It's the most wonderful tiiiiime of the year. For mistletoe!

[ceded]

Oh no, mistletoe!

 

SHOOT. Who put that there?! Well, you’re caught - pucker up!

How to Play

1. Post your character and canon in the subject line
2. Next person who responds is the one you’re caught under the mistletoe with!
3. Go as awkward, sweet, or embarrassing as you like! (Quick cheek peck? Full French? Sure! But you have to kiss or the Nargles will get you!)
4. Comment, Tag, and catch others under the mistletoe. Have fun!

Lamont Toucey | Hanna is Not a Boy's Name

[chiabrows]

[ALL THE KISSES]

Can you stand the hand-kiss of a king, Lamont

[untilavalon]

[Saber, too, is one who has never really had the chance to encounter these traditions. She knows vaguely of them, but certainly isn't looking for them. Instead, she's attempting to further Waver's friend-making advice by approaching people she knows!!]

--Mr. Toucey! Good evening.

he is not prepared

[chiabrows]

[On the other hand, Lamont's a little more opportunistic in regards to the mistletoe. Not only has he been looking for it, but he's scouted out a particular sprig to keep an eye on, in case anyone... interesting passes underneath. Not that he thinks he needs to rely on a silly holiday tradition to get a kiss, but what better icebreaker?

Little does the dumbass realize that, in his wandering the area around his target mistletoe, he's walked right underneath another of the plants.

He turns with a smile at the sound of the familiar voice, pleasantly surprised to see Arturia out and about.]

Good evening, Mi-- uh... [Yeah, he's still at a loss for how to address her.] --King Saber! [We'll go with that.] It's good to see you.

no one ever is

[untilavalon]

[A nod, and Saber seems amused.]

'Saber' is quite alright on its own. And it's good to see you as well. You seem to be in high spirits.

[chiabrows]

[He chuckles bashfully, head ducking slightly as he glances to the side.]

Saber, then. [And he shakes his head.] Just enjoying the party. What about you, having a good time?

[untilavalon]

I am. It's nice to have a bit of peace-- even if it isn't so quiet.

[She chuckles as well, shrugging her shoulders and taking a quick look around.]

If anything, everyone seems to be in a good mood. [It's a welcome change.]

[chiabrows]

[He nods and takes a drink from the glass in his hand, glancing around the room as well.]

Between the downtime and the eggnog, I'm not sure anybody could be in a bad mood.

[Unless you're Conrad and "bad mood" is your natural state of being.]

TSUNDEREING BEGINS

[gordianknots]

[Waver's been sitting and reading for a bit. He does, however, look up over at Lamont and smile when he sees him.]

Hey.

I AM MORE EXCITED THAN I SHOULD BE

[chiabrows]

[Sitting and reading at a social gathering. Only you, Waver.

Nevertheless, Lamont is quite glad to see him, and he crosses the room to greet his friend, chuckling to himself when he spots the book.]

Good read?

I MEAN WAVER JUST GOT FULL ON SNOGGED BY JASON UP POST SO.

[gordianknots]

Terrible, actually, I've been writing commentary in the margins the entire time.

[And lest Lamont doubts him, Waver turns the book in question around to reveal marginalia, including such very insightful comments as too silly.]

I SAW THAT i just want everyone to smooch waver okay

[chiabrows]

[Lamont bends down slightly to take a look at the pages offered to him, an eyebrow raised, and said insightful comments earn a snrk.]

At least it's laughably bad.

and i just want waver to go WAIT WHAT NOW so everyone wins in this plan

[gordianknots]

It is, and at least it's entertaining.

[The book's page gets dog eared, and then shut.]

Careful where you step by the way. There's mistletoe everywhere.

[chiabrows]

[He straightens up again, his smile broadening slightly.]

I've noticed.

[Oh boy, has he noticed. In fact, he's been staking out a couple of the hanging sprigs in case anyone cute passes under them. He likes kissing pretty girls, so sue him. Though he's terribly amused by the reason he assumes Waver feels the need to warn him:]

You get caught yet?

[gordianknots]

[Waver takes a beat, offering Lamont his best impersonation of Grumpy Cat, before it fades away in an amused snort of confirmation.]

Yeah, several times.

[chiabrows]

[It takes Lamont quite a bit of effort to stifle the laugh that tries to escape him.]

S-- Several?

[What a great mental image.]

[gordianknots]

I was as surprised as you are, actually.

[chiabrows]

So, who was it?

[Ladies and gentlemen, Lamont, the gossiping schoolgirl.]

[gordianknots]

How old are you, exactly?

[Is Waver serious or is he kidding? We just don't know.]

[chiabrows]

Going on thirty-three. [A chuckle.] You don't have to tell me, I was just curious.

[gordianknots]

It was mostly a joke, but good to know. The fact I don't think Mr Todd is older than my graduate students made that an interesting kiss.

i shouldn't be allowed to be a mun

[chiabrows]

[He teasingly arches a brow.]

What's wrong with a little student-teacher action?

neither should i (but also brb bed)

[gordianknots]

[Lamont, Waver really hopes you're joking.]

Personal ethics and an abuse of power? I mean, technically he's not a student, but.

And now that I've shared one, its only fair for you to do the same.

[chiabrows]

[He's joking. Mostly.]

Mine's no where near as exciting as yours.

[gordianknots]

All the same, share.

[chiabrows]

Well, uh... [Sheepish chuckle.] I got caught with Saber, of all people.
