WHO: Astral, Kanaya
WHERE: MAC
WHEN: MARCH 16
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: A couple of friends.
FORMAT: Prose to begin, this was a little too long for action.
What did this measuring even entail? If Kanaya needed to know his height and weight, he could have easily told her. Well, actually, he should've offered, but the thought hadn't occur to him until much later.

Regardless, to make certain her trip wasn't for nothing, he ordered Crescent off of Netflix and purchased horrifically sweet energy drinks, popcorn, and candy the day before. He didn't care too much for popcorn (it often got stuck between his teeth), but the ritual of movie watching required it.

Speaking of Kanaya, she should be arriving soon... He collected Tweema, and returned him to his cage. Bomb and Shanks were a lot harder to corral into the bedroom, and he eventually gave up. The saying was right, it was impossible to herd cats. Tora was with Yuma, so Astral didn't have to worry about her.

Their living room looked somewhat presentable, considering two, occasionally three teenagers and a menagerie of animals live there. Not that he was extra fussy about it being clean or anything. That had absolutely nothing to do with how many times he plucked cat hair from the cushions or moved the couch pillows. He wasn't pacing about the living room because he was nervous either, he was simply practicing walking. And he only tugged on his sweater's sleeves because they were too short.

He had never invited a friend over to their apartment before.

I suppose we must to agree to disagree. [Hmphf]

I suppose they don't have to cut it entirely. [ this, to her, qualifies as a concession. ] But I should hope they at least bring it to a more satisfactory conclusion.

[Well, at least the movie's menu screen is finally on. Time to press play and watch it, right?

A convenient time skip, because seriously fuck trying to write actually watching a movie.

He's still engrossed with the screen even with the credits though, but he's finally speaking up at least.] That was...

[ especially when it's a fictional movie.

she leans back into the couch, resting her chin in one hand as she still processes what she's just seen. ]

It was...

Definitively Crescent.

It was wonderful!! [oh no he's so doki]

As I said, definitively. The two should be almost synonymous.

I was worried they might poorly prioritize the adaptation, but I'm actually rather satisfied with the results!

I can't wait for the other one to come out. [literally touching his face in joy]

But I'm afraid we'll have to. I'm not sure the sequel has even yet been assigned a release date!

Shouldn't that information be available online?

If it's been announced already, I would imagine it should be. But we're still waiting on the third book, as well.

Hmm... That's true, what if the third book explains an important happening in the second one? And if they made a movie without knowing that, it could be interpreted an entirely different way!

i hadn't considered that! Without close input from Moira March, they could ruin the whole thing without even knowing it!
