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.

I think they're probably not normal birds.

[an astute observation about these penguins who are somehow carrying serving trays around the room.]
modissty: (well okay)

None of the birds we've been spending time around lately seem to be.

[Staring off into the ether as he thinks about the geese.]

...But these ones are a good deal kinder.
heartlands: also kyuu who cropped these and saved my talentless self (pic#14961324)

I will easily take this over the geese.

[their haunted stares... but then he gives sakyou a smile!]

Anyways, are you hungry?
modissty: (at the dining table)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-12-12 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
I do believe that most of us would agree.

[Even people who didn't experience the geese would surely prefer these dapper little penguins! That said, he shakes his head and holds a polite hand up.]

Not particularly. I'm a little surprised that so many people seem to have kept their appetites, to be honest.

[math lady meme...]

Why, do you think it's poisoned or something?
modissty: (breaktime)

[personal profile] modissty 2021-12-12 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[STOP MATH LADYING. Sakyou just shakes his head, though. It's not that he doesn't think a mysterious kidnapper wouldn't poison them, so much as he figures they wouldn't go about killing a group of intrepid intergalactic murdergamers through such casual means.]

It's merely a comment on the robustness of the appetites here. I've never been one to eat well when concerned, personally, and I find it a bit difficult to relax.

[Said in a "I'm sure you understand" tone.]
