Movie Night!

Who: Anyone who wants to come watch Dinosaur movies
Where: The Movie Theater, Fourth Floor
When: Friday April 8th, 8pm
Rating: PG-13 for Raptors
Summary: Jurassic Park Movie Night
The Story:



As soon as people start showing up in the theater, a gentle song begins playing in the background. They will see the obvious screen on the back wall, but what's more, the seating is surrounded by prehistoric foliage. And in that foliage, stands a hand full of herbivorous dinosaurs. They seem to be grazing on the vegetation without a care in the world. If someone reaches out to touch, the holograms will destabilize as their hand passes right through them only to form back together once the disruption is gone. Even the vegetation seems to be a holographic projection along with the imitated grass floor and night sky. In the four corners of the room, set into the ceiling, are small domes that flicker ever so slightly as they cast and regulate the projections. The occasional T-Rex roar will echo in the background of the music, making the small herd of Parasaurolophus look up with a fright, then lower their heads back down.

The lights dim and the movie begins, the noise surrounding the holograms quiets as to not interrupt from the movies, only to return during the short breaks between films.

If you stray over to the refreshments table, thick brush and tall grass will conceal a deadly pair of raptors lurking. Appropriately themed snacks are set up on the table, including a few sweet treats courtesy of Darcy (including jello shots).

Occasionally, an unwary snacker will come to a fright as one or both of said hunters will pop out of the grass with a sharp, chittering cry. Lucky for the unfortunate victim, the jumpscare is all there is to worry about. The tricky little raptors will slink back down into the grass and lie in wait for their next victim. Don't spill your popcorn, its just an illusion.

You're welcome.

That's what everyone tells me. [going against what is borderline programming when she's never done anything but be obedient, if not a bit arrogant (okay more than a bit), is still difficult for her. her heart is certain she made the right choice, but her head says differently and she's never had to reconcile the two before.

she presses the tips of her fingers together awkwardly.]
I... refused to allow the Earth to be destroyed. I even offered logical and sound counter-arguments for why I refused, but when my- [cringe] when Yellow Diamond refused to listen to reason, I insulted her.

[and there it is. the whole picture.]

You definitely made the right choice. [That much is easy to see and she clearly knows it. She said she doesn't regret her choice but-]

It's still hard, doing the right thing when you've been ordered to do something else. I'm not proud to say I don't always manage it myself. [He smiles faintly.] I know it can't help much but for what it's worth I think you're brave and a lot smarter than anyone who'd want you to do something terrible.

[uh-oh. here comes the blush. which on her makes her look a little more blue than green. she chuckles awkwardly, staring at the ground.] Wow. Thanks.

[mudballs, he's actually not a horrible annoying giant flesh-clod. still, it's hard to admit she's wrong, so she struggles for a second and then...] I suppose you can make a better second impression.

[OK, that's impossible not to smile at. He brightens further at the grudging near compliment, voice taking on a teasing note as he replies.]

See? What did I tell you? I'm lovable! [And in danger of ruining what good impression he's managed to make if he's allowed to keep talking. Fortunately for this budding maybe-friendship the lights begin to dim at that moment, the screen lighting up as the movie is about to start.]

Time to grab a seat I guess. [Alistair reaches out to briefly pet her cat.] I'll talk to you later.
