Mitsuhide is stood in the plaza, wrapped up in warm clothes and hair loose about his shoulders. There is a single bag clutched in his left hand. He's stopped what he was doing in order to stare at the plant from a short distance, wary of just how much there is all around. He's not forgotten what it means. Not at all. A previous curse served well to inform him of that.
It's caused him plenty of embarrassment before. A slight frown crosses his features, and he shakes his head. Perhaps it would be best to return home now?
Too late! He's been spotted, and Selphie rushes over, waving a hand full of the stuff - the last remaining mistletoe. She almost trips over her big elf shoes but stops just short of the man.
"Hello! Happy Christmas!"
Wanting nothing but to spread happiness and love, Selphie raises the mistletoe towards him in offering.
Selphie just watches as he steps away, and she promptly bites her lip, lowering her eyes to look at the mistletoe in her hand with something of dismay.
"No..."
She gives a quick glance back up at him, eyes brimming with worry, "Is it something bad...?"
Italy smiled as he saw the cute girl, who he remembered from his pasta dinner. Her outfit was...different but its not like Italy minds. As he approaches her, he smiles at the mistletoe behind her ear.
"You're getting really into it!" He laughed as he glanced around at her decorations, "do you need help?"
Italy stares at it and it really was amazing. He looks above her head at the mistletoe that hangs directly above her. He reaches out and takes the plant, before looking her over some more.
"You understand the significance of mistletoe right?"
Selphie smiles, pleased to see that he's picked some of the flowers for himself. Good to know that people are enjoying her decorations as much as she is.
"Significance?" Selphie shakes her head slowly, staring at the mistletoe in his hand, hoping desperately that it's not some kind of death omen.
[ Alucard was out, getting something for Namine when he spotted the girl putting up mistletoe. He takes out the black Jackal pistol and shoots the weed into oblivion. The vampire narrows his red eyes underneath his red sunglasses. His voice is akin to a growl, deep and rumbling, like the voice of the Devil. ]
*Selphie jumps at the pistol sound, whipping round and holding some mistletoe at the ready - she was weaponless, but she was ready. Eyes narrowed towards the offending...person. Little girl? She says nothing, just glares*
Kenshin was quite unfamiliar about this Christmas. It was a day of giving, a festival he'd never heard of. Then again, with Japan in such turmoil, giving wasn't exactly on everyone's mind at the moment.
Kenshin had arrived in the plaza in his usual full regalia, admiring the decorations. He noted the girl on the ladder, may Bishamonten's might keep her safe up there, and her unusual style of dress. "Do be careful, my lady."
At the sudden voice, Selphie started at the top of the ladder. She wobbles a little but manages eventually to gain her balance. Selphie turns to face the speaker, but in doing so falls the final few steps of ladder, landing in a heap of tinsel and mistletoe.
With quick reflexes, Kenshin stopped her fall, catching her gracefully in his arms. Despite his small wiry frame, he was quite strong and had no trouble at all catching her. "Thank Bishamonten you were not injured with such a fall, my lady."
Selphie blinks up at him, quite confused as to what had just happened. But she smiles brightly, though she has no idea what Bisha...Bisha...what had he said?

He stares at the mistletoe, something of a blush spreading across his cheeks as he takes a step back. Oh dear.
"You... you are aware of what mistletoe means, correct?

Happily, she raises a handful of mistletoe towards him, "I'm just putting up the rest of these flowers!"
