"I do," Bellona says, pulling one out and flipping it - heads, first, then tails.

"Hah!" Ruby says, grinning. "Romcom it is." And she didn't even have to cheat for it.

"Congratulations on getting your way."

Nudge. "You can have your way later."

"Oh, I'll hold you to that."

"Looking forward to it, darling."

Blush!!!

"Okay!" Bellona says, brightly. "Let's go get tickets." And stop flirting in ways that make her feel very weird.

"Sure. Tickets are good."

(Her alt's adorable.)

Tickets! And popcorn, and drinks, and candy, and other snacks... Apparently early morning theater isn't astonishingly popular, so they have the theater almost to themselves.

Ruby, of course, will be sitting beside Ellie.

Then perhaps El and Bellona can sit behind them.

"Sounds great." It'll keep Ruby from stealing her chocolate covered mystery berries, if nothing else.

The theater has a long, narrow table in between each row, rather than the rows all crammed together, so Bellona puts her drink and snacks there and settles in as the pre-show starts (mostly various vaguely related shorts).

Very convenient. El helps herself to some of Bellona's chocolate covered mystery berries.

She'll share with her sister, of course. Even if they're the best candy.

No use sharing anything less than that.

Of course. Only the best for El.

(The opening credits of the movie appear.)

And what do they seem to be in for? (This one, to put it lightly, near the bottom of El's personal ranking.)

Two college girls, best friends since early childhood, who decide to pretend to be engaged for some kind of legal benefit. They're very insistent it's not romantic, except it totally is.

Bellona, at least, seems to think the movie's funny. She figures out how to raise up the arm between their seats so she can snuggle into El's side as she giggles at the assorted jokes.

El is Suspicious of why Ruby picked this one, but it is agreeably amusing and Bellona is cozy, so it's fine.

Ruby actually seems to be getting a bit distracted, kissing her girlfriend.

That is, um, somewhat distracting, yes.

Bellona is Not Looking at their alts. Fortunately, the screen is large enough she can mostly get away with this.

Ellie wasn't that interested in the movie anyway.

Bellona mostly manages to ignore them, leaning into El and laughing more towards the film's end - when the protagonists, of course, get together with a dramatic kiss.

The credits roll soon after.

Happy ending's always nice.

"Yeah."

"This was fun." She stands, holding El's hand as they get their trash disposed of and head out.
