is there something behind your love of Mentalist Lift Kissing?!
With the qualifier that we've established that I have a memory like a sieve about The Mentalist, I don't think it was anything specific, just that The Lift, like The Sofa, The Bullpen and The Boss's Office was an important location in CBI. So important they kept a version in the FBI office. The lift was the location of a lot of UST (or tension, anyway) between Jane and Lisbon, so I think I just decided that that tension should be solved there by kissing. Hence it became a thing.
I've been trying to think if lifts are especially meaningful to me - if there was a couple in a lift somewhere that I imprinted on - but I don't think there is beyond it being a contained, but usually moving, space, where two people can be alone for a while.
ETA: I think Lisbon was additionally cross that he went to the Grand Canyon without her, as part of his 'just go' life plan.
