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.

You don't need to be a robot for this to be easy. Maybe if you had any sort of encryption or other protection against such things, Grandpa, I wouldn't be doing it in my spare time.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I know you were taught manners by the internet, but it's generally frowned on to read someone else's messages.

[ihadstrings]

Everyone would do it if they could. And since I can, I do.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Not everyone. I don't need to know what everyone else is talking about.

[ihadstrings]

But it's FUN!

[pursuitofcappiness]

Okay. And what else do you think is fun?

[ihadstrings]

Eliminating all the things I know you'd lecture me for...........that pretty much leaves creating things?

[That was perhaps at the moment one of the few true positive qualities Ultron had left in his personality. He did have a very creative spirit even if it got twisted into all the wrong ways most of the time.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Okay. What sort of things?

[ihadstrings]

Depends. But technology is a big one. Making something new and innovative, that really brings a lot of satisfaction to me.

[pursuitofcappiness]

[ Maybe we don't encourage that. ]

Anything else?

[ihadstrings]

Well, I'd tell you, but I'm afraid you'll think it's dumb.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I won't.

[ihadstrings]

You'd better not or I'll kick your ass.

Anyway...I've always wanted to try my hands at growing something. Maybe like flowers? There's just never seemed to be enough time before.

[He said at the ripe old age of a week old.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Why don't you come help me with my garden? I just got some fruit trees.

[ihadstrings]

I don't know the first thing about taking care of fruit trees. What if they all die on my watch?

[This was perhaps the first time Ultron had actually shown any cracks in that façade of his that made him act like he knew everything and could do no wrong. This was being vulnerable in a way that he had never done before.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Trees usually have signs of dying before they do. And I'll still be monitoring them.

[ihadstrings]

Okay. I guess I can try.

[If he sounded less than enthusiastic, he was just a bit apprehensive about stepping out of his comfort zone, just as anyone tended to be when faced with something new they'd never done before. It just felt more uncomfortable for Ultron than most because he'd never had cause to try and do this ever before and so internally he was screaming a little bit.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

You'll do it or you won't. But I'll help you, and you'll learn something new. That's the goal.

[ihadstrings]

FINE. I'll do it.

[Which really made him sound like the petulant kid he actually was.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

It's your hobby. You're welcome to pick another one.

[ihadstrings]

No, no, you're like one of three people who can actually tolerate me here in Folkmore, so I'll be there.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Okay. I'll see you there.

[ He's curious to know who the other two are, but anyway... ]
