupid (at least in that way). they're going to have so much to talk about later.]

end!

[headfull]

[well he can't blame her for trying. she's at least left him a lot to think about. he pockets his phone and goes back to his drink and chatting with Tifa whenever she gets a chance to just chill with her friends. he doesn't think he wants the close schmoopy thing Aerith has going on with Zack but, y'know, something with Tifa would be nice. maybe he'll show her that small bird Aerith sent him and see if she finds that funny sometime.]
