He's apparently not being as subtle as he might like, because 'Chelle shoots him a knowing look - and a grateful smile.

Permalink

He smiles back. Nom.

Permalink

'Chelle and Teo don't start rooting for the sharks until after everyone's eating, thankfully, but they both apparently get frustrated by the characters lack of genre-savviness.

Nero throws a pillow at his brother's head.

Permalink

Percy is very focused on the movie. Which means he has nothing to do with that pillow that appears to have been thrown from the ceiling.

Permalink

He gets a pillow to the head from 'Chelle anyway.

Permalink

The pillow is quickly weaponized towards... Lan.

Permalink

Lan squawks, but launches the pillow at Alain with a laugh.

Permalink

"Betrayal!" Alain declares. "Amoroso, you're supposed to be on my side!"

Permalink

'Chelle laughs and dives behind Percy as Nero throws a cushion at her.

Permalink

Percy takes the hit and retaliates. Twice.

Permalink

After that it's all a bit of a free for all, with the movie long since forgotten.

Eventually though, they'll tire themselves out. At least enough to stop with the pillow fight. (Nero and Teo seem lighter, somehow, in the wake of it.)

Permalink

Percy soaks in into the atmosphere. This is good.

Permalink

'Chelle drops down next to him and nudges their shoulders together companionably. "Okay, I'm pretty sure that the people probably won," she says, watching the end credits role. "Despite their spectacular lack of genre-savviness, so. What're we watching next?"

Permalink

Percy looks at the options. There is a fantasy movie that might be the good kind of bad, but those often feature problematic parental situation... a gory horror movie.. a bit too similar to the other movie. "The silly parody of spy movies?"

Permalink

"Ooh, yeah!" Nero agrees, and commandeers the remote before anyone can object - not that anyone seems inclined to.

Permalink

'Chelle leans against Percy's side. "Good shout," she murmurs quietly.

Permalink

"Thanks," Percy says just as quiet.

Then they can watch the misadventures of four spies: The wannabe James Bond, played by an ugly actor with a good looking body-double; the female fatale spy that complains how she can't get a second date (they all die, because of her!); the spy kid played by a 25 year old pretending to be a high schooler; and the janitor that stumbled into a super-secret spy project that turned him into the perfect killing machine.

Permalink

There is much hilarity for all involved, and at some point, Alain flops over Teo's lap.

Permalink

Teo doesn't seem to mind, rather the opposite.

Permalink

Eventually though, the movie ends, and Alain is looking at his phone. "Yeesh, hate to break this up, but I have to get home."

Permalink

"It was very fun while it lasted."

Permalink

"Yeah. Thanks for coming over, guys. We appreciate it."

Permalink

"Hey, any time, you know that."

Permalink

Lan grins. "I always love an excuse for a pillow fight."
