Jingle Mingle...2

[alittlefuninstead]

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.

[azuta]

Oh? You don't have a favorite...?

[overshaded]

Anything with meat.

[ If she had to choose. ]

Or anything with berries.

[ That's the nostalgic answer. ]

[azuta]

[that makes iris laugh]

I see, I'll keep that in mind. Hm....

[she'll look over the spread of dishes then - and reach out once she finds a slice of berry cheesecake]

Care to share this with me then? I think food tastes better when shared with others.

[overshaded]

[ She likes eating with other people. She doesn't usually like sharing what she eats with other people, but she will make an exception for Iris. ]

Let's go.

[ Because the cheesecake does look delectable.

And she also grabs a tart. ]

[azuta]

[kainé is truly the best

iris will happily bring kainé somewhere where they can sit down and share then. she'll get two forks to be polite, but after she has the first bite - she's polite but the nobility still jumps out - her eyes light up immediately

she immediately puts another bite on the fork and holds it out to kainé for her to take]

I think you'll love it!

[overshaded]

[ That's unexpected. This isn't a track she thought Iris would take, and it surprises so much that Kainé freezes.

And she blushes, suddenly too awkward to know how to respond. Or how to take the fork from Iris like a normal person. ]
