Mistletoe Meme

 

Huh... There's a mistletoe right above you... That's weird, it's Decemb-- oh wait it isn't December in-game, but still! And look! There's a someone else stuck with you under there right now! And, of course, you both can't move until you kiss one another (Of course, not specifying where that kiss needs to happen).

RULES:
»POST with your character and their canon.
»SPECIFY Prefs, if any.
»TAG all the people!

»if you'd really rather avoid the kiss, fee free to replace "kiss" with "tell a secret"!

[Oh. Naki spoke.]

Not on it's own. Somebody had to have placed it up there.

[And how it was able to stay alive was completely beyond him.]

DDD:

[yaayaa]

Tsuru-san?

[For who placed it there, he means. Still staring...Naki made another attempt to leave the spot, but to no avail. It was like his feet were stuck? Only there was definitely nothing on the ground, he was pretty sure.]

Maybe we can find information on this through the cerevice? Or call someone to assist us, somehow.

:O

[dishevelment]

I'm not sure, to tell the truth.

[In answer to both questions. Koumei was well out of his depth in this regard-- he did not understand a thing about why people would hang mistletoe up on the ceiling like that.]

...Do you know someone who could help? I don't have too many contacts in this city yet who could answer us.

[yaayaa]

Well...

[The fox isn't sure, but Naki pulls out his cerevice anyway. They still have the internet!

.....Though now that he thinks about it, he can't look it up if he has no idea what it is.]

Ah. Do you know what sort of plant this is, at least?

[dishevelment]

[Ah, the internet! The mysterious archive that contained more information than he could read through in ten lifetimes was still a little too strange-- a little too magical-- for him to even dare touching.

But, who was he to stop another?]

It's mistletoe. I think. Or, holly-- honestly, I've never seen either with white berries before.

[yaayaa]

[Slowly typing in mistletoe...looking at the results.....

"Mistletoe is the common name for most obligate hemiparasitic--"

........Handing the results to Koumei instead.]

[dishevelment]

[--Koumei was just as lost at "obligate hemiparasitic--"]

...For all of these advancements in information and technology, couldn't they have found a way to make the information more easily understood?

[He warily scrolled down the page, gingerly touching the screen with a finger as if he were waiting for the device to explode in his hands. The results, on a digitized document entitled 'BioPedia', were needlessly long winded.

Wasn't there a concise definition for people who didn't have the time to wade through paragraphs as deep as a flooded ravine?]

[yaayaa]

[Somewhere far down on that page is a mention of traditions and kissing and stuff. It's a thing!

Meanwhile Naki's just gonna watch him and hope for answers.]

I suppose they want to be thorough with their answers...?
