Ooo-kay, when did Miracleman start channelling Gandalf? Not going to complain, though. I nudge SA. "Pretty cool, huh?"

The wraith stomp past to the end of the line. Steam hisses up from the sidewalk under the boots.

"Guys, come on, you've seen it already, haven't you?"

They nod and shrug in that way that always says, "Yeah, so what?"

"Granted, you didn't have as much good stuff to do in this one. It's a big theater and all the seats are good. Tell you what, how about a round of popcorn on me?"

They consult with each other a moment, then the leader comes forward. "Naa--chosss."

"Nachos for everybody?"

"Yessss." One of the smaller wraiths looks like he's going to protest, but the leader turns and glares at him.

"Pickles?"

The leader hisses menacingly.

"OK, no pickles, I never saw the point of 'em at hte movies either. Nachos for everybody." As the leader turns to go back to his bunch, I mouth the word "Popcorn" at the one who doesn't like nachos, and he bounces a little before resuming the approved guise of muttering and hissing. Giddy wraiths. Goddess help the furniture.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I snort and suck on my ever-refilled Pepsi glass. "I tell you what, though, Connie. Those guys are small potatoes compared to what I saw Wednesday. It was Dobby. And Gollum. They were making smoochy faces at each other." I give a quick shudder. "Scariest thing I've ever seen."

"I wish Dobby would just go to Dumbledore and confess all. I'm sure Hagrid could find a place for Gollum to hang out. He'd make a great Defense against hte Dark Arts instructor--or maybe not."

"He'd be a great Defense Against the Dark Arts experiment."

snerk! "Your class project--find this creature, who is lurking somewhere in the castle. One hundred points to the house that finds him without having any classmates killed--yes, I'm looking at you, Mr. Malfoy, you may not use Mr. Goyle as bait again."

"Heh. This is why I really voted against putting Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings in the same theater.... The characters keep popping up, making, um, nice, with each other. I swear I saw Frodo making eyes at Harry the other day, and the look of hatred in Sam's eyes ... whew. I inched over to the other side of the room."

Honey, I'm in the passenger seat next to you.

Yep, we're down the hall.

"And Snape! Did you see Snape giving Wormtongue hte evil eye? I think I heard something about stealing hte other person's look. Sure, Wormtongue was created longer ago than Snape, but Snape's got a good argument for having been on the screen longer."

"Honestly, I think they're trying to shrug of the idea that they were twins separated at birth."
