Who: Assassin, Kiritsugu, & Waver
Where: The media room in Guest Building 1
When: T...oday?
Summary: In the continuing saga of WHY IS PARENTING SO HARD?, Waver has to tell two children not to watch an R-rated movie only to have one break the other's arm.
Warnings: Movie violence followed by actual (accidental) violence


[Neither Waver nor Assassin had expected Kerry to stop by their apartment. Apparently, it had slipped Waver's mind that he had said for Kerry to come over so that he could start teaching him magecraft. Assassin had been pleased by this turn of events, though, in her way. Pleased, and also impatient, with most of Waver's attempts to teach colored by her presence as she lurked and watched. She never said anything, of course, but apparently Waver could only take so much of her staring intently at the back of his head before he let her steal his student away.]

[Which is how the three of them wound up on the bottom floor of the first apartment building, faced with shelf after shelf of DVDs. Assassin doesn't care much one way or another about the kind of movie they watch, or the kind of snacks they eat, so she leaves selecting the former to Kerry and the latter to Waver. When Waver leaves to take care of the duty he has been assigned to, Assassin sticks to Kerry, peering over his shoulder at the film selection. She's as silent as ever, but her interest is obvious, eyes wide and curious as studies the box art.]

[Kerry is interested in learning magecraft, but largely as it can be applied to battle situations, which isn't--exactly--Waver's focus. Not that that's bad, but he doesn't mind hanging out with Riko (as he called Assassin) instead. He can always learn more magecraft later.

Not thinking about Waver at the moment, he is instead focused on the movies. It's confusing to find them in narrow boxes, and then, when he opens said boxes, to find weird, shiny discs inside them.

What are these things, anyway...?

[Not that he expects Riko to answer him, but he's curious. He spins a DVD on his finger.]

There are really movies on them? I've never heard of any of these.

[That could be because movies are all different here, or because Kerry is from the 70s. Either/or. He examines the box art carefully, with an eye for anything that looks like it might have a lot of action and excitement in in. No zombie movies, though. Definitely not.]

[Waver knows someone must be thinking about him uncharitably, because his ears are burning and they burn a lot because people think badly of him a lot and not because they are sensitive. He is absolutely positive this is the case as he investigates a nearby shop for snacks, having every ounce of faith that Kerry will pick an age-appropriate film to watch with his little charge. Just... hopefully something without obnoxious singing animals in it. He can't stand how utterly illogical that concept is.]

[Kerry frowns at it.]

We could try it, I guess. It says it's a movie. This one looks pretty good, anyway!

[Kerry is judging this by the fact that it seems to be full of spies and shooting, and the case says something about it being an "electrifying thriller". Can't go wrong with that!

So, he lets her take the disc from him.

[Settling on biscuits, popcorn, licorice, and chocolate milk, Waver goes to purchase the snacks in question before heading back to the media room. Hopefully they will have selected a film by now...]

[Where holding DVDs is concerned, Kerry doesn't know any better, so he doesn't correct her.]

That looks right...

[He thinks! This technology is weird. But TVs he knows, at least, so he can figure this out. He fiddles with the buttons for a bit, but fortunately they're all clearly marked.

He's rewarded for his efforts soon after when the movie starts up, the previews starting to play.

There! That wasn't so hard.

[THE LICORICE ISN'T FOR HER ANYWAY, HE IS ALLOWED TO HAVE SOME NICE THINGS FOR HIMSELF!! Licorice is like Waver, nobody wants it. Licorice is the only thing that will let him love it tenderly with his mouth. But they are both too young to hear about such things!!

Waver attempts to get back in a timely manner, he truly does. But he gets all the way down the street only to realise he's left his wallet in the store, goes back to get it, and then gets sidetracked running from an angry dog. At least with all the previews he's only likely to miss the first ten minutes of the film?]
