Who: Lance Sweets and YOU
What: Kissing! And also Sweets going about his day.
When: Monday, December 12.
Where: Anywhere and everywhere.
Rating: PG
Notes: Actionspam or prose is fine. If you don't want a kiss but still want CR, then feel free to leave "no kiss" in the subject line, and they'll just chat for a bit. Have fun!



[This is one of the castle traditions that Sweets tends to forget about. Maybe it because it only happens once a year, maybe because what it is that makes people kiss is always changing, but regardless of what it is, he forgets. Which means he's going about his day pretty obliviously.

You can either catch him at his office, wandering throughout the castle, or somewhere outside, playing in the snow. Because really, what respectable person doesn't take the opportunity to play in the snow every once in a while.

Regardless of where he is -- have at him. He would be more than happy to talk to you, even with those fairies floating around.]

He shakes his head. "Sorry. It's not you. I just ... forgot the castle does that."

[formersocialite]

"The fairies, right?" She says, putting things together. "Yeah, it happened to me a few times already."

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

"It wasn't always fairies. My first year here it was bells, and then the year after it was doves. Apparently this year it's fairies."

"Oh, I see. It's my first December here so I wouldn't have known that." Vivian runs a hand through her hair. "It could be something different next year, yeah?"

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

He nodded. "The castle likes to keep us on our toes that way. But I guess it is one of the nicer traditions that the castle has."

[formersocialite]

"Agreed. Definitely one of the nicer ones. At least now I know what to expect from the castle around this time of year."

"Hopefully you'll stick around long enough for you to swing back around again."

[formersocialite]

"Well, it's been about eight months so I don't think I'm going anytime soon. Quite the interesting experience."

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

"It is," he said. "It's been a rather educational one as well. I've got to speak with a lot of people from various walks of life. They really broaden your view of the world."

[formersocialite]

"Yeah, they do. I've learned a lot from them. Also got to do and see things that I never thought possible." She quickly thought about those things.

"I suppose it hasn't been too bad for me here. How about you?"

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

"I've actually come to like the place. Quite a bit."

[formersocialite]

"That's good," she replied amiably. "Would you ever want to leave though?"

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

He paused for a minute, then shrugged. "It's a tough choice. I have friends and family there, but I have friends and family here too."

[formersocialite]

"Mhm, I can see why it would be pretty tough," Vivian said thoughtfully. "I've no one I know from home here, but I've made a few friends."

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sweets nodded. "So have I. When you've been here a long time, you start to think of it as home."

[formersocialite]

"I suppose so," she mused quietly. "I'm going to head back inside before it gets too dark. How about you?"

[zone-of-truth.livejournal.com]

He shook his head before pointing back towards town. "There was something I have to pick up. But it was nice seeing you, Vivian."

[formersocialite]

"It was lovely seeing you as well. Take care," she offered him a smile before turning to leave, heading back inside the castle.
