WHAT texting misfires
WHERE all the heck over
WHEN 92

[ it sure is convenient just getting a cell phone handed to you when you move in, right? modern technology is great. a bunch of you have probably made some attempt to learn how the thing works (if you didn't know already) and have made all sorts of friends you keep in touch with, so the sound of an incoming text message shouldn't be all that surprising... except a quick glance shows it's from a number you don't recognize at all. huh?!

as for the people who haven't bothered messing with it at all... well, sucks to be you! those of you in that category had better learn at least how to silence it, and fast. there are a lot of texts coming in, for some reason... ]

((LET'S HAVE SOME GOOD OL' WHOLESOME TEXTS FROM LAST NIGHT SHENANIGANS FRIENDS. grab texts wholesale from the website, edit them, come up with your own, it's all good. feel free to put up multiple options too? follow your heart ♥))

I hear people with something called self control don't!

[ghostfromthemachine]

ok but. do they not have it, or do they just not follow it

[scarvedforlife]

mm good question good question

id believe the first one more

[ghostfromthemachine]

maybe we should find someone and ask

[scarvedforlife]

Do you know anyone like that here?

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ a pause ]

most of my friends, actually! I guess I outsource my impulse control www

[scarvedforlife]

Which makes you the shining star of adventure!

Lets go ask one of them

[ghostfromthemachine]

I'll see if I can get a message through!
texts have been going everywhere but where they're supposed to today

[scarvedforlife]

Well why not just ask in person?

Town's not that big

[ rather than a text reply, he gets a selfie: a cute fluffy-haired girl bundled up on a couch in like three blankets with five pillows. she's got a book in her lap and a mug of tea in her other hand and in general looks incredibly cozy— which is probably why she's giving the camera an incredibly deadpan unimpressed look ]

because I am not moving for Hell or high water right now

[scarvedforlife]

[ Whoa whoa no one told Kida he was chatting with a super cute girl. ]

point made!

then let's just shoot some texts out at random and see what response we get

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ rest in pieces ]

sounds good! we can say we're asking for science.

[scarvedforlife]

pin pon right!

no one can resist doing things for science

[ghostfromthemachine]

[

you know, that's genuinely a really funny thing to say to someone who is both the daughter of a mad scientist and technically a result of that kind of philosophy. her next reply will be a minute or so coming; she has to stop cackling first. ]

truer words have never been texted?

though all the actual scientists I know here are more in the "no self control" category I think
