[wherever this mystery Kia character may be, whatever they are doing this fine holiday season, they are totally walking underneath some mistletoe somewhere. and when they do, there is suddenly a very loud gasp]

Hark! Do my eyes deceive me? Has yet another poor, innocent soul fallen victim to the holiday's most phenomenally fiendish feint???

[soooo anyway, there's a girl dressed in pink and purple and a skirt of books standing nearby. hi]

Alas! They stand underneath the doorframe as the small sprig of shrubbery hangs above their head, like a countdown to their untimely doom! Will someone come join them underneath the mistletoe's gentle embrace? Or are they doomed to loneliness, to standing their awkwardly while their beloved never comes to rescue them from the clutches of holiday traditions!!

[. . . nice first impressions, tho. right?]

... Hi, Magilou. Bye, Magilou.

[ SHE'S JUST GOING TO TURN TO GO. ]

-- hey, Fie!! Don't leave me already, the party only just got started!

[SHE FEELS SO ABANDONED 8(]

You know when you say things like that, it only makes people want to run away, right?

[ SHE HAS TO KNOW THAT BY NOW. ]

[jabs a finger at Fie]

False! Impromptu performances in public spaces are all the rage these days. Who knows? I may have acquired a few new fans with that little number.

... [ she just pointedly glances around at all the people who are definitely avoiding eye-contact. ]

. . .

I suppose my kind of entertainment can only be enjoyed by those with true taste.

[she knows that isn't true JUST LET HER SAVE FACE, HERE]

Maybe you should try another town.

[ One very far away. ]

Let me at least build up my reputation in this one, first.

[then she can be a traveling minstrel]

You're going to build up a reputation as a crazy screamer, you know. One who troubles young ladies.

I am a young lady.

[AS THOUGH THAT DEBUNKS FIE'S ENTIRE POINT]

A crazy screaming young lady who troubles non-crazy young ladies.

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

... You were screaming... eloquently.

[ Better?? ]

[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.

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

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!
