Some of you may be used to this by now. For some of you, this may be your very first time being swept away in a flurry of snowflakes. (Though some of you may have been particularly naughty and were shoved into a burlap sack before disappearing into the storm.) As usual, it seems as though the time for bloodshed has passed and when you open your eyes you're greeted with...
...a ski lodge.
Worry not! This isn't the lodge Krampus had taken residence in but it's a rather large and cozy getaway. You may even find that your clothes have changed into something holiday-appropriate for the occasion. It seems as though someone has gone around decking the halls with boughs of holly, lights strewn along the walls, Christmas trees in large corners, and plenty of food and drink to go around. (Yes, this includes alcohol. Please do try to be responsible though, hm?)
Similarly, some of you may recognize the frosty patterns that lightly dust the walls and surfaces and the usual staff and their assistants are back in action. Should you require anything, you may ask one of them and they'll be at your service!
The lodge has plenty of rooms filled with furniture, fireplaces, games and more. And for those of you feeling a little more adventurous, you may venture outdoors. To the left there's a sprawling garden with gazebos, firepits, flowers and lit topiary displays. To the right, you may follow the path down to a hot spring. And straight ahead? There's the path leading you right to a rental shack holding skis, snowboards and snow mobiles.
This almost seems...quaint, doesn't it? And perhaps it's a little too easy, but you should know by now everything comes with a price.
Sprigs of mistletoe are pinned up in every doorway once again, bright red bows and dustings of frost lingering around them. Don't try to escape to the outdoors to avoid it! Ice sculptures appear in every direction each decorated with the mystical plant. You could try to avoid it, really, but avoiding it too long will earn a chilly breath of air directly in your ear as you're pushed straight into the nearest person. Wouldn't you rather choose on your own?
Well! The choice is yours, and you might want to make it fast. There's no way out without paying the kiss tax, after all.

Why do I keep getting dragged into these things...? There's not even any music.

You're really stupid for that, you know? You should think about the people who care about you a little more.
[ hate that he immediately went for judgment ]
no subject
If I ain't doin' it then I ain't really myself anymore.
[But... If it's for Nero... Should he have changed?]
no subject
...It's good to see him fight for something, though.

Do you want me to ask if they've got a guitar?
[ as kazuki's designated top she'll take on this task ]
no subject
...No, it's fine. They'll just want me to play Christmas songs if you do.
no subject
You're telling me you don't wanna play a rock version of Last Christmas?

Honestly? I think they’re catchy.

shi qingxuan looks thoughtful for a moment or two (she is contemplating whether or not kazuki is old enough to drink and wondering if she ought to get him some wine), then tilts her head to one side.]
What sort of music would there normally be at this sort of thing?
no subject
It's a Christmas party, right? So they'd usually play Christmas music to fit the theme.
no subject
she's chinese so. she offers him some wine.]
...I'm afraid I don't know what Christmas is...
no subject
It's a holiday. You give gifts to your friends or go on dates... That kind of thing.
no subject
Oh! Well, that doesn't sound so bad. It certainly sounds better than the last... well, no, the first time I got whisked away somewhere.
no subject
Wait. This has happened more than once to you?
no subject
[...]
Ah, well. Once for an extended period of time, and then once a few months back for some sort of a... festival? But that was just for a short time, and no one died. I'm hoping this is like that.
