[meme] cell phones

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.

Thomas Sharpe has the same phone he arrived in Darrow with, though he's keen to upgrade now that he's getting the hang of modern technology. His contacts list is still small, but slowly growing. He probably talks to Bitty and Edith the most.

He has a lot of pictures - ever since he figured out how to use the camera he's been rather enamored with it. Many are of Edith on their outings together, others are of book titles or things he wants to look up later.

Wallpaper:

Tim Drake uses a second-hand Lenovo Vibe Shot that he upgraded to after saving up a little. He's considering upgrading again to a Galaxy Edge, because he's a trend-chasing technophile, but he genuinely loves the camera on this phone. It's fantastic for when he's out of the suit and he doesn't have his DSLR with him.

Consequently, he has a lot of photos from around school and on the street between there and work on his phone. Some are related to detective work. Most are taken without subject's knowing ~~because he's a master creeper like that~~.

Tim also has some personally created apps on there to help with his ~~creeper~~detective work and some encrypted notes.

His wallpaper is a photo of Darrow at night, taken from a very high rooftop. The lock screen is a red Ducati Monster because he's lame and really, really misses his bike.

Being new means Coop's still got his Darrow issued phone. It's much nicer than the phone he did have so he'll keep that for awhile before deciding to update.

He's a fluent texter and prefers that over calling people. He's slowly building his collection of apps but the ones he uses the most are the Darrow equivalents of Facebook and Twitter to keep up with the population and to learn who's magical and who's not.

His collection of pictures is small, consisting of shots of various spots in Darrow. There aren't any shots of people at this time besides the ones Coop took of like his finger or foot while he was drunk one night.

His lockscreen is a bottle of booze, no doubt.

Kavinsky carries both his Darrow-supplied smartphone (~business~) and his iPhone 4s from home (~pleasure~). The Darrow-supplied smartphone has all generic lockscreen/wallpaper/etc, while his personal phone has a picture of the garden at his, Newt, and Al's house for lockscreen, and a picture of Newt and Al for the wallpaper.

He's in Jack's phone as KAVINSKY. The current picture attached to his name is a selfie from Poison's gig, with Jack leaning his chin on Kavinsky's shoulder. No personalised ringtone. Last text: WTF man. Stop.

Henry has his Darrow-issued phone ~~and hates it~~. The only thing he's done to it so far is make an app that translates all the settings and font to hangul, which he's still perfecting. Otherwise, everything's still set to factory default.

name: Henry (hand giving the peace sign emoji)

favorite picture: a picture of Henry making a face from the punch at prom
last text: do you like skateboarding?? (sunglasses emoji)

name: HCheng
ringtone the same one she has for everyone :P
picture: the selfie they took at prom with him making ducklips at the camera
last text: dance, dance and/or revolution?

Krem has the Darrow-issued cellphone. He's set his lockscreen to a generic, but the wallpaper is (currently) a picture of Aggie in her prom dress. He has a lot of pictures and music on his phone.

Name: Kremilious
Ringtone: "No Scrubs"
Picture: One he's taken of Krem fairly recently, for the explicit purpose of having a contact image, which they probably had a playful fight over because who else does Poison know who's named Krem.

-No ringtone.

Last Text: Nay, I must decline. Perhaps the following day?

(Yes, she put nay in a text. The woman texts like she talks)

Name: Krem
Ringtone: The one she has for everyone (it's not the default but it comes on the phone, some kind of synthy thing that sounds a little like the Labyrinth soundtrack)
Picture: Krem rolling his eyes at her taking a photo
Last text: sure, when?

Peter has the Darrow-issued smartphone, which he has not changed any factory settings on.

Billy has the generic Darrow standard phone but he's got some apps in it that are actually spells. They're basically hacker-type apps that let him make calls and things like that without being traced. For secret identity purposes.

All of his screens are just pictures of his girlfriend.

It's mostly full of photos and movies of his friends and his pets. There is one folder on there that's full of images of people who were close to him but have gone.

He's just "Billy" in Tim's phone because he's the boring Robin like that.

He'll eventually sneak in a goofier pic and change to that.

Ringtone is set to the guitar riff from "the Boys Are Back In Town."

Terry's got the last generation equivalent of an iPhone. Her lock screen is a selfie she took with her father, having cajoled/tricked/guilted him into taking it with her, and is one of the few pictures she has of him. It's never getting changed. Her background is some pretty landscape, and she has a slim protective case for it, which is green. (Of course.)

;___; Sean!selfie.

John has the newest Android type phone along the lines of a Note, something large and much too much phone for him. All he uses it for is to text, talk, and play Space Hospital Medical School, Kitten Pandemonium, and ALL THE EBOOKS. If he's reading his phone in public while waiting for Effie, there's a 99% chance it's some free erotica he picked up.

