Hmm, hmm...that's so true. Bear Bank donates thousands yearly to charities, but they don't even stop to think about that sometimes...they just say it's "not enough." That's especially greedy.
[Granted, charity is a PR stunt and even Panda knows that.]
Perhaps. Charities themselves are pathetic in general. It only shows what little spine those people have - that they need to set up these organizations and unions all just to beg for more money. It's exceedingly insulting. [He doesn't care about the PR - he ignores the charities.]
[Tear had heard most of what had happened on the mission from Frey the night before, and though she spent the night with him and would do so for the next few days she felt she needed to return to House One for more than supplies.
After all, Frey wasn't the only one she knew who had gone to investigate the Iron Eye.]
[It was a quiet morning. Jade was sitting at the kitchen table, dressed simply in his robe as he mixed his tea, reflecting on everything that had transpired recently - and what he had learned from the tunnels.
Tear's absence had been noted, but he saw little need for concern. It seemed like she'd made a social visit, after all.]
[She's glad to see she didn't have to go seek him out in his room once she enters, though Jade might notice that she's studying him a bit more carefully than she might otherwise be. There weren't any noticeable signs of what had transpired during the mission on him...]
You seem refreshed for having just returned from the the harsh climate of a desert.
[For continuations of mistletoe event threads from here and elsewhere. If it's not too much trouble, include a link to the original thread for reference purposes!]
[Cliff froze, green eyes wide and staring at the man. The moment he could move he shoved Jade off, needlessly quick with his movements and backed away.]
[Perona's still expecting something to happen - maybe a delayed reaction or something, but is pleasantly surprised to find that she is safe from having her emotional state altered like it was the prior times she'd been trapped. It was a nice change to things definitely. Kissing people was annoying, but she could accept it after a bit of complaining and whining. Being forced to kiss a complete stranger when she wasn't in control of herself was inexcusable and unforgivable.
screwing up her face at the remark, Perona turns her scoff into an airy laugh. Quick and a little harsh. Is he joking?]
Stunned, more like. [The hand gripping her own is not turned down, and she allows the motion. In all honesty, it's refreshing having someone with a grain of class and wit in his head gracing her with a kiss than a toothless swine. Eugh...] Oi, oi, chivalry still exists...another thing to be stunned about.
[Making an attempt to step out of the mistletoe a moment after the kiss is placed to the back of her hand, the young woman even gives her gent's hand a tug as well, so he doesn't get stuck under there in her place or something.]
[He gives an amused grin at her reaction, spreading his arms in a shrug.]
Chivalry, you say? And here I thought that I was only taking the more hygienic route. [He says with a smirk.] Now, let's see if it was successful.
[His boots were made for walking, and that's just what he'll do, as he moves following Perona's touch. ...If the mistletoe is truly satiated, that is.]
[Well, that's certainly not at all what Ion was expecting. And right away, he starts flailing a little and laughing. Normally he might find this a little undignified, but right now all he can do is laugh.]
Don't worry, fon master. It will all be over soon.
[He keeps it up for a few moments more.]
Peta peta peta peta peta peta...
[He lets it die down, and then? As fastly as he can manage, he lowers his face and presses his lips against Ion's for a moment. Then he pulls away swiftly.]
[It wasn't exactly comfortable to be waking on a hard unyielding surface. In fact, what was she doing laying down?
B'Elanna quickly sat up, her eyes wide open as she looked around, startled and disoriented. This wasn't engineering, this wasn't even Voyager. She had never seen this place before. From the looks of it, she was on a table in some sort of... old fashioned workshop? This was just getting stranger by the moment.
Suddenly she realizes there is a dull pain coming from her back. Reaching at the source, she's stunned when her fingers brush against... feathers?]
What the hell?!
[Leaping from the table she tries to look behind her at the foreign objects protruding from her back. A shout of pain rising from her throat when she tries to tug on them.]
[It's not unusual for Jade to spend long amounts of time holed up in the workshop, conducting his research and compiling his notes, especially during times of low Malnosso activity. The only distraction lately had been Luke's arrival and helping him get sorted - and dealing with the concept of Luke truly being alive again.
Currently, he was apprehensive about the possibility of some manner of annual love shift, and he had been cross-referencing notes made from all records of previous love shifts that he could find in preparation.
He had left the workshop just for one moment when he returned to find a woman lying on the table. Immediately, he started to take in all visual cues of the newcomer's identity and trying to assess if there was any threat level. It seems clear enough at least that she's a New Feather - and very likely not precisely human.
[Jade knew the B'Elanna was fairly sharp and worth keeping an eye on, but he was still mildly surprised to be approached regarding a meeting of some kind. He's not sure if it has to do with the missions to the other enclosures, but considering that it's the most recent event of note for the enclosure, it's the first thing on his mind.
He steps into the tea shop wearing his normal military uniform and a sly smirk. As he took his seat at the table, he greeted her airily.]
Good day, B'Elanna. I trust you've made yourself comfortable?
[Today was a very important day and Anise had very important things to do.]
[Well, maybe not very important, but they seemed important enough to her! The house was out of food, and she needed a buddy to go food shopping with. She hadn't gotten to see Luke a lot lately, and he usually didn't have anything to do this time of the day, so he seemed like the best choice! Not only that, but if she went with Luke, she could usually bully him into going to some of the other stores later with her, too! And then finishing off the day at the cafe.]
[Only, Anise was having some trouble finding the redhead. He was usually in his room around now, but nobody answered when she knocked. She couldn't seem to find him anywhere else in the house, either. Luckily, it wasn't too long before she ran into the Colonel! If anybody knew where he was, it would be him, right? She'll happily approach him and try to get his attention.]
Hey, Colonel! Have you seen Luke today? I can't find him.
[And they had very important plans together. That he didn't know about yet, of course.]
[Jade made it his business to keep tabs on his housemates and their respective wellbeings. So it was early in the morning when he realized that Luke had disappeared. He was waiting for a moment to break the news to the entire house. As far as he knew, Luke hadn't made many outside friends this time around, so there was no need for a full announcement.
He looks down towards Anise with a vague frown, his hands in his pockets. Well, it looks like someone will be finding out before the others.]
Anise. I'm afraid that there's unfortunate news on that front.
Perona know what the clothing is, and she blinks, then bristles with a soft bit of red beginning to color her cheeks and nose.]
My stuffed animal! Bearsy is my stuffed animal! What the hell kind of question--how could you even ask me that?! Pervert! [SHE IS NOT LOOKING FOR NIGHTWEAR, JESUS MAN.]

[Action | 07/30 | Tea Shop]
She had sent Jade a message, wanting to meet with him. Her reasons were vague, but the agreement was to meet here at the tea shop.
So here she is, waiting patiently with a notebook in her hand.
What she wouldn't give for a PADD, so that she didn't have to actually write stuff down.
Jade will find her sitting at one of the tables, looking perhaps just a little uncomfortable at having to sit on the floor. People actually do this?]
