[A friend once introduced Cielo to movies. And now that there was a television in the Embryon Base, he was going to make use of it and get one to watch.

Except there's a problem.

How does he know which one to choose!?

The shelves are lined with countless titles! Help the very confused looking digital devil out and give him some recommendations!]

[There are not enough kung-fu flicks here. What gives?

He's about to step in between Cielo and the shelves, but catches himself.]

Oh, sorry. Didn't see you there.

[rainbowarch]

[He waves it off. No biggie, bro.]

No problem. I don't know what I'm looking for anyway.

[golden_gloves]

Just browsing? The sections aren't labeled well anyway.

[Akihiko pulls a copy of Independence Day off the shelf, the places it back. Looks like they're in the science fiction section.]

What kind of flicks do you like? Maybe I can suggest something.

[rainbowarch]

I don't know. I haven't seen that many movies.

[He's only seen a couple of them.]

I guess I'm saying I'm not picky.

[golden_gloves]

Really? I haven't either.

This is one of my favorites.

[Hey look, a copy of Rocky!]

[tsundyne]

Looks like you're having trouble.

[Yukari walks up behind Cielo, peeking over his shoulder at the movies that seem to have caught his attention. She's looking for movies for her own collection, of course, but...

They can wait a bit.]

[rainbowarch]

Ja. How do I choose one?

[All he can do is look at the titles and the cover art!]

[tsundyne]

Well, it depends!

Sometimes you just have to read the summaries on the back to see what it's about.

[And lo behold, she will show him-- grabbing a random DVD off the shelf and flipping it over to dat wall o' text. See, see?]

[rainbowarch]

[Woah, really? He gets a different one and looks. Sure enough, there's a summary!]

What kind of movies do you like?

[tsundyne]

Me? Oh, y'know...

[She trails off for a moment, buying herself some time to think. She has her preferences, naturally...]

Romantic comedies and stuff. I'll watch anything once, though, really.

[Not entirely true, she'll just bitch throughout the whole thing if she doesn't like it-- but ANYWAY]

What about you, Cielo? How many movies have you seen, anyway?

[sorcery_fledgling]

Cielo?

[Rinoa had been looking for a nice comedy to laugh at while eating a small tub of ice cream. Yeah, it's one of those days. But seeing the Embryon member here, looking awfully confused, drags her from that quest.]

You looking for one in particular?

[rainbowarch]

[He shakes his head.]

Nah, just looking.

[sorcery_fledgling]

Hm~ Got anything in mind? Like, what are you in the mood for?

[rainbowarch]

[In the mood for?]

Hmm...I think I'd like something happy.

[sorcery_fledgling]

Oh, then a comedy? Those are usually pretty happy.

[Gamzee likes movies. But not so much cause he likes watching movies, but more cause they are such an excellent excuse for cuddling on a couch with a bro. In fact, to be absolutely honest, most of the movies they own, he hasn't even seen fully, always missing bits and pieces here and there due to his mind or lips being occupied otherwise. Well, that or due to just conking out asleep half way though.

But regardless.

Gamzee glances over the movies on the shelves, trying to find a movie starring horses that they don't already have back home --a hard task indeed, they actually have three copies of Black Bouyty on account of Gamzee always forgetting they already got it-- his mind far too occupied to mind where his feet are going. It isn't until he collides into Cielo, mostly harmlessly thankfully, that he glances up.]

Whoops. Sorry there, bro. Didn't all get to seeing you there being on the account of my ganders being distributed elsewheres.

[rainbowarch]

[So Cielo now understands that there are movie summaries on the backs of the cases. Still unsure of what he wants to see, he has a case in his hand and is reading the summary on the back when jdkshf something is attacking him oh no wait that's just Cielo Gamzee.]

No problem. You here to get a movie too?

[420]

Yeah. Gotta up and find some shit what me and my babe can get our enjoyment on watching.

[So basically, it gotta have ponies or clowns. Or both.

Still, even after all this time, human movies are a little weird to him. Not just the themes and images in the movies themselves, but also the boxes. Why are the titles so fuckin' short? How is a dude supposed to know what he is going to watch if the title doesn't, in minute detail, tell you what is going to happen. Seriously. Troll movies were so much more convenient.]

[rainbowarch]

I have no idea what to get.

[He isn't restricted by equines or harlequins, but in a way, that kind of makes it more difficult to figure out what it is to choose.]

Do you know any good movies?

[420]

[He rubs his chin in thought.]

Hmmm, what kinda flicks would a motherfucker be down for being?

[donotcomprehend]

[Cielo will be getting absolutely no help with picking a movie from Gale, since Gale hasn't even had the chance to watch any movies. He's just... trailing along behind Cielo and reading the summaries, and occasionally commenting on one of them.]

Are you ready to make a decision?

[rainbowarch]

Does it look like I'm ready?

[This is Cielo replacing yet another DVD case on the shelf. After a while, the summaries all seem to look alike. Or maybe the fact is that a lot of them really are similar.]

What kind of movie do you want to see?

[donotcomprehend]

No.

[No, Gale, you didn't need to answer that.]

They are simply stories. I have no need to see any of them.

[rainbowarch]

Well, ja, nobody needs to see them. But we can if we want to.

[And Cielo wants to! There's a certain kind of wonder in being able to do something solely because you just wanted to.]

Anyway, I didn't ask you if you needed to see a movie.

[He's waggling a finger in your face, Gale.]

I asked what you wanted to see. Oh, and before you say anything, none is not an option so don't even try it, bro.

[donotcomprehend]

I do not know.

[That counts as a valid answer, right, Cielo? So get your hand out of his face before he bites it or something, gosh.]

There do not seem to be any that distinguish themselves.
