WHAT Christmas in July
WHERE Every-fucking-where
WHEN Day 141 & 142

[IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR. It's . . . well, time doesn't really work well here anyway, but it's been 'a while' since the last 'festive activities' so that's what's happening, right here, right now.

It's still warm enough for shorts and t-shirts, but there's also big fat snowflakes falling from the sunny sky, making piles of it that are pleasantly cool and don't seem to melt. Skating rinks! Palm trees and cacti decorated with pretty sparkly lights! Do we even have those? We do today.

Besides that, you can do whatever you want to, to get into the #mood:

• Mistletoe? Mistletoe for kissing, for cuddling, for whatever?
  
• Mysterious gifts with your name on them that turn out to be a long-lost item from your childhood?
  
• Blankets that you get trapped under until someone joins you in there to cuddle?
  
• [insert your fun here]

Seems like it is.

[looks up at the mistletoe and sighs]

I was working up to this. I don't see why parasitic plant compulsions had to be involved.

[coldhand]

We don't have to... [or maybe they do. toss up]

[thismightaswellhappen]

[orrrr maybe they do!!]

Are you sure about that?

[coldhand]

I'm not sure about anything.

[thismightaswellhappen]

[mouth quirk]

I'm sure coercive effects piss me off.

[she glances down before continuing]

But I'm also sure I'd kiss you without the gimmick.

[coldhand]

You mean you haven't completely lost interest after all those years?

[thismightaswellhappen]

Was that a concern?

[coldhand]

I wouldn't blame you if it happened. That's a long time.

[thismightaswellhappen]

Well, it didn't.

[coldhand]

That's good to know.

[thismightaswellhappen]

So...? Should we see if we can leave, or should we just pretend this was all our own idea?

[coldhand]

Wasn't it?

[thismightaswellhappen]

[heh. she steps in closer in response, looping her wrists around Bucky's shoulders]

[coldhand]

[that must mean it's time for a kiss]

[thismightaswellhappen]

[a soft taking-it-easy kiss yes]

[coldhand]

[nice and easy, enjoying the moment. it's nice to know kissing is still on the table]

[thismightaswellhappen]

[it really is. she's smiling when she pulls away]

...hi.

[coldhand]

Hey. Good to have you back.

[thismightaswellhappen]

Thanks. What'd I miss?

[coldhand]

Nothing too important.

[hands on he back]

[thismightaswellhappen]

Yeah? Pretty smooth sailing?

[coldhand]

Smooth enough. Smooth as ever.

[thismightaswellhappen]

Well, at least I don't have to do any catching up.

[coldhand]

Nah. You're good.
