Um... I haven't been to the theatres while I was here, but I snagged a bunch of movies to watch at home.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Like?

I really have not paid attention to pop culture since the eighties. Barely.

Sp you're educating me here.

[ thank god talking about movies is like. her favourite thing ever ]

Uh, I tried to get the classics, but most of them were gone. Like the Star Wars series, Star Trek, James Bond, yadda yadda. But I got a bunch of B-stuff! Like The Evil Dead and Donnie Darko.

[so long as it moves away from talking about being 13 again]

Donnie what?

I think you're forgetting that I'm an old fart.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Er. Okay.

Donnie Darko's this movie about this guy who gets visions about the end of the world and a rabbit named Frank. And basically, Frank makes him do a whole bunch of bad stuff and everyone thinks he's crazy and it's generally this big mind-trip.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Huh.

Ever read Kafka?

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Uh... No.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Sounds like it'd be your kind of thing. Especially the Metamorphosis.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

I don't know... I don't really read.

Well, I do. Just not a lot.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

The girl who likes homework doesn't read a lot.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

I do!

Just not, like, a lot of books. I read biographies and journals and stuff, mostly.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Well.

Now I have something to work on with you that doesn't involve me talking about the superhero biz.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Oh, man... Can't I just watch my movies?

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Ever hear someone talk about how bad a movie was compared to the book it was made out of?

You should really read some books.

Anyway. I've got a proposition for you.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Oookaaay. Shoot.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Nothing serious. I just get tired of talking over internet crap. It's impersonal.

Lunch or dinner meetup, if you're willing to talk in person. Just take out.

And no, I'm not asking you to meet me in civvies. Keep your secret identity.

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Uh...

[ pause since she's thinking it over ]

Yeah, sure. Okay.

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Alright.

When's your schedule open?

[encrypted]

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Er... [ ANOTHER THINKING PAUSE ]

I can do tomorrow afternoon.

[encrypted]

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

Meet me on this rooftop at 3:00, then.

[GPS coordinates sent over.]

And name the kind of food you like. I'm paying.

[encrypted]

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Uhm. Pizza's goo --

Wait, no, no. I can pay.

[encrypted]

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

I make several hundred thousand dollars more than you.

I hardly spend any of it.

So yeah. I'm paying.

[encrypted]

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

[ muffled groan. FACE IN HANDS ]

Fine, fine. But I pay the next time around.

[encrypted]

[bigreveal.livejournal.com]

[Going to get the highest end goddamn pizza the entire city has to offer. Just because.]

Next time, huh?

See you tomorrow, then.

[encrypted]

[arakhnes.livejournal.com]

Yeah, see you.
