[Touma had spent most of the evening on Patrol in Sector 0. So he wasn't up until later in the day. He went to his classes in the late morning. He did some martial art practice in the early afternoon. Late afternoon found him at DF HQ doing schedules and paperwork for his team. That night, he was back out on patrol. Feel free to catch him around.]

[ quinn comes across him at night, after a day of shopping and getting caught by those kissing bots. she'd kissed more people today than she had during her freshman and sophomore years combined. all she wanted was to get home, put her stuff down, and lock the door so the bots couldn't trap her with any more unfortunate souls.

speaking of. ] You really don't want to be out here right now.

	I don't think anyone does. But, I kind of have to be. [He nodded to her bags.] You probably should have waited to get that stuff until tomorrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would've, had I known what this crazy holiday was about ahead of time. [ why the wardens didn't warn them... not like they ever did, but it would've been nice if they had! ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-02-11 05:05 pm UTC (link)
	[He nodded.] Yeah. I think I only got caught for one of these once. But, it wasn't actually a holiday that I remember back then. Maybe the new Wardens got confused... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you mean it's not actually a holiday? [ because if it wasn't supposed to be one, someone should really tell the wardens so something like this doesn't happen again. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-02-12 03:51 am UTC (link)
	Because it was never pointed out as being one in the last dome. I just figured it was another one of those weird occurrances. In both domes, the Wardens always announce holidays. They never announced the bots before. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	[Laura has been at the Defense Force headquarters herself that day, looking for Kitty. She prefers to speak to people directly rather than talking to them over the communicators, given how easily the wardens ca monitor all conversations on it. She pushes open the door to leave after not finding Kitty there and almost runs right into Touma.] ...Excuse me. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-02-11 04:41 am UTC (link)
	[He managed to avoid being bumped. Good reflexes and all that.] Oh, hey. [He smiled.] No problem. It's a tight spot. Looking for someone? [Even DF members didn't really spend a lot of time around HQ unless they were doing reports or meeting with other members.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-02-16 08:27 pm UTC (link)
	Kitty. The older. [She has not yet met the younger Kitty, but she knows that she exists.] Is she here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-02-25 05:24 am UTC (link)
	I haven't seen her, yet, today. Anything in particular you need from her? Maybe I can help. [Except for that little bot hanging around in the shadows waiting for the right moment to strike.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-01 08:33 am UTC (link)
	She is my Sector Squad leader, I was searching for her to debrief from my latest patrol. If she is not here, I will look elsewhere. [And she hears the robot only when Laura turns to leave.] We are being watching. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Touma frowned at her second comment, the first forgotten in the idea that they were being watched. Granted, they were always being watched, but for it to be pointed out meant there was something extra going on. He glanced around and it didn't take long to figure out what it was. He spotted the reflection off the metal skin.]

Mistletoe bot...

[Knowing it was caught, it rushed in to catch them!]

	[It rushes in and it's too late for them to get away. Laura stares at it as if she could cut it to pieces with her eyes.] You are aware of what it is and its function, I am guessing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-02 03:01 am UTC (link)
	Unfortunately. It's made for a really awkward day. [Just to remind them, it told them to kiss.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-02 05:59 pm UTC (link)
	[Laura is starting to get a bit more annoyed by these robots. She does not like being told what to do, having her free will taken away. At the same time it is so minor in comparison to what she considers a true violation. The lesser of all evils.] Then we should proceed. [She is more than willing to take the lead if he will not and get this completely soonest.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-02 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	Right. Proceed. [Oh, boy. He stiffened up in anticipation. Nothing personal, Laura, but this kind of stuff was really awkward for Touma.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[It would be more awkward for her if there was a true level of intimacy in it. For Laura this is no different than completing a mission. She leans up a bit, but also pulls him down toward her because she is rather short. The kiss is light, but Laura doesn't move away until she counts to seven, which she believes is a sufficient amount of time.]

Done.

[The robot agrees if the confetti it throws at them is any indication.]

	[Well, that was a relief. Made things less awkward for him.] That was easier than I thought. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-05 03:59 am UTC (link)
	[It was, but Laura is more focused on keeping an eye out should the little robot come back.] It only requires a kiss. The robots do not care otherwise. It will find another target now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-05 04:10 am UTC (link)
	I heard there's one flying around that's picky about the type of kiss. I guess we were lucky. [He smiled a bit.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-05 04:20 am UTC (link)
	It requires a specific type of kiss? I have not seen this robot. [So maybe the robots do adapt like she once thought.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-05 04:36 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. It demands longer or deeper kisses before letting go if it isn't satisfied with what kind of kiss was done. I got stuck with Nasuti like that in the old dome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-05 06:50 am UTC (link)
	That sounds inefficient and overindulgent. [Neither of which Laura likes.] I do not see what we are meant to learn from this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-05 04:59 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think it was originally a learning activity. It seems more like a prank. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	xtricate 2013-03-05 05:04 pm UTC (link)
	But it is not funny. [Laura has a sense of humor--however unlike most people's it may be--but forcing people to kiss is not what she would consider amusing.] Forcing people to do things under thread of dying is serious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	streamofthesky 2013-03-05 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	No. I definitely agree. However, one thing I've learned about this place is that people can have some really warped senses of humor. [He frowned.] You're okay, though, right? Not hurt or anything? [Not that they got all that squished, but he just wanted to make sure.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
