"Of course. The cheesier the better."

"Sounds good to me. Popcorn? Cocoa?"

Permalink

"Of course. I'll get those made, if you want to pick out a movie."

Permalink

"Okay." Let's take a look at what's available.

She seems to have actually just recently gotten a set of children's Christmas classics - there's no other indication she's ever watched a Christmas movie. Still, the set includes 'The Year Without a Santa Claus,' 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas,' 'Frosty the Snowman,' 'Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer'...

The Grinch is good, and she liked the songs from 'The Year Without a Santa Claus'. Frosty less so, so start with those two and see how Anathema likes them.

Permalink

Anathema's bouncing a little as Ellie gets the TV set up and Fay gets the popcorn and cocoa.

Permalink

Hee. Ellie's a bit excited too, she's heard these but never been able to watch the whole thing.

Permalink

Anathema definitely seems to be having a lot of fun (the Grinch is probably her favorite, though she quickly starts humming along to the songs from 'The Year Without a Santa Claus;' she keeps humming bits of the two Meiser songs even after the movie ends, giggling).

"Movies are the best muggle thing," she declares at one point, laughing.

"They are pretty good, some of them."

Permalink

"Well, there's really bad books, but that doesn't make books not the best ever thing."

Permalink

Serious nod. "True, true."

Permalink

She giggles, leaning into Ellie.

Permalink

"I'm glad you liked them."

Permalink

"Yeah, I did."

"Thanks."

Permalink

Shoulder bump.

Permalink

Shoulder bump. "Are the other movies any good?"

Permalink

"I don't think so," she says, "but I haven't actually watched them all the way through."

Permalink

"Well, maybe we can start on one tomorrow and stop watching if it's boring."

Permalink

"Sure."

Permalink

Grin.

"We should floo somewhere it's snowing, today."

Permalink

"Okay."

Permalink

She smiles, shoulder bumps Ellie again, and goes to find her winter clothes.

Permalink

Ellie should do the same, then. And check in with Fay.

Permalink

Fay's doing alright, and thinks going somewhere with snow is an excellent idea. (Though it does require some thought about where - Hogsmeade seems most likely, they generally have snow and have a public floo station...)
