Well... we just sort of... kissed in public.

[ And not just kissed, but kissed. ]

I'm saying strange stuff, and you're... not finding it strange.

1/...

[distressedude]

[Perhaps if Ion had had more of that hot chocolate, he'd stay this way a bit longer. But as it is now, it's already starting to wear off.]

Oh, but there's nothing strange about me wanting to kiss you, Kohan.

[distressedude]

In public...

[distressedude]

With people around...

[distressedude]

And my hands on your...

5/5

[distressedude]

[Yeah, Ion's going to just take a nice, sizable step back, his face quickly turning bright red.]

...

Oh.

[personafalsify]

Yeah... that. So... How about we go discuss this matter privately instead?

[ Wait what no that had not been what he was going to say! Ugh, Kohan slaps a hand over his mouth again and gives a frustrated noise. ]

I meant we should probably try to stop whatever this is.

[distressedude]

[Kohan, keep saying things like that and Ion's head is going to explode. He already looks like a little tomato with how red his face is from earlier.]

Well... I think whatever it was is gone for me. Though I'm still not sure what came over me in the first place...

[rashness]

What's that supposed to mean?

[ofnobleheart]

[ Natalia looks at the game for a moment. ]

Hmm... Allow me to try, if I may.

[ As the Sprite gives her a hoops she hopes as hard as she cans and--

does how Erica does it and knocks one over. ]

[halflived]

That does sound like a long shot. [... You know what, maybe he should hand the hot chocolate over, too. It still felt plenty warm enough as he shoves it in Fayt's hands.]

But you do whatever you need to do to avoid a cold, because those are always unpleasant.

[drawnbythesword]

...Richard?

[drawnbythesword]

Of course. How do you think people learn to be knights?

[mischiefbreeder]

Ahh, forbidden love~! [He clasps his hands together and cradles his head against them. And then he stops, drooping his arms down to his sides.]

So you're going after girls from the other enclosures now, huh?

[etherealblast]

[Fayt takes the hot chocolate, but he pointedly doesn't drink it. He had a suspicion....

At least it was warm.] Hope springs eternal, right? But really, I'd just be glad for someplace warm and dry.

[disastergirl]

[Jane tried responding with words at first, but that was a no go. Instead she just hugged him tight. Would that get her point across? She wasn't sure. It didn't stop her from glancing up at him again whenever she thought he wasn't looking, either.

Still, she couldn't stay silent forever.]

Then I'll hold on too!

[...She should have just kept quiet, huh?]

[personafalsify]

Good for you, at least.

[ Sob he is afraid to open his mouth now. Who knows what might come out... ]

Do you think... it might have been the hot chocolate? [ Because now that he thinks about it it's pretty damn suspicious. ]

[distressedude]

...well, it didn't seem like anything happened until after we had some...

[Sob, now he feels guilty for being so insistent on wanting some. But he had some of the regular stuff earlier and nothing happened...!]

[personafalsify]

[ Did it, Ion? Did it really? ]

And the Malnosso do have a habit of putting something in our sweets... Now I have something to put in you-- [ FUCK HE DIDN'T JUST ACTUALLY SAY THAT DID HE he totally actually just say that didn't he. Double hands over his mouth now.

damn everything ]

[distressedude]

[jshdfks Kohan.]

[Ion is just going to go bright red right now. He's not entirely sure how he feels about swag-Kohan, but after that little stunt earlier, he's feeling a little too vulnerable out here like this.]

...thinking about it, perhaps we should find somewhere private. Until the effects completely wear off, at least.

[personafalsify]

Maybe. [ He mumbles it from behind his fingers, his own face just as bright as Ion's, if not more. ] And I won't embarrass myself in front of anyone else...

[distressedude]

...come on, I think I know a place we go. And it should be nice and warm in there, too.

[And he'll just be holding out a hand for Kohan to take -- you know, provided he only needs one to cover his mouth up.]

[secretmiracle]

You did it! And on your first try too, that was very impressive. What do you think?

[She looks at the sprite who just... Looks back. That isn't how you play the game, why are you getting excited?]

I think they're so surprised that you managed to knock one over on your first try that they don't know what they should say! [No. No that isn't it.]

Closed to Gai - Latest of the Late

[tearmeanewone]

[Well, so much for trying to escape Valentine's Day a la Malnosso. But, that doesn't necessarily mean that Elizabeth was going to hide at home when there was something interesting going on. And, as far as she was concerned, if she stayed with Gai nothing bad could happen that would destroy their engagement.]

[She waits, watching the little sprites go by with a mix of trepidation and curiosity. It would be her first time at a festival though, so she was mostly excited.]

[voidseeing]

[To say that Gai wasn't a bit apprehensive as well would be a lie, especially given his memories of what had happened at the Valentine's vacation last year. Not that it had been BAD (no, it had been quite the opposite), but last year had been different. Magical chocolates weren't a big deal when one was single and didn't have any reason to turn down casual sex. Now, however...

Well, as long as he stays with Elizabeth, things should be all right. Even he had to admit that this festival looked like it would be fun... or filling, at the very least. He can't remember the last time he's seen this much food. Is that a chocolate fountain over there?]

I'd ask where you want to start, but we might have more luck closing our eyes and pointing.
