SUDDENLY: MISTLETOE.

[fu_noobspeaker]

Well gosh! It's all so festive, y'all!

[TODAY, there is mistletoe everywhere. Hanging over obnoxious cabin overhangs, planted in inappropriate spots in the mess hall, twisted around various poles and the few trees in farm camp - you name it, you can probably find it there.

happy holidays. :') ]

It's called mistletoe.

[nonrecon]

[Slowly:] Mistletoe?

It wasn't here earlier.

[blue_on_deck]

It's for some holiday.

[nonrecon]

More Earth holidays. We just had one!

How many can there possibly be?

[blue_on_deck]

Too many, but there's more to it.

[nonrecon]

How do you mean?

[blue_on_deck]

Camp's mistletoe m=forces you to kiss each other.

[Which is why he is keeping his distance.]

[... twisting the sprig between her fingers. The wheels are turning and it's all your fault.]

Really.

[blue_on_deck]

Yeah. . .

[ A little faster than he expected.]

[nonrecon]

What if I don't believe you?

[blue_on_deck]

Go find out for yourself.

[nonrecon]

I would, but you're all the way over there and anatomy doesn't work that way.

[Mostly kidding.]

[blue_on_deck]

Camp is crawling with suckers to try it on.

[nonrecon]

[You brought this on yourself.]

... but what if I don't want just any sucker?

[blue_on_deck]

Then do what you usually do.

[nonrecon]

[Stepping a little closer, under the pretense of pacing.]

That could be a problem.
