Who: you!
Where: game tower => park => home, somewhere in this quadrant of the city
When: Day 71, evening

[ i said i wasn't posting an overflow and then you guys got to 2k already anyway

for those who pass by the Game Tower, your phones will blip with the instructions to the game. It looks like even if you didn't actually come in for the beginning, you can still participate. . . !

The hot chocolate is gone, though. It's still snowing outside too. Well, maybe there could be hot chocolate in the kitchen - ! If you make it, that is - both in the sense of heating up the chocolate yourself as well as in the sense, of, well. There are at least a bazillion mistletoes in your way and we have at least two kissing demons here, so. . . Fight hard. ]

[Makes a face.]

Sorry, dude, gonna have to be nerd team. All the robot-making gear in the points shop kinda sucks.

Maybe you just have to kiss the robots, then. Pinocchio 'em to life.

[is that how pinocchio works]

Don't I need a fairy for that?

Just need to be pure of heart. The true fairy was inside you all along.

The true fairy better start paying rent.

You just gotta kick ‘em out into the robots! Then they’ll have plenty of space.

And plenty of robots to smooch. All hail our fairy hero.

Happy ending for everyone. Go get it started!

Who says I didn't already?

...I haven't seen any robots in a while. Are you saying they're all off pining?

It was super effective. They eloped.

You singlehandedly bring your team to victory with a single smooch, nice work.

Right? Guess they didn't get the memo, though. All this mistletoe's everywhere, game must still be on.

Anyway... you, uh. You playing?

Since when'd we ever have a choice with these things? You need someone to beat off overenthusiastic suitors or something?

Nah. Lucky me, looks like I'm not the kinda guy people line up with roses for.

Just wondering if you wanted to do the thing with the mistletoe or whatever.

Maybe you just gotta tell 'em you're on the rose market.

[but to the offer, she shrugs, casual]

Sure, may as well.

...Uh, I mean, if you want. No pressure.

Dude, c'mon. I wouldn't have asked if I didn't wanna.

Is, uh - is that okay? If it's weird or something...

It's only weird if you don't wanna do it. But if you wanna give it a go, then why not?

Okay. Okay, cool.

So like. How're we gonna do this?

[Is he blushing a little? He is blushing a little.]

Probably at least one mouth will be involved.

[Her cheeks are similarly dark]

...Uh, I mean, what do you want--what sounds good to you?

[The blush sure is worse now.]

I dunno, I guess, uh - anything's good?

It was your idea, so you gotta have something in mind. I mean, what've you been doing with everybody else? I can't imagine people wouldn't be lining up for cute smooches.

I was kinda thinking, like -

You mind if I like -

[Steps in a bit closer, kind of awkward??]

[Also comes in closer, mirroring him. However, rather than awkward, she seems curious but game. She doesn't say anything to egg him on, but does raise her eyebrows, what next]

[Lifts a hand, hesitant, and reaches out to touch the side of her face.]

[He starts to lean in - balks and pulls back a little - then rallies and presses a quick, soft kiss to her lips.]
