"Hi, everyone." Peter waved at them with a rueful smile. "Sorry about last week, but I didn't speak English. Glad to see we managed anyway. This week I wanted to try for something definitely adult, but unfortunately the only things I was able to find were all teen movies. At least they're not our teen lives? Hopefully this one will make sense. I'm told it's very important to pop culture."

Seivarden, who no longer glitters, thanks to Kanan.

Arrive/mingle!

[2_old_for_this]

There is, as usual, plenty of popcorn and drinks.

Re: Arrive/mingle!

[uncertain_dume]

Popcorn, check. Coke, check. Kanan thankful that he didn't have to work the DVD player this week? Also check.

Ahh, this was much better. Proper size, proper age, proper amount of confidence to actually talk to people, and proper knowledge of what a movie was.

As if she actually knew what a movie was prior to coming to Fandom in the first place.

Kaidan arrived and checked the room for familiar faces. They were all familiar - this week. He was a little relieved. Spotting Amaya, he walked over to check the weather, so to speak. "Hey, Amaya. You doing ok?"

Re: Arrive/mingle!

[special_rabbit]

If anyone asked, Amaya would deny that faint blush until that red in her face turned blue. Either that, or she'd insist she just had a little bit of her shyer, gawkier self hanging around.

"Hey, Kaidan," she said, clearing her throat a little, nodding her head, lifting a hand. "Better this week than last, I can tell you that much, but I'd also reckon that's just about how everyone here's feeling. How 'bout you?"

Enjoy the film!

[2_old_for_this]

Or be really confused. Anyone? Anyone?

Re: Enjoy the film!

[uncertain_dume]

... Somebody was sitting over here, relating way too hard with that bit about stealing the car.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[2_old_for_this]

"Are you understanding enough of this?" Peter asked.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[uncertain_dume]

"There's some family dynamic stuff that is making roughly no sense at all," Kanan shared, "but wanting to get out of school? Making off with the vehicle they really shouldn't have? Yeah, I'm following this just fine."

Re: Enjoy the film!

[firstofitskind]

Actually, this was clearing up more than a few vague pop culture references Liam had encountered before. So pretty much the opposite of confusion!

Re: Enjoy the film!

[1000yearstoolate]

Seivarden was confused. "Are there many movies about kids wanting to skip school?"

It seemed like a strange subject. Still, she kept watching, keeping her own popcorn bowl in her lap.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[2_old_for_this]

"I don't know," Peter confessed. "I think it's a pretty normal thing for teenagers, though."

Admittedly, he mostly knew this from pop culture, but still.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[1000yearstoolate]

"Yes, so are teenagers oversleeping in the mornings, I haven't seen any movies about that," she said, then shrugged. "Just curious. I've actually seen an entertainment once about a group of teenagers crashing a space shuttle. It was terrible."

She put a few popcorns in her mouth.

Was that a small, injured little sound escaping Amaya when the car went out the window? Maaaaybe.

Maybe she didn't know cars, but she knew machines, and she knew machines that were very important and practically like a child to a person, so she felt that one on a level as if it had been the Crumbler itself going out that window.

And then she looked a little pensive. Sure, she didn't know cars...but maybe she should start to get to know cars...

Re: Enjoy the film!

[2_old_for_this]

"You okay?" Peter asked.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[special_rabbit]

"That poor car..." said Amaya, in a very, very small voice indeed.

Re: Enjoy the film!

[spectre_alenko]

Kaidan might be trying not to wince a little, as the teenage rebellion in this film hit a little close to home. He'd never stolen any cars, but he'd ditched school enough. Heck, he'd thought he was ditching all last week.

Talk to Peter

[2_old_for_this]

Who's a bit bemused about the teenage thing. He doesn't remember the eighties being that fun.

Re: Talk to Peter

[spectre_alenko]

Kaidan hadn't seen Peter since last week, and the week had been crazy enough he hadn't had time to look him up to render the apology he felt that he owed. Movie night gave him the chance. After his chat with Amaya, he made his way over. "Hey, Peter. Uh, sorry for being kind of a dick last week. I could understand you, and I should have made a better effort to make it reciprocal."

Re: Talk to Peter

[2_old_for_this]

"You could?" Peter blinked at him. "How? I mean, I'm not blaming you for anything you did when things were weird, but how?"

OOC!

[2_old_for_this]

Not a Christmas film!
