Sorrel takes a quick step back in surprise, fizz ears flattening against fizz head for a moment “o-oh my- please, do try to be a bit more careful, are you alright?” Fi looks more concerned about the person, looking over them to see if they’re steady on their feet. “T-try not to uh, do that again? Please?”
It is what the title says. Have fun, go nuts, and be safe.
(I hope they/them was right? I went off what was in their bio. If not lmk and I will correct it!)
Leo only turned around to figure out where the noise was coming from but ended up with a Sorrel's face planted on his. Oh great. At least he managed to stop the cat's fall, he guessed. Still, this was just slightly uncomfortable. With a barely suppressed sigh he put them back on their feet, holding onto their shoulders until he was sure they could stand on their own and would not stumble into him again. "Are you alright?" he asked, sounding surprisingly calm. The urge to wipe his mouth with the back of his hand was strong but his manners were stronger. Not that that would have been a weird reaction after accidentally kissing a stranger, but they seemed distraught enough already and he did not really want to add to that.
While Leo did not mind kissing strangers, especially if they were cute, doing it by accident usually ended up being uncomfortable for both parties involved. So it was surprising, to say the least, when the other made no attempt to pull away whatsoever. Though it made it easier to make sure both of them were steady on their feet before he let go of Louis, briefly noticing how frail he was.
He inhaled to ask if he was alright and to apologize for this accident, but paused when the (seemingly) young man spoke instead. This encounter really got more confusing by the second... "You- what?" Leo furrowed his brows, for a brief moment wondering if he had heard him right, but there was no doubt about it when Louis continued. "Usually chances of this happening are rather slim..." the host sighed then shook his head. "It's fine... could've been a lot worse, couldn't it?" the corner of his mouth curving upwards indicating that he found it somewhat funny, after the initial confusion had disappeared. "Not sure what about this you'd consider an 'interesting experience' though." It was for sure not the first thing that came to mind for Leo, but an interesting description, he supposed. "I hope your books also tell you that normally people should buy you a drink first," for some reason he doubted that... not that he read a lot of romance novels, but the current ideals seemed to stray from basic human decency. A glance at his watch urged him to get going, yet- "You know what?", Leo fished a simple business card with his name and the club's address out of his pocket and handed it to Louis, "...in case you ever want that drink."
It took longer for Louis to realize that the kiss had been accidental, than he was proud of. In his defense, the people of this time seemed to act on their affections freely, so it was often hard for him to determine what was considered the norm, and what was inappropriate. Well, that and he had been too distracted by the touch of the other’s lips to think much of anything.
The expression on the man’s face said it all, though—this had been a mishap, nothing more. Of course, why would a person this handsome and elegant be interested in him?
“Hmm. I think I read about something like this in a romance novel before.” Reading it hadn’t been his choice; it had been a way to appease the Library from switching his reading material whenever he wasn’t looking. “I didn’t realize that it could happen in real life, though.” And to him, at that. “As uncomfortable as it might have been for you, I should thank you. You’ve given me an interesting experience.”
Mr.Swirly was chasing after a dimensional anomaly. He was so focused that he didn’t see Myriad. He ran into Myriad and accidentally kissed him. Mr. Swirly spat out some curse words in code and shoved Myriad out of the way. He had no time for romance! The anomaly was getting away!
As an anomalous dimension hopper, Cali was quite used to running into various cleansers of anomalies. However he had never met one quite so… sketchy.. and so close. Like, accidental kiss close.
Recounting the events Cali concluded it was most definitely his fault. He was being chased by the swirly being, and on a whim and suddenly stopped and turned on his heel, deciding to do what he usually does and talk his way out of the situation. The swirly man was of course running full throttle, and there was nothing either of them could do to stop their faces from clashing into the titular accident kiss.
sort of a kiss, anyway. California wasn’t sure if the being had lips. Despite the lack of facial features, it seemed… noticeably more angry than it was before, which was definitely still angry.
California decided that just running might be the right course of action this time.
Charlotte had been tailing one of her targets, learning their routines and where they frequented. The sidewalk was packed today, however, and it was difficult for her to keep an eye on them while simultaneously dodging all the people around. The further downtown she got, the more people there were until she ended up colliding with one person.
