ITP: Even more misteltoe

[waylaidvagrant]

[Out in the cornfields, an odd little chess-piece man man is busy removing strange weeds that have recently started appearing on his beloved cornstalks... Unfortunately, most of the plants he tosses out of the field are ending up on walkways perilously close to the center of camp. Have fun with that.]

((mingle and smooch!))

Problem?

[ridestherider]

Never-ending frustration, more like.

Hi, Sophie-Anne.

[painintheneck]

Oh, I think it's fun.

[ridestherider]

I'm sure it is, for a lot of people.

[painintheneck]

Not for you?

[ridestherider]

It ... sort of exacerbates a certain problem.

[painintheneck]

[INTERESTING]

What kind of problem?

[ridestherider]

[Hesitates.]

You're not just going to make fun of me or something, are you?

[painintheneck]

Would I do that? We barely know each other!

[ridestherider]

It's happened. I mean, I know this is Camp, but it's happened.

My boyfriend sort of ... doesn't want to kiss me, I guess?

[painintheneck]

... Really?

[ridestherider]

He's not very good at being affectionate, I guess. Or maybe I'm just a terrible kisser and he won't tell me, I don't know.

We like each other, but mostly we just fight. ... which isn't actually any different than what we were like before we got together, so at least that's normal.

[painintheneck]

Sounds like it's time to get a new boyfriend.

[ridestherider]

You'd think, anyway. It's not as easy as that when you feel strongly about a person. It took us years to even admit anything.

[painintheneck]

So, let me get this straight. It took you years to admit that you want to fuck each other. But now that you've admitted it, he won't even kiss you?

[ridestherider]

[khsdfkjh flustered, now.] I-I never said anything about that, just -- that we like one another!
