River: No. Haven't watched it. I'm not much of a fan of Christmas movies...
Truth was, after Rylan's death, he stopped enjoying or watching Christmas movies. He still went with Flynn to watch Rise of the Guardians 1 and 2 and the little prince, but from what he could remember, those were it.
River: But if you want to watch it, I'll watch it with you.
He watched Lucas carefully, he wanted to make sure he wouldn't fall asleep. The doctor had said he had to make sure Lucas wouldn't pass out or throw up.
Lucas: Nah.. I'll find something else. I am not making you watch me, and then having you watch a type of movie you’re not a fan of...
He opened the library of his streaming service, not wanting to push a Christmas movie on someone that was staying for him and didn't like that type of movie. It was a little sad though, as he himself loved everything about Christmas.
Lucas: How about Battleship? It's not like the best of movies, but it's entertaining.. seeing something I haven't seen before seems like a bad option.
His head was still quite painful, and he had suddenly wondered if he was allowed to take painkillers, only to push the thought away again, as it probably would not stay down right now anyway. His eyes rested on River, he was still thankful he had said yes to stay. His phone made a small noise, telling him his order was now in the making and would be with them in around half an hour.
Lucas: I'm really sorry about all this... I'm sure you'd rather be home. Oh.. and ehm.. where did Lobo go?
River noticed how Lucas was uncomfortable. Again he activated his calming spell as it did dull out most of the superficial pain. He hoped it would help Lucas.
River: I'm the one who should be sorry, not you. I caused this... I'm sorry... Just... I guess it's been too long a time burying this in a shallow grave and hoping no one notices. Now the storm has arrived and it reared its ugly head...
He sighed looking at the movie posters. Of course, there was Armageddon. Of course.
River: Lobos at the shelter, I can call him over if you want. The perks of a familiar is that I can teleport him anywhere I want.
