welcome sleepies, to our very first meme saturday! every month a little mod-hosted meme will go up for us to play around with admist the chaos, and this theme was chosen by popular demand! we've all heard about texts from last night, but have you heard of......
MURMURS FROM LAST NIGHT
strange things happen in the night. maybe you drink, or dream, or get high as a kite, and it's hard to hide it! especially when we're all collectively connected in a way! the rules are quite simple! you may even know them by now.
π post a top level for your character and include a few text starters, like the ones provided.
π interact.
π thrive.
π if you wish for your threads to be game canon, the sky is the limit (just make sure your thread partner is okay with it!).
π We might have some special guests later.
001. I was raised Catholic which means I'm not religious any more
002. They actually have a secret backup fleet of planes you can only unlock if you're rude to the low level staff
003. Initial Flight Training was wild. I watched one of the guys in my class break his own finger to get out of an exam he forgot about until the day of
004. Ive been afraid of spiders since Iraq. in a masc way
005. Flight surgeon gave me 800mg ibuprofen and two saltines to eat while he did the lidocaine. got the rock out in like 10 minutes. It was the easy bake oven version of M*A*S*H
006. Cabbie laughed at me and said "Rough night? Let me find you some music" and put on Usher's "Yeah"
007. You up? Just woke up in a night sweat after dreaming I was the one who killed Biggie. A little rattled
I might've hidden a bunch of plastic spiders around the house before I knew this. I also do not know where they're all at. [ this is what happens when you get drunk and find gag toys. ] There's also a rubber rat, but he's in the cupboard. And cute. Don't tell Arthur.
DON'T go back up there I'm so serious. I know how drunk people are. [ Determined. And he knows on account of some lived experience being a Drunk People on several occasions... ]
Yeah, maybe his parents never took him to Chuck-E-Cheese unless it was some other kid's birthday, and even then it was just a drop-off/pick-up he could tell he was inconveniencing them with. But he still appreciates a good sticky hand. ]
Green glow in the dark please but what do you MEAN a ""third time"". What was the second time!!!
Oh. I just tried to get it with a pair of tongs! Definitely misjudged the reach and the angle. But I didn't hit my head! [ She is limited to one serious concussion a month, and she punched that card mid-month! ]
[ It might be less that Megumi is a zoomer and more the fact that he has the media consumption habits of a fifty-something-year-old man, to be fair. His friends are out here like "let's shop! let's go to the movies!" and he's just ditching them to go home, read some popular non-fiction, and fall asleep on the couch... ]
I don't know much about rap. [ Actually... ] I guess you didn't strike me as the type, either.
Didn't strike you as the type! [ There's a little incredulous but very amused laugh. ] I went to college in America in 2010. We weren't drinking jungle juice in people's dorm rooms to "Hey Soul Sister".
[ Wait, he might not know that one if he doesn't know Biggie. Especially because it was such a thoroughly mid song that got overplayed to annoying. Hopefully the Japanese population was largely spared, but if so, Megumi's luck has run out, because he's casting a few bars of it through the psychic link between them for emphasis. ]
And then I was in Iraq and Syria. Guys who are deployed like white girl music and trap music.

Okay.
So.

I'm living in a Chuck E Cheese prize counter and you are laughing

...some of the doors have googly eyes now, though. And there's one of those sticky hands on the kitchen ceiling. Can't reach it. I tried.
no subject
What did you raid, a Spirit Halloween?
no subject
Chuck E. Cheese, actually. I'm rich in sticky slap hands. A Spirit Halloween would be the jackpot, though!
no subject
Save me a sticky slap hand

Got a favorite color? Got a couple glow-in-the-dark ones, too.

Like, he knows that rap was never as big in Japan, but it's still had some level of cultural influence.
Across the Murmur, he casts a remembered image of the man himself, followed by a few bars of one of his hits (content warnings). ]
He was one of the greatest rappers of all time. Died too young. He was shot. Absolute legend.
