[meme] cell phones

[thetinydemon]

Suggested by shelightsupwell!

Cell phones are such an important part of our every day lives, but have you taken the time to consider what your pups' cell phones might be like? What model do they use? Do they use it mostly for texting? What games do they play? What does their wallpaper look like? Their contact lists?

Tag in with your pups, including what kind of phone they carry, and if you'd like, with a picture of their lock screen wallpaper, and any other information you'd like to give. Then, reply to each other, answering the following questions about your pups' cell phones:

- what their pup’s name is in your pup’s phone
- what their pup's picture is in your pup’s phone
- what ringtone represents their pup in your pup's phone
- your pup's last text to their pup.

 

 

 

Have fun!

Neil McCormick carries a standard, cheap flip phone, with the default wallpaper. It probably has Solitaire and Snake, but he never plays either.

[minimumbullshit]

Brian Kinney has the latest model of Darrow's answer to the iPhone. He has a standard lock screen. He doesn't have many games, but he gets a lot of use out of Darrow's version of Grindr.

[willnothide]

Kili has the Darrow version of the iPhone because he loves the emojis~ but his lock screen is default because he hasn't bothered to learn how to change it.

[sonofdurin]

- Kíli's in Fíli's phone as Nadad, obvs
- There's a 99.9999999999% chance that his picture's a photo Fíli took of him doing something stupid, which he's only getting away with because Kíli doesn't know about it
- Default ringtone bc Fíli doesn't know how to change it and wouldn't bother if he did
- consider yourself lucky that i don't know how to block your number yet

Carl Grimes has a smartphone, a few models back from the current, with an olive green anti-shatter cover. He's got a lot of games (Furious Pigeons, Sweet Smash, etc), but he doesn't play them that often. His lock-screen wallpaper is:

[and_survive]

It's 'Carl,' with no picture or ringtone because she hasn't worked that stuff out yet.

do you know how to throw a boomerang? I forgot followed immediately by nevermind it came back to me

[adifferentpath]

Lee Adama carries something comparable to a Blackberry. His background is one of the default ones that comes with the phone-- a sky-- and he gets a lot of use out of having his email app.

[losttheright]

— Lee's name in Molly's phone is just his name, because she's boring and probably added it before they got super close anyway.
— His picture is one of the two of them, taken without Molly's knowledge by one of her coworkers at the Christmas party last December and sent to her after the fact. In it, she's looking at him like she's completely enamored with him, though she'd deny that if asked about it.
— Molly left her ringtone default, so no one gets anything special.
— did I leave a dark blue blazer at your place???? ugh forget it I'm coming over to look

[sciencesaggressively]

Newt has an iPhone for personal use and a ghetto Blackberry for work.

Lock screen on his personal:



and the lock screen on his work phone is a photo of his late, great kaiju skin louse Seymour.

[neither_a_nor_b]

Bay Kennish has a Darrow iPhone and uses the FaceTime features a LOT to speak to her sister via sign language. Her lock screen is a selfie with Scott and her wallpaper is a photo of Scott while asleep. She doesn't have lots of games but she takes TONS of photos and runs the cat cafe's Chirper account. The only game she really plays is a stupid virtual pet game called Catsunami.

[femmejosephine]

Would Catsunami be an analog of a game in which lots of cats come to your yard and give you silver and gold fish? :)

(And if you don't know what I'm talking about, consider yourself lucky.)

[youfeelluckypunk]

Reid has a pretty generic flip phone, which he might upgrade someday. Today is not that day. He really only uses it for texts and calls, no games or interwebs or e-mail or anything like that.

[silverhammer]

Max Carrigan has the generic phone that you get with the information packet. If the background or ringtone is ever changed from the standard, it's because someone else does it, and he mostly uses it for calls.

[minimumbullshit]

- Brian put Max's name in as Mister Claus, last Christmas, and never changed it.
- His picture is an artfully out of focus shot that Brian snapped while Max was probably naked, but you can really only see his shoulder and his profile.
- None of Brian's ringtones are personalized.
- bend over and i'll show you.

[losttheright]

Molly Stearns carries an iPhone-esque smartphone, on which she has a lot of games, even if she uses it more frequently for email. In one of the greatest acts of self-trolling ever, her lock screen is this cat.

[beyoncepadthai]

- Molly, no doubt with a kissy-faced emoji.
- One taken at her birthday party. Post-movie, when Mindy was a little tipsy but still the queen of selfies. It's super cute. They're super cute.
- The standard, Mindy is much more concerned with choosing the perfect ringtone for herself.
- Okay, so he fell down an elevator shaft, but people can totally survive that, right??? It was only... 72 floors.

[nabooqueen]

Padmé Amidala has the Darrow-brand smartphone she got when she arrived. Her wallpaper is the northern lights - one of the default backgrounds - and she has a lot of organizational apps, plus Wikipedia and whatever the Darrow equivalent of the NYT Crossword app is.

[femmejosephine]

Padme needs the Darrow version of an app like Words with Friends. I bet she'd like it.

(Syllables with Acquaintances?)

[triskehale]

Derek carries Darrow's answer to the iPhone. His lock screen is a picture of the ocean from the cliff in the woods he often frequents, and his background is of his cat. He doesn't really play games, but he gets use out of his lunar calendar app.

And fine, Angry Birds.

[sonofdurin]

- Fíli made Derek enter his own info into his phone, so presumably he's in there under his own name
- His picture is a slightly blurry shot of Derek wearing a lei and glaring bloody murder at somebody, taken during the Island Night fiasco
- Fíli hasn't personalized any of his ringtones
- i don't know but it's probably k's fault

[notaretriever]

Luke Garroway has the generic phone he received with his welcome package. He hasn't changed anything because technology is still a little weird to him after spending the first 25 years of his life in a world without electricity or any modern technology. He's not completely terrible with it, though, and uses it for calls and texting both.

