Frances poked around on her phone waiting for Martin to pop up from his meeting and go off for food, leaning up against the side of the office building he was currently in. If the lights flickered or the windows blew out, she'd know the meeting went.... sour and she needed to get in there. Hey, she could be a very believable bodyguard when the guy paid her in gold freaking doubloons. And by the way, she was now being followed by the Archival Squad for more. Looking up, she scowled at the picketers across the way and swarming the train station. Oh look at all the people's days you all are ruining, congrats. She sighed and kept playing Bejewelled, checking the time once more.

She grins and winks. I'm a Ranger, just like Aragorn.

Rolling her eyes behind him as they went into the parlor, she sighs. I don't think any of them really give a mystical nut what I say or think, Pip. However, should I ever see a sparkly sparkly tiger, I will be sure to clear the air. Analyzing the list of flavors, she resigns herself that candy cane is finally gone. Chocolate chip cookie dough? Or victorian toffee?

He blinks as they enter and speaks out loud. "Who's Aragorn?" He'd been too young when it had come out and his pop culture knowledge was lacking anyway. Not to mention if he'd never seen a movie before his magic had kicked in, it was unlikely he'd seen it since. At least he'd heard of the movies...and hobbits. Names were lost on him though.

If you ever saw him you'd know you saw him. It'd be hard to mistake him for a normalish tiger. Martin looks at the options and seems put out that he's limited to only one. He wanted both of her recommendations...

If you get the other one can I try it? Well...technically he didn't need to keep speaking in her head he realized. But it was good practice at least.

Frances looks at him in surprised shock. "Who's Aragorn?" she echoes, only sounding less confused than Martin. "Oh this is getting rectified. Orlen's going to magic proof my DVD player and we are fixing this, pronto."

If you want. I can't decide between the two, but you can have somethin you like. She makes a face, remembering to mindspeak and what the difference felt like. Too bad milkshakes can't keep flavors separate like scoops, And no, you don't get to get two small milkshakes to try both flavors.<i?

"It is? Oh, you don't need to ask Orlen to do that. I promise not to touch the DVD player or anything. You can set it up. Is it good? Will we get popcorn?" That was an important consideration.

Darn, he'd considered the two milkshakes thing. Hmph, how was he ever going to pick then? But two is better than one... Even dubloons wouldn't get him an extra milkshake he could see. "Toffee, a large one! But can I have the cookie dough next time?" He slowly was trying to go back to normal speak, mostly because he knew it was a weird experience for some people but also not to attract attention if people noticed they were making faces and gestures without words.

"More than just popcorn, Pip, we'll need serious snacks. It's nine hours long, this is an endurance marathon, but an awesome one. There's wizards and spiders the size of vans, epic wars and the scenery makes art students weep in joy."

She frowned at him in the no-nonsense way, squashing the many milkshake plan right there. "No yammying with special effects because you had too much ice cream." Holding out for a moment or two, she compromised. "A medium toffee milkshake. And a small cookie dough milkshake as well," she added, head turning to include the guy behind the counter and raising two fingers.

"That sounds fun! Are they good wizards? Or should I ignore them? Oh! Does it have magic arrows?"

He seemed a bit put out that she was going the responsible adult route and foiling his double milkshake plans. Well, at least he got a milkshake still. "I promise...can I try yours a bit? Please?" Cue his best pleading eyes.

She snickers. "The greatest: Gandalf. He's grumpy, but a good guy. And a total badass in a fight. There's plenty of arrows too, Elves shoot them something fierce."

Frances doesn't even bother looking over to se the puppy eyes, she knew what was coming. "Yes you can. Put that sad face away or people will think I didn't get you any ice cream at all."

"Oh no, I meant is he good good. Like is he good at magic. But he sounds cool! I want to see it now. Is your favourite one an elf? Maybe you could have elf in your title."

Pleading eyes get put away as he revels in victory. He'd get to try both those flavours after all!

"You'll have to watch and see," she replies, being as mysterious and vague as possible with a grin. "No no, I root for the city of Men, Gondor, except for the honor guard's helmets. Those are silly."

She smiles and all but waves as she walks to the booth with a nearly dancing magician behind her. You wish your workdays were this interesting.

"Fine..." And here he was stuck waiting to find out if the magic was well done. "A city of men? Aren't most cities of men? Is there a city of wizards?"

He doesn't waste time and follows quickly behind her. The faster they sat the faster the milkshakes would come. Obviously. This is how these things worked right?

"There's only five wizards in Middle Earth, they're called Ishtari. There are cities for Men or Elves, or well, Goblins or Orcs."

She watched him climb up onto his stool and smirked. "Okay, movies you need to watch... What about the Dark Crystal? I'm not sure Labyrinth is... well your age-range, and Hocus Pocus is about witches. Sorcerer's Apprentice? The Princess Bride?"

