[ Grell yelps as she slides right off the counter - and while she would have caught herself decently on the floor, her socks cause her feet to wipe right out from under her.

Smacking against the cabinets, she deflates with a whimper!! ]

W-why... [ The redhead holds her head with a pout! ]

[spiderlilies]

[ With a tut of her tongue, Ann leans over to offer Grell her hands. ]

How does Chinese sound? We can share some rice and noodles. Eggrolls, maybe? [ With Grell on her feet, she pats the other lady's cheek. ]

[death_glare]

[ William does little to help Grell up, instead moving towards the phone to call up and order. There's a flyer stuck to the fridge of one he's had quite often. And thankfully, his parents have left a stash of cash for him to use for when they're away. At least they did that much.

So with a nod, he gets them on the phone, adding some crab rangoon and orange chicken to the mix. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ By the time he's done, Grell and Angelina have changed into their night clothes and chosen a stack of movies to go through. For the moment, they're just watching television, though-- well, partly! Ann is on the couch, busy combing her fingers through Grell's hair whilst beginning to braid it up. ]

Everything went smoothly, I hope? [ She casually inquires, sparing William a welcoming glance and smile. ]

[untodeath]

[ Though happily settled on the floor against Ann's knees, Grell looks up to see William with a grin!

While Ann wears a camisole dress and pull-over kimono, Grell herself wears a thin-strapped tee and cute matching shorts. She's attempted to keep herself warm with some slouch socks. ]

Will~♥

[death_glare]

[ William's evening attire isn't quite as interesting. Just a black tshirt over dark blue plaid pajama bottoms. He pauses once he enters the room, frowning slightly at the sight of Ann braiding Grell's hair. ]

It should only be around 20 mins or so.

[ Still, he takes a seat on the other end of the couch, pulling his feet up under him and wondering if he should go get some socks. ]

[untodeath]

[ Lips quirked, she hums once William has sat himself so far away. ]

In the meanwhile, are there some spare throws we could fetch? Pillows, even?

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann likewise hums, but with approval, as she ties off Grell's hair. The top layers are braided back, all pulled up into a high ponytail. She smiles in triumph. ]

Oh, yes. Those would be lovely. More likely to keep you in one place, as well.

[death_glare]

[ With a bit of a huff William gets up again, heading to the linen closet and finding a few quilts and some spare pillows. ]

Here.

[ He dumps them in Grell's lap, a pillow or two bonking her one the head in the process. That's when the door bell rings and he leaves the two redheads to sort out the bedding while he fetches the food. ]

[untodeath]

[ By the time he's back, Grell has draped a blanket over the couch, and lined its back with pillows, leaving a blanket over each arm rest for them to share. She drapes herself across with a happy sigh, grabbing one of the pillows to hug against her chest. ]

Yes, this will do.

[spiderlilies]

[ With a shake of her head, Ann stands to take some of the takeout off of William's hands, to begin setting out across the coffee table. ]

You got quite the selection, it looks like. We'll surely have some to hold us through 'til we get to the market, hm? [ A laugh. ]

[death_glare]

There will be left overs, I'm sure.

[ Some plates are brought out next, along with a few bottle of water. ]

This is all I have to offer for drinks. Unless either of you want to wait for tea.

[ It's obvious he'd rather eat than boil water, though, and begins to serve himself a few appetizers to start. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Snerking beneath her breath, she takes a plate to help herself, also! ]

Tea can come later, then.

[ Reaching over, she smacks Grell on the bottom. ]

Come on, come on~. I won't be serving you.

[untodeath]

Oh--

[ The smack actually does startle her, as she'd rolled onto her stomach to watch them from her new perch. All giggles, she rolls right off the couch to crawl over and grab herself a plate, too. ]

I didn't realise how hungry I was until now... [ Picking up some of the crab dish, she gives it a taste test resulting in a very satisfied hum. ]

[death_glare]

[ Settling back on the couch, William takes a moment think on how nice it is to have someone here with him. Two people no less. Sure he'll complain about something later on, but he has to admit, to himself, certainly not aloud, that it's relieving. ]

Did you choose a film?

[untodeath]

[ Once Grell has her plate piled up, she plops down on the couch right next to William! Humming an affirmative through a mouth full of noodles, she reaches over to grab the movie case off the top of their stack. It's a critically acclaimed classic revolving around one of the world wars-- one can assume that it was the closest thing she could find to a murder fest. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ With a shake of the head, Ann has a terribly amused smile. ]

Grell was awfully disappointed in your film selection, but this one will have to do.

[death_glare]

I didn't buy them. Are you really going to find a film about a muggle war interesting?

[ Sounds fairly boring to him, but he'll take put it on if that's what they want. Perhaps he should be grateful Grell didn't pick out some cheesy romantic comedy. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann shrugs, reaching over to offer a hand, suggesting that she's willing to put it on. ]

It's got raving reviews, it's dramatic, it's bloody... It's the closest thing we're going to get to keeping her interested.

[untodeath]

[ Pressing a napkin to her lips, Grell gives a muffled sound of protest. Finally, once she's able to swallow, she pointedly huffs. ]

That isn't my only criteria for a decent movie... It just helps.

[death_glare]

[ William hands the DVD case to Ann, expecting she knows enough about muggle technology to set everything up. ]

Then what else? Not one for comedies, I assume.

[untodeath]

Hn! [ That prompts her to tap her chin, eyes drifting wayward in thought. ] It depends on how the comedy is presented, and the type of humour. Comedies can be fun, so long as they aren't based on stupid dialogue.

[ A sage nod. ]

I like a thorough story line best, one that gets you so invested that you could watch it for hours and not get enough! Something with drama, romance, human nature at its worst--

[spiderlilies]

Well, here we go. You got her all riled up, and the movie hasn't even begun yet.

[ Exasperated, Ann shakes her head. Thankfully, the title starting up does jar Grell out of her line of thought, which has the other redhead covering her silent laughter behind a hand, as she moves to sit down beside the others. ]

[death_glare]

In my defense, it doesn't take much to rile them up.

[ With a shake of his head he settles down into the couch more. A blanket is pulled over his lap, along with a pillow which he uses as a makeshift table for his plate. The food keeps his interest far more than the film. So much so, that once he's done with his second helping, he opts to reach for a nearby magazine resting on the side table, ignoring the film entirely. ]

[spiderlilies]

[ Ann's appetite isn't quite as large; she nearly finished her plate, picking at the rest gradually, and grabbing another eggroll to snack on. It's a horribly boring movie, and she can sense everyone in the room slipping away-- but rather than avert disaster and call it off, she's occasionally eyeing the other two. Particularly Grell. ]
