Movie Night IV: Movie Harder

Who| Wash and anyone who wants to join
What| Movie night!
Where| The same lounge movie night is always in
When| A few days after Silent Horizon and No Sanity Clause
Warnings/Notes| They're watching Clue, because Tim Curry is the cure for everything.

It has been, to put none too fine a point on it, a shitty week. Everyone needs a place where they can relax and get their minds off what's happened; to that end, Wash figures it's about time for another movie night, and goes for a comedy this time. Sure, Clue is technically a murder mystery with a slow build, but he's pretty sure people will enjoy it as long as he's up front about it.

There's tables full of snacks and drinks set up, per usual. Extra blankets are piled on the arms and backs of chairs and sofas, because blankets make things better and therefore need to be available. There's a sign outside the door with the movie's title, MPAA rating, and a brief summary, along with a note at the bottom: Movie night is neutral territory. Might as well make it known up front.

Please, does she look like she's from the Halo universe?

"Dangerous para mí, güey." There's no charm in it, no easy rhythm to her voice; maybe it's nice, getting to speak so bluntly for a change to someone other than Gabe— but if it is, she's not stopping long enough to dwell on it. "If I was really so afraid of you finding out the truth about me— if I was the kind of person that'd kill for it? Believe me, I would have done something about it already."

And she wouldn't have tried to level a deal for a weapon she could've just opted to take instead.

"You say you only care about your friends, that you don't know me; I don't know you, Agent Washington, so if I seem a little unhappy about the fact that someone I'm not sure I can trust is holding me over a barrel for nothing in return, that might have something to do with it."

Her arms fold tightly across her chest, puffing out a critical little scoff that's punctuated by yet another eye roll— though it's a little less sharp than before. "Fine."

Fine, it's fair enough, provided he keeps his word on not being nosy.

"It's a deal."

Not the easiest one she's made in her entire life, but he's clever enough that she figured it'd be an uphill battle from the start. Besides, if he decides to start causing trouble, she'll at least have the benefit of seeing it coming. The support of her own friends...and his.

"So." She starts, eyebrows pointedly lifting, "Are we good here?"

She takes it from his hands, this time looking for all intents and purposes like she's going to hold onto it this time - not out of cruelty, but agreement. In her favor.

As is customary when it comes to her, apparently.

But his comment about Reaper draws out a mild scoff, the start of a smile or a laugh that's only half present when she's still settled firmly on her haunches. Maybe it won't be so bad, their truce. "You know if you really want to know my story," Sombra starts, pulling another sip, "You should ask Locus."

"This is the part where we get to have a normal conversation again, right?" Asked from behind the lip of that bottle, looking more herself than— well, cornered animal. Figurative fur smoothing out by careful, easing degrees.
