"Yup. Jaymes barely loves anyone, but he loves you and Tove. I guess in some ways that makes it even better... because he's kinda picky"

"He loves lots of people, he's just... stoic, you know?"

"I guess... but he's always got ..." SHe makes a motion over her own face and it looks so still

"Oh yeah. Look, here's his very excited face." A stalwart and stony expression.

A giggle, then she schools her features "And his happy face" She makes the same...but with maaaybe tiny quirk of the lp

"Heartbreaking sadness!" Same face.

Kerri peeks out to check on them, then lets them be as they seem nicely settled.

Breaks into laughter

Then the movie starts...

Dagmar settles in to watch. There... may be parts where her eyes get dusty, but she will deny it.

Of course...

And Kerri may wonder what the world is coming when a little girl sings a song with the lyrics "Slaughter Race" but hey

Kerri mostly shakes her head and hopes for the best.

Dag huffs and grumbles. "Ain't fair, her leaving.."

"But she's gotta.."

"Still sucks."

"Sometimes folks have different dreams, you see? but that doesn't mean they can't cheer on the others dreams, right?"

"True. But.... he'll be lonely."

"I hate when people leave."

"Maybe they can figure out Email?"

"Maybe..."

"Are you worried Siv and Sylvi will leave?'

Hangnail chewing. A nod. "A little bit."

"Well.. THEY Know how to use Emails... and sides, they can't get away from me. You'll be sained and I'l lbe flickerflashing and we can go after and say 'Hey!" She wags her finger at the theortical strays "'That isn't nice'"

"And if that doesn't teach em, we'll tell Sylvi that being mean gives her wrinkles and tell Siv that new cute boys are here"

"Ha."

A BIG Grin, pleased with herself

And the movie rolls on

"Oh no, the virus!"

"I don't think I like this movie..."

But then they get to the part where the princesses act like superheroes

"Heh - that'd be you as a superhero..."

"HA. WHich one?"

"Hm. Snow?"

"Yeah. I can see that" She admits "Elsa's got cold powers like Uncle Vali"

"Yeah..."

"Mulan is surprisingly cool..."

"She's got a sword... so cool points"

"Yeah. I haven't seen all of these yet..."

"Oh I've got almost all of them"

"Well... they're kids movies.. but.. I mean... if you wanted company while watching them..."

"Dunno, maybe I wouldn't mind."

"Oh please. Sometimes I want to watch but it's not fun alone"

"Well, then, for your sake."

"You'll like some of htem, and if you REEALLY like one" Confidentially "I won't tell"

"Well... well, okay."

The movie ends.. Ralph learns his lesson, Venlope is his friend, and Slice Slice Slice.. is still cool

Dag yawns. "Ok. Good movie. But I should head home, yeah?"

"Yeah.." a grin "I'll clean up the last of the popcorn... for your sake" A smile

"Such sacrifice!"
