A small bead of sweat starts trailing from your temple, Kronii's hand digging through your bucket of popcorn, still full to the brim.
You look at her, laughing with childish joy at the TV. Her finger pointing at the movie playing at the screen. You were both nestled on the bed, legs underneath the weighted blanket and backs resting against her large daki.
It was movie night, you've just finished watching the Truman show. Kronii in her excitement want to watch another, begging you to watch another with her. You scratched your head and sheepishly answered yes. She gave you a long and loving hug in thanks.
The Land Before Time, it was a classic, Kronii was wearing an oversized blue shirt with puzzle pieces on it. It made her look like the child she was in heart.
It was a rollercoaster of emotions. You saw Kronii laugh, smile, gasp in shock, cringe in horror and even cry. You couldn't help but emulate those emotions in a more muted manner.
Kronii gives colorful commentary throughout the watchalong, the one that sticks itself into your head was the fact Ducky's voice actress was murdered by her stepfather. You didn't need to go to sleep with that particular piece of information in your brain.
In a flash it was over, the credits start rolling in. You were about to make a joke of a potential Land before Time series binge before Kronii's tired head rested on your shoulder.
You sigh, placing her gently on the mattress and tucking her in. You cleaned up, disposing of the buckets, brushing off any stray popcorn kernels and closing the T.V before you joined her.
Your heavy eye lids close, you can feel her wrap her arms and legs around you as if you were a large plushie. You start drifting into dreamy sleep with a smile on your face.
