Once Mari pulled herself away from Giorgio, she made her way over to Rory. "Of course! Do you want help up the stairs or did you want me to get the popcorn? Or do you want me to get the popcorn and help you up the stairs? Because I can do that. Not sure how well, but I can try! Worst that could happen is that we fall in a heap on the floor?" She laughed. Mari had learned that the best thing to do when dealing with people who were different was to not treat them any differently at all!
"Why don't we just get you upstairs, and I'll go get the popcorn? Did you want anything in specific to drink?" Oddly enough, Mari felt comfortable working in other people's kitchens. Where some people might feel embarrassed to go into someone's kitchen uninvited, if the situation called for it, Mari could maneuver around anyone's kitchen as if it was her own. And she wasn't about to let Rory do any heavy lifting when she was perfectly capable herself.
