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.

Should I be chasing him romantically? Usually I just stand near him and he notices me.

[The fuck even is romance?]

I suppose it can keep things lively...

[no, iris is just literally so hard to get that everything that involves her is a chase.

but - ]


But I think the two of you have something already perfectly figured out.

[Someday someone will chase her down and hold her hand and tell her everything will be alright. Someday.]

Mmm, we do. He understands me.

[He says this like it is significant. Because it is, to him.]

And I'm getting better at understanding him.
azuta: (ღ the shoes on my feet)

[so many people have done this it's just getting her to believe it]

Then that sounds like all the necessities of a worthwhile engagement to me... As long as you two are happy with each other, my heart can be at ease.

Engagement?

[There is a long pause, and Lalli looks at Iris, confused.]

But...I didn't even give him a ring yet.

[Oh no is he disappointing her by not getting married?]
azuta: (ღ i can't spend it)

[personal profile] azuta 2021-12-15 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[a beat]

Oh!

[ - though her surprise melts easily into laughter, and she shakes her head as she gives lalli an affectionate pat on the arm]

That is not what I meant... Only that I meant it a worthwhile use of your time, to spend it with someone who understands and cares for you.

Take things at your pace, and you will always have my blessing.

[she's the last person to expect literally anyone to get married]
