26. [ RL with Larsa ]

[areyoulovers]

[ Mileina's waiting outside a Union theater; ever since the elevator collapse, the AEU had become a bit more difficult to get to quickly, so the west coast of the Union had become her preferred port of call. She's wearing a sweater and a short denim skirt with leggings, playing with her phone while she waits for Larsa to appear ]

A-Alright. [.... jiiii how long is this going to go on.]

[areyoulovers]

[ ATTENTION FIRMLY ON THE MOVIE NOW shhhh larsa it's starting ]

[oh, he's watching, rapt. he won't even move throughout the entire movie, nor will he eat anything. HE GETS ALL HIS FOCUS.]

[areyoulovers]

[ it is a dramatic tale of FRIENDSHIP and NOBLE GOALS and SEXY PILOTS and CORRUPT GOVERNMENTS and it also has more over-the-top action than a ten year old boy allowed all the Transformers action figures in existence ]

[.......... o-oh, he is just. very overwhelmed by this all. he might be clutching the seat.]

[areyoulovers]

[ enjoy that shellshock larsa. As the lights come up and she picks up the empty popcorn bag, she notices his expression ]

Are you all right, Mr. Larsa?

[imperializing.livejournal.com]

No, no, I am just ... overwhelmed by all of this fascinating technology. [And that the entire movie hit too close to home, but whatever, she doesn't need to know that.]

[areyoulovers]

[ you think it hits close to home for you :| ] Well, I suppose it might be a little bit of a shock! But it was very exciting, wasn't it?

[imperializing.livejournal.com]

Yes, it was. Thank you for bringing me here.

[areyoulovers]

[ she gets a bit of an uncharacteristically thoughtful look on her face as she starts making her way out of the row of seats ]

It's a little bit strange... it's not that I don't like the movie, but that's not how I remember it happening. Just from hearing the news reports, of course! [ she adds that part hastily ] Do you think that sort of thing happens a lot when people tell stories?

[imperializing.livejournal.com]

Oh, of course. Many times, people wish to sound as if it were greater than it was. [He says it as if he's had to deal with his own version of it.] Or, perhaps, sometimes the fabrication is much better than the actual thing.
