The shoes...he would liken to the Elder wand for the sake of his own sanity but sweet holy kneazle killing for a pair of shoes? Couldn't she just....make another pair....? Or....remove the feet? That would kinda be like disarming, wouldn't it?

The Gryffindor didn't have much time to ponder this however, as Genny went on to explain about theatres being outside on floating screens. "Muggle theatres? Floating screens? I didn't know they could do that sort of thing." Floating...was typically magic, wasn't it? That was something to ponder."I've never been to a theatre either but now I'm thinking I'll need to visit one during the summer." This class didn't count as a theatre. Hardly. Not even when the elves brought popcorn that he would also be having none of.

Merlin, he'd only looked away from the screen for a moment and now the witch was melting. What...how.....why....? Huh? "Do you think we should even question it at this point?" Melting. Wow. Right then.

The action in this movie sucked. It was simply terribly. Genny sat there with a what-the-fudge-was-going-on face directed at the screen. Thank goodness she had fun company or she would've gathered her stuff and left. Aaanyway. The floating screen theaters were totally a thing. "They could. They have electricity. It's almost like Magic but it makes sense." She said absently because the company on the screen were running away from monkeys and the 'evil witch' was holding her broom and running after them. "That is an insult to every broomstick in the entire world, past present and future." Like??? Ew??? That was NOT how their broomsticks looked like.

... wait, what did Blaise say?? "We can visit them together." She blurted out spontaneously. It'd be unfair if he went alone without her when she was the only who told him about it. Her dark brown eyes found his and tried to convey that sentiment.

Then the witch on screen screamed and Genny's attention was quickly stolen away. "Melted??? From water??" Just no. She scowled at the motion pictures. "This movie is so offensive to wizards." She shook her head at Blaise's question. "Not gonna question it anymore, nope." The movie was quickly coming to an end. And that good witch that looked like a badly dressed bride? Yah, SO not what good witches looked like. Genny gave her a disgusted look. "I'll be darned if they thought good witches looked like that, too." Ew! Too pinky and dumb for Genny.

There's no place like home, was one thing Genny could be on board with... if it wasn't uttered in that way. But alright, whatever.

Olivia's constant singing throughout the was one of those rewards. "Kindly put your cups on my desk so that they can easily be collected. Also ensure there are no cookie or other crumbs left at your desks. Thank you all so much for coming! Feel free to take some extra snacks on your way out and to thank the elves.''

"Ugh finally." Genny did smile at the professor when she ended the lesson. It wasn't like she was the one who wrote and directed the movie so it wasn't her fault the movie was generally offensive to wizards and broomsticks. Turning to Blaise, Genny's smile remained on her face, "I had fun watching this nonsense with you today, Blaise. We should do that more often." Her things were in her arms now, "See you around!"
