In the height of summer, Daneca is in charge of planning the annual movie in the park. The set up is simple, all she has to do is find the supplies and figure out what movie to show. Which is why in late August, the sun starts to set. (It doesn't really "set", but Daneca calls in a favor with a certain god of the sun to dim the bright summer light to something better.

Something with ambiance.)

Stalls of food and merchants renting and selling blankets ring the park by the lake, lit by fairy lights and Chinese lanterns, and the screen is nestled beneath a pair of looming oak trees that offer a bit more shade for the movie. It's a double feature this year -- The World is Not Enough and Casino Royale. Someone couldn't decide between Pierce Brosnan's James Bond and Daniel Craig's James Bond and someone -- cough, Elena -- offered the brilliant compromise of "why not both?"

Both. Both is good.

So tuck in. Enjoy yourselves! Enjoy shirtless Daniel Craig, you know you want to.

Ethan leans against his elbows on top of the booth when Gin approaches next in line. There's no one behind her so he is in no hurry, and well, Helloooo there. He recognizes her immediately since he has been paying very close attention to all the other booths and those running them. Also, she's gorgeous. What was that about not flirting? What?

"Absolutely," he answers easily, lifting his eyebrow as he sees how her arms are folded across her chest. She does seem a bit unhappy about ordering a funnel cake. "You're the absolutely beautiful lady running the booth down the line, aren't you?"

It's asked with a tiny, curious smile tugging across his face.

"Flattery will get you nowhere," she informs him matter-of-factly, lifting up her hand and upturning it so that he will place the funnel cake on her palm. If he's been scouting the other booths aside from his then he likely also realizes that his has, by far, been the most successful one.

Nothing about this is okay.

"Is it flattery when I'm merely pointing out very true facts with no intent of going anywhere with them?" Ethan asks with a tiny innocent smile as his gaze drifts to her own. He bites down on his lip as she lifts her hand up in asking for the funnel cake. "Right. Down to business. I can appreciate that in a person."

He is very aware that he has had the most successful booth, and he figures that might be why she is upset so he makes certain the funnel cake is extra delicious before he sets it gently in its wrapper on top of her hand.

He bites down on his lip and tries not to watch her eat it to see if she likes it (okay, he is incapable of doing anything but watching to see if she likes it. it's the sole reason he cooks).
