Hello :)

It has been brought to my attention about the existence of a Public Kiss List, and I think that this is a wonderful idea! After all, kissing is an enjoyable pastime and should be partaken in enthusiastically and often! But I know that there are people who are more, how do you say, conservative aboard, and for that I would like to offer my services!

Not as a kissee, at least for the men (désolée!), but as a coordinator!

During Mr Bishop's soiree last week, I could not help but notice that sparkling pull of chemistry between people. I think it sometimes takes another person to point out what is obvious to others.

For example! Casper and Lola would be fantastique, non? Or Domingo and Jax! Such chemistry!

I am happy to help make arrangements!

We’re doing a kissing booth to solicit donations of books and games and whatnot for the unVeiled folks (children included) we’re relocating.

[delilahs]

Soliciting donations from who?

[twinstudies]

From like all of us?

[delilahs]

I don't know if the prospect of kissing me is actually going to convince anyone to donate

[twinstudies]

I mean, the way I anticipate things playing out, people will be more interested in the donating than the kissing. The kissing is sort of a more thematic gimmick to amuse ourselves on the side. Probably most folks will do air kisses.

And I feel like a bunch of people would want to air kiss you! Or more!

[delilahs]

I don't think "a bunch of people want to air kiss you" is as good of a compliment as you think it is.

And I don't know if I'm fully sold on the gimmick though I appreciate the spirit of something cute and whimsical to accompany donations

[twinstudies]

Oh, well if I was going to compliment you, I’d have said something else. I was just responding to your expressed doubt.

It’s supposed to be Valentine’s Day themed, is the idea!

[delilahs]

I don't know. Maybe. Who have you convinced already?

[twinstudies]

Well, I convinced Nim. And Nim convinced Sefi. And I think Jamie is in, but maybe in the wings?

But listen, if the concept is feeling wonky, forget I asked and I’m sorry for the wonkiness! I only want people to have a laugh and maybe do something nice for the people who were just unVeiled. Not trying to mess with anyone, honestly.

[delilahs]

A very solid group!

And no, you're okay! You don't need to apologize. I'm just feeling a little self-conscious, that's all, but that's not on you

Delilah/Luke

[twinstudies]

Are we okay? [...] You can tell me if I'm being an asshole and verbally kill me, I won't do anything. Other than verbally die as required.

Delilah/Luke

[delilahs]

Of course we're okay! I'm flattered you thought to ask me, but I'm just not sure I'm entirely comfortable with the idea. No need to die, verbally or otherwise

the whole kissing booth thing's weird, but i'm sure plenty of people'd be into kissing you generally.

cade.

[delilahs]

I don't know, they're not exactly banging down my door which is fine! I'm not really looking to kiss a bunch of people so it doesn't bother me. But yes, I don't know, publicly talking about the people I would hypothetically kiss is one thing because it's all fantasy and no pressure. If something happens, great, but that's not the point. Sitting at a kissing booth and hoping people are interested is less fun because it's too real, and it seems like a recipe for feeling awkward.

[murphyy]

it sounds awkward as shit.

you don't wanna kiss people just 'cause they decided they wanna kiss you anyway. you wanna kiss people you wanna kiss that also wanna kiss you.

cade.

[delilahs]

Yes. Exactly. And I don't need the spectacle of it adding more pressure. The idea is very well-intentioned though

cade.

[murphyy]

sure, but they can do it without you. [...] don't really get the appeal of it, but i'm sure some people do.

cade.

[delilahs]

I don't either, honestly. I wouldn't want anyone to feel obligated to kiss me either though the volunteers are able to decide whether they want an air kiss, a cheek kiss, or a proper kiss.

cade.

[murphyy]

it's a good call not to do it.

[highvolt]

hey babe 💖

Live.

[delilahs]

I'm good, I promise

Live.

[highvolt]

you sure? we could cuddle up and watch something stupid.

Live.

[delilahs]

I mean I never say no to that

but really I'm fine. a kissing booth just seems like it could be really awkward and potentially uncomfortable and I would rather just avoid it
