misfired text.

Cecily,

I'm taking Pup out for most of the day today--he could use more time outside the house and there's something I want to try with him. There's food in the icebox if you get hungry before I get back home. I'm thinking of stopping by the orchard and bringing back some fruit as well. It won't be anything familiar, but Maker willing it won't be too terrible.

Let me know if you need me back sooner than this evening.

All my love,

Cullen

[ in case it wasn't obvious, this message was intended for one recipient instead of, well. the entirety of hadriel. but thanks to rage mixing up things with communicators, all of the murdercave gets to see the commander be a domestic sap. and he is going to be so pissed about it. ]

[ Cecily has no idea that the original message was sent to the entire network and would likely not be bothered by the idea. So, she sends back a reply, typing and sending:

"Message received. If you're trying to teach him to speak, you may be disappointed. You know that I CAN feed myself, don't you? There's only been one incident, thank you very much. Please be careful."

Instead, what he receives is this: ]

kk have fun w/ dog :) will b trying not 2 get into trouble but it's hard b/c this place is inSANE!!!!!!!!! come back now 4 a tickle fight LOL jk can u imagine xoxoxoxo smooches love love - inquisitorr trevelYEAH (cecily)

[ Also attached is a photo of a nug that's been dressed up. ]

[ congrats, cecily. yours is the first misfire/mess up of this whole thing to make him smile. ]

I'm not sure what's more funny--the nug or "trevelYEAH." Sounds like something Sera would come up with.

The what? What about Sera?

Read back what you wrote to me.

[ She does, and there's a delay before what he can easily imagine is a flustered response: "I am going to MURDER them." What is sent, though, is: ]

murder caves and chill?? y/n (¬‿¬)

I think I'll skip the murder if it's all the same to you.

Might I suggest using audio instead of text?

[ And so she switches to audio, sounding mildly exasperated. ]

I knew these things were no good.

[ Also, though, her voice is pitched up an octave. ]

I'm more inclined to think someone else is causing this. I've been using these for seven months now and nothing like this has happened before.

[ and he is very carefully not mentioning that she now sounds like a chipmunk. ]

[ He needn't mention it, both because of her inevitable fury and for the fact that, with a gradual waver, her voice's pitch returns to normal.

For now. ]

Of course someone else - some god - is causing it. It's still coming through here.

[ mumble mumble. ]

(•⊙ω⊙•)

[ that's really not what she meant to send ]

[ squints ]

What is that supposed to be?

「(°ヘ°)

[ and then she switches it quickly because holy hell. ]

I was teasing you for the text, but all my text messages have been turning into... those weird emoji.

[ there's a small pause as cullen flips back and realizes that he sent that to everyone. ]

Oh, for--really? I know for a fact I pushed the right buttons to only send that message to Cecily.

[ Sharon laughs lightly. ]

All I know is that it was sent to everyone, and it is making my day. All my love. [ She attempts to mimic the accent, and lowness of his voice, but it really just sounds... ridiculous. She just thinks they're really cute together, and he's a big ol' softie. ]

[ :T ]

I'm glad someone's amused. [ because he really isn't. ]

Hey, it's just nice to see how adorable you are with her! [ a glimpse into their relationship when there's no one else around. she's glad he's good to her. ]

"Adorable" isn't a word that's usually ascribed to me.

[ he's not sure if he likes it. under other circumstances, he'd take it with grace, but somebody's a little put-out his relationship was broadcast for all to see. ]