Charlotte was quick to pry the person off her, barely registering that they'd shared an accidental kiss. The man seemed to be just as stupefied as her. She noticed a lawyer's badge on him, hoping that wouldn't mean seeing him again in a court of law. More so, however, despite him wearing sunglasses, she could have sworn she saw pink eyes...
It was a particularly windy day, the sort that could sway Caelestis' balance ever so slightly with ease were he not careful, that had him regretting ever so slightly the convenient timing for a peaceful stroll through a particularly slopy forest. And that in regards to care, he perhaps had not held enough so, for a particular gust tilting his form backwards midway up a hill brought his arm to grip at the nearest form available, succeeding in only pulling the unfortunate, unexpected man forward to fall along with him.
Who? What?? Before he knew it, a faint—or not so faint—feeling smacked against his lips, accompanied by the soft yet bristly texture of facial hair brushing against him. Only another mutual small stumble followed before his other hand at last caught a generously angled branch, gripping tightly enough to somehow prevent them both from falling back against the terrain entirely.
One regrettable disaster had fortunately been prevented it seemed, and yet Caelestis could only stare in shock at the unfamiliar face that had somehow crashed against his. Bright teal eyes… and a great deal of ginger.
He pulled away shortly, although with a delay still that may have done little to help any awkward aftermath. Unbothered himself as he particularly was at an accidental kiss with a mystery man, one could not assume what the other party's thoughts may be, of course. "I… Ah. Sorry for that," he chuckled sheepishly. An odd a mix of amusement and apologetic guilt that appeared not the easiest to balance. "And… that. I suppose you'd intended to assist there, and I... nearly pulled you into quite an unfortunate tumble instead. But rather, one exceptional stroke of fate—isn't it?" Fortunately, Zach didn't seem the sort likely to take any great offense at either of the unexpected events—light-hearted and approachable, if anything—and so he smiled in relief. Though it was difficult not for his eyes to trail curiously up to the similarly ginger pair of… wolf ears? He supposed it could explain what one other than him could be doing in a place like this, particularly in the current less than welcoming weather.
Glancing back to the werewolf, still not quite at a most natural conversational distance, of course, Caelestis attempted to steady his footing just a bit more securely. "Nevertheless, you have my thanks as well." Ah, what was one to say after an accidental kiss but apologize and flirt? Or simply run for one's life in some occasions. Never did he grow any great deal less clueless.
v AHHHHHH I LOVED THAT
Quiet walks through the forest at night was certainly something Takeo did often. How long he'd walk and where'd he go depended on his mood and whatever had crossed over into his territory. By now most other demons completely avoided him, deciding the village he protected was not worth the trouble to hunt in as they'd always end up strung up and left for the sun to finish in the morning. Occasionally he'd find a lost soul, and at first they'd be absolutely terrified of the large man with pointy teeth and a predatory like gaze who appeared from thin air near them. Some would run, and he would not chase, even if he wanted to just a bit. Others would freeze in fear with wide eyes until he laughed and offered to bring them back to his village so they had some place to stay for the night.
Takeo paused as a scent hit his nose, belonging to something he was not familiar with. It smelled similar to a human, although there was something a bit... off about it. It was a sweet smell that reminded him of the wildflowers that grew in the back of his home, the ones his nieces would often pick and make flower crowns out of to give to him. His body followed the smell, a curiosity overcoming him. He soon came across the source of the smell, a masculine like figure standing under the full moonlight in a small clearing of trees.
He paused for a moment, taking in the odd stranger for a moment, his dark red hair reminding him of a spider lily. While normally those flowers were said to signify death and goodbyes, the person in front of him felt like anything other than a threat.
And so Takeo approached, opening his mouth to speak just as the person turned. His arm reached out instinctively as Caelestis stumbled back, perhaps using a bit too much force as he had expected them to weigh just a bit more. This caused Takeo to pull them all the way to them, his feet getting tripped up on one another as he fell back, taking poor Caelestis with him.
