"Fanart ....? Like people paint pictures of her or some s**t? That's pretty ********' kinky Jack." The banter was indeed distracting her, even if she knew in the third movie everything turned out fine. It was really all the shots of Arwen's crying face that were doing her in.
More cheekily she said, "Nah I'm good, I'll stick to ********' real people. Don't need your fetish pics."

Chel declined the beer, but after a moment or two she moved it to her side of the couch. She was unsure if she was doing it in case she might need it later or to keep it away from Jack.
"Oh we're about to sit through like a ********' hour of battles." Not that Chel, the sun, was complaining. "Uhh 'cause they're ancient and powerful? I dunno."

"Your loss," was all he said with a shrug. The scene was finished, the lovers were parted again.

Jack took notice with a flicker of his eyes, but he was content for now with his current bottle. "Oh, good. S'funny, Owain is a chatterbox always wanting to do s**t, while these guys take a ******** hour to say their names and just want to be left alone. If any of them are really like that—tree things, I mean—I guess I got lucky with this guy. At least he's friendly. But also annoying," he added hastily to an unspoken glee from the giant. "Very annoying, make no mistake."

"Seems like you surround yerself with annoying people." She used the adjective as a positive descriptor. "You got real lucky with Owain. I'd trade any day."
Tenebrae didn't even rise to the insult.
The tree ents approached the destroyed forest, completely decimated by Sarumon's forces. "Look away, Owain might start cryin'."

The Battle
Finally after way-too-much-exposition the battle was beginning and Chel was restless. It was weird for her to think the last time she'd seen this she had been a completely human kid, and now she was essentially performing the same duties as these actors.
Her fingers twitched a little under Jack's with every arrow that was released and buried into the orcs. She missed her bow too much. It was unfair.
Quote: The battle of Helm's Deep begins between the Uruk-Hai and Rohirrim with Aragorn and his companions. Explosives are used against the weakness in the wall, allowing the Uruks to breach the fortress. Aragorn leads Théoden, Legolas and the remaining Rohirrim to attack the Uruk-hai army, allowing the Rohirrim's women and children to escape into the mountains.

Chel said nothing, but finished the end of her bottle and moved Jack's arm until it was wrapped around her. Payback.

"Guess I do, huh? If I didn't, I'd be very bored." He took a few big gulps of beer and exhaled afterwards. "Probably should be more grateful to Tenebrae, though. He didn't have to bond with you and save your a** when I don't. And he is a pretty sweet weapon. I would've rather had long range myself."
Chel's warning came too late; Owain grew mildly distraught, caught between knowing it wasn't real and sympathizing with the wails the ents made. "Don't be a such a big baby," he said to the air. "Look, they're crushing s**t with boulders just for you."

The Battle
Finally. If there was one thing he enjoyed, it was the fight choreography and flow of battle in The Lord of the Rings movies. Given the China mission especially, however, he began to see them for what they were: actors with special effects and timing. There was war, yes, but not actual danger. Nobody died from shooting this film.
He didn't know if that was why Chel was fidgeting, as the ghosts had been overly fond of arrows, or if it was for another reason—Suns were more conditioned to this than Life was after all. But Jack finished his beer, set it aside, and took up most of the couch as he leaned against her arm and dangled his legs over the side, his good arm bearing the weight. Her hand was tugged along as he settled in. "You ever watch these things and critique their tactics?" he asked curiously. "Like the bomber. There should have been more men there if they knew it was a weak point, or at least tried to fortify it better."

The Battle
Chel's eyes only left the screen when Jack began making a big enough movement to distract her. She was enamored with the battle scene. Unlike Jack she didn't see the fakeness- or perhaps she did and she chose to ignore it- she only saw her life and the things she enjoyed from day to day.
She let him get comfortable and then fit along the curve of his body. "No-" she responded abruptly, intelligently even, as though she'd thought about it before when in reality she hadn't seen the movie for a few years. "Didn't you see- the bomb was carried in by a suicide bomber. More soldiers would've meant more lost."
It led to a slight red across her cheeks, somewhat from embarrassment and somewhat from excitement. "Ah, I guess that's a yes. Not really battle stuff though, more like ..." There was a shot of the cowering women and children in their hiding spot. "Like that. Why don't they ever let women fight in this s**t? They'd have twice the army size and this s**t would end so much faster." A shot of archers firing over the wall to hit orcs. "And why they always tell the archers when to hold and when to fire? Just leaves timed gaps for the orcs to bust in. I'd stagger it, like a checkboard." The comparison to a checkboard wasn't really accurate in what she meant, but the point was there nonetheless.
Unlike Jack her bloodlust wasn't based in the momentary violence, but instead in the art. She was very particular in that she didn't enjoy the killing or the rush of emotions, she liked the flow and adrenaline that came with it. Perhaps similar, but not the same. "M'sure you get bothered by science s**t too yeah?"

"I love my weapon," Chel contested. That wasn't the problem at all. It was the personality that came alongside it. The one that told her how quickly she was going to fail, and exactly how she was going to fail.
And how accurate those predictions ended up being.
"Maybe you can meet him and judge for yerself," she said quietly as the ents ******** s**t up at Isengard. "Cheer up Owain, they get hardcore revenge."

"Most of the time you make it seem otherwise. But yeah," he replied, "I'd like that sometime." She already had a clue of what happened in his head; it was only fair he got the same chance.
All the while Owain cheered as enthusiastically as if they had been literally at Isengard, thoroughly immersed in the movie.

"There are some egregious but common mistakes, yeah." He didn't elaborate, though; instead he gave Chel a long and curious look before he rested his head against her arm and faced the television once more.
"That's the way it goes, though. Middle Ages society and s**t." It didn't have to be repeated, he knew it was obvious. "There was that blondie earlier, what was her name? Éowyn or something? She was making a fuss about it too."

"Yeah totally. We got balrogs and talkin' trees, but women on the field woah now." Chel shrugged it off as she didn't particularly care one way or another. She didn't like to take things too seriously beyond her opportunity to make a joke.
Then Gandalf appeared and Chel was quiet, letting him do his little victory prance down the mountainside as the white wizard saved the day. "Gotta admit that's pretty rad."Quote: Gandalf appears, accompanied by Éomer and his men. The combined forces cause the Uruk-hai to flee into Fangorn, where the Ents and their Huorn allies attack them. At Isengard, the Ents destroy the Uruk-hai and release the river dam, drowning the surviving Orc defenders and stranding Saruman in his tower.

"I love my bow and sword. Tenebrae ... Well he's not a bad guy." Chel could only put it at that.
Tenebrae, for example, was completely silent at the moment. He didn't have a single comment on the conversation.
