Everybody's seen movies before. [A pause, during which he remembers just how many people he knows who haven't, actually.] Almost everybody. [And he nibbles at his ice cream cone. He's sitting on a bench on the sidewalk, his bike leaning against the side of it.]

The sneaking part is part of being a kid! You sneak out of the house without telling your parents you're going to a movie or a party or whatever, [or to just go hang out with your best friends,] and then you sneak back and they don't have to know you ever went anywhere.

[Another pause.]

I guess you could tell them, 'cause Andy's pretty cool. Just don't tell 'em the movie's not for kids. [It's a shitty R-rated comedy, in fact.]

From:

darkov

Oh.

[the sneaking part is the important part, apparently?

except...he'd gotten in a lot of trouble for some of the sneaking out he'd done before. that really wasn't the crux of the problem, of course, but it was part of why he'd gotten attacked by a zombie dog.

all this is being processed and that faraway martin.exe look he gets lingers for a beat more before he blinks out of it.]

So...it's just going out to watch something. Right? [no zombie dogs.]

[The sneaking part is the most important part. At least in Richie's opinion, but then Richie has been sneaking out of his house since he was ten.]

Yeah, duh. And eat popcorn too, but that's built in. [He waves a hand.] Anyway, all those Heartless motherfuckers are gone now, [thank you Roxas for telling Richie just what those were called,] and shit's calm for once. Who knows when the next big disaster's gonna fuck shit up again? That's why you have to seize the opportunity whenever it comes around.

[as far as Martin can tell, this logic is very, very sound.

also, he doesn't want to annoy him with a million questions or doubts -- that's not very good friending, is it?]

A-alright. I can go with you.

From:

measuringdicks

Fuck yeah! [Pumping his fist into the air. Time to make a Battle Plan.] When do your parents go to sleep? Wait, shit, does Andy need sleep?

[She's not a vampire, but it occurs to Richie that he really doesn't know much else about how Andy's immortality works. For all he knows she doesn't need sleep.]

From:

darkov

Uh, she, she sleeps, yes. At night. They both do...

[you know, like normal people.

which they totally are.]

I mean. It's just...me and Nico here right now, so, since they're at work?

From:

measuringdicks

Hey, even better. [Richie mentally adjusts just how much of his money he'll be blowing on this educational trip, adding another person into the mix. Well, shit, they'll have to get the regular-sized bucket of popcorn.] We could go right now and then get you back here before they even notice you left.

Who's this Nico guy anyway?

From:

darkov

Uh, he lives here, too. In the house. He's nice. He, uh, he helped me see a movie once, too.

Not sneaking.

[he...talks to dead things. but maybe that's not appropriate to offer up as a recommendation.]

From:

measuringdicks

Well, if he wants to come along, tell him he can, but he better not say shit-all to your parents.

From:

darkov

[shaking his head:] N-no, he won't. He doesn't really...I mean. They don't chat much. [what with Rex being Rex and Andy..................................................being Andy.]

Um. Where do you want me to go?

From:

measuringdicks

I'm gonna come to you, just stay there. [A pause.] Although we're gonna have to figure out some way to get to the Byrd Theater besides my bike. Sure as shit, I can't fit three on it.

[He can barely fit two.]
