Texts From Folknight

Welcome to Folkmore's Texts From Last Night meme!

Because it's still April and Thoth is still amused, consider this round two of the Initial Misfire Edition. Initial messages maaaaay go to the wrong person! So not all hell breaks loose, replies carry forward with whoever you've reached, but you might be texting your innermost intoxicated or sleep deprived secret to someone you don't even know.

If you'd like to opt out of misfires, please include this in your top level (by prompt or overall). Otherwise, enjoy indulging Thoth's amusement and building some new CR.

This meme can be used as a branch off from our Test Drive Memes and be used as game canon or just for casual fun in the setting! You do not need to be in our game or be invited to play on our TFLN. This can be a great way to meet current players for future invites, get a feel for the setting, or just have some fun.

This can be used for samples on our applications and as spoons for players accepted into the game.

I suppose so.
How embarrassing! I am not very good with this future technology.

I'm not very good with it, either. I didn't even see that you were a stranger at first!

Ah!
Well, my name is Ingo. I do apologize.

Not at all. I'm Caduceus, it's a pleasure.

The pleasure is mine!

And my brother is the vegetarian.
Though he did not see fit to actually tell me that until recently.

What a strange thing to keep secret. Vegetarianism isn't so unusual. Unless your family is very passionate about meat, maybe.

That's just how he is, I'm afraid. He does not like to tell me anything about himself.
I suppose he thought I might be offended that he did not like the meals I made? But of course I noticed that he barely ate them - I just did not understand what the problem was. I would have adapted the recipes had I known!

[He's just....ranting at a total stranger about this, huh.]

Well. We are working on it. Please forgive me.

[Such passion... thankfully not the first time someone's gone off in his direction for something unrelated. He can take it in stride.]

Consider yourself forgiven, please don't worry.

Some people thrive in privacy. Nothing wrong with it, strictly speaking, but I can understand how it would be frustrating to those around them. Especially if you've been cooking for him without knowing!

Does he cook at all himself?

He did not do much cooking when we were living together.
As far as I could tell, before I got here, he did not make real meals for himself at all. But I believe it was a lack of interest rather than ability.

In any case, I suppose it's not exactly my concern anymore.

[Bo-Katan is making food for him, no doubt. And doing a far better job than Ingo ever did.]

Whether or not it's your concern is up to you, I believe. His decisions can't determine your level of care- only influence it.

[Very much not the same thing in his mind.]

That is an interesting way of putting it.

[He supposes that is true.]

Well. I am not cooking for him anymore, then.

Maybe he should learn to make a vegetarian meal for you, one day.

Oh, no, I would never ask that of him!

No? That's too bad. Sharing a meal is a wonderful way to connect with someone.

I'm the eldest. I should be looking after him!

[It's actually a lot more complicated than that, but.]

Forgive me if this is presumptuous to ask. Are you both adults? Or is he much younger?

[well now he feels stupid admitting they're twins]

We are both adults. But he has had a difficult time for many years. I suppose he is still having one.

It's a bad idea to remain stagnant, even when life is difficult. I do hope he's not idle; even if he has no desire to cook, it's much healthier to learn new things. Especially as an adult. It's so very easy to become complacent as an adult.

I'm not sure what new things he might be doing, but he certainly seems far happier the few times I have seen him since! I think he is getting better.

[Remarkably quickly, in fact...]
