Well then, we'd better hurry in if we want to get through the concessions stand before the previews end.

[buddinghopes]

Right! Let's go!

[And she goes darting in no sooner than she says that...

Admittedly, that may in part be eagerness to get into the air conditioning.]

[foolishjustice]

[He can't blame her. He's right beside her on the way in and, fortunately, getting tickets goes quickly.]

Do you want anything from the concessions stand?

[buddinghopes]

[She hums thoughtfully.]

Soda for sure... And I might as well get popcorn... What about you?

[foolishjustice]

Soda definitely...and I was thinking of getting some candy, too. And maybe something a bit more substantial, I have a bit of a fast metabolism...

[buddinghopes]

[She nods, then smiles sheepishly.]

Think it's because of your abilities? I know Mana Drive does that to me, especially if I've been using the abilities.

I wonder what they have here...

[foolishjustice]

Probably. I did have a sharp increase in appetite after I discovered them.

[buddinghopes]

My sympathies.

[Because boy does she know that feel.

She'll just be trying to peer ahead at what's available now.]

[foolishjustice]

[It's standard movie theater fare. Sodas, popcorn, candy. The heaviest food is nachos, hotdogs, and pretzel bites...at slightly absurd prices.]

I'm just glad I made it into a rich school, I don't have to worry about how much I eat here.

[buddinghopes]

No kidding...

[She wrinkles her nose a bit. She's willing to shell out for those prices since she's careful about her money as a rule but that doesn't mean she has to like it...]

I think I might get the nachos...

[foolishjustice]

I think I'll try the pretzels with marinara sauce...it's not exactly healthy, but I can afford a bit of extra sodium now and then.

[buddinghopes]

If you don't do it often, it's fine, right?

[She grins.]

You're welcome to the nachos, too, if you want to try 'em.

[foolishjustice]

And I do try to eat healthy most of the time...aside from the sweets.

[But it's fine, he puts the carbs to good use.]

You can have some of the pretzel bites too, if you want.

[buddinghopes]

I mean, I have no place to judge there, I'm the same way.

[She gives a thumbs-up, and when they reach the front of the line, she places her order, practically bouncing with excitement.]

[foolishjustice]

[He orders a soda for himself, too...and a few boxes of candy, while he's at it.]

[buddinghopes]

[Yeah, okay, as she's receiving the nachos and soda that she ordered, she can't help but grin a bit at the amount of candy he's gotten...]

[foolishjustice]

[Sugar helps him focus, okay?? But before he gathers his stuff out, he pulls his phone out of his pocket.]

Don't forget to turn your phone off before we go in.

[buddinghopes]

Oh! Right!

[She's... going to put her stuff down real quick to make sure she can do that. She pulls her phone out of her pocket before quickly switching it off and sliding it back in.]

Don't want to forget about that.

[Now she'll pick her order back up.]

[foolishjustice]

[He turns off his own phone, then slides it back into his pocket and grabs his order.]

Do you prefer a front seat or a back one?

[buddinghopes]

I tend to prefer a back seat. What about you?

[foolishjustice]

I'm the same, especially with action movies.

[Flashy special effects, with eyes that are closer to red than brown...]

[buddinghopes]

... Seat in the back it is, then!

[foolishjustice]

[Fortunately, there are plenty of those left. He settles in toward the middle of a back row, and sets his pretzel bites where they can both reach them.]

[buddinghopes]

[And she does the same with her nachos when she sits down next to him. Looks like they got in at a good time, too...]

[foolishjustice]

[He has...a bit of a hard time keeping quiet through the movie, but he manages to remember to keep his voice to a whisper when he does say something. He definitely seems to be having a good time, at least.]
