mistletoe 2: mistletoe harder

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: Game Tower, to start
When: Day 187

[ It's snowing outside. . . ! So it's pretty cold. You know what's not cold, though? The Game Tower! It's nice and warm and you are definitely being yoinked out of wherever you currently are for a possibly familiar ~game~. Don't worry though: you don't have to stay.

Instead of the elevators opening, the rules just appear on your phone. There's hot cocoa provided in the lobby, though in limited quantity and all of them come with marshmallows. Mandatory marshmallows. If you don't like marshmallows, well, too bad!

Incidentally, there are also a bunch of green plants growing around . . . everywhere. Everywhere!! At the doorways, in the elevators, just hanging from the ceiling, growing parasitically on plants that aren't even mistletoe . . . !? Where did they come from!? They're all tied with a red ribbon too, to make them more easily visible and clearly part of the game. They're not restricted to the game tower, either - the only places mistletoe doesn't show up in are the unit dorms. ]

RULES | TURN-IN - due 12/26/19 @ 6PM PST

[ she's trimmed her scarf with mistletoe and she might have tapped you on the shoulder. especially if you're a pretty lady— ]

So, are you playing?

[notadrop]

If I haaaave to.

[marsascending]

Not a fan? I figured you'd get good mileage out of this.

[aragona]

Sure?

[marsascending]

Well then.

[ she puts a hand on Grace's shoulder and leans her face in close. ]

Are you angling to win?

[earthquaked]

'Course. If Wild City lost something this easy it'd be pretty embarrassing.

[marsascending]

Well, I'm always happy to help a charming lady out. Or, at least, in this very specific area, among others.

[time5kip]

I am.

Hugs are off the table and I'm either too young or too old for you, so it'll have to be a kiss on the cheek or hand.

[marsascending]

It's good to be up front with what you want. I have a rather particular type, anyway.

[ she rolls her wrist with a flourish, and extends her hand. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

You know it, dude.

[marsascending]

You're quite the social butterfly, it seems!

[firstworldproblem]

I doubt this game will win itself.

[Asking for her hand.]

[marsascending]

[ she extends it with a flourish. ]

Suppose it's a good way to make a case for people liking us.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Turning immediately--]

Of course I am!

[He has 0 problems with this game.]

[marsascending]

Well, aren't you excited!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Not a pretty lady, but she's definitely getting some applause off to the side here]

There's the holiday spirit.

[marsascending]

[ she takes a bow. ]

I aim to impress. Having a good time over there?

[nihilmancy]

I, um. Y-Yes.

[marsascending]

Are you favoring quantity or quality?

[onetrippony]

I am, it's pretty harmless, isn't it?

[marsascending]

An exciting way to get to know people a little bit better, too.

[tradesecret]

Of course I am~

[marsascending]

[ wink~* ]

Well, I think we can put in a pretty good showing for this one, at least.

[claestrophe]

I don't know. The rules for this are pretty strange....

[marsascending]

Oh? What do you find strange about them?

Though you have a sort of... intent look to you, all the same, that I think will serve you well.
