At this point, I feel as though I may as well join in the traditional Grotta kissing party games, since I'm sure I'll have been stuck enough to kiss everyone on campus before the mistletoe is defeated anyway.

Whoever did this is terrible. I just feel the need to say that.

That's enough. Let this argument go, Penelope. Even if this is an accident, it doesn't invalidate the fact this has been a uncomfortable and unwelcome experience for many people. It may be that their intention wasn't to hurt people, but this mistletoe still hurt people. Isaiah is reacting to that, and he's entitled to express his own feelings in his own journal entry.

	She started I can't How can anyone actually defend She did it. She clearly did it. Sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You don't have anything to apologize for, Isaiah. I'm sorry I didn't notice this blow-up earlier, I've been busy with... well, you can probably guess why I've busy. This is a mess. [...] Are you alright? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ravi/Isaiah icovington 2016-12-13 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. It is. [...] No, but I suppose at least I'm not a prefect who has to actually seek this stuff out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ah, well. I'm not a Coppertale, I'm not interested in getting competitive about it. This being a terrible experience for me doesn't invalidate that it's been terrible for you. I'm sorry, Isaiah. I know this kind of thing makes you incredibly uncomfortable.

And don't worry, I'm not arguing with Penelope anymore. I can see she's not going to stop repeating her point no matter what anyone says. I just wanted her to leave you alone.

	No, but it does mean we can't just hide in the cabin together and commiserate til it's over. Which I very much wish we could. Thank you. I appreciate that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So do I. But the four of you can hole up while I brave the terrible forces outside. And I can pick up a thermos of tea from the lodge if you're having a difficult time relaxing. You're welcome. I wish I could do more. [...] Has anyone else been bothering you? ~~Is Chris being nice~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't kiss anyone you don't want to kiss, Ravi. You've done your part. You know that, right? You mean, besides Zeke? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ravi/Isaiah paladins 2016-12-13 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	But what if someone's left stranded? Giving a few hand kisses (or receiving a few, when I get unlucky) is worth the price of knowing no one's left alone in the cold. [...] I'm fine. All this doesn't bother me as much. Ah. Zeke would fit right in with the "Smooch Squad." Some people just don't like the reminder that their fun is inconveniencing others.

	There are plenty of competitive and/or happily willing prefects out there taking care of this, you know. Give your...kiss points, or whatever...to the Coppertales. See? Smooch Squad. My point exactly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ravi/Isaiah paladins 2016-12-13 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	I refused to let myself be counted for that "competition." But alright. You're not wrong. I... should be doing homework anyway. [...] Things will be back to normal tomorrow. Last I checked, Mr. Hightower was close to a permanent solution. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So should we all. Oh thank Merlin. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	So its OK to call someone terrible because you're upset. Got it. Thanks so much for that clarification. ~~Oh but gee it wasn't so bad when the Freshmen intentionally took people's choice away because it didn't feel bad~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not interested in arguing straw men with you, Penelope. Let it go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sneakoscoped 2016-12-13 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	Why, Rav? I never said he wasn't allowed to be upset. I said it isn't ok to call people terrible when you don't know the circumstances. But fine. Let's keep believing people are awful and spiteful and hate on them for it. I'm so sorry for arguing against it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