Lock Screen:

Her phone is a new model iPhone equivalent because she breaks it often since technology is so fragile. The lock screen and wallpaper are a picture of her and Kili, something like this:

Everyone is in the phone under their proper name and a normal picture of themselves. She does NOT let Kili touch her phone because he would probably mess it all up or get her contacts all disorganized.

It contains a lot of pictures of the forest around the city and other nature scenes. If someone looked through her recently deleted pics though there would probably be a few dirty pics to/from Kili.

-Captain Tauriel
-An elvish swirl from something
-No ringtone

Bellamy's on his second phone, having broken the first accidentally last year. It's whatever was the newest version of the smartphone he got when he arrived in the city, and he's taken care of it since. He mostly uses it to text Clarke and Raven, and to take pictures of everything. He's got a few of the more popular apps but doesn't really use them beyond playing some games every now and then.

His lock screen:

(They'd started on the alcohol part of their Find at Least One Weird Food a Week challenge.)

His home screen background is a Darrow version of this pic:

Castiel carries an Iphone three models old and he only knows how to use the phone feature, the camera and the text feature.

He doesn't understand how to do wallpaper

name: Castiel (angel emoji)
ringtone
favorite picture: all pictures of Castiel looking confused about something

Julie is content with the standard issue phone. Her wallpaper is a stock image that came with it, of mountains that look vaguely like they could be in Scotland. She doesn't use it a whole lot when she's out and about, usually just tosses it in her bag in case of emergency. She does dutifully enter the numbers of people she knows in her contacts, and always returns calls and texts promptly.

She tried using the map app, but it's even worse than Apple maps and only made her get lost more. She does use the Internet to fill in her gaps in history a lot. She probably donates to the Darrow version of Wikipedia, she uses it so much.

-Miss Julie (unless she's told him she's Lady Julie, and in that case it's that)
-No contact photo
-No ringtone

He doesn't call her, but I imagine they've exchanged numbers by now. He's probably offered to put her on his list of backup waitresses if she wants to pick up any other shifts.

Jack still carries the iPhone 6 he had with him when he arrived from San Francisco. It's in a see-through protective case. He communicates mostly by text, but he's also got the Darrow equivalent of Instagram. His lock screen is a quote in a font that he designed. It changes on a weekly basis - right now it's "THE OUTCOME OF THE WAR IS IN OUR HANDS". His wallpaper is a selfie of him and Poison in bed. His photos are meticulously organised into albums.

Name: Jack
Ringtone: A clip from "Planetary (Go!)"

Maria has a smartphone that's probably just over a year old now. Her phone is all about staying connected. She is a frequent caller and texter, and will want at least one group selfie (an usie?) almost every single time she hangs out with friends. There are also a bunch of regular selfies on there, because a girl needs to feel herself. She has all of the social media apps, but the app she uses most regularly is a music streaming service. There is one Candy Crush type game on there but it hasn't gotten much play.

A phone is also an important fashion accessory, and Maria has a small collection of phone cases. Her current favourite is:

Her fingernails have probably looked like that at some point, too.

Her wallpaper is a photograph of herself with friends at the film premiere. While she loved her old default ringtone, it's easy to get sick of a song when you're hearing it all the time, so it's now this.

Blue has the phone she got upon arrival, which is a pretty standard-issue Darrow phone: not an iPhone or Note lookalike by any means, but smart enough for apps, camera etc.

She doesn't really know how to make her own ringtones, but she has a different one than her compatriots in Hywel just so she knows when it's her phone. Blue texts pretty regularly, and randomly, but she misses stupid phone-tying-up conversations with curly cords attached and she'd still rather talk to a voice on the other end a little. She takes a lot of pictures of her friends.

Her home screen/lock screen wallpaper is a picture of the sun coming through the leaves in Cabeswater with some ~artsy~ filter on it.

Name: Sargent Blue
Ringtone: "Blue" Eiffel 65

Picture:

Grantaire has his Darrow-issued cell phone, and he uses it to text (sometimes at extreme length) because it's much easier for him to deal with the idea of written correspondence traveling over signal than it is to do disembodied voices without body language, for whatever reason.

(When he does talk on the phone, he tends to get up and pace or gesture a lot.)

He doesn't really use apps, but he takes pictures of his friends and loved ones and most of the time in the middle of doing things, the same way he likes to draw them. There's plenty of his cat in there, and reference pictures for drawings or just arty skylines or closeups.

His home screen is a closeup of Edgar laughing. It's cropped because it's the home screen but he's grabbing for the phone.

Arthur Stuart still thinks he's going to break this thing, but he's figured out quickly how to text even if he prefers the immediacy of a phone conversation.

He likes the streaming music apps (for one thing, he can at least cross reference who the hell people here attribute songs in his world to) and note abilities; his photos are mostly notes to himself, not to post anywhere. Arthur is not a selfie guy.

He'd probably really easily be suckered into stupid games, though.
