So... ahem...

it's ~that time of year~, you know! When it's getting near to Christmas kissing tradition... not that we'll be doing much of that around St. Edelweiss, but you know, there are other venues. Like this one.

[Have a calmly smiling doc!]

Cyril has told me a lot about this type of therapy, in our staff meetings.

omg.

[payback]

[Watching. Warily.]

And what kind of therapy is that?

It's all for the sake of your health, Rin. =|

Ahh...[Tapping his chin and looking skywards, like he's searching for a name.]

Cultural immersion, let's call it. Learning to function socially by experiencing the practices of another group of people.

For example - [And the finger on his chin points up.]

Do you know about the traditions surrounding mistletoe, in Western cultures?

...kissing? B|

[Glances up as well, and then quickly back to him. No, she doesn't trust you for a second, Hush.]

No, I can't say I do.

It works for magical princesses. B(

Well, in many places, they're considered symbols of fertility or even immortality. They have a very specific role at Christmastime, though - that's a holiday in the early winter.

The tradition is that any two people who end up standing beneath the same sprig of mistletoe have to kiss.

[Winning smile!]

Understand?

Hush, you are not a princess. (We are sorry to have to be the ones to say it.)

[payback]

[Glances up at the mistletoe...

over at Hush...

and in the direction of the exit...

all very, very quickly. And then goes to edge escape-wards.]

Mmm. Yes. Sounds simple.

No, no, no. He is Prince Charming in this analogy. =D

[onesoulintwo]

[Hush will just let Rin figure out how far she's not going to get with that edging thing. He keeps a muse-y smile on his face.]

It's actually kind of a romantic trope, back in America. I assume it's the same way, over here...