"That must mean they're really powerful otherwise there'd be more of them! Is one of them the supreme one? Does he have a goatee?" These were important questions.

Her list of movies gets a blank stare and blinking. He hasn't heard of most of them at all. "What are those movies? Are they the ones who try to do magic properly and end up doing it worse than the ones who didn't try at all?"

"You have to wait and see." She grins and wrinkles her nose, teasing him with the anticipation.

She shakes her head, decision made for her. "We're having a classic movie marathon. Orlen can bring some snacks too and join us, to explain the technical bits. There'll be snacks and drinks aplenty."

"That's mean, I have to wait through all of the movies to find out?" Cruel cruel archers.

"There's technical stuff? Like what?" He considers the question of snacks for a long moment. "There needs to be cookies of course, and straws for drinks, and ice cream, and umm...brownies with the icecream. And what's that drink called with the bubble stuff in it that you said I should try? It has giant straws I remember."

Cruel archers smirk in their superiority. "Teaches your patience and perseverance. You could be reading the books and those are even longer."

"I mean the two of you can geek over whether or not the techniques used are mystically valid. It'd go over my head." Contemplating her spoon for the upcoming milkshake, she breathes on it and works on balancing the spoon on her nose tip. "Yup, boba tea. And with teleporting, all the food we order will be fresh and quick."

"But I doooo read," he whined slightly. That wasn't a lie, he did read a lot, mostly spell books and latin things but it still counted. Real books might poof away on him. "Am I supposed to read the books first? Or after?"

"I haven't seen one that is yet! Some are okayish and close and some violate basic law stuff. Oh, we can explain it to you if you want!" Clearly education in fail magic of the movies was important. "Yep, no old food," he agreed as he stared at her spoon trick and frowned, trying to figure it out. The spoon on her nose wiggled now. What? He was just checking with tk if it was stuck on right!

She chuckled and then shrugged. "Either. I do both for movies-from-books. But he's like old english epic so it's veeeery long and dry sometimes. He is boring when he does geography."

"I liked Duane's stuff, but I was young and liked reading." She felt the twitch of the spoon and reached up to catch it. "Hey, hey. No no, you'll break the chi bond!" She's messing with him, of course.

"Oh, I'm used to long and dry. If you want I can show you the latin magic textbook. It's very boring."

"You don't like reading?! At all?" Martin just gives her a shocked look. But there were so many interesting things to read! "There's no chi! I'd feel it if there was something. How're you doing it? Show me," he insists with a frown. Chi bonds...as if he couldn't tell if there was one!

She pouts a little, sighing. "To be honest, I'm stuck reading debriefs and reports most days. Less pleasure reading then I used to."

"I too chi! It's chiiied right like crazy glue," she insisted back and laughed, leaning forward and catching the spoon. "Okay, this is fun trick: breathe on the spoon to make it foggy and now put the bowl on your nose." She put the spoon to nose and grinned, sliding it around to find the sweet spot again. "Tip your head around just until it stays."

"That sounds like runes studies, really dull. And hard to read." Martin was not a fan of runes, not one bit.

"You did not chi! If you chiied then I could mess with your chi!" He watches her perform the spoon trick with interest then looks down at his own spoon and considers it before leaning forward and breathing on it. "Can you put it on my nose?" Of course TK wasn't the best to do too publicly so he kept his hands in his lap.

"Who says you weren't chi-messing?" She smirks when he fogs the spoon, but asks for her help. Nodding she picks it up, and checks the foggy surface. "Tilt your chin juuust up enough to help find the spot. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get it to stick," she adds to warn him patience and sticks the spoon to his nose, hovering over it to catch.

He tilts his chin obediently, determined to get this right, even if he could do the trick telekinetically, it was the principle of the thing! To learn cool tricks was always a must.

The spoon decides this isn't happening and falls off. Martin glares daggers at it and breathes on it again. "Again! I want to get it right."

Frances doesn't even bother to correct or say anything, just picks up the spoon and puts it back on his nose. "Cheap cafeteria spoons are best: lightweight and shallow bowls. You just got to tweak until it sits." She smirks with a chuckle. "One time, during formation, we tried to keep this up while the drill sargent just yelled and yelled at us."

He listens and concentrates on the tip of his nose, trying hard to get this right. Did you managed to keep the spoon on then? Back to head talk for the moment since moving his mouth might do something to his spoon's precarious balance.

Mindspeak, good plan. Yes, though we were losing some after the first ten minutes. Sunny day, sweating like church-bound pi- people in wool suits. She looked over his shoulder. Don't jump, but here comes dessert. See if you can keep it on while the shakes are delivered.
