There is a May crawling the Nexus walls. Nothing extraordinary about this, really, although the box of decorations she's carrying are new. She hums as she hangs things up around the Nexus - stockings, wreaths, mistletoe, ornaments - before leaping down to ask a question

So, really, let's all pretend Allistar wasn't watching the feeds and rushed right into the Nexus proper when he realized May was both stuck and needed kissing to be freed. Because he didn't. No one else better have kissed her though or heads might roll. Or he might pout. It's hard to gauge.

He smiles a little nervously and runs a hand through his hair to look slightly more presentable. "So uhm. I...uh. Heard. You need help." Because he was totally here and all and oh shit, are his pants zipped up? Oh thank god, they are, but his shoes are only half on and he looks a little like he just fell out of bed.

Allistar is...kind of a ho.

"Just checking and all, but are you stuck, too, Allistar?" Concerned Pat is concerned.

Allistar proceeds to jump up and down, notably, he jumps up and down in place. "Sweet! I'm magic!" Of course he goes to take a step and-- "Oh, come ON!" This is the part where he flips the Nexus the bird, which mostly means he aims the profane gesture vaguely skyward.

"Oh now really, how's that going to help?" Pat says in response to the cursing-fingers.
Fortunately, Arista's finest is on the job. There standing-on-tiptoes. "Okay with you?" She asks.

Of course, we have one Ms. Fennix just passing through.

....

Until she discovers she can't leave the vicinity of the mistletoe.

"...What on.."

"...Oh verdammt."

[metody_green]

Freshly freed, Metody bounds over, his creatures clattering and dancing around him.

"Hey, Bella!"

[gears_of_gold]

His arrival has her pausing in aiming her death ray at the offending plant that seems to have trapped her. She is quick to holster it, "Ah, hallo Metody."

"..I seem to be trapped."

[metody_green]

"Yup. It does that. You have to be kissed to be free. Want me to - " He kind of gestures at her, face flaming. Thank goodness Bella is a sensible Victorian.

Whoah--costume hero in distress? Daimon hurries over...and then her request registers.

"Wait, what?" Cue red ears.

Uhm...wait. The whole mistletoe thing doesn't require a kiss on the face anyway. That's never said. Or at least it's worth trying.

"Um, all right, give me your hand...."

[alloy_avenger]

"Sorry, sweetheart. Wasn't built with lips."

Reilly Tyne looks up at his cousin and sighs. "I told that was a bad idea, May!" He shouts up at her, turning to walk away... and, of course, finding he can't move either.

Reilly looks glares at his feet. "No," he tells them, and tries to get away.

He'll be trying for quite a while.

[tyne_dyed_devil]

"Damsel? If I wasn't preoccupied trying to free myself, I think I'd be insulted."

This would sound a lot cooler if Reilly hadn't just said it after falling flat on his face.
