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.

[ the fact hiiragi can get a read on him even over text makes shouma sigh. he's working his way through that second cigarette quickly. ]

i don't wanna mess with anything with your band
you've been working really hard

[ and the more popular syh gets, the more eyes will be watching hiiragi. it's hard not to think about what yuki said, even if only because it validated his own worries. ]

hey
did someone say something to yuo?

[ he has this sinking feeling. out of protectiveness sometimes he knows...ah he feels like he shouldn't have sent yuki that picture asking for his opinion...ah. ]

even if they did i still want to see you
it shouldnt mess anything up
its a secret i mean

[ please... ]

i'm not bothered even if they did, hiiragi
good friends would say something, wouldn't they?
it's not like my job is a secret

[ what with his tattoos being a dead giveaway. he can't even fault yuki for saying something. he's done the same for yoshino. ]

i still wanna see you too
i just wanna make sure nothing happens

[ for a moment hiiragi hesitates not about his feelings for shouma but because it makes him think about yuki again. normally asking these things...it would just be a good friend thing. but lately yuki has been...erratic. very hot or very cold. clinging in a joking way that's not a joke, and flighty the next. it doesn't show on stage or even often in the studio. but hiiragi knows he's using more and sometimes that makes him...

he sighs. shouma still wants to see him. that's more than enough. he won't bother him with the messiness of what's been going on with syh stuff off camera. ]

what about your schedule?
i dont want to make it harder for you
work or school

i want it to be a good thing

[ and hopefully nothing bad happens . hiiragi does understand now at least, the risk. even if he doesn't remember what happened clearly. that he could be hurt again. could die. or worse.

but none of that feels as real as his need to see shouma. ]

[ it seems like there's something else going on, but shouma lets it go when hiiragi does, moving on to the safer topic of schedule conflicts. it's hard to press when he's in the dark. the distance between them doesn't help that. ]

i can make it work if it's just the restaurant or school
and i'd probably only be able to swing it for a night again

[ hiiragi swallows. second guessing. his heart is in his throat. ]

either of these dates
i should be free by early evening

[ he sends his calendar, one day this week and one day next circled with teal ]

i could even try to come to you
if it's easier for you

[ and then take the first train the next morning ]

how about this week then?
i'll pick a hotel that's close but not too close

let's keep it easier for you until you want a vacation

okay
yeah
that sounds good

sooner is better

hey do you have a favorite color?

i'll send you the details once i book it
you can drop by whenever you're free

[ only because that sounds better than i'll wait for you. ]

maybe red if i had to pick
why? what's yours?

[ a happy li'l yellow cat sticker with a flower. cause it's' less embarrassing than hiiragi saying 'i'm really happy' or 'i wish it was sooner' ]

ooh okay i'll remember that!
oh um no specific reason i just
like to know these things

[ about people he likes as friends or er more than friends ]

yellow! and gold
but i like most colors

[ honestly, shouma's never really cared about pinpointing his favorite color, but... maybe it was an easy decision with red being prominent in his tattoos. he owes the somei family basically everything.

and, before he can stop himself: ]

like your eyes then
that makes sense

oh um yeah
i never thought of it like that haha
people always ask me if theyre contacts

[ shouma is getting a little red syh keychain that looks like a bass pick... but also hiiragi is maybe going to wear red. maybe. he doesn't know shouma's reason for red of course, but he doesn't want to seem too prying. ]

probably because they're jealous
they suit you

so
you like them?

yeah i like them a lot
you have pretty eyes

so do you

i mean i like everything
you

[ holding his phone to his face. but he is also thinking about the kiss again. ]

[ shouma has been with a lot of people, but somehow hiiragi manages to catch him off guard every single time. he likes him more than he's ever liked anyone, he thinks. ]

i guess i can't complain about them if you like them

you could
but i really like them

i wish it was sooner

[ hiiragi is so down bad that in a better mood yuki teases him. less so lately.

absently hiiragi touches his fingertips to his mouth. it was a good first kiss. he thinks. ]

yeah me too

[ shouma's already looking at that other day hiiragi circled, but... maybe it's better to play it by ear for now.

after a beat or two, he sends hiiragi a picture of everything with the standees, but that bracelet is still in his pocket from a day full of carting it around with him. ]

[ !!! the way hiiragi lights up is 200% joy. it's like when he's on stage but also different, because it's private and it's...he feels so warm. too bad he can't somehow magically appear in kyoto right now. ]

it looks even better with everything there!

[ cute cat sticker #582

a few seconds ]

maybe i can't see it in the pic but
is there a bracelet there too?

[ from jubilation to embarrassment again. he shouldve just given to shouma face to face ahhh ]

the one you left here?

[ with a picture of that bracelet sitting on his bedsheets. he should have returned it when they met up at the hotel, but his head was full of other things at the time. ]

sorry i meant to give it back when we met up
i've just been keeping it in my pocket

n o no
keep it!!!

[ covering his face with his hands... ]

i didnt remember to ask either

[ hiiragi was also preoccupied with...other things. ]

i made it for you
i mean
it's yours so

you dont have to wear it or anything
i just
oh i should change the bead actually
bring it with you?

[ hiiragi will go out and find a red glass bead to replace the teal one. ]

oh i thought you just forgot it
i'll wear it

[ every single day now. at least it's no longer pocket bound. ]

why do you wanna change the bead?

i mean
your favorite color is red
im sure i can find a nice one

[ typing deleting typing deleting typing ]

let me know if it's too tight or too loose!
i can fix that too

[ cat sticker where its smooshing its own cheeks, v pleased with itself. doesnt account for hiiragi's remaining embarrassment bc of course shouma just thought he forgot it since hiiragi didnt SAy anything... ]

[ so cute... ]

no i like it like it is
it's perfect

[ maybe teal isn't his favorite color, but hiiragi picked it out. ]
