Why wouldn't I be? Alcohol's nice! But you're right, even if it's terrible, at least there's plenty to fill people's stomachs.
[Unlike in that moon base where he went without eating just to make sure his roommates had enough. That sucked]
Ha, why thank you. [Okay even he knows it's true] And I wouldn't say it was high maintenance! Like one of them? Kept touching me and prying into my romantic life. And when I said I didn't like that? She got pissed off and strongly suggested I get off the ship.
[Oh no, he laughed. He rarely ever laughs like that and he certainly doesn't smile all the time. She wears a dumb smile on her face as she tries not to chuckle... and fails.]
Anyway, so I was thinking...going with a classic- so, have dinner and watch a movie? [At least, he's read somewhere it was a classic] I mean, I wasn't really sure what kind of movie you're supposed to watch, but we got enough movies that I'm sure we can pick something out.
[Since hey, apparently movie collections grow when you're bored out of your mind and stuck on a ship]
Sounds good to me. [She's never done the dinner and a movie thing before, but at least she knows what a movie is. Thanks, earth people.] ... You know, I don't think I've ever seen a movie before. Are there lots of different kinds, then?
[She's thinking in terms of plays, so like... romance, drama, comedy. That's it.]
Oh man, I can't wait to see how wrong it is. That's okay, though. I'm not used to ninjas being-- celebrated? I don't know if that's the word for it.
I went to a play in Meltokio once, you probably remember the one. The villain in the play was a ninja and a really nasty one at that. Poor and stupid and... you know. It left a really bad taste in my mouth.
[Sure is great being a lower class citizen, even lower than the poor people in Meltokio.]
[... Basically. She misses home, but that worry is behind her now that there's all that weird timey wimey shit she learned about in Exsilium. She can safely leave it to her other self, which is a weird thing to think about, but that's what it is.
[And then she can't finish that, because she's stuck giggling behind her other hand. Holy fuck. She hasn't laughed this hard in a long time, and it's embarrassing somehow, so she has to lean away a bit to try and compose herself.]
[Aw yeah he wins. He watches her laugh her head off and man, it's adorable and a great sound. He can't help but smile and laugh a little too at her reaction.]
[She smiles at him almost knowingly. As much as he hates admitting it, Zelos has always liked having a couple people to watch over. His roommates in Exsilium, the group at home... She still remembers all the glowing words she heard at that one party, about how he'd cook for them and stuff.]

She cranes her head around and stares though.]
Damn. When someone's annoying your personal space, I know it's bad.
[She pauses, then looks away again. Her voice is light.]
You... really turned her down? Even though I was gone?
no subject
[Annnd there's a pause at her words. He has to swallow the sting a little]
Well...yeah.
I know I have quite a history, but I'm not a cheater. [He wasn't going to be his dad, no matter what]
no subject
It's-- it's not that I expect you to be one. I mean, your reputation back home was something else, but you're-- different, when you're with me.
You spent six months alone already and you might never have seen me again. That's a real risk. I'd like to say I wouldn't let that happen, but then...
[She trails off, not knowing entirely where she was going with this.]
... I'd understand if you hadn't waited. You can do whatever you want. I'll never try to drag you down, that's not what I'm about.
no subject
I wanted to wait, Sheena. I like you.
Just...get over the guilt thing about not being here right away, okay? Six months isn't that long.
no subject
W-- well--
[Make that physical too.]
I-I like you too. So... I'm going to do this, okay? [She squeezes his hand.] And this too.
[She leans in to kiss his cheek, since lips might be bad when he's driving.]
screw it no short hair icon fits
No fair, it's not like I can do anything back while I'm flying this thing!
no subject
That was kind of the point.

[Nevermind he's still smiling]

[She brightens.]
Then it's official, that's what we're gonna watch.

[He snickers and squeezes her hand. Yaaaaais. He picked right]
Haha, already got one picked out!

[His home was full of problematic stories like that, really. Yet another reason not to miss the place, he supposes]
But don't worry! This thing is plenty wrong! I hear there's a fight scene done entirely in the air- because you know, ninjas can fly!

She looks at Kaneis incredulously.]
N... no? Oh man, this sounds ridiculous.

[he snickers]
Man, and here I thought your ribbon could act as a propeller or something.

What--

Yeah! Like those helicopter-thingys!
no subject
I'm gonna fly dinner at your face!
no subject
Hey don't try any flying tricks on the ship! There's not enough room!
[Which hey, looks like the Wonderduck is coming into view! Spoiler, it looks like
Serenity a duck]no subject
why is it phallic? why is everything phallic????]So that's the Wonderduck? It sure is a... wonder.
no subject
Ha-
Terrible name, but she's a good ship. I'll admit I've grown kinda attached.
no subject
You like your crew, huh?
[She smiles at him almost knowingly. As much as he hates admitting it, Zelos has always liked having a couple people to watch over. His roommates in Exsilium, the group at home... She still remembers all the glowing words she heard at that one party, about how he'd cook for them and stuff.]
no subject
...No, I meant the ship itself.
[No really, he barely knows the crew. They change so much man]
