Happy holidays to your lips~

✾ MISTLETOE MEME ✾

• You are stuck under a random mistletoe.
• There is a note on said mistletoe.
• Whoever comes within range will be pulled under the mistletoe and also be stuck.
• Now you both have to do what the note says to get unstuck.

The "orders" range from cordial to making out, so state your preferences. Feel free to mix and match them, too. Here are your options:

1. Hug. Easy enough. Can be a simple hug or a giant bear hug.
2. Kiss on the cheek. For those who might be a little shier.
3. Kiss on the hand. For those who want to be...well whatever kissing on the hand invokes. Charming? Dashing?
4. Kiss on the lips. 1-2-3 KISS. This is the tame version of the next one.
5. Make-out for five minutes. As described on the tin.

Charity's always good. People need charity.

[Gil knows he's not really making sense now, but he's very distracted by looking down at Felix's lips.]

[scanninggaydis]

[He's making a nominal amount of sense.

Felix can see where he's looking though, and he ends up smiling. A little self-consciously, but still.

A final step brings him practically chest to chest with Gil, though he's keeping his hands to himself for now.]

I, uh...I haven't done this in a while. I mean, kissed anyone for more than a few seconds.

Just so you know. If it's...disappointing. That's why.

[He's got manage expectations!]

[mongoosecrow]

I honestly doubt anything about kissing you will be disappointing, Felix.

[scanninggaydis]

[Okay, that makes the smile just a little bit bigger and more genuine. But since he's Felix, he feels the need to play it down.]

It's okay, I'll let you reserve judgement on that until later.

[All right...how does he go about this...

With a flickering glance up at Gil's face to confirm that it's okay, Felix slowly reaches out. One hand comes to rest lightly on Gil's hip, the other curls over the top of one shoulder.

Actually leaning in to brush their lips together shouldn't cause his heart to start pounding in his chest, but it does. Performance anxiety.]

[mongoosecrow]

[Gil still lets Felix make all of the first moves, but once they're kissing he seems more than pleased about it. He returns the kiss with the same pace as Felix, not wanting to push him into anything more.

His own hand settles on Felix's side and holds onto him as if to anchor them both.]

[scanninggaydis]

[It's sweet that Gil is letting him set the pace, but it definitely means that Felix is thinking about this too much.

He has that problem. Overthinking.

The hand on Gil's hip slides gently around until it's at the small of his back instead. Felix angles his head a little, shifts his weight, deepens the kiss a bit.

His heart is still beating too fast, and Felix deliberately deepens and slows his breathing to try to get it to calm the frak down.]

[mongoosecrow]

[When Felix deepens the kiss, Gil hums against his mouth and returns the pressure.

His own hand grips Felix's shirt lightly as he lets himself enjoy the closeness and how it feels and tastes.]

[scanninggaydis]

[Felix isn't...really used to being wanted anymore. Of course, that's not entirely fair. Kai had flirted with him, Gil himself has flirted with him. But words are one thing. Actions are another.

It's the fact that Gil hums. That's what gets him. A very small shiver even runs through his body.

He shouldn't, maybe, but it makes him press into the kiss even more. At the same time, Felix holds himself just a little less tightly. Softens, lets himself lean into Gil a bit.]

[mongoosecrow]

[As Felix melts, Gil responds. He presses a little closer, holds onto Felix a little tighter, and deepens the kiss. He has liked the idea of kissing Felix for a while now, but had promised distance when it was needed.

Now, though, it feels a bit like letting the flood gates down. He wants to taste and explore while he has the chance to do so.]

[scanninggaydis]

[It's definitely like letting the floodgates down. Bit by bit. Felix has a lot of defenses, generally tries to keep people at a comfortable distance because that's what makes sense to him.

But that's not what making out is supposed to entail. It's supposed to be about letting go a little. And after almost four years...

Felix has to admit he missed this. Being touched, touching someone else. He's trying to remind himself that this isn't something that's really his, not absolutely real. But that's getting tougher to remember as the seconds tick by. Felix presses his body a little closer, the hand on Gil's back turning into an arm circling his waist.

The gates give another few inches when he tentatively parts his lips, tongue teasing at Gil's. If they're going to make out, they might as well do it right....? Or something like that.]