It happened quickly, Takeo feeling his back hit the ground, and them he felt the sensation of something against his lips, his eyes going wide as he realized he may have just accidentally kissed them. His eyes went wide as he stared up at them, his one hand on his hip quickly being removed as he placed both his hands up by his head in surrender. His surprise melted away into a relaxed smile, although a blush was dusting his cheeks, "apologies. I promise I'm usually not this clumsy." He said with a small laugh, his eyes darting up to meet Caelestis's, "I also promise I don't go around kissing random people at night." He added in, certainly embarrassed about the predicament he had caused them both to be in.
He's far too into his head. Several people in his life had told him that; ranging from a high school teacher, to his father, to even the therapist he had been seeing every week for the past two months. It was observation that observational people detected within him quickly, using it often against him. Personally, he didn't find the clouds of his thoughts or head to be inherently negative. Sure, a little more than half of them were berating to either himself or someone else; but all his ideas stemmed from the waves of daydreaming. It's how he became a paramedic in the first place, and ultimately... how he also failed that job a little after he obtained it. But still, though that hadn't worked out in the way he imagined it, it'd kept him safe from further trauma. His anxious, wandering mind had thought all about the grief he might feel or the things he might see and quickly hurried him out of a dangerous place, no?
He sighs as he walks down a street in the midst of the midnight hours. Being a janitor was tough work, not only because the everyday, constant task of cleaning.. but because the hours. He woke up near nine am, then went to work at ten. Then, he spent the day vacuuming, disinfecting, scrubbing and managing every motel room there was up until twelve am. The shifts were long and exhausting, but for someone like him? The job was better than having nothing. He couldn't hold anything else; no other business would ever allow for him to disappear weeks whenever he needed to go to the hospital. Which was.. more frequent these days.
As he turns the corner of the street to his apartment, he instantly walks right into someone. They're taller than him, but apparently had been looking down whilst he had been blankly staring up at the blackened sky. In a brief, fleeting moment; their lips somehow pass against one another in an obscure and unexpected way. Though it was only less than a simple peck, he finds himself feeling nothing but sheer embarrassment for even existing in this very moment (or at all, really). Grey eyes scurry to the actual features of Takeo's face and he mentally flinches when he meets the strange, sunset hue of his stare. One of his hands shift and he realizes in the moment that he'd actually grabbed onto the taller when colliding against him. This couldn't get any worse.
His nose takes a dive as he hides his face away by looking straight at the ground. Strands of hair help to curtain his expression, which was of sheer shock and discomfort. He isn't sure what to say and his words begin to churn around in his head, making it even more difficult to think. "I've gotta go." he ends up muttering as he quickly sweeps around Takeo and starts a jog down the street.
God, he just wanted to die.
@np: please don't worry about length with me! i do not mind shorter responses!
Something about the blank smile drawn on Smiley's bag felt fitting for this moment. It was, after all, very rare that someone would want to kiss him, especially with the bag on, and especially as he was stepping out of a hotel room. Ever the optimist, he used this to his advantage and grabbed Dallas's wrist to keep him from running.
"Oh my, oh my. My, my, my. :) What a strange way to say hello. :)" He tilted his head over at the cleaning cart. "Ah. My friend won't need any cleaning today. :) She's so very exhausted from all the fun things I showed her. :) I'd really appreciate it if you'd let her rest. :)" The surprise from the collision caused him to leave the door just a crack open, where pools and and smiley faces all in blood covered the room.
Smiley quickly blocked Dallas's view and leaned in closer until their faces were inches apart, the blood coating him giving him a metallic scent. "Say, now that I'm done visiting her, would you like some company? :) It'll be so much fun! We can play games in between cleaning rooms. :) I bet we could get more people to join in, too. :)" He squeezed his wrist tighter. "What do you say, friend? :)"
Cecil was so tired and drained that he didn’t even bother to watch his step. He tripped and stumbled around sluggishly. You would’ve thought he was drunk but no it was just his shadow friend slowly getting upset. Cecil tripped on a curb and stumbled forward. Smiley was running away from cops and spotted the clumsy dude. He has attempted to catch his fall. He succeeded but accidentally kissed Cecil. At least the paper bag on his Face did. Cecil was taken by surprise and stepped back to look at Smiley. “Oh uhh T-thanks..” He could barely form words and stop the blushing. He couldn’t even take his eyes off the sus dude. Cecil stood there like a doofus simping for a guy that had a much bigger body count then him
