Author's note: Once again, thanks to everyone who kindly took the time to review! We made 50 (really! *squeals*) reviews! You're making me giddy :D

Disclaimer: I don't own anything, I'm just using it to let my imagination run wild.

Melt

"Stop!"

Henry froze.

"What are you doing?" Charlotte demanded from somewhere behind him.

"I'm rather busy at the moment, dear, so if you could step out for just a moment—"

Footsteps sounded as Charlotte moved closer. Henry panicked, desperately trying to think of something that would make her leave. "Charlotte, I am dealing with a highly unstable chemical here!"

The steps froze, then gradually backed away. "What does it do?" she inquired with only a very slight tremor in her voice.

"It, uh…I think it might melt stone, but I'm not yet certain of that."

A quiet sigh accompanied her next words. "Very well, Henry. Do try to avoid killing yourself."

The door clicked shut.

Henry slumped in relief. He did not want Charlotte to see this latest project until it was finished. After an apologetic glance toward the door of his workroom, Henry bent over the figure on his bench.

The little automaton would play a lullaby when Henry finished it. And it would be no more than six inches high.

The perfect size for a child.

Mistletoe

Tessa stared at the plant hanging above her head. That's not possible, she thought. Summer has not even passed yet!

A quiet chuckle drifted to her ears. "Have you never seen it before? Or are you confused about the tradition?"

She tore her eyes away from the plant. "I am quite familiar with the tradition," she replied with a fair amount of indignation.

"Good."

He bent down and brushed his lips across hers.

It could hardly be counted as a kiss, really. Tessa almost didn't feel it at all. Dazed, she blinked at him as he pulled away and could not help wondering how such a light touch could make her toes tingle.

When she was certain her voice wouldn't squeak, she said the first thing that came to mind. "Where did you find it?"

He grinned. "We Nephilim have our ways, Miss Tessa."

So what do you think? Is that more of a Will trick or would Jem do it? I'm getting really good at these "pick your pairing" drabbles :) Anyway, the debate is in your capable hands, and the only way to let me know what you think is to review! Or if you have an account, you could send me a PM. Either way, I would love to hear your opinion!
