✾ 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.

[Goddammit, all he ever wants is coffee and this house is cursed to never give it to him without a fight. He had just about gotten the stupid thing to produce hot water when Allura pointed out the offending plant and his irritation abruptly shut down the machine. Awesome.]

[He gives the plant a withering stare before he sighs.]

Looks like it.

[It's okay, Keith, she's giving the house an emergency coffee maker for Christmas, one that isn't fueled by happiness.]

Of course. Well... hopefully this one won't be too demanding. We might even be about to remove it so no one else gets caught.

[Keith is already climbing onto the counter to see if he can snatch it. It's just barely out of reach.]

Augh, come on!

[He says, losing his footing and toppling off the counter. Allura, you are all that stands between him and eating the kitchen floor for breakfast.]

[Thankfully Allura catches him easily by the shoulders (even if she stumbles a bit against the mistletoe's barrier) before setting him upright. There, now she's finally repaid her debt for the shuttle incident.]

Careful... The last thing we need is you getting a head injury and unable to get you to a healer... or worse, having Mister Kevin ending up trapped with us.

[Because what if it's a 5 or higher?!]

[If it's a 5 or higher that means no one is getting out of it with their dignity in tact. Keith shudders to think.]

It's too early in the morning for this. Did I at least get the note off it?

[Good news! He did, it's on the floor by Allura's feet. What terrible fate did the evil plant bequeath them?]

[Thankfully, Allura kept the paper in the corner of her eye as it fluttered down, and when she picks it up...]

Oh, thank goodness. Just a cheek kiss.
