Careful manuvering
Eliza was frantic in her search for some sun glasses and some warm clothing so she could go shopping. She pulled on a coat and shoved some gloves into her pocket and bounced out of her room with a purse stuck under one arm. She stops and stands by a window looking outside. It really did look chilly but she had to get out there to pick up something for the charity ball.

She wonders for a moment if she can recruit someone to go with her on this little trip. She smiles to herself and searches the mansion looking for Iason before she looses her nerve. There's no reason to not ask him to go with her. It's just to pick up some toys.

"Iason?"

	Eliza gets up and goes to find her coat. She was buttoning it up on her way back over and checking her pockets to make sure she had what she needed. "I'm ready," she announces when she finds him again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He hasn't moved from where she left him, so he's easy to find. He takes careful hold of her again, and takes off as soon as they're outside. "Ok, you'll have to direct me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She gives him directions. The place she had selected isn't that far off by air. The traffic would have made it taken around a half an hour. But by air it took five minutes once Eliza figured out the best way there. There were lots of people going in and out of the theater. Excitement was everywhere. "This place looks busy. Cool."

	"Glad we caught it before it left theaters. Still, definitely pretty popular." He's used to flying whenever he can. Its just easier. He heads over to get in line for tickets. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Me too," she agrees. She is bouncing on the balls of her feet with excitement anyways. She'll calm down once she sees how many people are there and decides she doesn't want to embarrass herself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He sees it though, and seems quite pleased by how excited she is over this. Getting tickets takes a while with so many people, but eventually they make it in. "Drinks, popcorn, anything?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-16 02:30 am UTC (link)
	"Soda and popcorn would be great. Maybe just one big soda we can share?" She has no problem sharing food with people. She doesn't know how he feels. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-16 02:32 am UTC (link)
	"Sounds good to me, what kind do you like, and how do you prefer your popcorn?" he asks. Since germs are a non-issue for his people, it makes sense he wouldn't have some of the same taboos as some. At the very least, he doesn't seem to have any problems sharing food with her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Doctor Pepper heavy on the butter," she answers not missing a beat. Sure the butter always makes her thirsty but she'll be fine. She never saw a reason to not share things with people. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-16 06:27 am UTC (link)
	He orders per her specifications, extra large popcorn, heavy butter, to share, extra large Dr. Pepper, also to share. He has no problem with splitting the food and drink. "Ok, I think we're set, and with a few minutes to spare. Shall we see what kind of seats we can find?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She nods with a smile. "Yeah. I don't think we'll have a problem though."

She saw that while there were plenty of families there was also a fair mix of other people. She was sure that Where the Wild Things Are wouldn't be too packed.

She was right, mostly. There were a couple dozen people. A few elderly women in the front and some college aged people who were poking at each other and having fun. Then there were the over worked parents and their happy kids and the not so over worked parents and their kids. Eliza glanced around trying to find a spot for them.

	He points out a couple seats out near the middle. "Those work for you? Or do you prefer to sit up close... or further back where the light and sound are less intense? I'm not sure of the degrees of your senses." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-16 07:06 am UTC (link)
	"Further back, please. The light won't bother my eyes so much. I'm not too worried about the sound," she glances through the dim lights and starts up back towards where she was sure he meant since there was a nice gap for them to take over. She stood or a moment and flashed a girn. "Perfect." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-16 07:10 am UTC (link)
	"No problem, like I said, I wasn't sure of the degrees of your senses, aside from them being somewhat enhanced. Anywhere is fine." he replies, holding onto the food and drink so she can get settled, then sitting beside her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-16 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	She just flashes him a pleased look as she settles down. Her coat gets undone so she doesn't get to warm during the movie. She preferred to be comfortable after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-16 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	He goes quiet as the movie starts up, sampling the popcorn and drink, but leaving plenty for her, and occasionally resting his hand on her far shoulder or her hand as the movie gets going. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A few times Eliza just out right laughs. But most of the time she just nibbles at the pop corn and sips on the soda. At one point she leans just a little on his shoulder but most of the movie is spent with Eliza bent forward watching the screen intently. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He's pretty intent on the movie most of the way through. Its certainly an odd story, for those not familiar with the book, but also a well crafted one. By the end of the movie the food and drink are gone, leaving his arm free to rest across the back of her seat, for those few times she isn't leaning forward watching the screen.

"Not what I had expected, but a very good movie."

"It was different than the book," she laments a little. "But I liked it. It was fun. And cute. Also a good movie for kids."

She's going a little faster with her words right now. All the soda had her a little more hyper than she had been when they got here. She wasn't about to say she was still sort of hungry but her stomach let it be known as she stood up. The loud gurgle had her just shrug it off she would eat whenever.

	He can't help but notice that. "Popcorn isn't very filling sometimes. Ready for dinner?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-17 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah, I am," she says while working a kink out of her back. She is in a very good mood though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-17 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	He moves behind her, pressing his thumb against the area she seems to be trying to stretch and rubs lightly to help ease the tension from the muscles. "Alright, still want the same thing for dinner? If so, it a short flight or a moderate walk." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2009-12-17 11:02 pm UTC (link)
	That felt delightful. It leaves Eliza smiling and sending him a look that promises something at some point in the future just not quite yet. "I don't mind walking. It shouldn't be too dark out yet and we can see some of the Christmas lights better on foot." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2009-12-18 02:05 am UTC (link)
	When he's finished with the impromptu backrub he takes her hand, and start towards the restaurant. "This is quite a spectacle." he notes, of the lights. "I'll bet I could see this city from space right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Probably. New York is already very bright," she says with a nod. "There was this... weird technoranic space station on my Earth we had to take down. It was trying to eat the satellites in orbit of Earth this one time,' she says to explain. "Earth looked... pretty. I was in the little ship we took up to do the fighting off of."
