I wasn't screaming. I was pontificating! There is but a subtle difference.

[scooptimistic]

Yes, Boss... [ with a very theatrical sigh, but fine, she'll go dump half of it back.

Slavedriver. ]

[sylfied]

... You were screaming... eloquently.

[ Better?? ]

[skiouros]

[ Sounds like his middle name. ]

I'll roll out the sheet.

Sprinkle what you've collected afterward. If you like cinnamon, you can add that, too.

[ Knowing her, she might flatten the puff pastry into a weird shape . . . He cannot allow this. Deftly, he does his part before moving aside for Maya. ]

[spinatalltale]

[NO]

Well, anyway. All of that aside, are you really going to pass underneath that mistletoe like it's no big deal at all? That's so boring.

ngl, i was thinking really hard how to make this tag before just going with it :U

[trapofthewilds]

Ah! I see!

[ Hmm! Well then, while he munches onto the cookie and connecting the dots a bit here, he starts to think about this for a moment. Not that he's dumb, but its just there are certain things you have to experience to fully comprehend it!

And here they are with her coming to his rescue from preventing the potential consumption of poison, and still talking with him over cookies and said poison of all things. Oh, and now this tradition. Seems like the best way to break the ice is to shatter it completely head on! ]

Well then. Far be it from me from trying to break tradition then for something so harmless like that!

[ With a quick wipe of his mouth to take away any cookie crumbs off his lips and swallowing the last bit of whatever is in his mouth, he'll take the plunge right on in and pops in a kiss right on Laura's lips. Even if her mouth was still full, he's still gunning for it! Hey man, go big or go home! ]

gibe me cardia and 2

[ I CAN WRITE THE PROMPT IF YOU'D LIKE i'm just tired right now so i'm placeholdering this ]

let's say he and ann started hanging out after pockygate (cool with any prompt!)

[chromogenic]

[sylfied]

Why wouldn't I? I'm not interested in kissing anyone.

[scooptimistic]

[ Wow, he has no faith in her. She can at least make pastry look like elephant ears!!

But she's at least consciously trying to behave herself, so it really is just sprinkling this time. And cinnamon. A MERE SPRITZ OF CINNAMON. ]

oh my god

[arseid]

[ what--

WHAT

Laura is a person who practices things like decorum, composure, and very diplomatic answers, because this is what happens when you're nobility and not the kind that excels in being a snobbish asshole.

... But she can't say she looks very dignified when she's just barely managed to swallow her cookie bite and the rest of it ends up dropping on the floor. ]

Th-- there's usually some manner of preparation first!

[ did her voice squeak slightly at the end, YEP. ]

6!

[cakemyheart]

[ It's a rare magazine that lets their models dress comfortably for shoots, so Ann is extremely grateful for the fact that she gets very warm leggings and a thick, comfy jacket-- and also that she gets to take it home.

Because it means she gets to do winter shenanigans, and what's caught her eye has her reaching for Prompto's wrist to tug at it. ]

Ever been ice-skating before?

[jokered]

It's a little weird to just break tradition when the mistletoe is already there.

[shrug.]

But I don't think that needs a lecture, either.

welcome to super babylonia bros. laura :'D

[trapofthewilds]

[ There was an honest to god confusion on his face at her obvious surprised reaction and what was said. It WAS to be expected if this is a tradition, isn't it? Huh. How weird. Why do people gotta put rules about kissing people? That's just silly. ] Preparation, you say? So I didn't do it correctly then... that is a shame. Then what must be done if we are to do it right then? Have we not consumed enough food or joined the dancing festivities enough yet, perhaps? Or is it because someone's heart just wasn't into it, I wonder?

[arseid]

[ ... haaaaa. ]

Perhaps I should have clarified that it ends to be an agreement between two people...

[ or so she hopes. In her heart. ]

[alcobrawlic]

Oh, I see. You're trying to be smooth with your teacher because of a plant I happen to like the tradition of.

[discardia]

[ It's Christmas!! And Christmas is for loved ones and gift-giving, and Cardia had asked around (all of five people) in order to prepare the best Christmas she could offer Lupin.

Which is why when she approaches him, she's carrying an armful of packages and also has one giant velvet bow around her neck??

He can probably make an educated guess as to who came up with that last one. ]

Lupin...! Merry Christmas.

[spinatalltale]

Ugh, you totally don't have to be! In fact, it'd be even more comical if you turned down a potential suitor in that dry, disinterested tone of yours. The audience would eat it up!

[jokered]

It has nothing to do with you being my teacher.

[?]

It's just good customer service, isn't it?

[alcobrawlic]

Well, by now, I know you do take your jobs seriously.

[ ... sure. ]

[sylfied]

But that means I have to stand here and wait for someone to turn down.

[ when she could be napping?? ]

[spinatalltale]

[CONSIDERS. . .]

Oho. Fortunately for you? I think I have just the shill you need. ☆

[jokered]

Exactly. I can't leave a job unfinished.

[]

[trapofthewilds]

I suppose that is fair, although it still feels rather silly to put even more limitations for such a tradition. My apologies for not hearing your agreement, but as you can see, I'm rather open about such things. [ Or perhaps that's the eggnog talking. Its a pretty casual claim to make and only to just down that cup before placing it aside. ] Then again, you learn to be open about a lot of things when you have a second chance to live your life again. So now I can say kissing a beautiful young lady can be marked off my accomplishments! Although I could probably do better on finding a better drink to share with said beautiful young lady, to be honest. I've haven't even started to lose feeling in my finger tips and you can still taste the liquor in this. That's just honestly rude and literal bad taste.

[sylfied]

[ ... she's regretting. ]

Can I forget you said that and just go home?
