[Dora still has her new year's tiara on, and a little noise maker in hand. She hasn't had much sleep, which could explain her irritability...]

So, here's something I've noticed... And I just-- let me know if I'm wrong, kay? But there's a lot of emphasis this time of year on bloody kissing traditions with all these holidays. It's kind of stupid, yeah? Mistletoe: Kiss. Midnight of the new year? OH, better have your loved one, or a complete stranger, to kiss!

It's ridiculous.

But the only person who made you kiss anybody was you? It's not like the mistletoe was enchanted or anything.

If it makes you feel better, I didn't kiss anyone on New Years either. And trust me, I do understand. I mean, I'm never sure if someone actually likes me or if it's just amokinetic resonance from being Aphrodite's child.

If you're not okay with being by yourself, don't be by yourself. There is a certain element of this that you have control over.

Well, no. And look, it was fun and all-- but the fact that wasn't anyone I even remotely had a chance with? Kind of frustrating.

I only have so much control over that... And being stuck here kind of sucks and really brings down the slim pickings to even slimmer ones.

Nobody here you fancy, I'm guessing?

Not that I've noticed? I mean, unless I've really overlooked some of the options.
