So once they left they were all carrying food, mostly candy. They went into the theatre room, Dick holding the door open with his foot and walked down the short dark hall to the open seats. They chose some seats smack dap in the middle of the row second to the top. Dick sat with Damian to his right then Tim then Jason. They settled down, passing food and candy to each other.
They each had a jumbo cup of mixed Icee and two huge buckets of popcorn. Also seven nacho trays (since Jason insisted he could eat at least two himself, easy) some pretzels, churrors and pretty much two of every candy available as well as ice cream. They thought it was a good idea to eat the ice cream first.
"Are you sure that none of you need to go to the bathroom?" Dick said. "Damian?"
Damian scowled. "I am fine Grayson!"
"Jason?"
"I'm good."
"Tim?"
"I'm going." He said as he got up and went.
Jason rolled his eyes and noticed Dick's pointed look. "What? I'm fine."
Now Dick rolled his eyes. "You're going to either leave in the middle of the movie or take off running right after it ends. Both of you."
"No!" they both pouted.
Just as the lights began to dim Tim came back. They began to show trailers.
"That looks good." Tim whispered excitedly at the trailer for "Oz" came out.
"That looks adorable!" Dick said to "Despicable Me 2"
"I agree!" Jason smiled.
"They seem . . . alright." Damian muttered. He was holding the cat Tim got him in his lap as he was cross-legged and was surrounded by different bags of candy and had tell a tale signs of chocolate smudges on his cheek and gummy bear pieces on his teeth. He took a long sip from his Icee. Dick grinned and used a napkin to wipe his cheek. Damian was staring at the screen and slightly flinched away in annoyance and growled but Dick held him still as he wiped.
Jason chuckled as he pretend to wipe something from Tim. "You have something there Babybird."
"No- Jaybird stop!" He slapped his hand away but was laughing. "I do not!"
A short film played. It was black and white and no talking. It had to do with a guy and girl and paper planes. In the end they were together.
"That was so cute!" Tim whispered fiercely with a cheeky smile and Dick nodded with a sigh.
Jason rolled his eyes at the two romantics.
Damian was silent having been very curious.
Soon the actual film started. It was an interesting start and Damian was very curious and entranced. He was proud to say he remembered and recognized some of the games just from his recent experience in the arcade. Dick enjoyed it thinking it was very different. Jason was finding it depressing so far because he could relate; he knew how it felt to be the one left out and the person no one really wanted around. When it showed him at the video game bar he snorted at the similarities. Yes he would most definitely be there.
Tim had been watching quietly but was observant. He leaned his head to the right slightly to Jason who had his arms spread over the back of the chairs on either side of him. "I know what you're thinking, but you are wanted and you are needed. You aren't the bad guy. You just need to let people in."
Jason's eyes strayed from the film to meet Tim's ever blue eyes with his deep green ones. He didn't say anything but he knew he didn't have to, to get the message across to his Babybird. He read him loud and clear.
Tim sighed and leaned into Jason slightly more.
When the part of the shooting game came out Dick jumped up and cried. "That's the girl from Glee!"
"Yeah!" someone called back from a few rows in front.
Dick blinked then sat a bit deeper in his seat. "Creeper." He muttered.
Jason and Tim silently chuckled.
Then the techno music started. "Clubbing music!" Jason whispered yelled. He began to move his feet as if shuffling and move his arms as he tossed his head around.
"Jason!" Tim muttered.
But Dick grinned. "Aw hell yeah. Don't make me pop out my running man!" he began moving his arms and feet as if doing so while sitting down.
"We just need some glow sticks!"
"And whistles!"
"You guys are embarrassing!" Tim cried covering his face with his hands in shame.
Damian, who had gotten deeply focused in the movie, was snapped out and glared at his brothers. "Shut up before I castrate the both of you here and now!"
That shut them up. Tim couldn't help but smile happily.
Damian nodded satisfied then fell back into the movie.
