mistletoe meme but is for AMITY and friends (stolen from bakerstreet natch)

mistletoe meme 🎄💋✨
you know the drill. but just in case you don't, the festive plant that hangs around, makes puppies sick, and is a good excuse for a little kissu.
1) basic. it's a christmas party. someone thought it'd be funny. oh no, here we both are. you know what that means! ha ha. we don't have to, but i'm down. jk... unless???
2) magic. some unknown force is trapping you under this plant until tonsil hockey occurs. you don't have to like it, but you do have to play. or stand there forever, see if i care!
3) extra strength. you wouldn't want to play this silly mistletoe game, usually, only for some reason you can't quite resist. what's a little kiss? and once you start, it's just like pringles... ya it is a seasonal sex pollen what do u want from me
4) wildcard. do whatever you want babes! mistletoe but it makes you big mad for some reason. everything is normal but the plant is FAKE AND GLITTERY and that's against the spirit of things. mistletoe but it is an alternate universe in the tradition is to fight instead. mistletoe but they agree to very sedate cheek kisses cuz they're just friends. chase ur bliss
au time!!! 4
Felicity is Tenn's. It's early into their "relationship", and in the month that they've been seeing one another, Tenn has come to the conclusion that Felicity is a handful. She's loud. Vain. Works way too hard – which is ironically a quality that Tenn, himself, has. This is all for appearances in the end, he told himself in the beginning...but he's also seen her caring side. He's seen the results of her hard work in things she enjoys. He's only scratched the surface of who Felicity really is, and he's discerned that she's not all that bad.
It's why Tenn puts a little extra effort into making himself look charming when the kingdom's holiday festivities roll around. He'll patiently wait outside of her dressing room for her to finish getting dressed, so he can escort her to the event like a proper suitor would. He'll be straightening his tie in the meantime, while he waits. ]

or, she had thought she had. when the engagement was announced, it had felt like a slap in the face and she had turned against her widowed mother viciously- and even now she hasn't apologized. but dionira morais was a cunning, power-hungry woman who, if felicity was just a touch less willful, would have used this engagement to her every advantage and more, so she doesn't quite feel bad about that. (she's probably going to try regardless, if felicity cools her temper even a smidgen with her.)
tenn had... never been the target of her anger, no. but he didn't get shielded from anything, either- that, she is willing to apologize for. it's just that she doesn't know how to bring it up weeks later. and she's been so caught up in her own anxiety about it, always overthinking and twisting, that she doesn't even realize why he's waiting for her as she steps out- that he's warming up to her at all. she almost startles, eyes wide before she smiles comfortably, giving a curtsy out of courtesy. despite their engagement, he's still above her, after all. )
Your Highness. Had I known you were waiting, I would have sent one of the maids to bring you something.
( "something" probably means her own baking, to be honest. a little treat before they enter the fray of high society.
at a glance, one might find her gown simple yet elegant. it's only when you look closely and see her beloved moon and stars between the roses, the night-sky like shimmer across the fabric, that it really shines. part of her hair is pulled back in a braided bun that looks more like a rose, while a crescent moon and star pins adorn the rest, the picture of elegance.
just the way she likes it. after all, he said it himself: she's vain! but never without reason. )

No, it's alright. There's no need for that. [ He shakes his head.
He glances at her dress, at how her hair is neatly tied up into an elegant bun. Her efforts won't go unnoticed. ]
You -- [ "Dressed nicely"? No, that's not all-encompassing, is it? ] look nice.
[ That's better. Still, he looks away after he says it, not in a way that indicates embarrassment -- but if Felicity looks closely, there is a light pink color on his cheeks. Ahem.
He looks towards the hallway which will lead them to the stairway. ]
We should get going.

I still have to meet certain standards, you know... ... Besides, my tea blends and baking is a cut above, and I like sharing it.
( always by hand, everything she does. there's a creative fire that cannot be snuffed in her and it shows in everything she does. it may be getting ahead of herself, but she's already got ideas for their reign, even. not that she'll admit it just yet.
and for as vain as she is- and for as justified as she is in it, it's rare to get sincere compliments. ... from people who matter. (when did he start mattering?) she practically preens! felicity almost doesn't notice that he seems to be flustered a bit. ...
cute. )
Thank you. And you look handsome. But yes, we should...
( ... unfortunately, tenn is engaged to a bully. )
Though, you seem a bit flustered.
no subject
[ He's been raised around them, but Felicity is his...peer? His wife-to-be? It feels strange to ask her to treat him like he's above her; it doesn't sit well with him.
Even if she is, indeed, a bully. Tenn frowns a little at her comment, because she is absolutely right, but he's not about to make a big deal out of it. ]
I'm fine. It's just something in the air. [ Not entirely correct, but he'll at least have it in him to wait for her before he walks too far ahead. ] Come on. We shouldn't keep them waiting.
no subject
( felicity is a firm believer in the healing power of little treats. ... and also she just... actually doesn't like social events. she'll suck it up and deal, but... well. perhaps it's telling that she thinks she needs a spark of joy before them regardless.
but yes, yes, she'll come along, tenn. )
...
It's just cute, is all.
( felicity antonia morais- )

Tenn glances away from her, even as she walks with him at his side. ]
You have a weird definition of what's "cute".
[ Of course, he'll be more gentlemanly when they're in front of other people. Privately, though, Felicity has been getting more and more glimpses of a Tenn Kujo who is less composed. Time to talk about something easier: ]
I'll bring you back home by midnight, if not sooner.
[ He'll protect her if he has to. She will get home safely. ]
no subject
( his bride-to-be is fascinated by the macabre, after all. but mostly she's just amused, watching the way his expression shifts. cute. she's always looked at others a bit more... intensely than most others, as an artist- face studies are important, if she's drawing people. but she likes just looking at him, too. the color of his eyes, the little ways his expression will change, the faintest blush when she compliments him... he's certainly handsome.
...
it's not something she really thinks about others, frequently.
so felicity simply chuckles, and nods. )
Naturally.
Ah, I heard they were doing something special for the holidays this time. Do I get a hint?
CRAWLS IN!!
However, he hadn't considered that his bride-to-be sharing that opinion would make him feel some kind of way, which is something he should probably think about later. For now, though, her question. ]
Something special? [ The mistletoe hanging in the banquet room doorways is the obvious answer here, but it's not one Tenn cares to elaborate on to keep his embarrassment at bay. How does he put this... ] It may just be better to decide how you feel about it when you see it.
