History Of Witchcraft [Week Six : Thursday, Period 4, Danger Shop]

[sensethevisions]

The students had received a handwaved message from Phoebe to meet in the danger shop today.

Once inside, they found that there were stadium seats like in a lecture hall.

Once everyone was seated, Phoebe stood up and smiled at them.

"Okay, today, for something different, we're going to watch a movie about the Salem Witch Trials. "The Tribulation" is based on a play of the same name by renowned American playwright, Arthur Miller. One of the earliest films of his play was done in 1957 in France. The version we'll be seeing is the 1996 version."

"We'll have a discussion during or afterwards."

Watch The Movie/Take Notes

[sensethevisions]

Because Daniel Day Lewis used to be cute.

Prue didn't like Winona Ryder for some reason. It was almost as if they were enemies in another movie lifetime. Weird.

Adam watched the movie, thinking back to the one incident where he'd be accused of being a witch.

He was really glad it hadn't gone to a trial, as he watched the movie.

A movie about witch hunting kind of bothered Anders a little, after that dream he'd had a few days ago; okay, it bothered him a lot. He had a quizzical, bothered expression on his face as he watched.

Discussion

[sensethevisions]

Discuss the factual inaccuracies and the ridiculousness of parts of the movie.

Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Because she is here

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Still a little freaked after the movie, Anders just went over, hugged Phoebe, and . . . didn't exactly let go.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe hugged him tightly. The story always got to her.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

After what seemed like a couple of minutes, it finally occurred to Anders that maybe Phoebe might like to, you know, breathe. Loosening his hold, he looked at her sheepishly. "So, uh, hi."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

She gave him a small smile. "Hi. It gets to me, too."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Reminds me of that stupid dream I had the other night," Anders mumbled. "It's kinda dumb, I know."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe shook her head. "It's not dumb at all, sweetie."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

He gave her a tiny smile. "If you don't mind I'm just gonna stand here and hug you some more for a while."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

"I don't mind at all," she said softly.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Good," Anders said, and didn't exactly hesitate to do just that.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe smiled and hugged him. "The sad fact is that stuff like that does did happen."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"Apparently I grow up to do it in my frakked-up dream world," he said half to himself. "If that's how it's gonna be . . . don't want to grow up."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe heard him and pulled his face down to hers.

"That is not who you are, Anders. You could never do that to someone. Hell, you couldn't have done it even before... but you definitely couldn't make yourself do that to someone now that you've been in love with us."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

He shook his head slowly. "No, I can't see myself doing that. I'd never want to be that guy. Maybe that's why the dreams scare me so much."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

"Don't let them have that power over you. You could never do something like that."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

"You really believe in me, don't you?" Anders asked.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe nodded. "I really do."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

He hugged her tighter and exhaled slowly. "Then I won't be that guy."

If she believed in him, he'd do whatever he had to do not to be that guy.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

She really did believe that strongly in him.

"You won't," she assured him as she held him.

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

Eyes closed and face buried in her hair, Anders smiled and murmured, "Thanks, baby."

Re: Talk to Phoebe

[sensethevisions]

"You're welcome, sweetie."

OOC

[sensethevisions]

An easy and laid-back class because work is guaranteed to be a little bit stressful today.

Re: OOC
