[ Frowns a little because it seems like they hit an accidental bump with that one - but it makes sense. Thankfully being taller - sorry - has its perks in that he doesn't fall too far back from gingham's pace. ]
Gingham's great with animals but don't let him fool you about movies - I don't think he's seen like half my collection.

Fast and the Frenzied 3. Anything else in the franchise is garbage.
[ Said as he moves to push open the gate to a modest two story home. Still fairly recently moved into, so there's no outwardly personal touches. A small car sits in the driveway and the solar lighting trailing the sidewalk to the door is the only hint someone lives there from the outside. ]
[ unfortunately it probably also gives holy order vibes for the street or what not. or the house, those are very distinct solar lightings maybe. ]
Here we are. Dad's still got a few minutes at the school it looks like Aya might be here...?
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
[he's about to respond to more but instead here they are!! he keeps a normal grip on phoenix's hand as they head towards it - if he notices the lighting and what it reminds him of he tries not to let it show.]
Nice place. And - I'd love to meet her. No rush for your dad at all.
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
[ Phoenix nods - making a mental note to check back later - but now in front of the house feels a little less brave than he had five minutes ago. It's not even the first time he's been there or been inside, but he'd politely escaped pretty quickly before. ]
[ But following up the pathway all the same, trying to keep his attention forward and Not the ground ]
- Gotta say, being a teacher would suck. Once I'm out of school I just wanna go home. Do they even get paid for staying after?
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
Unless it's a special event? Nah. Totally sucks. But he loves it and says it's not about the money.
[ Off-handedly mentioned as he moves to put a handle on the door which! Opens because someone IS in fact here. He barely bothers to announce himself as he opens the door and gestures for them to come in. ]
Aya's the one you don't want to meet. You'll see.
Probably.
[ The inside of the house is unpacked, but some clutter remains of a family trying to sort out where things go. They're immediately greeted with a living room with a wall of books - mostly religious or scholastic books, but there's a small section of well-loved adventure/magic books for those who look. There's a large television and seating across from it, presumably for movie nights, but the other open space and the wall behind them has a large selection of family pictures. ]

[ he'll also go quiet a moment to listen instead. ]
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
Actually, pretty bad at school and banned from most sports. I'm too much for them.
[ because nebulous [ speedster blessing ]. the grin over his shoulder isn't quite a real one -]
What about you - not sports, so what is it? Adventure books like this one?
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully you at least enjoy the ones you aren't banned from?
[thinks about it a moment]
Definitely books. We actually met in a book club, so you're right that we have that in common. But I like animals, too. And movies.

Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
[ Or break it is the obvious other answer. ]
[ He snorts. ]
What's a favorite movie, then?
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
[shoves at phoenix's shoulder with a laugh, but as for the question]
Uh... Picture of A Woman Aflame?
Re: loosely 259 - text (I'M SORRY I DELETED THE OLD ONE)
I've not seen that one. You'll have to show me it one day.
[ and then he looks at jon ]
What about you?
- And I guess it's only fair to say that if it's a bad day I'm watching Love, Elliot so.
