Movie Night VI: Direct to DVD

Who| Wash and anyone who wants to join
What| Movie night!
Where| The same lounge it's always in
When| After Time Ripples, Mind Slayer, and Wash Dies At The End
Warnings/Notes| Yet another classic!

It's been an odd few weeks, to say the least. Wash barely waits to be out of the hospital before he heads to the lounge to set up a movie night. He's had a request for a classic, and he'd managed to get in an order for the film before everything had gone batshit insane, so it's already arrived and he's just about ready to go.

The usual snacks and drinks are set up, along with a few mugs and goblets that are a little closer to theme. There's also the usual sofas and couches, draped with blankets and with bean bag chairs strewn around around the room. The usual sign hangs outside the door, with the movie's MPAA rating and a brief summary of the movie's plot, along with the usual note: Movie night is neutral territory.

The movie tonight, of course, is The Princess Bride.

"...can we still be- you know. Bros?" Even if the way he sets his cheek to Locus' shoulder, the curl of his fingers around the angle of his hip is distinctly un-bro-like. With this hanging under everything they do. The awareness that if not for York being too chickenshit to get his head together, if not for the inevitability of it's ending in the most anticlimactic way possible, that they might give it a shot? It's a weighty thing.

But the calm camaraderie. The reassurance that this is real, this calm haven he's found at Sam's side- it's not one that he's so willing to give up just yet.

And the corner of his mouth ticks upwards before he turns his head, chin resting atop York's head.

"Of course."

What does he know? So far as he's aware, this is simply how friendship is with York. It's always been tactile and testing of boundaries until they overlap. It's always been a certain level of closeness.

They still have this. It's not going anywhere. So they'll both manage. They'll be alright. They'll just never really find out what might have been otherwise.
