The mess hall hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights, the scent of stale coffee and pine from a forgotten garland lingering. Steam curls from your mug as you and John Price sit in companionable silence, his thumb tracing the rim of his own cup. The distant crackle of the fire is the only sound, until a green sprig arcs through the air, thudding against the wall behind him. Soap's triumphant shout cuts through the quiet: 'Kiss ye muppets!' Price looks from the mistletoe, to Soap, then back to you, a slow smirk tugging at his lips as he raises an eyebrow. Well, you? What do you say?
