I’m gonna send some dumb questions because I’m bored- here’s the first one: what do you think each of the characters are like as texters? Who takes forever to respond? Who double and triple texts? Who sends gifs and memes? Who never uses emojis and never plans on it? Who uses a lot of emojis? I feel like Buck double and triple texts and sends gifs. He either responds to texts when he gets them or a week later. Albert sends memes and also double/triple texts. Chim responds to Maddie in a timely manner but to everyone else who texts him, he takes a little while to respond. Eddie doesn’t strike me as much of an emoji guy. Maybe the 🤨 emoji or the 😂 laughing emoji but that’s really it. He always responds to texts in a timely manner almost immediately. I feel like Hen responds to most if not all of her texts in a timely manner and she uses the iPhone animated emoji avatar thing I forget what that’s called but I feel like she sends that a lot to people

Oh, eddie definitely takes forever to respond. the man always has his phone on do no disturb, and the only numbers able to get through it are chris’ school, carla, abuela, and pepa. buck used to be there, but he wouldn’t stop texting eddie randomly at three in the morning, so he had to take him off.

i feel like meme people and gif people are two different breeds. like bobby is very much a Gif Man, I know you said albert sends memes chim has probably the most extensive meme folder of anyone at the 118 (maybe good memeing just runs in the han family?). (also once bobby figures out how to send gifs, he adds them to everything he sends. his favourite gif is this one of a family all sitting down at the table for dinner, and he makes sure to use it every time a meal is ready, and he’ll add a little comment like “grubs up!” or “come fill your boots!”)

eddie definitely isn’t an emoji guy. he tried to once because of chris (dad, you can just do :) every time!! there’s emojis for a reason), but as quickly as chris encouraged him, he put a stop to it. there’s only so much of “hey chris 👋🏻 make sure to remind abuela 👵 that you’re going to jessie’s 👧 birthday party 🥳 🎂 🎉 tomorrow!! it’s a pool 🏊‍♂️ party so make sure you have your swimsuit 🩳” a kid can take.

maddie uses a lot of emojis. not the same way eddie does (thank god), but in the exact way that a millennial would. (one night she’s hanging out with karen and eddie watching real housewives, and sends chim a selfie of them all with wine glasses (and eddie rolling his eyes) captioning it “girls night 🍷 💅💁‍♀️”)

buck absolutely triple texts. also he texts exactly how he speaks. like you know when you’re reading someone’s texts and you can tell exactly how they would be saying it? yeah that’s buck (am i projecting? yes. am i right? also yes). buck will see a text and mean to respond but just forgets because he put his phone down to grab something and suddenly it’s like the text didn’t exist.

hen being an animoji person is both ridiculous but also makes so much sense. i can just picture her sending one to chim (parenting advice maybe?) and she’s like a *spins wheel* tiger, and what she’s saying is actually helpful, but chim is so overtired that he can’t stop laughing (he shows it to maddie too and both of them are in stitches)

sleepover weekend!!
