Jingle Mingle...2
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.

this time he looks more tiredly bemused than ready to jump out the nearest window at least. he's got a warm sweater on- and you know what, sure. this may as well happen. ]
Is this to be a constant thing, then....?
[ catch the big lug lurking over the sweets, indecisive as always ]

Tonbokiri-san, what are you wearing...?
no subject
A sweater....?

[WHAT'S A LLAMA]

Hey, hey. This one, try this one. [It will take a struggle to rearrange her own bounty but she will tap her finger towards one covered in cream and strawberries.]
no subject
My thanks for the suggestion.
[ her own pile gets a side-eye, and maybe the hint of an amused smile before: ] Do you require assistance in return?
no subject
[She looks at her pile in her arms, then comedically across both sides of the table.]
I think I got a little bit of everything! But... um... plate... where are the rest of the plates. [She is too short and her arms are too full. One little lemon sugar cookie nearly falls out of her pile, but she scrambles with a quiet little exclamation to shove it into her mouth. Phew.]
no subject
[Revali has a festive sweater as well, tugging at the neck of it with annoyance]
If every time it will involve you being dragged into a celebration without even giving you a warning then I want nothing to do with it.
no subject
you know what, sure this isn't the strangest thing he's seen ]
It tends to happen regardless if we wish it or not. I suppose it's just easier to find company to experience it with.
no subject
[Nobody seems to be setting up a murdergame, he means. Not that Revali will drop his guard, though, he'll be keeping an eye out for any abnormalities the whole night]

no subject
Ah... When the others are involved I suppose. They tend to be very insistent of certain traditions.
no subject
[is that what happened]
It is a pleasant thing to be included in their merriment, no?
no subject
Is it? Could be worse! As far as unfortunate patterns of kidnappings go, that is.
[They sure all know it... Anyway, he will helpfully point toward a sweet that looks suspiciously bright red.]
Give that one a try!
no subject
I certainly wouldn't mind seeing everyone without any of the....... events that cause it.
[ wryly. anyway unfortunately for tonbos, he reaches for this sweet with nary a care. clearly, wei ying won't lead him astray after all this time, right? (ha) ]
no subject
I agree, I agree! Though I'd hope most of us would, hah. The festive atmosphere isn't so terrible without the cloud of dread hanging over everyone's heads and all.
[Why does Tonbo trust him though please help this sword. If he tries some, it won't be jalapeno flavored, at least! But it's definitely got some Zesty Kick thanks to a healthy(????) dose of cinnamon and cayenne mixed in with the chocolate. Delicious.]
no subject
without a word, he comes up to the yari and pushes a snowball cookie past his lips. hewwo. ]
no subject
anyway, hewwo dear. it's absolutely terrible how tonbo just absently noms this without blinking an eye. please stop being disgustingly married it's been two years.
that being said, in return he holds up his plate of various confections for nikkari to choose from. ]
