Mistletoe Meme

[godofthemachine]

Huh... There's a mistletoe right above you... That's weird, it's Decemb-- oh wait. December is the perfect time to get stuck under the mistletoe with someone. 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).

Let's start off December with a little holiday cheer!

RULES:
»POST with your character.
»SPECIFY Prefs, if any.

This was lovingly stolen from bakerstreet and I feel like AX needs to celebrate the holidays too.

I don't feel particularly paralyzed.

[ apart from how he can't move his feet. ]

[backwardscompatible]

I don't know about you, but my feet are being decidedly uncooperative right now.

[king]

[ he crosses his arms. ]

All right, a part of me is paralyzed.

[backwardscompatible]

It is rather well targeted, isn't it.

[king]

You're absolutely incorrigible.

[backwardscompatible]

I have no idea what you mean. [ Yes she does. ]

Would you mind if I tested a theory about how to free ourselves?

[king]

Go right ahead.

[ he raises an eyebrow at her, interested to see just what trick she has up her sleeve. ]

[backwardscompatible]

[ She leans in to kiss him, just a quick press of lips to his. ]

[king]

[ arthur's too stunned to do anything but let it happen, and even after it's done his eyebrows just creep higher. and then he goes all flustered. ]

I don't really. See how that could possibly. Er.

[ She figured that something this specific was probably engineered, and if you're going to engineer mistletoe to catch pairs of people under it then you probably have a particular goal in mind for them. But telling Arthur that wouldn't be any fun.

Instead, she winks at him.]

If it worked, we're free to go, and if it didn't work, I can say I've kissed King Arthur of Camelot.

[king]

[ faintly, ]

Prince.

[ but he takes a step back, and another, and gives her a sort of grudging well-done-you kind of look. ]

Kiss to break the spell. Even I know that's a classic.

[backwardscompatible]

A little exaggeration never hurt anyone. But this isn't a spell, just something engineered to act like one.

[king]

All right, keep telling yourself that.

[backwardscompatible]

Given the time I could probably replicate it.
