Unsent

unsent texts
① comment with your character. ② repliers queue up a text (or two or three to choose from) that they typed up, but never sent. ③ only they fat-fingered and set them flying out of the outbox into infamy. ④ it's two in the morning jfc why are you asking me if i'd love you if you were a worm? no, i don't think my little pony is a metaphor for communism. go to sleep. check out theunsentproject if you'd like more serious ideas. |
faye valentine ( cowboy bebop )
as the prophecy foretold
you’d actually make a cute housewife someday.
( he didn’t mean to hit send. oops. )
😌
You've been drinking, huh.
[ ain't no way he sent that to her of sober mind. ]
no subject
no spike decided to take the usual route of ambiguity he seemed to strive on. )
oh did that actually send? geez I really should have my phone looked into. damn thing glitches out all the time you know?
no subject
So you haven't been drinking... ?
[ she just wants to be sure!! ]
no subject
( is he acting just a bit more 'hurt' than he really is? of course, but anything to deflect from his comment that came from a peaceful dream he just had. )
and even if I was, would that change anything? the message was sent.
no subject
So the fact you weren't kind of does change things.
[ spike understands that, right? why she might suddenly become hesitant when that 'something sweet' stems from a sober mind? ]
What made you want to tell me that?
no subject
( he does to an extent— whether or not he wants to admit it, is a whole different story though.
but he is feeling just a bit sappy, so don’t mind him actually giving in just a bit more. )
I even dreamt you had pearls and a white frilly apron on.
no subject
Sounds like you wanna turn me into a housewife, Spike.
Is that what you see for us?
[ if he wants to be a sap.... well. maybe she wants to play into it a little. ]
no subject
( or maybe just deep down inside, in the depths of his subconscious mind he really did want that kind of future for them. more for himself but given the fact they started to become closer and closer over time well....
it was silly to ruminate or fight it really. )
wouldn't be so bad though now would it?
no subject
[ not that she's trying to dig something out of this that might not even be there. spike was always messing with her. hardly ever serious. where she might read his text as sappy, he could easily mean it sarcastically. she tries to not muddy the tone too much. ]
I've just never really pictured myself that way.
Guess I didn't think I was cut out for that sort of life.
no subject
( far from sarcastic but he still didn't want to admit his feelings outright. after all, he had done enough of that recently and he truly didn't want to say something even more 'stupid'.
not when he wasn't sure he could fully trust her given his own baggage. )
you could always change you know? start a new somewhere, settle down. though I imagine it's easier said than done.
no subject
[ all the right dots. almost sounds like he wants something like that. with her. ]
It is easier said than done. So why say it at all?
Trying to will it into the universe?
