a mistletoe (destruction) meme

The Mistletoe Meme

It was a quiet moment in Heropa, FL, when the next devious plot of an unknown organization was realized. With the holiday season upon all the town, bundles of mistletoe with interference technology hidden in the festive bows and pins holding them together was distributed throughout the town and into all the residences of the imPorts.

The interference technology creates a stasis field keeping imPorts trapped underneath it, protecting the mistletoe itself with a small barrier. However, it only seems able to hold two people at a time, and and the reaction of the nanites to sudden changes in chemistry brought on by embracing or kissing brings the stasis field crashing down, leaving the mistletoe vulnerable to destruction at that time.

It's up to you, imPorts, to break free of these mistletoe traps and destroy all the mistletoe in Heropa!

• Comment to the meme with your character(s). Specify if your character is open to kisses, hugs, or both!
  
• Comment around to other characters, getting trapped in the mistletoe's radius! Or hunting the mistletoe down. Either way, bring on the hugs and/or kisses!
  
• Have some light, silly, holiday fun!

HAHAH yeah to be honest it's basically point to a not awkward teenager around here and in all canons

[ She immediately is looking up IS ANY MORE OF THAT SHIT AROUND... and when none immediately makes itself known, she relaxes a fraction, taking two steps back and breathing out an audible sigh of relief. ]

It's everywhere. Be on the lookout. I don't know what the purpose behind this attack is, but it's aimed at imPorts, and it doesn't appear to be filmed or meant for... that kind of showing.

[he frowns down at the remains of the mistletoe before letting it fall onto the ground. even though the threat is apparently over with, he still moves a little to the side of the doorway before replying. just in case.]

That's strange. Is it really an attack when it doesn't appear to do much in the way of harm?

[beyond, like, destroying people's dignity he supposes. Jonathan has a high tolerance for bullshit.]

[lyingheart]

Imagine who you're immobilizing and slowing down for how long, when you can't neutralize the threat without massive property damage or engaging it willfully.

[ no she's... she's actually thinking about how... this would fuck them over for certain um. crisis. responses.

dignity can go die in the face of that, but the slow down and the fracturing of communication is enough to get people killed THIS IS HOW HER PARANOIA IS JONATHAN ]

It's more than long enough to pick off who you can, especially if there's a way to manipulate these fields from the outside, or overcome the flaw.

[ THIS. IS. MISTLEWAR? She doesn't sound at all hysterical over this - her whole delivery is matter of fact and musing, letting go of the irritation as she actually looks at logistics. Things don't need to be large to be capable of taking people out, one by one. Look at her. (Ha.) ]

[fistofthejoestar]

Has any of that happened yet?

[it's concerning, certainly, but Jonathan knows that just because something is possible doesn't mean it's likely to occur. it's better to get a handle on the situation rather than spiral off into paranoia-fueled wariness.]

[lyingheart]

[ she looks up sideways at him, giving a small shake of her head. of course not.

because it's a holiday meme!!!

but at the same time, she lives on that kind of edge because of her life circumstances. if it turns out to just be a stupid joke? she'll be happy. it's not that she's attached to any other feeling, just that she walks on that side to save whatever it is she does of her expectations. ]

No.

[fistofthejoestar]

Then perhaps we'll be lucky enough for it to remain that way.

[maybe for once it's just a joke? in polar opposition to Annie, Jonathan is impossibly optimistic despite his own life. hope for the best, suffer through the worst regardless.]

[lyingheart]

I hope so.

[ It's okay, even polar opposites, they both get kicked out of the picture pretty damn young. NO ONE WINS, EVERYONE LOSES, a life story. ]

Stay as clear of it as you can, Jonathan.

[WHO ACTUALLY WANTED THAT HAPPINESS ANYWAY, the crossover anime hitting the big screen in 2015.]

I'll be certain to do my best; somehow I doubt everyone will be as understanding as you are. Be watchful yourself, too!

but she nods her head and turns to... carefully... make her way off, looking upward and being very suspicious of any and all decor. ]
