Prescribed Recreation part 3: Chillax'n with a Vengeance

[fleurdesel]

Who: House 44, House 46, House 3, Saori, Steve Rogers, and whoever wanders in
What: Movie night on the beach
When: September 9th, in the evening
Where: The Beach
Summary: After an unfortunate tussle with a Chaos God, work on a farm, a swarm of refugees and stress piled upon stress, sometimes all anyone wants is to sit back and watch classic movies.
Rating: PG for possible adult language
Something that everyone could agree on was this: the past three weeks had been several shades of stressful. What they needed, what they all needed was something mindless and relaxing shared in the company of those they care for in a neutral environment. The beach works well enough, and it's not that far a trip for anyone involved.

[A brow raises as he looks at the steak for a moment before shrugging and accepting the plate.]

Yeah, sure. [He cuts a piece off and takes a bite, chewing it slowly.] It's really good!

[thefinaljedi]

Really? Great.

[Luke smiles, glad his cooking is a success]

Its Dewback, a kind of reptile from my world. Tastes a lot like beef, I think.

[neversurrender]

Yeah it does...[waitaminute.]

Did you just say...reptile?

[thefinaljedi]

I did. I'm from a desert world, remember? Reptiles are more common.

[neversurrender]

Yeah...right. Of course.

[But now he can't get the imagine of eating a lizard out of his mind.]

It's just not what I'm used to I guess.

[thefinaljedi]

Does it taste different, now that you know what it is?

[Luke chuckles. Earth people thought a lot of things were strange...]

[neversurrender]

[He takes another bite and chews it slowly.]

Not...really. It's still good.

[thefinaljedi]

Good. Its just an ordinary food on Tatooine. Actually, the reptiles in the first film I lent you, the ones ridden by the Imperials? Thats what this is.

[neversurrender]

So they're like domesticated life stock? That you can also ride around on...

They sound useful.

[thefinaljedi]

Extremely. A bit more difficult to care for in temperate climates, unlike Hamal. A dewback would freeze to death in the winter.

[neversurrender]

What's Hamal?

[thefinaljedi]

Its what Ami named the Bantha. Its a star visible from Earth as well.

[neversurrender]

Yeah? Which one? [He doesn't spend a lot of time looking at the stars, but maybe this way he'll have one to look out for. Once he gets back home anyways.]

[thefinaljedi]

Its in the constellation Aries, Ami tells me.
