Leave me here to die

33 sucks.

Out of all of the numbers out there, it's probably the worst number by far. I mean, what's even the point of it? 32 is better. 31 is better. 33 is absolutely pointless in its existence. And it's an odd number. Odd. Odd numbers suck, but 33 is the suckiest odd number out of all of them.

There's nothing even ironic about it. I can find irony in every other number. But not this one. It's like anti-irony in its most natural form.

We're wizards, we should be able to magically take this number out of existence.

Someone invent a spell for that.

Oh. [Awkward.] Yes, of course. I remember now. You'll have to forgive me, pet. I've lost my memory in my old age. [He gives him a sweet smile so he can't possibly be mad.]

Err. Yes. Well, she wanted me to keep it a secret and it would've been downright awful of me not to. Besides, I knew she'd tell you eventually. [He hums.] Plenty of people are irrationally biased, it's a fact of life.

Sparkle? [He crinkles his nose as he looks around the theater.] If it's so terrible why are we watchin' it?

[Bro isn't in the proper space to be angry, and besides, he knows that a lot of what he says to Murdoc goes over his head, so honestly he isn't going to hold it against him. He just lets out a small laugh, giving Murdoc a nudge.]

It's fine, I'm not actually upset with you. But still, tell me shit in the future.

[He shakes his head. No, Murdoc, he didn't say it was terrible. He said it was stupidly amazing. There's a difference.

Okay, it's kind of terrible, but shhhh.]

Because it's the worst series in the world and that's what makes watching it ironic.

[wwistful]

Well, we weren't this close then, were we? Would've been a little impractical. [He gives him a little flick.] In the end it's her place to tell you, not mine.

[He doesn't look as if he understands that, but he nudges Bro back and gives him an expectant look.] Whatever you say, birthday boy. Will you lead the way, then?

[plushaeusrumpified]

[Bro gives him a flick back, sticking out his tongue, before shrugging.]

Yeeeah, let's go get our tickets.

[He leads the way through the throngs of teenage girls, standing in line and finally making his way to the ticket booth. Once the tickets are in hand, he takes Murdoc's hand and pulls him inside the theater.]

So, you want some popcorn? Nachos?

[wwistful]

[Murdoc rolls his eyes dramatically, letting Bro pull him along like he's a dumb dog. But it's alright, it means he can stare around in confusion without worrying where he's going.

God, everything is confusing to him. Hell, that question is fucking confusing.]

Ah.. Uh. [He just gives Bro a wide eyed stare, not knowing what the hell he wants.] You pick.

[plushaeusrumpified]

You know what? Screw it. Let's get both.

[Because why not? He has money to spare. And it saves Murdoc the trouble of having to decide. What an adorable man, Bro thinks. So far removed from his element that he can't even make the decision between popcorn and nachos. What a fucking kawaii.

So he orders a large popcorn and nachos for both of them, along with two large drinks. And some candy. Lots of candy. This is gonna be the best goddamn movie ever.]

Help me carry this shit, man.

[wwistful]

Alright.

[That's all he can really get out. God, he feels out of place despite looking the part. He feels like somehow people know there's something weird about him. Probably because he keeps looking around like everything is fucking magic.

He snaps out of his daze as Bro addresses him, looking up at him and over at the snack hoarde with wide eyes.]

Are you hungry? [He asks with a sly smile, moving in to take some of the food.]

[plushaeusrumpified]

[It's also probably a lot to do with the fact that he's a grown man going to a teen girl movie, let's be honest there. They probably think he's some creepy old man or something, oogling the pretty girls.]

Kind of, but since you wouldn't pick I'm just getting everything. And thanks.

[With the food in hand, he leads Murdoc towards their theater.] Have you even ever had nachos or popcorn? I don't fuckin' know what wi- [Oops. Not supposed to say that in public.] Uhh, y'know. I don't know what you guys eat.
