THE MISTLETOE MEME

It was a quiet moment in the imPort cities, 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 the cities!

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!

Like that'll do anything.

[Yup. That's compromise. A minute passes and the mistletoe hasn't felt so much as a breeze, no matter how much force he slams into the barrier.

A second minute passes and he has to put his hand to his head briefly before screaming at it wordlessly, thrashing out one last time.

The predictable outcome happens, leaving him panting and angry, but finally still.]

[she watches him with calculated indifference, apathy papered over her expression to keep any vague concern away from the surface. Hazel knows that it won't do anything, but she just wants to be sure he doesn't actually flame out in the attempt.

thankfully that doesn't happen, and she feels safe in giving a mock sigh and finally pushing herself off the edge of the doorway she's been leaning on.]

Well, time for me to give it a go.

[that's all the warning he's given - and does he really need more, since she's clearly stated her intentions and gotten no argument against them? in one swift motion, just in case Tetsuo decides to change his mind, she pulls him into a hug.

maybe it's emotionally awkward, but it's not shitty the way Hazel had made it seem like it would be. but no one's going to mention that.]
