It's Finally Movie Night!

[goodviberations]

This is it, guys. Finally, finally they're going to have the movie night they've been talking about for months. It's been a rough few weeks on most of them, and Cisco is determined to cheer everyone up. He'd stumbled across a 40s movie theatre- the kind that would have shown nickelodeons back in the day- and decided that it was the perfect venue for them. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out, and they could set up a snack table in front of the small stage beneath the screen.

Party time, here they come.

"Hey Frosty." Something is clearly up. She's not quite Frost and not quite the Doc judging by the white streaks in her hair and the way she's carrying herself. Stiff, guarded.

.. a hell of a lot like Snart on bad days.

"What's up with you? Pilot's been over for fire baths every other day."

[snowandfrost]

As soon as he mentions Pilot, Caitlin frowns a little, worried.

"He has? I could have sworn I kept the fire bath lit for him at STAR Labs and that he had plenty of red meat to eat for meals."

She's tense, she knows it, but Caitlin hopes that she could pass it off as her normal self rather than anything being wrong.

[bringstheheat]

"Maybe, but he's been unhappy," he points out. "Wrestles with Haircut before getting a bath and heading to hang with Robin Hood," he jerks a thumb over to where the dragon is curled up on Oliver's shoulder.

Neither of them look particularly happy.

"I ain't seen him this unhappy since Red's engagement party."

[snowandfrost]

Someone else from her time period? He probably means Barry and Iris' rehearsal dinner.

She does feel a little bad that Pilot had been commuting back and forth between them. Sometimes with Oliver's notes. Caitlin had taken those notes and set them on the desk that she had. Schroedinger's note. If she never opens them, she wouldn't need to face a let down, right? And she had meant to ask Oliver when he was from. But that sort of thing was too strange to just randomly bring up.

"What happened at the party?"

[bringstheheat]

"Robin Hood must've gotten all sappy or something stupid like that," he shrugs. "Party all but ended when his girl yelled for everyone to hear that she didn't wanna marry him, now or ever."

Should he have mentioned Oliver's humiliation or Felicity's upset? Probably.
But Mick isn't what you'd call discreet.

"Haven't seen him look this gutted since."

[snowandfrost]

"She what?"

Caitlin's eyes widen at the admission. No, certainly the last she had heard of anything or done regarding the big wedding was just returning from the Bachelorette Party from Amunet Hell. But ruining her friends' happiness by shouting out loud for everyone to hear? And with how discreet Oliver is?

Frost all but roars to life and Caitlin goes to sleep.

[bringstheheat]

"Was pretty loud too. Brought the entire thing to a halt for a minute or two." Mick shrugs as he reaches for another empanada. "So what's up with you two anyway?"

What? He may as well ask Frost and get a more direct reply.

[snowandfrost]

"Us two? Nothing. Him and Caity? She's playing that game where she gets to conveniently hide away."

Frost snorts and steals the empanada right out of his hand.

"Thanks, hothead."

[bringstheheat]

He shrugs and gets another for himself. "Mhm. Seems like him and the Doc got some unresolved issues and the dragon don't like it." Although Frost's appearance does get the attention of first Pilot and then Oliver himself.

[snowandfrost]

"Or maybe the unresolved issue isn't between Caitlin and Oliver." Frost gives a shrug. "Pilot is one of those caring types. So maybe he picked up on that little shoutout. And wants Oliver and Felicity to kiss and make up. Ever think about that?"

She glances over to where the drinks are, then back at Mick.

"You really wanna talk about this right now?"

[bringstheheat]

He shrugs. "You don't buy that any more than I do. There's a reason Doc was goin' white without any sign of a threat around."

Aside from Mick poking at things he should probably leave well enough alone but..

"Besides, if that was the case, Pilot would be going between Robin Hood and her, not Robin Hood and you two."

[snowandfrost]

"And here I thought you all liked me for my sunny personality," Frost replies easily. "Pilot hasn't met her yet so I would think that he would want to ask us to help him communicate with the right humans." She really thinks that it all could be easily resolved.

"Besides," she says as she takes a bite out of an empanada, "I read your book, too. When are you going to talk to Cisco?" she drawls, glancing over his shoulder at the meta in question.

[bringstheheat]

Frown.
"What book?"

Sorry Frost, he's totally going to play dumb on this one because as far as he knows, nobody has keyed in to the fact that he'd written that book. The only person that should know is Cisco and if Cisco told the Doc? His roomie was gonna wake up bald.

[snowandfrost]

"Well?" She's going to blatantly ignore his question. "What's going on between you two? Might be a lot more interesting to hear it right from the source instead of hearing other people talk about it. Heard he was right by your side throughout the whole mess we just went through."

[bringstheheat]

"So? He's a friend. That's what friends do ain't it? Same way you sat with Robin Hood while he was in medical." Don't think he didn't see you, Snow. Because he did.

[snowandfrost]

Frost watches him carefully.

"Just a friend, huh? All right. Say the tables were turned. He's in the hospital bed, Mick. Where are you?"

[bringstheheat]

"Guess that all depends what or who put him there."

Because if someone did? Mick would have a rather strong reaction. But this is all 'what if' so he can simply shrug it off. Right? Right.

[snowandfrost]

"Guess it would, wouldn't it?"

She glances back at Oliver and Pilot.

"You'd do what he'd do, Little John. Heroes aren't the only ones that get the happy ending. But what do I know? I'm just a reformed villain."

[bringstheheat]

A smirk as he salutes her with his beer. "Takes one to know one, Frosty. Now go talk to him before your dragon gets more invested in what you say isn't going on."

[snowandfrost]

"I will."

She grins back.

"Soon as you go talk to him before I get more invested in what you say isn't going on," she dares.
