Good. Good. Good.

”Hi Ezra!” The youngling bashfully smiled at the compliment, ”thank you, I like yours too.” Dressing up for the movies was obviously not a requirement but Ms. Han wanted to look like the female in the film.~~Self insert.~~

"Uhm...thank you for joining me, Ezra." Etta sheepishly bowed, thanking him. Her anxiety subsided around people she deemed safe to be around and so far Ezra was among the select few she felt comfortable with.

”Would you like to grab snacks first?”She led back to the snack bar.”That machine over there makes slushies of different flavors. It’s a fluffy icy drink, it’s really good!” Henrietta did her best to describe what a slushy was for if Ezra hadn’t tried it before. ”I like mixing the raspberry and blue raspberry flavors together to make the color purple.” Etta giggled at her irrelevant fact."There's butter popcorn too! And sweets." She quite literally pointed out the plethora of snacks at their disposal. Now, was this necessary? Probably not, but she did so anyways.

Stop. Stop. Stop.

Etta stepped to the side to let Ezra explore and decide for himself and not overwhelm him. In the meantime she approached the slushie machine for her tasty concoction. Henrietta giggled to herself at the swirls she was making with the icy drink.

This was so exciting!

Ezra looked down at his casual attire and back at Etta, but grinned nonetheless at the compliment. “Thank you. I feel like I should have made more effort though.” He ran a hand through his hair, messing it all up. Did muggles put on their best togs to go to the movies? Ezra guessed it was a little like going to the theatre so maybe they did.

But it was too late to do anything about that now. Just as long as the Professor didn't dock points for it. “I should be thanking you! I'm sorry in advance for my ignorance over all this.” Using the VCR and messing with technology. But Ezra wanted to learn more than ANYTHING. Muggle tech was up there at the top of the list of things that fascinated the young boy.

His eyes went back to the snacks. Oh boy, of course he would like snacks first. He made his way over and helped himself to some popcorn, then his attention was brought to the slushy machine by Etta. “Oh my..” His eyes lit up. Setting his popcorn aside, he selected the biggest cup available and proceeded to fill it with a little bit of ever flavour. It was pretty rainbow colours at first, but would no doubt merge into a browny orange sludge in the warm theatre. Still, it would taste good! It was great having Etta here to point everything out because there was so much to take in that Ezra could easily become overwhelmed.

At last he looked over at the VCR machine and all the VHS tapes ready to go. He put his popcorn down by a chair and his slushy in the cup holder and made his way over to the technology. He ran his fingers over the top of the video player, as if expecting to feel magic radiating from it, but nothing. He beckoned Etta over.

“So we just put the square tape in the slot there and press the play button?” Was that truly it? How ingenious! Muggles were so clever. What he'd really like was to take it all apart and have a look at the inner workings of the machine.. but he was certain the Professor WOULD dock points for that.
