'Okay' is exactly the word for the acting. Not terrible, but no one would be getting nominated for special awards for this movie. Ouka was ready to bet money on that much. But then, as she said, she had a different perspective from being in the business, and she fancies herself to have a discerning eye for quality in general besides.

"Yeah. I had fun," she repeats cheerfully. Because really, there's no sense in harping on the shortcomings. She's given her critique.

"You look like you enjoyed it, too."

[solaris9]

That's okay, special awards don't really much a whole lot to Goku. As long as you have fun watching it, that's all that matters, right?

And if Ouka also had fun, that's a good thing too. He smiles brightly.

"That's good! Hey, you wanna get ice cream or something? I know this place down the street. They've got the best cherry flavor!"

[phoenixflower]

"Ice cream! Yeah, let's go try it."

Ouka playfully hooks her arm around Goku's and leans a bit of her weight against him as they walk as a substitute for a hug.

"I'll need you to escort me home after that. I'm meeting a new actor tomorrow to show him the steps to a fight scene. I have to be at my best for a first impression!" She winks.

[solaris9]

"Fight scene?"

Goku looks very interested! He's kind of geeky about this sort of thing. He's an avid fan of action movies, and knows a few moves himself.

"What kind of a fight scene? Who's the actor?"

[phoenixflower]

"I'm not allowed to say yet. They haven't publicly announced the casting. The fight scene is between a guy with cybernetic implants in his leg to restore motor control to it and a tech gangster who hacks it to leave it immobile. It's quite a challenge to choreograph a fight for someone with only one working leg! But I like it. It's good to push your creative limits."

[solaris9]

"Whoa, that's so cool!"

Goku likes all kinds of martial arts. He does favor the kind that's all kick-ass kung-fu in the traditional sense, only because you can never get tired of people putting on a beat-down with the barest of forms.

Still, the flair and excitement of a robotic fight and hackers definitely adds some flavor.

"Maybe you can sneak me onto the set sometime?" he asks with his very best please? face.

[phoenixflower]

"Hm. Maybe~," she grants. "It depends on what's going on and whether the director is okay with guests being around. Tomorrow is no good. But I'll ask him about a visit!"

Bringing a friend to work does sound kind of fun, after all. She could show Goku her 'office' which is more like a sectioned-off area with a desk and an open floor space, and he could get a feel for how choreography gets integrated into a scene.

[solaris9]

"Cool! You've got like, the best job ever."

Well actually no...the best job ever would be to get paid for eating. Some people do, as he well knows. Goku has even participated in a few eating contests himself. But he's not sure he can make a living off of that.

They reach the ice cream shop, which is really just a tiny building with a few benches outside for sitting. He glances at the menu.

"Ooh. There's a new peanut butter and marshmallows flavor."

[phoenixflower]

Peanut butter and marshmallow? Yuck. At the very least, that needed some sort of complement to the peanut butter. Chocolate or strawberry or apple or oatmeal cookie. Even banana.

"Get what you like. I'm not eating that, though."

She walks down the display case, checking over the flavor options and considering pair-ups.

"I want one scoop of peach and one of raspberry swirl, topped with walnuts."

[solaris9]

Hey Goku loves the idea of peanut butter and marshmallow. He likes both, so why not together? So he orders that one.

"Yours looks really good too!" he says with the sparkly eyes he gets when looking at delicious things.
