GUESS WHAT TIME IT IS

   MISTLETOE MEME 


All right guys, since we can't do this in-game, we shall have an OOC meme for it instead! Nothing will carry over into the game, so just have fun with it. Here's how it works:

• You are stuck under a random mistletoe.
• There is a note on said mistletoe.
• Whoever comes within range will be pulled under the mistletoe and also be stuck.
• Now you both have to do what the note says to get unstuck.
• EMOTIONS ARE STILL IN EFFECT so have fun with that.

State your preferences!

1. Hug. Easy enough. Can be a simple hug or a giant bear hug.
2. Kiss on the cheek. For those who might be a little shier.
3. Kiss on the hand. For those who want to be...well, whatever kissing on the hand invokes. Charming? Dashing?
4. Kiss on the forehead. Because sometimes you have to brush their hair out of their faces, and that's cute.
5. Kiss on the lips. 1-2-3 KISS. This is the tame version of the next one.
6. Make-out for five minutes. That escalated quickly!

And a brand new Emp-centric option for this year:

7. Ship crystals! Some of the mistletoe this year is attached to large crystals, and "just a kiss" is not gonna help you here. No, these things want fluff. In addition to kisses, they want you to hold hands, and sit in a cute shop drinking a milkshake out of one glass with two straws, and give each other flowers, and all manner of other disgusting shippy things. And it will not let you separate until you have filled it with enough fluff drops to satisfy it*. Use a variety of different kisses to speed the process up and enjoy your temporary new significant other! Hopefully one or both of you is romantic enough to think of things to do. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

*You can move around and go on cute dates. It will float over your heads as you wander like a horrible crystal voyeur.

[Honestly, short of, like, young kids for 5 or 6, I'm down for whatever. Smooch the dorito.]

[ Wow, good morning to you, too, Kevin. Yesterday was a nice enough day that Shiro's even actually only just woken up shortly before this moment, rather than awaking early and staring at his ceiling until the appropriate time. So the response Kevin gets is a little bleary and confused. ]

Kevin? What is it?
justpastdusk: (THAT)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-01 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, oka--wait. What?

[ OK, now he's waking up. ]
justpastdusk: (It's right there!)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-02 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ Somewhat groggily and still dressed in the tank top and sweatpants that he uses as pajamas, Shiro exits his room into the general living area, far enough for more direct conversation with Kevin, but not quite so far as to get stuck with him, not yet. ]

Why didn't you call Bulat?
justpastdusk: (And I made a purple'd version)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-02 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well, this is all plenty suspicious, now, isn't it? Shiro peers at Kevin dubiously and does not get closer. ]

What are you doing?
justpastdusk: (how lazy you are?")

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-03 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ OK he doesn't doubt the technical truth of that, but that sure does not answer his question entirely. ]

And what important Christmas things do you need boots and the Red Mage for?

[ Have we not thoroughly established by this point that Santa Claus isn't some mysterious assassin who needs to be defended against??? ]
justpastdusk: (It was just a really easy edit to do.)

[1/2]

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-15 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ what

Does. Does Keith really still believe in Santa Claus? That can't possibly be right, can it? Shiro wracks his memory, but he can't recall ever talking about Santa with Keith before. Why would they? Shiro never even grew up believing in Santa in the first place.

It doesn't seem likely that Keith could get this far still believing in Santa, but Shiro can't say for sure that he doesn't, and if he really does, then Shiro can't dare risk that on the chance that Kevin is just fucking with him. So he grimaces and steps forward into Kevin's space. ]
justpastdusk: (Screwing with levels)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-15 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine.

[ Just because they're doing this doesn't mean he has to like it!!! Except that when he leans down to press his lips against Kevin's, sole hand hooked under his chin, there is a distinct amount of tenderness in the action. Because, look, if they're going to do this, obviously they have to do it right. ]

Well!

[ Bulat eyeballs the crystal. He's not sure what he thinks about these sparkly little stalkers. Can't two dudes enjoy some greenhousing in peace without being expected to cuddle for the entertainment of others, it's like Edea never left. ]

Might as well make the best of it, then. Shiro, what's your favorite flower?
justpastdusk: (All those keywords)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-01 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Why this. Why do these horrible embarrassing things always happen around Bulat, specifically? Any of the regular mistletoe wouldn't be great, either, but at least it would've been over quick. This is going to be extended. Maybe. Maybe Bulat won't be awful about this--no who is he kidding, it's Bulat, this is going to be some Extra bullshit and they both know it. ]

Uhhhh. Chrysanthemums, I guess.
steel_over_blood: (But who WAS phone??)

[personal profile] steel_over_blood 2018-12-01 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Standing for a long life, honesty and optimism - that doesn't speak well for compatibility.

[ Of course he knows this off the top of his head. He might be talking about Shiro and himself or his likelihood at conjuring up a bunch. Whatever he's thinking about now seems to be taking both time and concentration. ]
justpastdusk: (THAT)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-02 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[ Shiro just kind of stares at Bulat a little gobsmacked for a minute here because he's sorry, did you just say long life??? ]
steel_over_blood: (Maybe hes born with it)

[personal profile] steel_over_blood 2018-12-02 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ He snaps his fingers a few times, and gets zinnias. Fuck. ]

Ha, well - think of it as something to aspire to.
justpastdusk: (Probably more relaxing)

[personal profile] justpastdusk 2018-12-02 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Something to aspire to--god, he actually does have even odds for having a long life now, doesn't he? That's kind of wild to think about, since that hasn't been true for like. Five years.

He doesn't recognize the kind of flower Bulat manages to summon up, but he can tell they're not chrysanthemums, and he does not particularly want to stand here all day while Bulat figures it out. ]


...Roses are fine, too.

[ He knows for sure Bulat can make those. ]
steel_over_blood: (Obligatory roses)

[personal profile] steel_over_blood 2018-12-03 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, the flower of passion. That I can do!

[ The trick with roses is to not turn everything around into roses while he's at it. He sweeps his arm behind his back and comes back with a full on bouquet, holding together via some sort of sparkly magic. Almost two dozen white roses, a few pale purple in an off-center cluster. He passes it to Shiro with a flourish. ]
