'I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse.'
Mesmerised. Glued to the screen. Hands digging idly in the empty popcorn bowl. James was staring without shame at the moving pictures on the telly, drawn in, quite literally, to the story of the century. Merlin's bollocks, he'd never known how good muggle films could be. Manky was sitting next to him, whimpering and hollering for attention, but James's thoughts were entirely transfixed on the screen as the action played out. The Godfather. What an amazing thing, he mused, what a wonderfully and purely sensual experience that he'd been missing out on this whole time. Bespectacled gaze was following every little movement, his ears perking at the words and hands twitching with anticipation of the Godfather's next move.
And then BAM. Don Corleone is being gunned down and James is sitting on the edge of his seat, almost landing on his knees. He would readily crawl toward the screen to get a better view, wishing he could actually be there and interact with all of the characters. Bloody muggle films! He cursed the rapt attention he was giving to the screen when he finally noticed that the popcorn bowl had long been empty. Yet he turned his eyes quickly back to the screen, feeling himself hold his breath in anticipation of what would happen next.
