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. :') ]

I have heard of adults who are fond of it as well, although this much mistletoe is entirely unnecessary.

[fanserv_ice]

Adults or not it's still childish.

[lunadickery]

I don't disagree. I feel it's often utilized more as a tool for humiliation than an expression of holiday cheer.

[fanserv_ice]

... Maybe that's a little too harsh, Mr. Petrov.

[lunadickery]

I have seen mistletoe hanging over the doorways of police interrogation rooms.

[fanserv_ice]

There's no way that's true! Why would they even put it there?! -please don't answer.

[lunadickery]

My thoughts exactly, Miss Lyle.

[...he is starting to inch closer]

[fanserv_ice]

[blinks a few times, surprised, but doesn't move]

...Hah?

[lunadickery]

[He hasn't noticed quite yet]

Is something wrong?

[fanserv_ice]

You're getting a little too close, Mr. Petrov.

[lunadickery]

[FREEZING]

...Miss Lyle, I don't mean to startle you, but can you move at the moment?

[fanserv_ice]

[she tries and... no, nothing. And now she the one who's inching closer, without noticing]

What's the meaning of this!? Ugh! This is why I hate this place!

[lunadickery]

[And he's moving closer again! WHAT DO]

Once again, my thoughts exactly. I deeply apologize in advance if something happens. It seems this place has a crude sense of humor.

[fanserv_ice]

I think I get what's supposed to happen.

[there is DESPAIR in her voice]

[lunadickery]

[She's not the only one whose voice is laden with despair.]

I think I do as well, and I would rather not, if possible. I am truly sorry.

[MOVING IN AND KISSING HER-

on the forehead.]

[fanserv_ice]

[that was unexpected, but it works!]

Ah- I can move again.
