I was looking to see if there was a personal library or something up here. Or if we could just turn the thing off for an hour. But so far I've got nothing.

[uncurtained]

It'd probably turn off if we break it.

[Joking, joking.]

[crashout]

Maybe let's not break the projector, but we can definitely try to break the discs it's playing? There has to be a hard copy of the movies in rotation.

[uncurtained]

Fingers crossed they aren't haunted Shrek DVDs, then.

[crashout]

[It gets a laugh out of him.] Maybe don't jinx us before we get that far. [But he's moving to another portion of the room to check through things.]

...what's your favorite movie anyway? Like if you had to pick something to stream instead.

[uncurtained]

[After a few seconds of thought:]

Pretty in Pink. You?

[crashout]

A love story of two people from two different worlds. It makes sense. [But not in a mean way, it's just an observation. It takes him time to think but with his back to her as he roots around it's easy to pretend it's just because he has a lot of options.]

I think even after everything I'd still pick Back to the Future. It's really old, but...still a classic.

[uncurtained]

[Even if it's an observation, she gives a light laugh, glancing his way.]

It does? How so?

[And the smile widens a little bit at his answer.]

You know, that makes sense too.

[crashout]

You look like the kind of girl who wants a good romance. [Honest and open, but he looks at her over his shoulder.] But I could be wrong.

[He doesn't seem convinced though.] Same question. How so?

[uncurtained]

Right, well... It doesn't really happen like it does in the movies.

[But she moves past that, thinking about it.]

Well, it matches your sense of humor. You seem like the kind of guy who'd be into science fiction... And the time travel thing is very on the nose.

[crashout]

[There's a lopsided little grin because man, tell him about it?? Moving on!]

I'll have you know I liked it before SHIFTing was an option. But yeah, the rest is...pretty accurate. [A shrug.] I'm not great at science but the possibilities are cool.

[Checking on one of the devices, he's much closer now and reaches up to grab a memory card reader, hand just barely brushing over Beck's shoulder to move past her.]

Hey, how awful do you think Shrek to the Future would be?

[uncurtained]

Seriously? That would be—

[She starts, before he brushes past her. Then she pauses, glancing his way, as she takes a breath.]

...Oh, wow. Um, do you feel weird at all...?

[crashout]

[It doesn't hit right away, and he turns to look over at her with a curious gaze.]

What kind of weird...?

[Except when he looks right at her he knows immediately what kind of weird. It's a pinprickling, hot sort of sensation crawling over his skin and his mouth goes dry for a minute.]

...uh. [Yeah. Intelligent.] Okay, uh...we can just...ignore whatever the fuck this is, right?

[uncurtained]

Yeah... Yeah, totally. We can be adults about this.

[Maybe.]

[crashout]

Right. Adults. [Mmmmmm. What if he just. Turns away to look elsewhere? Yeah!] Anyway. Film. Finding a new one. We can do that, right?

[uncurtained]

Yeah... Yeah, totally.

[She looks around the room for a split second before she glances back towards him, biting her lip.]

Do you think it's because we touched...?

[crashout]

I'm starting to wonder the same thing. Can this place even do that? How's that possible?

[He knows there's science to back the art of attraction and lust but also? He barely touched her? This is insane.] That's going to make the rest of this week kind of a pain in the ass...

[uncurtained]

I guess so, yeah...

[She smooths her hair back, taking a deep breath.]

So we'll just have to be, um, careful from now on.

[crashout]

Right. Yeah. [A pause...and he turns to lean against a wall to watch her.] It's kind of stuffy in here, isn't it? Small room and everything.

[Hm.]

[uncurtained]

...Yeah, it does feel kind of warm. Do you think there's a fan, or...?

[aaaaaa]

[crashout]

In a projection room? Probably not...the sound would play over the film, I think. [He pulls at his shirt collar a little.] Maybe we should go. As much as I hate to let Shrek win...

[uncurtained]

At least we won't have to watch any more.

[...]

Where do you want to go?

[crashout]

Um. [UM.] ...you know what, I might just wait it out here. [Hm. Skinny jeans are a bad idea when you find yourself growing hard just from being around a hot girl. Like, thanks a lot, aphro, but come the fuck on.]

[uncurtained]

[Hm.

She could make a good decision and leave! And yet...]

Do you want me to stay with you?

[crashout]

[And yet. He eyes her curiously.]

You think that's a good idea? We have it on record that I still think you're hot. [Stop. He's trying to tease her and also distract from the situation, but that's the worst way to do it.]
