Day 255 — Mistletoe Mingle
[You won't hear them coming. You won't see their snare. The mistletoe bots are out and they're hunting you, two by two. You can run and you can hide, but eventually you will be caught, and then there's nothing left to do but kiss your way out!]

(OOC: Mingle until your lips are chapped! Information on mistletoe bots event.)

	[ there is not enough distaste on her face for this as she turns back to eric. it isn't that she doesn't like him. she's just... a single woman who is so not interested in the dating scene, let alone kissing scene. ] Last person I kissed [ who wasn't caroline ] was my ex-husband. It'd be nice if we had a choice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ [ Oh he recognizes that Liz has no desire to do this and while Eric likes kissing, he's really not in the mood for that sort of thing. ] Indeed, but as we're all here against our will, you shouldn't be surprised that we don't have a say in this either. [ The bot demands again and the barrier nudges them closer. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ it's more that eric is a close friend of caroline's and somehow that's more awkward than the idea of kissing a vampire. go figure.

liz makes a face. so much for being an adult about all of this. ]

There's really no other--

[ she was about to say "option" but the nudge is more like a bump and it cuts her off as she stumbles a few steps forward. so she gives him a "let's get this over with" look. ]

You're really tall. [ because that is the most important thing here, clearly. ]

Your choice on what kind of kiss it is. I'm okay with any.

[ Kissing is much less complicated for Eric. Liz isn't someone he'd normally kiss both because of her relationship to Caroline and her relationship with him, but she is someone he knows and he appreciates that. Eric chuckles both at the look and at the comment. ]

So I've been told. [ He leans down, moving one hand to rest beneath Liz's chin and tilt it up a bit then he closes the remaining distance between them, his lips pressing against hers. ]

hmm this might be enough awkward for her to deal with xD

[ kissing implies some sort of romantic connection. or it used to. god only know what it is now. liz is giving up trying to put sense to anything here. so she just squeezes her eyes shut and lets it happen.

it's not... bad, exactly. it's just awkward. she doesn't do romantic anything, barely even does being close to caroline and that only came about in the last year. he's gentle at least, more than she'd have expected, and probably a decent kisser if given the chance. but she's still coming to terms with her ex-husband and everything he stands for -- because that's a lot of crap to deal with. thank you, bill forbes, for trying to torture the very vampire out of her daughter -- not to mention the vampire thing in general. liz is just in this to get the stupid bot to let them go and she's sorry to eric if it shows.

but she does try to make it less awkward than it is, resting her hands on his shoulders for balance. she's not short, but she's not tall, either. he, however, is tall and there's a lot of distance between them. the bot gives them a little nudging to make it better. liz resists rolling her eyes and tries her best to relax into it. she does have enough tact not to shove away once the bot's satisfied and lets them go, instead deciding to let eric do that honor. ]

	[ Eric doesn't lurch away either, but he does move away quickly enough. He's aware of the awkwardness for her and cares enough to attempt to make it less awkward. He clears his throat and nods. ] Perhaps that's our cue to move on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ liz's life is just full of awkward and hard to deal with events. this is just another cherry on the sundae that is her life. she offers a tight-lipped smile. ]

I think I'm going to head indoors. [ paaaaause. ] You're welcome to come hide out, too. I'm starting to think staying inside is the better option for the day.

[ it's a big offer from her, a sign that she isn't blaming him for the insane awkwardness here and that she doesn't want to lose his friendship or be the reason that friendship breaks. ]

	[ Eric hesitates at the offer. ] To a private residence? [ Because the bar is public and he's fairly sure a door won't stop the bots. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she pauses. good point. ] Sure. That's probably a better option than any of the public places I was thinking of. We can hole up in my apartment. There's no one else there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Eric hesitates then nods. ] If you don't mind the intrusion. [ Because he cares enough that he doesn't want to intrude. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

If I did, I wouldn't have invited you.

[ if there's one thing to say about liz, she isn't needlessly nice. she's strong-minded and if she offers something, she means it. but it's nice that he cares enough to ask. ]

I might not have a lot to do there, but it's better than getting caught out here again.

[ and eric is nice enough, at least to her, that she doesn't mind issuing that invitation inside. assuming his type of vampire needs one. ]

	I'm sure we'll find something to amuse ourselves. [ said in that droll, dry tone of voice that keeps it from sounding as if he's suggesting anything at all. He will need an invitation. ] Perhaps movies. (Reply to this) (Parent)
