[ Rolling his eyes, both at the criticism of his manners, and at the grin she's sporting there. She's making some progress with him, so who knows, but for now... ]
No. Get moving.
[ No... no working on manners or no playing? He doesn't seem to want to clarify. ]
[She knows he'll ignore it but Rahzel holds her hand out anyway]
Sir, yes sir! Let's go to the park or something, get some of that fresh air in the lungs. Maybe we'll run into a rag tag of teenagers being dumb and angering ghosts.
Or ghouls or vampires or sometimes swamp people? You know, they're just cruising along in their crappy but tricked out van and all of a sudden the leader's ascot shivers because it senses a mystery. So when they start to investigate naturally the ghosts or whatever get pissed, right?
[He can, once again, always count on a crazy explanation as they walk along this lonely road]
[ Narrowing his eyes. He's never seen what she's referencing here, but considering how oddly specific it is he's 99% sure it's another moment of her just making things up for the heck of it. ]
Hm.
[ Not a lot of response to that, but it's a skeptical hm, the sort you'd give when you're basically saying "you're full of bullshit and we both know it." ]
[She recognizes this sound as his 'bullshit suspicion ping' noise. So she raises an eyebrow at him in return, solemn faced]
You didn't just spend all your times with that game, did you? Surely you've seen the odd horror movie here and there. The ascots are the only reason some of them make it out alive until five seconds before the credits roll.
[This girl actually clucks her tongue like tch, you poor boy, you sad boy, the classics stolen from your pixel loving heart! She's even shaking her head.]
Yup, one more thing added to the list of things we're going to introduce you to! The ascot is a dying breed. It's underestimated these days which is pretty sad...probably why most of these movies end with everyone dying. What horror movies did you see?
[ He actually has to stop and think about that for a moment. What horror movies had he seen? One about a murderer who had been completely human, another involving a monster of some sort, and then one about an evil spirit. ]
[She nods slowly; sounds about right. He seems the type to just sit and watch and pout- er, not spend too much time on the details if they don't interest him too much.]
No surprise here, a lot of the stuff is pretty generic. Like Sharknado, can you believe that? Ghost Shark was an absolute disgrace. Did any of those movies you watched involve sharks?
[ He actually stops to think about it. Neither of those titles sound like things he's watched before. He's seen things with sharks, or at least he's fairly certain he's seen a movie with a shark in it before, but not as the main plot point. ]

The next thing we're gonna work on is saying please and thank you. For now, we play.
[No she can't stop the triumphant grin spreading across her face]
[action]
No. Get moving.

Angering ghosts?
[ She likes talking, maybe she'll expand on what she means by that. ]

[This boy doesn't need Jesus, he needs Scooby]

[ It's true. He honestly hasn't seen that many horror movies at all, but he has spent some time watching movies in the past. ]

I don't remember the titles.

Not really, no.
[ He's not sure why he's bothering to answer. ]
