Mistletoe journal post

[the_ex_in_excessive]

Okay so since I think I've failed to comment to every mistletoe this month barring the very first one let's play it safe and do The Latest Mistletoe Journal Post Ever for Kodachi Kuno, Ty Lee, and Roxie Richter for... like maybe the one or two people who have any interest in that :|b

Specify who you want in the subject title unless it's like super-obvious (hi Ramona).

[rolls her eyes and reaches up to check the bottom branch, flicking a popsicle stick snowflake]

But you didn't deny the adorable part.

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

I didn't think that was the most important thing to argue about. And they're not.

[the_ex_in_xp]

Yeah, you had to defend your ornament free lifestyle. Really important.

[lifts herself up and keeps rifling through the tree: nutcrackers, something made out of glass, tinsel, paper snowmen, an unfinished glazed donut, some weird fake mistletoe...]

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

That's not -- is that a donut? Who the fuck puts a donut in a tree?

[the_ex_in_xp]

Somebody who likes to improvise?

[pulls it down and waves it in front of Roxie] Had breakfast yet?

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

Get that thing out of my face.

[the_ex_in_xp]

I'll take that as a "yes."

[tosses it back in the tree and lowers herself back down]

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

Even if I hadn't I'm not eating a tree donut.

[taking a step back so you don't lower yourself down on her head]

[the_ex_in_xp]

[still landing within personal space boundaries though, so enjoy that]

So picky. This is why I never went camping with you.

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

I'd like to think donuts found in trees aren't exactly something you'd find in the wilderness survival manuals.

[the_ex_in_xp]

Maybe you need to read a Candyland Survival Manual.

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[mock-rolling her eyes amusedly and man I do not have the icons for this pleasant conversation stuff]

Of course, how could I have not thought of that?

[the_ex_in_xp]

I don't know. Maybe you're just too much of a city girl at heart.

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[chuckling a little and sort of drifting closer without realizing it because goddamnit stupid being lulled into a false sense of not misery]

That's probably a factor, yeah.

[the_ex_in_xp]

[is pretty much inexcusably in Roxie's personal bubble, but drifting closer too]

What are the other factors? You thought Clue was a superior board game?

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[yeah but you always do that]

Monopoly. Until someone got annoyed and wrecked the board.

[the_ex_in_xp]

[not always, okay, and not with that slight tilt of the head that's coy and also the sign of a good listener, because that is totally it...listening]

"Someone," huh?

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[right, of course it is]

Someone. As in "not always me."

[the_ex_in_xp]

Course not. Why would you ruin all those hotels if you were in the lead?

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[sort of opening her mouth to answer that but let's not get into how her aunt liked to be an irritating rules lawyer when she was losing when we're nice and intimate here]

Right, yeah...

[the_ex_in_xp]

[yeah, let's not talk about being a sore loser right now]

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[... okay, actually a little stunned for a moment in spite of the mistletoe before kissing back because wait what where did that come from]

[the_ex_in_xp]

[dude, your mouth was slightly open, it was practically an invitation]

[lesbeserious.livejournal.com]

[... oh yeah how could I forget. Well now that that's out of the way, kissing with a lot more conviction and wrapping an arm around your shoulders for good measure]

[the_ex_in_xp]

[The mistletoe impulse has probably been fulfilled by now, so I'll be opening my eyes and remembering that kissing my evil ex is not something a good protagonist or good girlfriend should be doing...


...any second now!]









[Okay, right after you stop doing that thing with your tongue. It's a little distracting...]
