On another occasion of Starlight celebration, Takome found herself sitting happily and blissfully underneath some mistletoe. She had her legs swinging on a bench - As she was too short to touch the ground - as she sturdied herself with her hands behind her, eyes closed as she took in the happy sights and sounds of the Starlight celebration.
A few moments later, however, another Au Ra would seat herself next to Takome, though the Inventress said nothing. It was not more than a few moments later that a child would run by and point at the mistletoe above them, laughing loudly. “Ooh! You gotta kiss, you’ve gotta kiss!” They’d exclaim, leaving Takome to drop her head into her lap in disbelief.
She turned her head slowly to the Raen, her face nothing short of worry, concern, and utter disbelief. “I’m s-so sorry,” She stuttered out as she leaned forward to plant her lips on the other’s, for nothing more or less than a second. When she pulled away, she felt her face flush as she dropped her head so her hair tactically fell in front of her face, sighing softly.
“S-Sorry again,” She said, her voice shaky. “I’m… Bad at these, er… Traditions.”
