It is rather fortunate, I should think, that a different attitude towards-- all this has emerged over time. If it were 1878 still, everyone kissing today would be expected to marry.

[ ooc; ... I'm going to hell for this, aren't I? Feel free to run into her in the library, or on the street. Go ahead, traumatise the girl. ]

Comments

action; /jumps into handbasket with you

[commarogue]

[ She'd finally managed to make it back to the Youth Center after a really not-fun night with a nest of ... slimy somethings. Faith is trying to sneak in without incident, as she'd already had a few of them on the way home and this was not the place she was looking for another one.

She'd sword she scoped out the stair case before moving upward to go crash in her room. As Tessa comes down, Faith gives a nod. ]

Morning.

[ And that's when she sees it. Faith grips the banister in an attempt to resist the pull, but she can't help it. She's in Tessa's space before she can really react and reach up to pull her in for a kiss.

She's never going to make up for all her sins if they keep piling up like this. ]

action; /sakjhadkshja y-yay!

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa freezes for a moment. This is a woman. And it's Miss Faith. Who is kissing her. Kissing.

She did not expect this when she got up this morning.

But the pull of the curse doesn't take into account outdated sensibilities, so Tessa finds herself kissing back - hesistantly at first and then with a little more enthusiasm. ]

action;

[commarogue]

[ She should be responsible. She should push Tessa away and lock herself in her room. She should be really all kind of ashamed and embarrassed.

So, instead, Faith leans up a little more so that she can get a hand in under Tessa's jaw and deepen the kiss. Does Tessa need to learn what French kissing is? ]

action;

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa has been kissed before. Even involving tongue. Once or twice. She might not know the terminology, but she's not a bad kisser, regardless.

And it might just be the curse, because she'd be all kinds of horrified with herself for letting this happen otherwise, but she leans into the kiss a little and even makes a soft little noise at the back of her throat when Faith deepens the kiss. ]

[bloodcakedarmor]

[It would have to be on the street since Derek doesn't go to the library unless he absolutely has to because it reminds him of Reid. He's out walking about, staying away from the Youth Center so nothing bad happens, and he runs into Tessa. He doesn't even say hello, just compulsively goes over to her and plants a kiss on her lips.]

[action]

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa was about to say hello, but then he's kissing her and really, what is it with people from the Youth Centre kissing her, today? ... It might have to do with proximity, but she just ran into Mr Morgan outside of the Youth Centre, so there goes that theory.

That he'd just walk up to her and kiss her would worry her, normally, and that she'd not only let him but actually kiss him back would horrify her-- except it's a curse, so instead of worrying about it, her hands go up to his shoulders and she kisses back. ]

[action]

[bloodcakedarmor]

[It's a quick kiss, he leans back and looks into her eyes. And for a brief moment he looks like he might be going in for more.] Tessa? I... just kissed you.

[action]

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa blinks up at him, more than just a little confused. It seems, though, as though at least the part of her brain responsible for speech is still functioning, because before she knows it, she's replied: ] Yes, Mr Morgan.

I noticed that. [ And then she's blushing furiously. ]

[action]

[likeboudica]

[ This is Tessa's first time dealing with this curse, and she's wondering whether it wouldn't have been better to stay in her room, after all. But the compliment is still nice, and she smiles at the girl. ]

Yours is prettier, I should think. [ It's not a boring brown, at any rate, even though Tessa can't quite believe that pink would be anyone's natural hair colour. ]

[action]

[likeboudica]

[ Oh. Oh. Tessa is still not comfortable with the whole kissing strangers business, particularly not when those strangers are girls as well, but the mistletoe does it's magic and she leans forward, towards Euphie. ]

action, couldn't help myself.

[ridethecyclone]

[ He's walking the street when he bumps into her, and it just so happens, the shop front above them has got mistletoe sprung from it. Bucky's hands go to her waist, dipping her slightly as he plants a soft kiss on her lips.

He can't marry you though, his heart belongs to his gun. :| ]

action, adsljasdl;jaa ilu *-*

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa has never been dipped in her life, except by her brother when dancing in the living room. Her hands go up instinctively to Bucky's shoulders, her lips soft and pliant under his.

It's okay, Bucky. She doesn't really want to marry you, anyways. ]

action, no ilu!

[ridethecyclone]

[ She’s a sweet kisser, and Bucky’s gentle with her, because even with the mistletoe, he’s still a good guy underneath.

Breaking apart eventually. ] Damn, I have to apologise for that, ma’am.

action, ilu more >.>

[likeboudica]

[ Tessa scrambles to get her bearing, her hands dropping away from his shoulders once she's standing somewhat more firmly on her own feet again.

And then not only has he kissed her, but he curses as well. Tessa flushes, looking down and away. ]

Sir. [ But it is her fault. She is a woman, she should not tempt men, should not let them-- and of course, it's a curse. ] It was a curse, was it not?

Action /is going further down into hell than you are

[allinhishands]

[This curse has proven to be most entertaining. Alexis is smiling a bit as he walks a long, looking every bit like a proper gentleman from a Victorian Era. Noticing a pretty girl, he lifts his brow as she draws closer before he tips his hat to her.]

Do forgive me. [That is all the warning she gets before he cups his chin gently and presses his lips to hers.]

Action at least neither of us will be alone?

[likeboudica]

[ He looks like a gentleman, but that image is rather quickly destroyed when he kisses her immediately. That is not the behaviour of a gentleman, Alexis dear.

Not that Tessa quite realises, caught up in the curse and the kiss as she is, with her hands going up to rest against his chest. ]

Action we can go hand in hand!

[allinhishands]

[Alas, that lure of the mistletoe. Not that he needed it to begin with but...

Alexis lets the kiss linger a moment longer before pulling back and guiding her out from under the plant. Reaching up, he pulls it down.]

Again, my apologies.

Action skipping down the road to heeeeeeeeeeell

[likeboudica]

[ She's going to stare at you, unmoving, for a moment. Tessa is not, in any way, prepared for the amount of kissing that is currently going on. Not when it involves her.

Eventually, she manages to gather enough composure to drop into a quick curtsy. ]

Of course, sir. [ She tells the ground rather than Alexis' face. ]
