A rather dull weekend over Webflix

[boo_blimp_babe]

Who: Charlise and anyone who happens upon the game room.
What: Lazy, rainy weekend.
Where: Game room
When: Weekend 7/11 - 7/12
Warnings: It's Kitty. That's warning enough.


Ever since returning to Smash, Kitty had felt sort of distant. Not in the way she had felt before, but more in the way of being confused and without purpose. She already knew she felt alone due to the lack of having some of the very few people she got close to. Even if she'd never tell them, she did feel lost without them, her team. A glimmer of silver was the fact that, while under her own problems and stress, Evve was still around. And she had heard that the ketchup meathead was still around too as well as her old roommate. But alas, they had their things, their friends and their lives to live. Kitty had... well, Kitty had fuckall.

She had made her way down to the front, and had packed a bag with treats in hopes that maybe an outting in the woods that she used to haunt would give her some answer and as soon as she opened the damned doors a fucking downpour decided to break lose. You know what they say about summer rains? Well fuck them.

She looked back and saw that the game room lobby was empty, probably because everyone was out and about having a blast during summer <s>unbeknownst to Kitty of the crazy shit happening around the school</s>. Making her way to the couch, she dropped down, set her bag besides her and loaded up Webflix on the widescreen. Maybe it was just a movie day...

Or days... cause Kitty just lost track of time while marathoning movies and series. You'll find her through two days worth of movies and random shows, nibbling on her snacks as she rearranges herself every so often. The genres vary but you'll generally find her watching depressing shit, horror movies, suspense, sci-fi, thrillers, psychological and that sort of thing.

Maybe if it wasn't a foreign horror movie. Those tended to end in tragedy, most times. But who knows! This one has had its ups and downs. Like right now the movie had slowed down. The struggle between the two sides displayed in slow motion as each face was shown in the agony of despair. Looking at each other, faded glimpses of their happy lives before all this began to play out just before the male protagonist simply smiled.

"Let go. Save yourself. We'll both be dragged in..."

To which the girl responded with a frenzied shake of her head. "No! I can't! I won't!" she cried. Meanwhile, the shadowy tendrils eveloped him more and more. "Let go! I want you to live please! Live for both of us!" The girl, once again refused to let go, crying and shaking her head, desperately trying to pull him out of the spirit's grasp.

However, in one strong pull, the man loosened his grip and let go of the girl. A howling scream echoed through the hall as the guy was pulled into the shadows. "RUN!" he screamed as his voice trailed of. "I LOVE YOU!" To which of course Kitty rolled her eyes. The girl cried but listened, turning tail and running as fast as she could, breaking through the shadows of the hall and into the light of the outside world. Even then, she ran. Ran past the gate, the streets. Ran past cars and people, frantically crying. Nothing seemed to be following her and yet she couldn't bring herself to stop... Seemed like this would be the resolution and ending of the movie.

Kitty may have been rolling her eyes, but Hilda was totally into it. She was a sap and the way the protagonists were tearfully saying their goodbyes to each other got to her. She was already emotionally invested in this movie like, 15 minutes in, so maybe she was starting to tear up a little bit. Don't cry, it's just a movie...

The screen faded to black and the credits began to roll, so she sniffled and sat back in her chair. No tears, thank goodness! "Dang," Hilda said as she straightened out her legs and stretched.

Kitty raised a brow at her and a small smile formed on her face. "You okay there dude? Sounds like yer smellin' some onions." she teased before offering a drink.

"Pretty good eh? I mean, the endin' really wasn't what I was expectin' but it delivered. I give it an 8 outta 10. Would watch again."

[for_truth]

"Huh!?" Hilda squawked and fanned her face to dry her eyes out, "I'm fine! I just, uh, heh... Y'know, ain't really seen too many ghost flicks with so much drama in 'em." More like 'I'm a sensitive baby and sad people make me sad,' but she wasn't going to tell anybody that.

"But yeah, I'd watch it again. Like, not anytime soon, but it was cool."

[boo_blimp_babe]

Kitty smiled, a genuine smile and nodded. "YEah? You ain't seen many of these then. Plenty of ghost movies, especially foreign ones are chock full of fuckin' drama man.... Lots of them are hella tragic and sad." Which she felt a deep connection to them as it was.

Offering a thumbs up, Kitty giggled, "Glad ya enjoyed it."

[for_truth]

"Man," She frowned for a second to contemplate the idea of living somewhere all these crazy sad movies came out all the time. "I know what to watch when I need somethin' sad, jeez!" She laughed but she was totally serious. Forget those movies about sad people kissing in the rain, maybe scary movies from different places were the way to go.

"How could I not enjoy that? It was like ridin' a roller coaster!" You know, terrifying.

[boo_blimp_babe]

"Heh, you can say that again. Pretty fun I guess." I guess? She was actually enjoying herself but how could she admit to that? That would be very unlike her as she wasn't supposed to show shit like that. Remember Kitty, cold hearted, unapproachable, stop smiling!

[for_truth]

DON'T DO IT, KEEP SMILING. Fight your destiny!

"Hey, we should hang more sometime! I gotta run pretty soon, but this was totally a blast!"

[boo_blimp_babe]

Charlise blinked a few times. The number of people who had ever told her something along the lines of 'hey, we should hang out more sometime' could be counted with one hand and she'd have spare digits left.

"Oh uh... s-sure. I guess... I mean, if you wanted to."

[for_truth]

Well, however many that was, better add a +1 to it!

"'Course I wanna! I mean, if I didn't I wouldn't've asked." She stood and put her chair back where she found it. "Where do you usually hang? I woulda been out on the track if it wasn't raining today."

[boo_blimp_babe]

"True enough I guess." she quipped back as she lowered her hoodie.

Where did she hang nowadays? "My room, the roof, the forest or here if there isn't anyone around and shit."

[for_truth]

"Oh, yeah? Got it! I'll catch ya later, Kitty."

She made sure she didn't leave a mess behind and waved as she made her way towards the door, "It was a BLAST hangin' with you today!"

[boo_blimp_babe]

A blast? Okay, this girl was really not normal... but. Well... that wasn't a bad thing. Not at all...

Kitty waved her out dismissibly. "Yeah, uh, thanks.... you too..."
