MISTLETOE MEME

Ah, the shameless (shameful?) classic. Happy holidays, Holly Heights.



How it works:
➜ Your character is going about their business when suddenly... oop, mistletoe.
➜ Double oop, someone else walked under at the same time.
➜ Maybe this is usual mistletoe and they can just joke about it and awkwardly shuffle off.
➜ Oooooor maybe it's cursed mistletoe and they can't leave until they kiss each other.
➜ Good luck with that!

Yeah, I figured you'd understand. It's a lot of pressure on us too, you know. We're going to be the new defending third years. We're going to be looked at to maintain the crown the third years handed to us.

[ Teshima knew Aoyagi could push though. Aoyagi wasn't like he was. If anyone could succeed Tadokoro-san, it would be him. With the three first years and Aoyagi it would be hard enough, but then there was himself and the final member they have to find.

In the end he hummed, thinking further on Aoyagi's thoughts.]

Imaizumi's also going to have to learn to work with the new team.

[ New team...That was a good point. He brought up his fingers, counting out each of the members of Sohoku he would have put on the team. He, Teshima, Imaizumi, Onoda, Naruko....there was at least 1 missing if they wanted a six man team. Who was their sixth? One of the other second years? Were they ready? No way it could be...No...there was no way... ]

I don't really know, but...

[ he reached over to Aoyagi's hand and put away one of the count to leave it at four. He wasn't looking at Aoyagi, looking forward with a pleasantly calm expression. ]

We'll need our climber, sprinter, and our ace. You're for sure the other sprinter, but as for me...

If I'm good enough to enter those numbers is something we'll still have to see.

[ Aoyagi's troubled expression didn't get any better. That Teshima wouldn't include himself in that lineup was troubling at best. He was the captain, of course he would ride with them. How could he not? That seemed unheard of.

He shook his head and held up one finger. He pointed it at Teshima, and then at himself and changed it not from one finger, but to two. If Teshima didn't ride then there was no way Aoyagi was riding. They were a team of two no matter what. They'd both worked hard to get where they were, and Aoyagi refused to see Teshima give up so easily. If Teshima wasn't going to believe in himself, then Aoyagi would just have to do it for him. ]

The truth of the situation can't be denied. Of that collective, I'd be the weakest.

Of course, that doesn't mean I'm going to just resign something like this over to someone else. Tadokoro-san entrusted us with his will, and I wouldn't leave you to take all of that on by yourself. I'll be working to improve enough to be someone deserving of a Sohoku number.

[ Teshima takes the position of 'average' well, he thinks. It's not something to be ashamed of. If someone talented wants to try and replace him, it better be prepared to fight him for it. ]

You wanna call this one done? I have a feeling this will come up actually in game at some point XD

[silentwheel]

[ That made Aoyagi smile. He'd hate to see the day Teshima just rolled over and accepted defeat.

He put his hand in a fist over his own heart first and then touched it to Teshima's chest. They both had Tadokoro's will and they would both carry it in the next Inter High, of that Aoyagi was sure. ]

Yup ....it sure will......

[karaokeking]

As long as we don't hit any more mistletoe on the way we'll be alright.

[ He laughed, but he was entirely serious about the mistletoe thing. It was embarrassing. ]
