Whatever would come, Olivia would face it but not at this moment. This moment was reserved for lightly bantering about their movie choice for this evening. However, this banter was now resolved as a movie was settled upon. Yay! The only aspect of said movie Liv disliked was the moment Mufasa died. Aside from the death being incredibly sad, seeing little Simba heartbroken and scared was just too much. “Aw, man!” Liv pouted playfully. “I guess I had better pace myself then.” The Chaser would be way too lazy to remake snacks. Truthfully, she had made enough for both her and Keighley and Liv realised she really did need to pace herself lest she was overcome with a bout of food coma.

She settled happily against her seat, hitting the button that activated the back massage. Back massages were lovely after being on a broomstick for an extended period of time. Absently tapping on Keigh’s leg, she focused on the screen.

Yes, whatever was coming can wait for a tad longer.

[Kolyander]

When that time came, Liv wouldn't have to face it alone. Keighley might be the one dropping some heavy news tonight but she would also be the one to hold the girlfriend together and assure her that all would be the same. But yes, the movie was now on and this blonde would agree that Mufusa's passing was the saddest part of the movie. It did bring Simba some new friends though and lots of personal growth. "That or at the very least share," Keighley laughed softly. Good thing there was more than enough snacks scattered around them both for several movies to be watched!

She settled very comfortably against Liv's side, her head leaning against her shoulder as she watched the movie. "Isn't Simba precious when he's first born! So small and sweet." Yes, she was one of those that would definitely want to pick up the tiny lion cub and give him a cuddle. Good thing this was only a movie!

As for those fingers tapping on her leg, Keigh gently took hold of Liv's hand and wrapped her fingers around the other young woman's giving it a small squeeze.

[FearlessLeader19]

Olivia would need all of that holding together when the time came. Whatever her reaction, she would need it very dearly. With regard to the snacks, of course it had been settled that there would be lots of sharing. It was the way it always was between these two. As Keigh leaned against her, Liv gently booped her head against the other girl’s.

“He is! Such a cutie.” And the way his parents and all the other animals fell in love with him the moment they set their gaze on him? It was priceless. “Small and sweet like you,’’ Liv remarked truthfully and bobbing her head. She was also making a mental note to research zoos of the next country she would be visiting for her Quidditch matches. And she’d even check good old Britain too! Olivia would find a zoo where there were lion cubs and she’d take Keighley there. Yes, it was a great idea and she was already excited to get started on her plan.

With their fingers now intertwined, Liv returned the gentle squeeze in contentment.

[Kolyander]

Keighley would hold Liv together for as long as the other girl needed her to. Even if that was for the rest of time. All the love and reassurance was going to be given constantly. Them sharing snacks though, Keigh knew she was going to be sooooo stuffed by the end of the night. There was never any shortage of yummy treats when they watched movies together. The gentle boop of Liv's head against hers made her laugh softly, the girlfriend was so silly.

"The cutest! I just want to pick him up and cuddle him." Now how precious would that be?! Cuddling a little lion cub. "Me? Are you still saying that I'm tiny?" The blonde pretended she had no idea that she was indeed still on the shorter side of the two of them. Oooh, how fun! They could go visit ALL of the zoos together! They could watch the lions and the Cubs play and it would be the best time! Consider this girl all for it and she didn't even know of the plans yet.

Keigh happily held Livvy's hand in her eyes, blue eyes fixed on the TV screen as the movie played. She really didn't want to ruin such a lovely night.

[FearlessLeader19]

If there was one thing Liv knew, it was that Keighley always took care of her heart. So she knew she was in good hands for any and all unfavourable news. And it was true that there was no shortage of snacks during movie time or any other time as both girls needed their calories to burn while participating in their respective sporting activities.

Liv wasn’t sure if Keigh would be allowed to cuddle a real lion cub but her reaction made Olivia far more determined that she get to see one at least once. “Yes, I am,’’ the older young woman replied, her eyes on the television but her voice full of humour. It was true: in her mind, the girlfriend was always a small one. Not that she minded as it just made Keighley perfect to cuddle.

Olivia simply kept her focus on the movie, enjoying each minute of it.

[Kolyander]

True. True. Very very true. Liv was so smart, so trusting, so beautiful. There wasn't anything about her that Keigh didn't love. This is why it was so difficult sometimes to share news that she knew was going to upset her. Yet, it was going to have to be done. Right this minute though, this young woman was going to eat those snacks like they were all going out of style.

Hmm. As much as Keighley would LOVE to snuggle an adorable little baby lion cub, she could understand if that wasn't possible. Annnnnnnnd.... GASP! Soft blue eyes went wide and Keigh couldn't keep herself from playfully poking Liv in the side. "It's not my fault that you're taller than I am." Nope, she wasn't going to laugh!

The movie was currently being watched in between some playfulness and lots of snacking. The time was coming however for her to finally speak up and tell Liv what she needed to tell her.

[FearlessLeader19]

No matter the type of news, especially bad news that involved either herself or Keighley, Olivia would always prefer to hear it from the girlfriend rather than anyone else. It might soften the blow. MIGHT, was the key word there. Feeling the poke in her side, Liv moved her gaze from the television to Keigh. She squirmed with laughter at the same time because… that tickled! She prodded the other woman back just once in the tummy. “Nope, it’s not. It’s all in the genes.” Liv grinned. “I’m quite happy you’re a shortie.”

It might be just her but the movie seemed to be going along at quite a fast pace. Then again, it was just about an hour and a half in length. Perhaps after she and Keigh were done here, Liv would finally get around to folding and putting away that load of laundry that had been done. Even with magic, the chore was a bothersome one.

[Kolyander]

When any type of news was to be given, Keighley would always step up and deliver it herself. No matter, good of bad. It was her news to tell and anything about it was going to come from her. A small smile formed on her lips at hearing Liv laugh, however when she was poked back in return well.. that simply resulted in her flailing about and giggling right away. "Hey!" Playful swatting hands happened to keep anymore pokey fingers from getting her again even though she had been the one to start this game. "Well that's good because I rather enjoy it myself." Being short had its perks.

The movie did appear to be moving along rather quickly. Perhaps that was because the chat that was going to happen soon was one she didn't want to have. Laundry, hm? Keigh didn't mind helping out with that. If they worked on the chore together it would get done twice as fast. The blonde glanced over at her love and smiled.