Again they watched in silence except for the occasional munching or slurping sound. Dick watched Damian from the corner of his eye. His face was captivated by the animation moving across the screen, his jaw slightly slack as he held that cat close to him. Dick smiled and gently put an arm over his youngest brother.
It wasn't till the scene that the racers attacked the other racers car that he really moved. He flinched as cute little girl racers destroyed another girls car. But then he smiled a bit when Ralph jumped in to help her and he leaned slightly into Dick.
"What's wrong?" Dick asked.
He shook his head. "That's kind of what happened today to me."
"Yeah, but someone helped you to, right?"
Damian blinked and nodded. He didn't seem to notice but he was sitting closer to Dick. Dick had a gentle smile as his arm around Damian's shoulder snuggled him closer.
They laughed and awed, giving snippy comments here and there.
"Dick is Fix-It Felix!"
"Shut up Jason!"
Or
"Can you pass the nachos?"
Or
"That was sad!"
"Don't be sad Timmy!"
Or
"I really have to piss!"
"I TOLD YOU!"
"SSSSSHHHHHH!"
But all in all they watched together and happy. Little by little Damian had been leaning forward watching intently. Tim or Dick would gently pull him back into their arms but he would just get free and lean forward again. Jason easily had an arm over Tim's shoulder and was close underneath him and Tim didn't argue.
"I knew it was Turbo!" Tim said rather smugly.
Jason and Dick snickered.
As it was ending Tim whispered. "See? You are a hero! No matter what." He smiled.
Jason gave an appreciative smile and Tim quickly pecked his cheek but turned around when Jason tried to swoop in for more. He smiled as Jason gave a rueful huff and instead kissed his silky ebony hair.
The movie ended with its final note and the credits started.
Damian blinked several times and had not seemed to notice the smile that had graced his face. Dick grinned as he jumped up and arched his back in a stretch (though most people couldn't stretch that far back) as he often did. "Did you like it little D?"
Damian gave a slight smirky smile but nodded. "Yes, it was very entertaining."
Dick grinned wider and looked at his other two brothers that looked rather snug together. "You guys liked it?"
"Yeah it's about time people make a good video game movie." Tim smiled.
Dick rolled his eyes.
Jason gave to thumbs up. "It has my vote for the Emmy's or Grammy's, whatever. But now" he clapped his hands as he jumped up and motioned to Damian. "Damian! To the Bat-room! The Porcelain throne awaits!"
Damian hastily jumped up with his cat in hand. He hesitated for a moment realizing what Jason was intending but then did jump on his back with a grin and pointed forward. "Onward!"
Jason took off running through the crowd with Damian piggy backing.
Tim face palmed and Dick yelled angrily. "I FREAKIN TOLD YOU!"
They walked out with the rest of the crowd Dick grumbling how they never listened and Tim was shrugging it off. They decided to wait for them near an exit.
In the bathroom Jason was letting out a very satisfied sigh. He gave a content smile as he zipped up his pants. He smirked as Damian had put the cat on a small wall that divided them and he to had sighed as he zipped himself up. Jason was washing his hands and was drying when Damian came, cat on his shoulder, and did as well.
"So you like the movie kid?"
Damian nodded. "It was very satisfying."
Jason rolled his eyes. "So you liked it?"
Damian gave a grimace but it turned into a light smile. "Yes I . . . liked the movie. A lot."
Jason nodded as he waited for him to finish washing his hands and they walked out. They began walking towards an exit when Jason caught sight of another theatre room and smiled. "Wanna see another movie kid?"
Damian paused and looked at what Jason was hinting at, the movie Django was just about to start. He grinned. "I see no reason why not."
They walked to the entrance where a worker was posted checking tickets. Damian gave Jason's jacket a tug in warning but Jason merely strolled up to the man and put a twenty in his front pocket with a smile, patted it, then walked in with Damian. Damian couldn't help but smile and gave a nodded to the worker who nodded back and looked away.
