•Mistletoe Meme!•

The Situation:
Crew members who were on Stacy last December remember this. Because GLaDOS is a troll, she has positioned little sprigs of mistletoe on the ceilings of areas of the ship. In hallways, at the entrances to quarters, in a department doorway, at a tavern, she doesn't care how inconvenient it is!

It'd be less inconvenient if it were voluntary, but in this case, the sneaky AI has deployed shields around people who wander under the mistletoe that have not been broken by any known alternate method so far. Any attacks against the shield are absorbed. Attempts at attacking the mistletoe get you singed. The only way to be freed from the confines of your little bubble is to receive some form of affection from another crew member---a strong hug will work for the really uncomfortable, but at least a cheek kiss is expected for most. If GLaDOS wants a mouth kiss, though, let her push for one! Species equivalents of kisses/affection are also acceptable.

So---you're stuck until someone comes to rescue you with a kiss, kids. Have fun, thank you for participating in this crew study experiment, and watch out for the nargles!

((Characters not in the game are of course welcome to join too! It's just on this community this year because it's proven difficult to fit the event around December's plots.))

[She's going to stand quietly now, not quite sure of what to say or do right now.]

[jesus_is_gundam]

[...he thinks he's come to a conclusion, but there's no way that could be right.]

Feldt... do you want to...?

[He glanced up at the plant, then back at her.]

[pinkbridgebunny.livejournal.com]

[She nods once. Yes, she does want to kiss you, Setsuna.]

[jesus_is_gundam]

Oh...

[And now he's really confused. Yes, he's that girl-tarded.]

But... I'm not Lockon.

I came to realize Lockon was more like an older brother to me.

[She's resisting the urge to facepalm a bit, Setsuna.]

[a_mere_human]

Ah.

[Okay. So... hn.]

Okay.

[Now he just has to figure out how to do this "kissing" thing.]

[pinkbridgebunny.livejournal.com]

[She might as well make the first move. She's still rather nervous as she moves closer to him and then presses her lips against his.]

[a_mere_human]

[Oh! Well, he wasn't expecting that (though, in hindsight, he probably should have), but he didn't pull away. In fact, he did start kissing her back. It was a little awkward at first, but he was getting the hang of it, and still found the whole process 10000x more pleasant than the time Nena Trinity tried to shove her tongue down his throat.]

[Nena can DIAF. Wait, she did didn't she? Anyway! She pulls away after a moment and looks away, her face bright red.]

[a_mere_human]

[He blinked a few times when it was over, and, yes, even his girl-tarded brain finally understood.]

Feldt?

[pinkbridgebunny.livejournal.com]

Yes?

[a_mere_human]

[He was about to say something, but thought better of it. Instead, he decided to pull her in for a kiss (yes, he who normally avoided physical contact was seeking it out, that's how much he likes you, Feldt). And he likely wouldn't be letting her go for a little while.]

[That gets a small (but cute) squeak out of her. Still, she doesn't pull away. She actually likes this.]
