"Thhhank you." She huffed, grabbing her blankets and intricately burying herself in them. This time so she could see AND breathe. She tilted her head at him as he dragged a chair into the room. "I don't bite. Its a big bed. Are you sure you don't wanna just sit on the other side?" She asked, confused.

Ajax looked at Mercy with fake surprise. "You don't bite? Huh. I never knew..." he mused, then smiled slightly. "I can sit on the other side if you want." He shrugged, but immediately knew that was a terrible idea. His arms may work but his shoulders did NOT... so that REALLY hurt.

Mercy rolled her eyes at him playfully. "I might, if you keep talking like that." She teased. "Yeah, come on over. What do you want to watch, since you vetoed horror AND rom-coms?" She scoffed, reaching for the remote and tossing it on his side of the bed. Binx decided it was time for him to reappear, and hopped up onto the foot of his bed, watching Ajax with twitching ears.

Ajax got back up from the chair with a slight huff of air, sitting back down on the other side of the bed and proceeding to have a staring contest with the cat. He finally broke gaze and took the remote, tilting his head as if thinking. "Hmm... Die Hard?" He asked with a twinkle in his eye. "Or Lethal Weapon. Pirates of the Caribbean?" Ajax paused, stroking his chin, then snapping his fingers. "Oh wait, no, Top Gun." He was obviously teasing now

"The best Christmas movie ever?" She asked teasingly after his first suggestion, letting him have his little moment. She rolled her eyes. "Wow, Top Gun. I would absolutely NEVER have guessed that you would pick that. Ever. Not in a million years." She said sarcastically, kicking a couple of blankets off since she decided being buried was overrated. She kept a long one and laid it over herself, making sure he could reach it if he really wanted it.

Ajax looked at her with a snort, then chuckled at her second sentence. "Never? Huh. Well that one I was actually teasing about, I've watched it more times than anything else. A whole 2 times. I think I'll have to go with Dumb and Dumber." He finished with a dramatic flare of his hands. Ajax had listed two things, and everything above was action... so he had to bring out the one and only, slapstick comedy at its finest.

She rolled her eyes at him and propped herself up on some pillows, holding her arms out for Binx. He came trotting into her embrace and let her cuddle him with a small, curious mew directed at Ajax. (He is not giving up XD) Mercy shrugged. "Wow, twice? Even IVE watched it more than that. Either way, good choice." She smiled, watching him. Binx was watching Ajax curiously, licking his chops again and flickering his ears.

Ajax looked suspiciously at the cat, but made no move. -I'll have to deal with that later- he thought darkly, but his brain could not make a serious comment so that was a joke. "C'mon Mercy, when do you think I've ever had time for movies?" He snorted, then turned on the TV (that I'm assuming is in that room...) and finding Dumb and Dumber. "Now just think about who's Dumb, and who's Dumber." He joked with a teasing voice, knowing that could very well trouble Mercy the whole time. Those two idiots just one-downed each other the whole time... not one-up, one-down. They always thought up stupider ways to do things. "Well let's enjoy this reality movie," he muttered with a stifled laugh

Mercy huffed. "I don't know, I kind of figured you actually had a life besides cows." She teased. "I don't actually think I've ever seen it." She smiled, then curled herself up under the blanket, plopping Binx gently into her lap and settling in to watch the movie, smiling at his comment. "I'll do my best."

"A life besides cows?" Ajax scoffed, waving a hand in the air. "I don't know what you are talking about." He finished, his eyes sparkling. "Never seen it? Huh." He sighed slightly, making a clicking noise and shaking his head back and forth. "Poor lil Mercy." Ajax sighed, covering a chuckle with a snort/cough.
