"Yeah." Steve shrugged, uncertain still. "Maybe. I'll look into it."

Mageling 08-19-2014 04:45 AM

Laurel nodded.

"Where do you want to go next?" she asked, changing the subject.

Woofie267 08-19-2014 04:50 AM

Steve shrugged. "The museum closes in about ten minutes," he said, checking his watch. "It's not quite late enough for dinner, though."

Mageling 08-19-2014 04:56 AM

"Whatever you want to do," Laurel said. "It was my choice to come here, so now it's your turn."

Woofie267 08-19-2014 04:59 AM

Steve chuckled. "Alright." He was quiet for a few moments. "This way, then." He had an idea. He just had to see if his timing was right.

Mageling 08-19-2014 05:03 AM

Laurel nodded and followed him, curious. She wanted to see where he wanted to take them.

Woofie267 08-19-2014 05:04 AM

Steve took them to a little theater, and he bought two tickets with a grin.

"Just in time," he said with satisfaction, ushering her into a theater.

Mageling 08-19-2014 05:06 AM

"What are we seeing?" Laurel asked, raising an eyebrow a bit as she sat down in one of the seats.

Woofie267 08-19-2014 05:08 AM

"This theater replays old films," Steve said quietly as he settled in next to her. "From the war. Advertisements and all. I came here a lot the first few months."

Mageling 08-19-2014 09:17 PM

"I had no idea this was here," Laurel murmured as the lights went down.

Woofie267 08-19-2014 09:19 PM

"Not many people do," Steve said quietly. Then he settled back to watch, smiling a little at the familiar war-time ads.

Mageling 08-19-2014 09:23 PM

Laurel settled in as well. About half-way through, she realized that she was leaning towards Steve, her arm touching his on the arm rest. Thankfully, it was dark, so he wouldn't be able to see how brightly she blushed at that.

Woofie267 08-19-2014 09:25 PM

Steve didn't mind at all. He just stayed where he was, relaxed and enjoying the movie. And the company. He had definitely decided that he liked going out with Laurel.

Mageling 08-19-2014 09:40 PM

The old-time film was actually kind of fascinating. Laurel had never watched anything quite so old before, and it was kind of neat.

"They collected kitchen grease for the war?" she asked softly as some of the ads and commercials rolled. "Really?"

Woofie267 08-19-2014 09:41 PM

Steve nodded. "Yes. Anything they could use, really. Kitchen grease was a popular one."

Mageling 08-19-2014 09:45 PM

"I never knew that," Laurel said. "It's not something you hear about anymore."

Woofie267 08-19-2014 10:40 PM

Steve shook his head. "There are a lot of things you don't hear about anymore," he said. "Things that people would rather forget."

Mageling 08-19-2014 10:55 PM

"I'll bet," Laurel said. "It's still kind of surreal, seeing vintage ads like this." She paused when a quick war-bond ad started and a very familiar patriotic face appeared. "And then there's you."

Woofie267 08-19-2014 11:07 PM

"That happened a lot too, through the war," Steve said, his voice a little dry. "I got used to having my face all over."

Mageling 08-19-2014 11:38 PM

"I can imagine," Laurel said, watching the ad. "Wow, this is really kind of surreal. They really aired these?"

Woofie267 08-19-2014 11:40 PM

"All the time. They had shorts too, before the movies." Steve couldn't help but grin. "Those were kind of fun to listen to everyone else's reactions to those."

Mageling 08-19-2014 11:45 PM

"Maybe I'm just spoiled by good special effects," Laurel said as the film finished. "But that was really weird to watch."

Woofie267 08-19-2014 11:54 PM

Steve snickered. "It's very different from modern films," he agreed. "But it's what I grew up with."

Mageling 08-19-2014 11:58 PM

Laurel grinned.

"Did you see The Wizard of Oz when it came out?" she asked. "That was, what, 1939?"

Woofie267 08-20-2014 12:01 AM

"First picture I ever saw with color," Steve agreed. "Bucky and I both went to that one."
