[Come 3PM, Japan will pop into this random chat. The Last Samurai is fascinating to him....]

Ah...it's started....

[i_speak_softly]

... Japan-sama?

[4000excuses]

Ah... [Right. Riiiight, the last time they spoke Japan was still... He sighs.]

Simply...Japan is fine. I apologize for my behavior before. The Malnosso...

[i_speak_softly]

[... Oh. Say no more.]

[He's still going to call you -sama though.]

You've seen this one before?

[Action-y Action]

[semper_cogitans]

[... It's probably somewhat late-ish by the time Robert returns home from Helios' party. Despite the fact that part of him had wanted to stay longer, he feels obligated in part by the fact that Don would've been home alone... and the fact he's worried the blizzard might have knocked out the power.

It's dark when he first walks in, and so his voice is curious as he closes the front door behind himself.]

... Don?

[i_speak_softly]

Down here. [That is, on the floor by the coffee table. The TV is off, and he's filtering his running journal entry before he starts the next movie. Who needs light?]

How was the party?

[semper_cogitans]

... It... was certainly exhausting, being around all those people... [With nobody else to cling to, unlike the Christmas ball.

Robert smiles fondly a moment later probably for reasons that haven't happened yet.] But... it was nice... I did enjoy it, and... and I hope Helios did too.

... Have... have you been alright? I... I did not want to leave you too long...

[i_speak_softly]

[He'll ask more about this in a minute.]

I've been watching movies with everyone. [Finishing the filter, he turns the TV back on and cues up the title screen of the next DVD. Once he's gotten it started, he moves back to the couch and resettles himself amongst the blankets.] Join us?

[During Jurassic Park] / [voice]

[justicereigns]

Huh. Drake would get a kick out of this.

[i_speak_softly]

It's the best.

[Normally he would ask who Drake is, but what's the difference? Everybody likes action movies with dinosaurs!]

[justicereigns]

I guess if you like dinosaurs eating people.

[i_speak_softly]

I like it when it's fictional. [It's fun to see the reptiles win!]

[Voice] Star Wars for James

[shinydeadaliens]

[Look at the turtle man! James barely blinks an eyelash. He does find himself intrigued by the movies, and without anything better to do.]

Never heard of Star Wars.

[Of course the minute the ships appear, James is even more intrigued! They look nothing like ships from home.]

Space opera? Hmm

[i_speak_softly]

Heathen.

[Honestly, 'space opera'? You need to sit down, shut up, and get converted to the cinematic religion that is George Lucas's greatest work.]

[shinydeadaliens]

What. [James sounds honestly confused and indigent.]

It reminds me of the old space operas from home! Besides space battle looks nothing like that! And where the hell are the biodomes on the ships?

[Poor man from the future. Everything he knows is wrong, at least according to Lucas.

However the story is interesting enough.]

[i_speak_softly]

This is nothing like daytime TV. This is about good and evil and the fate of the universe. And give the effects guys a break, it was the 70's.

The very tail end of Star Wars

[flameson]

[He sleeply said to the book as he flips it open to see the movie just as he wakes up]

Tha' looks like that Luke guy...

[i_speak_softly]

Mm-hmm. [Who else would it be?]

[flameson]

Guess he was an actor when he was younger, cool.

[i_speak_softly]

Ah, no, he worked on a farm...

[You should have watched the beginning of the movie.]
