Mistletoe sub-plot, anyone?

Hey everyone, Jade here (mun of Naomi, Seiga, and Kags) with an offer for a plot that some might be interested in. I'm sure many here are familiar with the classic mistletoe meme that appears on Bakerstreet every so often (even during the non-holiday seasons). Well, this here Seiga definitely understands the holiday spirit... and she also understands the art of messing with people and enchantments. (In her line of work, she even dresses up as Santa Claus at one point!) As for the real reason why she's doing this? Well, that's for her to know and others to guess at.

Here's how it'd go:

-- Character X is minding their own business when suddenly they are unable to move from their spot.
-- If Character X thinks to do so, they may look up and see a bough of mistletoe hanging or floating above them!
-- Character X is stuck in that spot until someone releases them from the enchantment with a kiss. How intense the kiss must be is up to the players; for children, it is perfectly permissible that the enchantment can be broken with a simple kiss on the cheek.
-- If Character Y comes along, they are free to move around within the vicinity until they are under the mistletoe and close enough to kiss Character X. At that point, they won't be able to move from the spot either.
-- These mistletoe will be everywhere and anywhere you'd want Seiga to put them (grocery store, office, living room, lab, store, restaurant, etc). She's got an ability to pass through just about everything (magical power and barriers too!), so if you want a mistletoe hanging in some obscure place, it can definitely be there. By the time this is over, hopefully your characters will grow either to love or hate these magic mistletoe.
--As for the IC days of when this would occur, it wouldn't be until mid-December (15/16/17th-ish). I'd put up log then for any participants, and people would be free to tag around with who they like.

So that's my proposition for a sub-plot. If anyone's interested, I'd like to hear from you, or if you want to go ahead and plot in this post that's cool too!

I expect nothing less. Poor Chie is going to flip.

Fun fact: Shizune doesn't even swing that way, she just likes messing with people.

Yeah, neither does Chie (unless your name is Yukiko :P), but she's a lot easier to fluster. Especially about this kind of stuff.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexcellent.

Also I realized that while Shizune knows what Chie looks like Chie hasn't seen Shizune in person

Be gentle when you go for the cheek, Chie, she might think you're trying to eat her.
