☆ OPEN MISTLETOE POST 2020

Huh... There's a mistletoe right above you... Tis the season-- almost. And it looks like you got stuck right under that mistletoe with someone else. And you both can't move until you kiss one another (Of course, not specifying where that kiss needs to happen).

SFW and NSFW options are OK for age appropriate characters!

Anyway, your options to call out are:

If you'd like a different character that isn't these, ask away! No guarantees, though.

i am calling you out sonozaki mion

[keichan]

[ Why is there a sprig of mistletoe hanging from the awning of the water wheel? Who put it there? Nobody knows, nipa~ ☆

But given that today, a brisk but thankfully not freezing winter day, Keiichi is uncharacteristically early (Rena knew ahead of time that she wasn't going to be in school today, and his mom had encouraged him to wake up early), it's Keiichi waiting for Mion beneath that awning with his hands tucked in his cost pockets, completely unaware of the mistletoe hanging a good couple of feet above his head. ]

There you are! Took you long enough.

[ Not really. He knows this is Mion's normal time, he just wants to be the one to give her a hard time for once. ]

Re: i am calling you out sonozaki mion

[sononizaki]

Ahaha~! Sorry about that, Kei-chan!

[She laughs a little bit heartily, a large grin playing across her features before she finally notices and stops a few steps away from him, putting enough distance between her and him.]

... But, um, Kei-chan...?

[keichan]

Huh? What is it, Mion?

[ He gives her a quizzical look, wondering what could have caught her attention. They have some time to kill. She usually has to wait a couple of minutes for him and Rena anyway. ]

[sononizaki]

... There's something hanging above you.

[And she'll just casually point out the mistletoe just for Keiichi.]

[keichan]

[ He looks up, expecting to see a bird or something. Instead, however, there's a little bit of mistletoe hanging above his head. ]

...Eeeeeeeh? W-Who put that there?!?

[sononizaki]

I-I don't know...! I just saw it there when I walked by —

[She flusters slightly as she still continues to keep her distance for a good moment.]

A-A-Anyway, Kei-chan, [Let's just. She just takes a few steps forward, trying to grab Kei-chan by the hand.] we should get going. Right?

[keichan]

[ Mion tries to grab him, but when Keiichi tries to move, he finds that he can't. Not that something is keeping him frozen in place, but that his own thoughts are starting to become very distracting.

His eyes flit down to Mion's, and his mouth slowly opens slightly, causing him to lean in. ]

...We're still a little early, aren't we, Mion?

let's get witchy, dona

[privatenoeyes]

[With the holidays in full swing, Kojirou figured that it'd be best to get in the Christmas spirit. While putting up decorations could be a pain, he figured it'd make the place look good for any customers that walked in for cases. He takes a second to look over the office to make sure that everything was out of the box. A certain witch that he was letting hang around here was mysteriously gone... Well, Kojirou knew that she had a habit of coming and going whenever she pleased.]

Let's see... The little tree is set up, got the stockings around, the Christmas reef is at the door and the tinsel is lacing around the desk. And then, the mistletoe is set up--

[Hold on a moment. Kojirou looks up to find the mistletoe hanging up in the doorway. He doesn't remember having that in his box of decorations at all.]

Hold on... When the hell did that get there?! I don't remember putting that up!

[naturalgreed]

That's because I was the one who put it up.

[He'll hear the voice come out of almost scenic nowhere, but if he turns around from where he's standing, he'll notice that Echidna is there and - surprise, surprise, she's not in her usual black dress for once; instead, she dons on a surprisingly cute dress that fits the season.]

[privatenoeyes]

Lucky me. I get a chance to meet one of Santa's little helpers.

[Kojirou takes a moment to gawk at what Echidna was wearing. Just... damn. It was a mixture of cute and sexy... That really suited who she was quite well. And yet, he couldn't help and wonder if she was up something. There was also the third factor about her: Danger.]

That's a pretty good look for you. Though I wonder if there's something else you want asides giving me some eyecandy.

[naturalgreed]

If I was Santa's little helper, I would be the Witch of Generosity, not greed.

[Echidna doesn't dare to hide the mischievous smile that plays upon her features, giggling a little at the compliment that Kojirou gives her.]

Why, I appreciate the compliment. An innocent maiden such as myself is quite pleased that you'd say it suits me. I wasn't quite sure, after all. These customs are quite new to someone such as myself. But I tried my best to do the research. But there isn't anything that I want. I just wished to observe your reaction to the mistletoe.

[privatenoeyes]

My reaction? Last time I checked, it's just a plant that people use for festivities. It can't hurt you. If you're an animal, then that's a different ball game.

[Then again, Kojirou's mind was going full swing on the possibilities on what Echidna could've done to the plant. Lacing it with drugs was his first guess. But she might've not been savvy with the drugs from this era... But suddenly, he was feeling a little hot and his head was getting hazy. That was making it harder for him to concentrate on his theorizing. Swallowing a bit, Kojirou stumbles back and puts his hand on a table to secure himself. A suspicious eye stares her down through his long bangs of hair.]

Hey... Is it getting warm in here? You didn't mess with the air conditioning, did you?

[naturalgreed]

Oh? This sort of thing can hurt animals? That's quite the news to me.

[There's a teasing lilt in the way she says those words, her smile never fading even if his suspicions might be at an all time high.]

But I did not mess with the air conditioning, no.

[privatenoeyes]

But you did do something! I can see it on your face, woman!

[He says this like that isn't her default expression! This was more of his detective's intuition sensing something off. And there were conflicting feelings welling up within him. He's not sure if he wanted to kiss her or punch her right now.

