[ he does not outright say "why" like he wants to, so. progress. he also doesn't mind that she's talking as they enter the theater and he leads her up to the very back row of seats. ]
I mean I could tell you, but where's the fun in that? [ but he thinks about this. ] I think there are some things you might be able to relate to though. Let's put it that way.
[she flops down with him in the back seats. the delinquent teenager seating.]
Alright. [that makes her curious!] Then I will watch it.
[because he's right - being adopted by animals and then wanting to learn how to be human is... very much a thing that shenhe relates to. she'll chatter here and there through the movie, asking for context for some things, and i will tell you she loves the music? it's great.
she gets - a little emotional around strangers like me. weh.]
[ the good thing about shadow people is that they actually can't hear the players at all. so he doesn't mind talking his way through the movie, explaining context and giving examples of things. he might be humming along to son of man, actually, but nobody can prove that!!
even if he does just gently pat her arm during strangers like me, glancing at her briefly to make sure she's okay. but he will also continue whispering commentary as they go. ]
[she's fine! she just... like, understands the content of that song in a way that is a little too real.
she listens to his explanations, but goes quiet and focused when clayton demands that tarzan lead them back to the gorillas. it's kind of funny how into it she gets.]
[ this is about when he goes silent, too, given that this is important and also clayton's an asshole? except he's also keeping an eye on her and an eye on the screen. he has to wonder what she's really thinking about all of this, and he waits for the moment kerchak appears to attack and berate tarzan for betraying his family. me trying to remember if i remember tarzan well enough outside of the kh plot. fuck deep jungle. ]
[i had to look it up on wikipedia so you're doing better than me
at some point during this sequence she pulls her knee up to her chest, watching. she's so tense during the final fight with clayton, and when he gets tangled in the vines, she lets out a very curt good riddance.]
unfortunately, she says that and he lets out a bark of laughter that probably should get normal audiences to shush him. ]
That's about how I feel, too. [ mumbled right back to her. the movie starts to wind down though, tarzan and jane stay together and the credits begin to roll. it's only then that he looks over at her again. ]
Yeah. Guy kinda got exactly what he deserved in the end, you know? I don't think there's anyone in the world who'd disagree with that. But...I'm glad. I was hoping you would.
...things like movies and music are the best way to relate to things when you can't ever really explain it all on your own. I think it's kind of a nice way of remembering you're not alone in stuff like this.

I liked the song about wanting to know more about humans.
no subject
Kind of felt familiar, right? Wanting something like that.