[youfeelluckypunk]

-Luke
-Probably something very similar to this, which Reid would have acquired by very awkwardly trying to be casual about snapping a pic of Luke. "Hey, um, can you-- Hey, just look over here."
-Default because come on
-Morning. I've somehow found myself with an extra cup of coffee, mind if I stop by the store?

[heretofight]

Tommy Conlon has a generic smartphone, the same one he received upon arrival, even though the case is cracked. His lock screen is a picture of his dog.

[sonofdurin]

Fíli has the Darrow equivalent of the iPhone. He pretty much never uses it for anything but communication, and his lock screen is a photo of him and Kíli making stupid faces.

[willnothide]

I imagine Kili has asked Fili to show him how to change the lock screen and is WRONGFULLY DENIED.

It WOULD be this though:



Name in phone: nadad
Pic and Ringtone: DOESN'T KNOW HOW, THANKS BRO >:O
Last text: a series of smiley poop emojis

[light_of_the_world]

Hild has the Darrow equivalent of the iPhone (with largest storage) because she likes taking pictures and movies. Of everything, of people, of animals, of nature. She floods her Instagram daily. She also records the sounds of things: people talking, people walking, wind through leaves, bird song. It's probably a little scuffed up but not cracked. The wallpaper and tones are default, and you'll have a hard time getting her to text you or call you back. She prefers taking face to face.

[shieldmaiden_rohan]

-Lady Hild
-A picture of yarn
-No custom tone
-No last text. For reasons of writing. :)

[lightaffinity]

Rae Seddon has a fairly recent model of flip phone, though it's not of a brand anyone from Darrow or the ~real world would recognize. The apps on her phone are all holdovers from the time when she could actually look at screens, so she doesn't use it for anything except phone calls these days. Her wallpaper is a photo of the staff at Charlie's, back home.

[a_littlefaith]

Beth Green has a Darrow version of an iPhone, because once she got technology back she dove right into it. Her lock screen is this picture she took of Anthony.

She loves emojis, she texts all the time. She sends pictures a lot and she personalizes everyone's ringtones.

[everyonetakes]

Kate Gregson has the latest version of the Darrow iPhone and she uses it constantly. Texting, calling, email, twitter, Instagram, every possible social media available, she uses her phone for it. Her lock screen is this picture of her and Newt together.

Basically she loves her phone.

[pontmercyfriend]

- Mademoiselle Kate
- Probably a cute picture of her smiling
- He has no idea how to work fancy, indivdualized ringtones yet
- Kate! I just read this fantastic new novel and - oh dear

[improvises]

Sam Flynn has the latest model iPhone-type phone, with an assortment of random apps on it, mostly ones he downloaded just to try out and hasn't used again since. His lock screen is a super cute picture of Jordan playing with Marvin; he has a bunch of those, so he probably changes it pretty regularly.

[bryanzilla]

Bryan Collins still carries his servicesless iPhone from home along with the one he received upon arrival in Darrow. He uses his phone mostly for texting and taking pictures and video of Sawyer to share with David while he's away at work. And Twitter, but he finds that much less interesting now that there aren't any celebrities to follow and he has no fanbase of his own to interact with. His lock screen on his Darrow phone changes frequently, to whatever his new favorite image of his boys happens to be that day, but the phone from home always has this image:

[cazzasaurus]

N'aww, I just saw this! Bryan looks really short-sighted in that icon XD Perfect David looks perfect in the photo.

[likeahero]

Oliver has the latest Darrow equivalent of the Samsung Galaxy is. It's probably been rooted by Felicity and along with the normal apps he has a few communication/police scanner apps, GPS trackers and cell phone cloning functions in it. (Thanks, bae.) His lock screen is just a default wallpaper pattern.

Felicity:


Thea (she stole his phone and he's too lazy to change it):

[one_more_question]

Bae always has his back. :D

- She just has him in her phone as Oliver, probably
- his picture:

- she'd probably want to assign a ringtone to him that's some kind of cheesy song about heroes but she'd be to worried about that giving away something so she'd just use one of the rings that comes with the phone XD
- I still crave dim sum after fisticuffs, jsyk

[latterdaysaint]

Kevin Price evidently uses his phone to drunk dial people and online shop for flowers. Other than that, he doesn't use his phone often since he's technically not supposed to have one. He has whatever phone comes with the welcome packet and all the setting remain just as they were on day one.

[pointzerothree]

Eduardo Saverin has a phone much like a Blackberry, probably recently upgraded. He uses it mostly for email and the like, though he also — of course — has BurnBox, and a couple games that Olive mentioned but that he doesn't really use much. His lock screen is a picture taken in his backyard of Olive and Duckie with Sean Parker the chicken in the background.

[floozyfacade]

name: Eduardo
picture: One of him sitting in his office that she made him look at her for, telling him to stay still and look at the camera because it's for her contacts. She has more personal pictures, including the one she uses as a lock screen, and less guarded moments, but she's also conscious of how visible contact pictures are in public, so she picked something sort of neutral.
ringtone: "Empire" by Ella Henderson
text: !!!!!

[formerlysiryn]

Terry has the Darrow equivalent of an iPhone and mostly has game apps to pass the time. She probably has all the social media apps but frequently forgets to use them.

Her lock screen is a selfie of her and Sean that she probably cajoled him into taking.
