MISFIRES

a rambunctious duo in salt has stuck their nose where they shouldn't and now you can all reap the rewards! this is a MISFIRES meme. post a header for your character, and receive accidental texts from your local saltburntian guests. nudes, nasties, confessions of a certain persuasion? things you'd otherwise never write or send? they're all on the table. (meme threads aren't game canon, but they're not not game canon either, right)

[mygoodsir]

Thank you kindly.

A proper stunner.

[longlegs]

stunner
that's cute
and so are you :)

[ ... ]

this is where i ask if you're gay and you say yes and i just delete the whole conversation so there's one less proof of me being a total embarrassment isn't it

[mygoodsir]

Thank you.

Not at all. I'm an equal opportunist. This is where I ask if you'd like a drink, perhaps?

[longlegs]

okay well, ego saved

i think i would actually
where do you wanna go?

[mygoodsir]

There's a lovely terrace on the north side of the manor. Good view. I could bring up a bottle of something.

[longlegs]

sounds great
make it sweet
now?

[mygoodsir]

I can do sweet.

Certainly.

[longlegs]

text me when you're up there

[ She's not going through the effort only to risk being stood up, thanks. ]

[mygoodsir]

[He would never! No, he just gets a nice bottle of rosè and heads up.]

Arrived.

[longlegs]

omw!

[ And there she is, keeping it... relatively simple, for her usual style. Mila's fixing her hair a little, brushing some strands behind her ear, sliding her sunglasses down from her head to the bridge of her nose once she's outside. ]

Hey there, doctor.

[mygoodsir]

[Oh. He really is a sucker for good legs. Harry smiles, which makes him look a lot less like a depressed English professor, and holds up the bottle of wine.]

I do hope this will suffice.

[He uncorks it and pours her a glass first, because he's a gentleman.]

It's lovely to meet you.

[longlegs]

[ A gentleman. She takes the glass, biting her lower lip, looking at him from head to toe appreciatively. Mila maybe needs to stop wearing all these platforms, she keeps towering over the people she wants to impress — unless they're into that. ]

Lovely to meet you too. I don't usually hang out with doctors, [ For fun, anyway. ] So what brought you to Saltburnt, Harry?

[mygoodsir]

[Harry is so used to being the short one that he doesn't even register it.]

Well, I'll try not to give all medical professionals a bad name, then.

[He pours himself a glass, too.]

I'm an old family friend. I haven't been in a few years - my ex wasn't particularly fond of English summers. I felt like I needed a holiday and this seemed a lovely choice.

[longlegs]

[ She makes an eh face, shrugging softly. ] English summer lasts like, three days, so we get what we can, huh.

[ She raises her glass. ]

To the best holiday ever.

[mygoodsir]

[That makes him laugh, soft and warm.

He gently clinks glasses with her.]

The best.

What brings you here? Do you run in the same circles as the younger Balfours?

[longlegs]

I do now. [ Tilting her head a little bit, longer hair draping with the movement, she grins. ] My dad's the one who's close with the family. I kinda just go everywhere he goes.

Is it as wild for you as it's been for me?

[mygoodsir]

Ah, I understand. Is your father here?

[He's had enough of angry dads, okay?]

Oh, lord. I wish I could say no. But it's been far, far too eventful. I could frankly use a break.

[longlegs]

Yep! And I'm done talking about him now.

[ She says so cheerfully, a charming little shrug with a sigh. ]

You need a break from a break? Talk about a brag. What's going on?

[mygoodsir]

[Oh boy. This can't end well.

So he just smiles, because fuck it.]

My darling girl, the list of my personal dramas would bore you to tears. Instead why don't you tell me what you do for fun.

[longlegs]

[ Oh, mysterious. ]

Me? I just party and hang out with my friends, usually. I basically live by the lake or the pool when the sun's out. I mean, I've got my own hobbies, but literally two people here care about those.

[ And she's not even talking about the hacking. ]

[mygoodsir]

I'd be very interested in hearing about your hobbies. People who have a passion in life tend to be more interesting.

[longlegs]

[ Oh, ugh, still charming. It takes her a while, delayed even further by sipping at the drink. There's a reason she hesitates to bring this one up with someone outside of a certain age range - or the majority of profiles of the younger guests, even. There's a whole list of what qualifies someone to hear about this without making her feel embarrassed, and while Harry wouldn't be on that list, he's also a near-perfect-stranger. So hey.

Mila's usual bubbly confidence tones down a little. ]

'You know what anime is, right?

[mygoodsir]

I believe so. It's the animation from Japan? I can't say I've seen much of it outside of a few films.

You're a fan, I take it?
