"I don't get it either," she admitted honestly. "Plus, if I want to watch a movie, I'd just go to the cinema." She and her sibcousins went to the movies sometimes while the mums were out doing gigs. It got kind of boring watching the same shows over and over again, so they liked an outing when they could get one.
She was, however, eager to see what this movie was all about. It sounded like a good one, so that was promising! "So. Do you remember how we're supposed to set it up?" Because academia wasn't B's strong suit and maybe she hadn't retained as much as she should have. She could TOTALLY be on snack duty though. Looked like there were a lot of good treats to munch on while watching.
Alissa thought it was fun how Bronwen said the cinema. She would just call it a movie theater. Was cinema a British thing or just a fancy thing? She'd definitely heard the word even before moving, she just didn't know anyone who actually called it that. It did sound much fancier.
"Right! Though someone does it for you there so I suppose it wouldn't be much of an assignment." "I do! I brought a notebook!" She held up the little journal in her hand. She'd brought it for several reasons. First and foremost because she had jotted notes about the VHS player in preparation for the assignment. She'd also looked over her notes and the textbook just to be as prepared as she could be so she did remember the process and didn't necessarily need the notes, but it was better to be safe than sorry. The other reason was so that she could take notes throughout the movie if she felt like it. If any ideas for fanfiction struck her while watching she'd be able to jot them down.
