[The feed times in and someone is standing underneath the mistletoe just staring up at it. He looks into the communicator and smiles]

I keep seeing these curious little plants all over the place. What are they?

[Souji just grinning. Yes this is one clueless samurai]

[bloodshedlament]

Mistletoe? Is it a western plant?

[bloodshedlament]

I see. They do seem to be everywhere, and right now this one seems to have a barrier under it.

[whiteduplicity]

[you poor child]

Mistletoe... You have to, ah, kiss under them...

[bloodshedlament]

Kiss? But kiss who?

[confused]

[whiteduplicity]

Whoever's under there with you, at the time...

[bloodshedlament]

But I'm alone. [trys to move but hits an invisible wall. Souji blinks and trys it again poking it with this sword]

Is this part of it?

[subshiki]

They'll shock you.

[bloodshedlament]

Shock me? Well I'm hardly surprised.

[yes because electricity was something he didn't know about. XP aw such new horizons]

[lutefisk]

They're an enabler.

[bloodshedlament]

How are they an enabler?

[lutefisk]

By giving a reason to kiss. It's insurance.

[bloodshedlament]

I see. Not very nice insurance though..not a nice trick in the first place. What happens if I have no one to kiss?

[lovespuffins]

Avoid them, they'll get you in unfortunate situations.

[bloodshedlament]

How so?

[lovespuffins]

...

Like make you kiss someone.

[bloodshedlament]

How can a Tiny plant make you do something though, perhaps I should not be asking such questions. This place has proved more then once the ability to surprise.
