Really should know better.

Characters: Fionna, Open
Date:December 9th
Summary: Mistletoe mischief! Also, I had just missed the one last year:(
Warnings: None yet.



A gloom had come over many of her friends, and it was bringing Fionna down...almost. After all, the weather was changing, and there was something about the way the weather had changed that made Fionna feel happy. If her friends weren't going to be happy, she could at least try for them, right?

And what was the best way to do that but to try to get into a festive mood? Fionna was in the gardens, putting flowers in her hair, her hair combed neatly and flowing a little longer than usual out of her hat. It would have surprised even Cake back home: she had never looked this primped up.

Of course, this would have actually been a good idea to look at Alice's post, but like most alerts, Fionna had missed them and was walking around the gardens, seeing what food she could gather in the treefort later. True, she was really only there half the time, but you never knew what you would need later, right?

Comments

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu was doing her daily patrol of the Gardens, looking for any trouble and mischief. She spots Fionna walking around, and decides to check in with her. Besides... she may be able to help her with problem.

She flies down and lands behind Fionna. "Food gathering?"

[fionna_time]

Fionna looked up and saw Reimu, giving a wave.

"Hey Reimu! Yeah, I'm pretty much just doing that right now, before it gets too cold, you know? What are you up to?"

[nekomikoreimu]

She walks up towards Fionna, nodding at her.

"Doing my daily patrol. Have you seen anything suspicious?"

[fionna_time]

Fionna shook her head. "Nah man. Should there be something weird happening? I haven't checked the messages yet, sorta been busy the last few days!"

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu looks around her as she reaches Fionna, like she is looking for something. "Mistletoe is back. You need to be careful about what is around you at all times during this month."

[fionna_time]

"Missle toe? Are you making fun of me?" Fionna asked, looking dubious. "What the heck is that supposed to be?"

[gentlecuteside]

Amamiya spotted Fionna from above. Travel by treetop was most definitely the most convenient way to go, if you could manage it. Nothing underfoot to trip you up, nothing in your way.

She landed directly behind Fionna, and wrapped her arms around her waist. A basket full of fruit, fresh from the Orchard, was hanging from one of her forearms.

"Guess who," she said slyly.

[fionna_time]

Whoa! The last thing she was expecting was someone to drop down on her. She would have been fready to fight if that form and the hold hadn't been so familiar, with that smell. Fionna grinned, and then saw the basket of fruit.

"No way! Where'd you get those? The birds give 'em to you?"

[gentlecuteside]

"I went picking, actually," she said, pulling back from the hug. "It may be the last crop of the season. I'm not sure what I'll make with it, but I'm sure I can think of something."

[fionna_time]

"Awesome, that's the same reason I'm pickin' the flowers!" Fionna said. "Well, mostly the reason. I couldn't really tell nobody else, but, um..."

She brought out an open petal with bright blue tips, a pinkish middle and a dark green toward the end.

"...I was looking to get you a really nice one too!"

[gentlecuteside]

Amamiya accepted it with a smile. "Why thank you," she said, sticking it into her hair. "How's it look?"

[fionna_time]

Fionna looked at her, grinning shyly. "Really nice, it kinda matches with your hair. But most stuff looks good on you anyway, you know?"

[swarmoflies]

Sette spotted Fionna picking flowers. The smell of the things made her head swim - the curse of an oversensitive nose. But the smell was fainter than it had been in days gone by. Winter was coming, and the plants seemed to know it.

"What're you up to?" she asked as she sauntered up, as casually as she could.

[fionna_time]

"Pickin' flowers!" Fionna said, waving to her. "They're not really gonna last much longer with how cold its getting, so I'm going to take some home. They probably won't last long anyway, but it'll be cool to see them in the house.

How you been?"

[swarmoflies]

"Good riddance to 'em," Sette said, wrinkling her nose. "I been alright. Weather's gettin' colder but now I know how to make meself some clothes so I should be fine."

[fionna_time]

Fionna shrugged, but continued picking, grinning. "When did you learn how to make clothes?Somebody teach you how to sew?"

[swarmoflies]

"I always knew how to stitch. No, I meant with the magical dirt crap."

[fionna_time]

"Oh, cool! I sorta had to learn, so I could take care of my clothes. I got rip and tears in 'em all the time! You can only do so much though..."

She might just need to make some magical clothes herself, actually.

Touching base

[fionna_time]

Fionna had fought monster. Demons. Ice Queens. Gone to the world of the dead. The Nightosphere.

And this? This scared the crap out of her.

It was one thing to talk about doing something, but going through with it meant that you had to be ready for anything, and Fionna, for now, was winging it. She had made sure the Tree Fort was clean enough, that they had a nice little diner, and and even lit a few candles.

Now? She had to wait.

[gentlecuteside]

Amamiya was if anything even more anxious about it. Everything had to be perfect. She'd showered twice, just to be sure, and wore her best dress - a modest blue number.

Realistically, this wasn't such a big deal. But that was hard for her to grasp emotionally.

She knocked at the door of the tree fort, although she knew full well she could just walk in.

[fionna_time]

Fionna perked up, although her leg were totally feeling like jelly right now. Darn it, this would be PERFECT if Cake or even Marceline were around to coach her! She didn't want to lump this up, not with how different they were!

But if there was anything the blond was good at, it was presenting herself casually and at least looking like she could keep her cool. She opened the door, ready to greet Amamiya with a casual "what up?"

Of course, seeing her with her air down, dress flowing, looking so put together the words died in her throat. She swallowed, then gave the girl a smile.

"Hey," she said, grinning in spite of herself. "You look amazing."

[gentlecuteside]

"Oh please," Amamiya said, slipping inside while deflecting her embarrassment, "we're well past the point of flattery now, I think."

She was pleased, nonetheless, to hear that her look was so effective. She had worked at it.

[fionna_time]

"I dunno about that," Fionna said, planning to be a bit bolder now that the girl was in the house. "What kinda girlfriend would I be if I didn't tell you how doing stuff like this makes me all weak in the knees?"

It was true, not that Fionna was going to go falling all over herself complimenting. After all, she looked pretty good herself. She had put on a rather nice dress, tied a ribbon around her neck and was even (GASP) wearing shoes! Her hair was still under the hat, but if Amamiya pulled that off, she would see how much care Fionna put in making it look nice.

"Come on, we have some pretty good stuff to eat! I made a really neat salad and something called a quiche and everything!"

[gentlecuteside]

"Oh my, how fancy," Amamiya joked, moving towards the kitchen. "I'm surprised."

She had been expecting...big bloody steaks or something.

[fionna_time]

Fionna was forgetting all about Kanako right now. If she could have stepped outside of herself, she'd be shocked that she would even dare do something like this. Once she heard the plea from Amamiya thought, she knew there was little to no chance of her stopping. Instead, she caressed her breast, rubbing her fingers and nail all along the soft underside before flocking her tongue over the nipple quickly, then with long solid strokes, wrapping a possessive free arm around the girl.
