general texting meme
To kick us off with some voice testing, here's a 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, any preferences, a start, absolutely nothing, or whatever you want. Run around and reply to others. Lather, rinse, repeat.

He set the record straight himself. I...

[She hesitated visibly, eyes flickering up to his. There was something... apologetic, almost, in her gaze.]

I trust you implicitly in objective matters and experiences, but I must admit that I never take much stock in your assumptions that I will be universally liked or welcome. To me, it always seemed that relying too . heavily on the ties you founded would be... a burden. Insulting, even, because friendship is not something meant to be inherited.

[She dropped her gaze down again.]

They were always worth protecting. That was the hardest part of it, perhaps; they all loved me, certainly, and they lingered generation after generation until it was no longer feasible to stay, but... they still left. They loved me, but they needed more from life and the cities and the world. It wasn't enough.

[She wasn't enough, lingers unsaid but very much believed.]

I'd like that. Thank you.

[If she was worried Sukuna would take offense to that sort of sentiment, she didn't need to worry. It was difficult to say if he had always adored her as much as he did now, or if her accepting his old position had only worsened his affection for her. It had been a tragedy, to see her as her shrine slowly faded from human memory. How could anyone knowing where she had come from and how she had worked so tirelessly to complete all her duties not like her?

Frowning slightly, Sukuna leaned back from the table.]

So it's fine to assume the ill will I've amassed, but not the good will? It's not a burden or an obligation to be friends with a friend of someone you already cared for.

[The rest of it, however, he didn't have as good an argument against. Instead he nudged their knees together in commiseration, quiet for a moment as if to pay respect to the humans who had loved and tried to stay with Okakou.]

Very few things can last forever without changing. You can't take it as a failing anymore than the shore can be blamed for eroding into the ocean.

[Okakou has spent so much of her life loving fleeting creatures like humans . and travelers passing through that something in her connected to consciously recognizing when she is loved back, continually, has rusted over from disuse.]

Dislike isn't something necessarily earned.

[She nudged his knee back, smiling faintly.]

Thank you. That's sweet of you to say.
