No kids for her, thankyouverymuch. She was devoted to her cause (DOING THINGS that were TOO DANGEROUS FOR CHILDREN and studying and whatever). This was probably going to be her last outing with Duncan, she decided. School was starting up again and she would NOT be coming home again until.... Christmas, AT LEAST.

There, so anyway, onto the show. Mallory ushered Duncan into the seats she'd bought for them--- the fifth row from the front, it was, and in the middle, which was awkward to get to when everyone else was already seated, but worth the hassle because the view was so great. She unzipped her backpack once they were in place and showed Dunk something she'd kept from him, chocolate-covered almonds, because she wasn't sure if he'd like them or not. But he was welcome to help himself to a few as long as he munched them quietly.

Then she settled back as the lights went down and a sudden large, fire-breathing dragon (some kind of spell!) lit up the stage. Right, this was neat. Even kids would like it.
Don't even try, Mal, Duncan was shuffling and pretending he couldn't hear her. The popcorn idea was good. They finally got into the actual theatre where there was so many seats-- more than he could count. Duncan lowkey stared at the people they had to pass as they shimmied into the middle of the row.

Fine. He GUESSED he'd sit and watch the stupid show.

It sucked that people said sorry and you were supposed to just forgive them--WAS THAT A DRAGON? On the stage! It was breathing FIRE and everything! That got Duncan's attention, he shifted in his seat. His previously gloomy face lit up. His eyes were wide and full of magic and wonder again. "Mallory, look!" He whispered urgently, tugging on her wrist, arm, hand whatever he could tug. Just in case she somehow missed the huge performance in front of them. This was going to be the best day ever!
