Second Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning

[arsenicmauls]

If Gert had known that her 'quick trip' to the common room to grab a granola bar was going to lead to a coil of mistletoe snaking around her ankle and trapping her rather firmly in place, she would have brought Old Lace with her to bite through the surprisingly strong foliage. Or better yet, she  might not have left her room at all. No granola bar

"Gah!" Jessica called from the stairwell. She made her way into the common room with seveeral sprigs of mistletoe on her shoulders, including a fresh one that got her just now in the stairwell. So far her spider-strength hadn't done much against the stupid things, so she was willing to resort to tools.

"Gert, please tell me you have scissors or knives or chainsaws or something in the kitchen," Jessica pleaded.

Gert was sympathetic. Really. "Sorry," she called back, "but if there are any, you're on your own getting them. I'm stuck." She thumped the wall that she was currently stuck to for emphasis.

This was so stupid, Fandom. So stupid.

"Did you turn weirdly magnetic? Or does this have to do with your new ankle bracelet there?" Jessica checked. "Because I could see either one being the case."

"Thanks, I think," Gert ventured. "You're half right. It's an ankle bracelet made of mistletoe. I'm pretty sure plants aren't supposed to be this strong."

She kicked the wall uselessly.
