[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.

[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.]

[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?

[golden_gloves]

Really? I haven't either.

This is one of my favorites.

[Hey look, a copy of Rocky!]

[rainbowarch]

Ja. How do I choose one?

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

[rainbowarch]

[He shakes his head.]

Nah, just looking.

[rainbowarch]

[Rocky...? Does it have something to do with rocks?]

What's it about?

[golden_gloves]

It's about a man who goes from being a debt collector to being a really amazing heavyweight fighter.

[Akihiko gets that spark of inspiration in his eyes. Someday he's going to be an amazing fighter too, he can feel it.]

[rainbowarch]

[For a normal person, that would be an adequate description. But for someone like Cielo...]

Er...what's a debt collector? And a heavyweight fighter?

[Heavyweight fighter = Mick the Slug???]

[sorcery_fledgling]

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

[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]

[In the mood for?]

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

[rainbowarch]

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

What kind of movies do you like?

[420]

[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.

[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]

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

[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?

[rainbowarch]

Comedy? What's that?

[He's unfamiliar with that word!]

[rainbowarch]

Only a couple. The first one I saw was a martial arts movie.

[He has good memories of that! And of the delicious snacks that come with watching movies!

...half of his enjoyment of movies is the popcorn and candy, okay?]

[sorcery_fledgling]

It's a movie genre that's main purpose is to be funny, to make people laugh. Usually the plots in them are more laidback and happy.

[rainbowarch]

[Laidback and happy? People have used those words to describe him.]

Sounds perfect.

[sorcery_fledgling]

[It suits him!]

Okay... then you want to be looking...

[Scanning the shelves. Luckily, this video store seems organized, so there are labels on the shelves.]

Right here. [She points to a few rows of shelves behind them.] These are all comedy.
