She searched a bit before pulling out a compact box-like item and a thinner, rectangular one. She carried both back to her desk and returned to her seat, setting them down between Cutty and herself.

"Now this is a portable player. It allows muggles to play movies wherever they are." Moxley carefully flipped open the black boxy item to reveal a small screen and little set of buttons. "I've charmed this one so I can use it here so if you'd like, you can sign it out and watch your Bond movie." Which lead to the next item she had brought over.

Picking up the thin, rectangular case, Moxley opened it to reveal a disc. Then, after turning the portable player on, she loaded the disc, taking her time so that Mr. Mordaunt could see how it was done. "This is Goldfinger and it's one of the older Bond films but I think you'll quite enjoy it." It was also one of the more appropriate ones so she felt quite comfortable loaning it out. "You just press here to play it and here to stop. You can also rewind parts you'd like to see again by pressing this." The brunette went through the buttons, hovering over each one with her finger but not pressing them. "What do you think? Up for the challenge?" Of using the player, of course. He already seemed to want to see the film.

Cutty watched as the Moxinator stood from her desk and fetched the two items. What were they? Did they go over them in Muggle Studies? That didn't look like a film. Film's were big and flat. But then Moxinator turned on the device and explained what the items were. There were two components to muggle films apparently. The film itself and something to watch it on. Cutty thought this cumbersome, but he liked the reward that came with having a whole new medium in which to find out things about Bond.

Like a cat, Cutty's focus remained on Moxley's fingers watching the sequence and committing it to memory. The largest button, press the side, the tiny metallic record goes inside, shut it, triangle motiff, square, double triangle. Yes. He got this.

As the mini-player began to read the disc and the tiny screen showed the signature gun barrel view, music played to images that included but were not limited to a gold painted lady not unlike the one Cutty had in his dorm. He was quite fixated. But not so much that he missed Moxley's question. "Yeah, I'm up for the challenge. Where do I sign out for them?"