Plus he's starting to swallow hard as his mouth felt dry. Why is he so thirsty?! There was a water bottle on the table that Kojirou opens up and tries to drink down... But no, this wasn't quenching this thirst at all. He was starting to wonder if he was getting sick as there was sweat starting to leak from his forehead.]

Ugh... Thirsty... C... Come a little closer, Dona. If you don't, then I'll approach you myself.

you know

[selfsacrificial]

[The holidays are always something of a busy time. Rather than everyone relaxing, it felt like they all went into overdrive. But it left the campus filled with a bright and festive atmosphere-- literally, with decorations adorning each and every room and hallway. Bows and candles and lights... and lots and lots of healthy greenery.

Rean had decided to use the campus' second floor sitting area to finish up some reading for his studies. It's only once he finished that he really stopped to take a good look at it all. The student council had to have put countless hours into preparing all this. It was pretty incredible, he had to admit.]

It feels like there are more plants this year. Some of them I don't even recognize.

i do

[dereban]

Sounds like perhaps the gardening clubs probably went all out this year with the holiday spirit. [Inaba can't help but smile a little, though in spite of herself; she wasn't usually much of a holiday person, but... she wanted to try getting into the spirit. It'd be easier to change herself that way, she thinks. And she does want to change.] They're nice though, aren't they?

shion + please help him

[headpatted]

Oh, I've never seen decorations like these before. Are they white... no, green?

[ Honestly, he really can't tell. If Satoshi weren't colorblind, maybe he wouldn't have approached the little dangling mistletoe on his own, standing beneath it as he struggles to identify what exactly it is. He's experiencing the same amount of confusion as when he's sent shopping for groceries.

Hmm... It does look a bit familiar... ]

Shion? [ Satoshi turns to her, completely oblivious. ] Did you hang these up? I can't tell what they are...

[promisedyou]

Is this your first time seeing this sort of thing, Satoshi-kun?

[She sounds vaguely interested that he doesn't seem to know what it exactly is.]

And I did! It's a Christmas tradition, after all. ☆

[headpatted]

Yeah. I've never been to a Christmas party before, so things like this are new to me.

[ Most of his holiday experiences were with Satoko—dressing up as santa, giving her gifts, and generally trying his best to make sure she was happy. ]

There sure are a lot of them up... What's the tradition, Shion? Something fun?

u know who this is for... I don't know if he would've been here this long but it's for the Meme

[futurebullets]

[it feels like not long at all since Hinata ended up here in Rin's world, staying with her as they didn't just resolve the events of her past, but took them in a new direction altogether. but in fact, it's been well over ten months by now, and while they still haven't figured out all of the hows and whys of their situation, something in Hinata's heart is... content.

it's well past the point that living with her has started to feel normal, if flustering at times, so it feels perfectly natural to start decorating the house in preparation for Christmas when she's out one day. although the box he found the decorations in seemed rather dusty... it should still be fine, right?]

Y-You've gotta be kidding... [he tries once more to move and- nope, that sure isn't working, is it?] Am I seriously stuck here?!

[hi, his name is Hinata Hajime, and he is full of regret.

Why the hell does she have some kind of cursed mistletoe in her house?!!]

so apparently i thought i had toplevel notifs on for this post. apparently i did not.

[tsunderine]

What's going on—

[Rin feels like that one Community gif, walking with pizza while everything is on fire in the background. That is, if she knew memes and the fire was real, not proverbial. So when she sees him stuck under the mistletoe, she immediately understands everything.]

I see you found it...

[One of the many cursed objects in this house.]

asdfghjkl; it's okay I just thought you were busy :'D

[futurebullets]

Rin, you- You don't even sound surprised! [it's less anger that coats Hinata's voice than baffled confusion with a healthy dose of frustration. maybe a bit of relief at seeing her, but that requires more honesty about his feelings than he can give at this particular moment. please try again later.] Why is something like this in the house?! And how do we undo it...?! [Hinata isn't... stuck here permanently or something, is he???? he is never tidying or decorating in here again, ever, what an unspeakable nightmare.]

[tsunderine]

Don't ask me that, it isn't as if I was the one who put that there.

[Rin crosses her arms over her chest, letting out a rather deep sigh of exasperation.]

You'll find plenty of weird things in the house, Hinata-kun. That thing is just the tip of the iceberg.

[Don't get her started about Ruby.]

It's pretty easy to get you unstuck from it, but...

[futurebullets]

[hearing her talk unwinds a little bit of the tension from his shoulders, and Hinata's a little bit calmer as he speaks with her.] I had a feeling you didn't, but I'm surprised you never threw it out... [it does still beg the question of who put it there... was it her family??? that's so irresponsible. he can still move his arms, at least, so he uses that freedom of movement to pinch the bridge of his nose.] Although... Maybe even touching this thing is enough of a hazard, even if it's to throw it away. It's worrying to think there's anything else like this in here... [you don't know the half of it Hinata] ...but if it's easy to undo it, I'll do whatever I have to. For something like this, I was honestly expecting the worst.

[tsunderine]

Don't worry, touching it isn't going to make it do anything worse than it already is.

[She sounds rather emotionally exhausted to the point of frustration, although thankfully for all parties involved, they're the only ones in the estate.]

But you should watch your words, Hinata-kun. Just because I said it was 'easy' didn't mean it's something that everyone would want to do with a random person. Anyway - I suppose I should start off with a question: are you aware of what most people would do under the mistletoe?
