fun fact: in the original 14th-century romance "gawain and the green knight," gawain proves his honor not only by accepting and honoring the green knight's beheading challenge BUT ALSO returning stolen kisses to the green knight after he's kissed by the knight's wife.
he does this by kissing the green knight (disguised as a handsome fairy lord) repeatedly on the mouth.
just a Thought to consider now that there's an adaptation coming out :)
