4th Floor Common Room - Saturday Evening

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

At the picnic yesterday, Rose had discovered a major, major flaw in Zayne's planning skills.

Namely he didn't know the problems that would obviously occur if you went through SHARK INFESTED WATERS in a little boat.

Obviously there needed to be a showing of Teeth Jaws to correct this issue. 

And that was what Rose was here to do.  She'd found a copy of the movie and was making popcorn (the old-fashioned way cause the microwave was evil).  Sure, she'd been promised snacks, but someone who had never watched Teeth might not know about the importance of popcorn.

"That part, too," Zayne said. He was probably the most earnest boy in the galaxy, it's true. "So, we have the food. You did bring the movie, right?"

"It's already in the DVD player," Rose said, picking up the bowl of popcoarn and some sodas. "Ready to see the Problem with Sharks?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Yes, I am," Zayne said. "I just wish I saw this before the cruise last spring. I could have been better prepared."

"You're just lucky there wasn't a shark attack," Rose agreed as she headed towards the couches. "You didn't have any plan at all."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"My plans don't work anyway," Zayne said, making room for the popcorn on the table before taking a seat on the couch. "I'd probably be better off having no clue and then just hoping I'd survive."

"Oh, so all that talk of stealing a plane and avoiding the volcano was just that?" she teased, finding a spot on the couch and putting the popcorn between them.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Pretty much," Zayne said. "Really, if I was on a tropical island with a volcano, I'd be the one who would find a way to accidentally set it off."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Clumsy?" Rose laughed. "Or just have really, really bad luck?"

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Would you believe both?" Zayne asked.

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Only for you," she teased, flicking the movie on.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Is that because you find me trustworthy or because I really seem that unlucky?" Zayne checked.

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Or maybe because I wanna mock you for it a lot," Rose pointed out. "So many choices."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Mock away," Zayne said. "I can take it."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Rose almost pouted as she looked at him. "But that takes all the fun away."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"It's not my fault I'm used to mocking," Zayne said. "I guess you're just going to have to find some other way to have fun."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"This is fine," she said easily. "Besides there are fake sharks coming up."

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"The shark is fake?" Zayne asked. "Well, that just ruins the movie for me already."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"Also? The Titanic sinks," Rose told him.

Thereby actually spoiling someone for that movie.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"What's the Titanic?" Zayne asked.

That joke probably worked better with someone from this planet.

Also with someone who made the Rose connection and followed it up.

Rose shook her head. "We're going to have to have a ton more movie nights, aren't we," she said.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I guess we're going to have to," Zayne said. "Or else I'm never going to understand anything you say."

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

"We could talk about classes and stuff instead," Rose said, making a face.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"Aww, I'm just teasing you," Zayne said, giving an apologetic smile. "But movie nights would actually be a good thing for me. It should help me understand the culture even better."

Rose chuckled, reaching to steal some chocolate. "On second thought, maybe I should just keep confusing you and never show you the references," she teased back.

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"I'd still gain valuable knowledge," Zayne said optimistically. And then he thought about it for a second. "Well, hopefully. You could just show me bad movies so I get nothing out of it. Except for confusing conversations with you, of course."
