Obsydien chuckled a bit on the nervous side, "I guess we'll be finding out then won't we," silver eyes scanned the room, "perhaps in one of the cupboards near the tv." He moved over near the television to look through the cupboards.

While Obsydien searched the cupboards, Illya crouches down and starts to dig through the various drawers in the room. "I found some.. But none of them are the Princess Bride..."

"Well there is a lot of movies here," silver eyes scanned the titles, "there must be Princess Bride, no one can dislike it, that is quite impossible," squatting down the cat looked down on the lower shelve, his eyes widening pulling a film off the shelf to exclaim, "I found it!"

Illya raises his head and smiles as Obsydien finds the movie, then stands up and walks over to the other.

Spinning around, Obsydien jumped when he saw Illya right there. Blushing a bit, the cat handed the movie over quickly and looked down, "Here."

Illya blinks, noticing the blush, and smiles slightly, taking the movie and putting it into the machine. "Thank you. So, do you want to sit on the couch then?"

The dark head nodded and he quickly made his way to the sofa, waiting for Illya to finish messing with the television and join him.

Illya finishes putting the movie in, then walks back over to the sofa and sits down next to Illya, waiting for the movie to start.

Obsydien smiled excitedly, he found The Princess Bride to be a grand mystery in and of itself, and decided to share his views before the film actually started. Scooting closer to the Angel and turning to fully face Illya as if to show him the excitement in his silver eyes, "I find it quite entertaining that the movie is played like a book being read. And even more interesting that the book is written the same! Do you know why?" It was clear that the cat new the answer, but wanted to make a short conversation.

"I find it entertaining as well, but no, I'm afraid I don't know why they were both written like that. Perhaps to get people interested in the story?" He asked, tilting his head.

"Well you know the little boy, Billy?" asked Obsydien glancing quickly at the screen, "Well he is the author William Goldman. And all the scene where he appears are accurate, and more so in the book. The Princess Bride was his introduction to books, his first and last great love of the literary world. This story claimed to be written by S. Morgenstern. Now I say claimed, because it is unprovable. No copy of this original S. Morgenstern copy can be found, but the Morgenstern attorney fights for the copyrights. And thus the abridged version by William Goldman." With each word said the cat had seemed to creep closer to Illya his tail curling and flicking in an odd sense of barely contained excitement.

Illya nods, listening to Obsydien explain it to him. "That IS interesting. If, however, someone could find the original S. Morgenstern version, what would happen to the abridged version by William Goldman?"

Obsydien nodded and smiled, "Well it is abridged, so there are all those interruptions by Billy about the kissing and whatnot," a bit quieter he added, "I mean I don't mind reading about intimates, and surely wish to engage in them at some point." finding his voice and focus again he put in a last comment, "Besides on the cover of William Goldman's version it says, 'S. Morgenstern's classic tale of true love and high adventure'."
[[I got The Princess Bride for Christmas didn't realize it would be this handy right off the bat.]]

Illya nods at what Obsydien said. "True. It is still a very good book. Makes a better movie too." He said with a grin.

A crackle from the television drew Obsydien's attention his ears moving to the tv before his eyes, "Oh look it's starting! I never had one of those video game things... or a tv actually." He turned to sit fully on the sofa, not realizing that he was practically sitting in the angels lap, while making shushing noises to no one.
