It'd been a long time since Illyana had a movie night with anyone at all. Even longer since she'd had one with a group of people. In a different life she'd spent a lot quite a few nights with friends watching movies and throwing popcorn at one another. But that'd been then and this was now. And now she was weirdly excited about it. Not that she'd readily admit to it, but the lengths she went to in terms of preparation said enough. Children should get to have a childhood and childhoods were meant to be filled with movies and horrible snacks.

Which was exactly what this was.

Inside the theater she'd set up little stands manned by imps dressed in movie usher costumes. At their booths they're selling a variety of foods. There's a stand with popcorn mixed with various candies including M&M's, snowcaps, and probably some less tasty ones considering she let the imps pick out a few custom mixes. There's even a popcorn bag filled with nacho cheese to try out! There's a stand that has some nachos that also have various additions mixed. Basically the mixtures are whatever you could imagine, even if it's not something pleasant. The imps are doing their best though! There's also a few stands with sodas and with just candy to be picked up.

The first movie to be shown will be Gremlin a slightly altered (though barely) version of Gremlins. After that skies the limit! All the movies Illyana's picked out are horror movies of various kinds. There's a few that are about ghost sharks and one about Killer Klowns from Outer space. There's also one about a killer Leprechaun that's only real difference is it's a discount version of the original. Dollar store Leprechaun. There's a few in the j-horror haunting like the Grudge and a few featuring massive serial killers wearing weird masks.

Come have fun, feel free to make up your own movie to be shown! Or your own snacks! You're also obviously free to incorporate the event into this and have characters affected by the not being able to lie portion! Have fun!

“You don’t gotta get me a whole outfit, but a hat would be really neat!” He agreed, smiling his clumsy little smile before he listened to her idea. “That sounds like an important job, too, and I think you’d be better at it than me.” So he guessed they both knew what they’d be doing! Which was kind of exciting, even if it seemed like waiting would be kinda boring. “I guess we got a plan now! We just need to wait for it to be time.”

It all sounded pretty amazing to Mono, at least with how she was explaining it. “Yeah? You must got a lot of both, right?” At least Illyana seemed like she did to Mono, more than the average person he’d met since he arrived here.

“I guess… Power can be scary sometimes.” Like his, he realized. “But if someone’s not doing bad stuff with it, seems kinda dumb to treat them bad just for having it.”

“I dunno. It just seems like a lot to do.” People tended to buy him clothes, and while he kind of knew why that was at this point, it did seem like a lot of trouble to go to after a while. Besides that, he was pretty happy with the idea of new hats, anyway. “I hope not! I hope it snows lots soon.” Similarly, the boy knew patience was important… But the idea of a fun thing to do was honestly pretty exciting and made it hard to stay as patient as he might normally be .

“Wow! That’s probably a lot of learning then. Some of the books in the library here are really big and confusing looking.” He rather liked ones with stories that included pictures. They were more fun to read… And not nearly as hard as some of the other stuff he opened out of curiosity.

Mono frowned at that. He kind of understood that for sure… But then again? “It’s kinda stupid to not think that some people might not do bad stuff, huh?”

“Oh, okay then!” If it wasn’t going to be hard or cost her money, then he guessed that was okay, though he tilted his head slightly at the saying. “I think I heard people say that. It’s a funny thing to say, though. I dunno how it helps give luck for stuff.”

The boy remembered the big library in Limbo that she had showed him. There had been so many strange-looking books there… The boy had to tilt his head a little at one thing, though, that he’d never actually heard before. “Languages die?” Maybe that was normal. Lots of stuff died… Though languages didn’t seem like people or animals and stuff.
