Gwen was still getting over the shock of discovering the Spider-man comic books. Finding out that not only did she and Peter stay together and were almost engaged, but that she was going to die was more than Gwen expected. She was suddenly not upset anymore about being taken to the Land of Make Believe. She began to consider maybe whoever took her did her a favor. While there was the possibility that none of the books or films aren't going to happen in Gwen's future, she didn't want to take that risk. While at the store she purchased a copy of the film and a copy of The Death of Gwen Stacy comic. She planned on watching the film later to see just how similar it was to her life before the Land of Make Believe.

Gwen did return to work the next day and forced herself to return to her routine. She went to work and ate lunch in the breakroom rather than the city. After work she stopped at the store to pick up a few half pints of Ben & Jerry's. She bought banana split for herself, AmeriCone Dream for Darcy and a brownie batter to split if they want more. She stopped at the movie rental to pick up a few swashbuckler films before heading back to the castle.

When she returned to the castle she smiled and said, "hey," to Darcy. Gwen went to set her purse and trench in her room.

"They had your AmeriCone Dream," she said when she returned to the sitting area. She held up the plastic bag with ice cream. "And I grabbed some swashbuckler adventure films. Princess Bride,
Stardust, The Mask of Zorro, and The Three Musketeers. Don't worry, no Pirates of the Caribbean." She set the movies down on the sofa before setting the ice cream on the table, ready to be eaten. Gwen offered the best smile she could to Darcy, trying to push all of the emotions away from her mind.

Darcy came out in a matching pajama top and bottom, a light blue base with silver and gold. There was a Jackson Pollock style randomness to the pattern. There wasn't any method to Darcy's madness in picking the particular set, all the same, aside from the fact it looked cool. She could be rather fashionable when she wanted.

"I actually see a lot of lawyers." Darcy admitted with a laugh. "And other suits-and-ties sorts of people. It really is fun though. Part of me thinks 'oh, I should get a better paying job' but then... hey, do I really want to go back to school? And room and utilities are kind of paid for, on the plus." She gestured around them in general, falling down into her chair in a dramatic motion before grabbing a strawberry daiquiri wine cooler and twisting it open. "What about you? Having fun with - whatever science-like thing you do with dragons?"

"Really?" Gwen supposed she shouldn't have been surprised that so many lawyers would go to the Damage Den. Their jobs were stressful enough as it was. But she had to agree with Darcy on the school front. It was in fact what Darcy had said upon her arrival about school that convinced Gwen to not enroll.

"I hear you there," Gwen said. "Like you said once, it's not as if the credits transfer over if we return. We'd have to start all over again. May as well take this as a sort of vacation."

She sat down again on the sofa next to Darcy, and picked up the remote. "It's pretty nice actually. I don't know when I'd get to work with actual dragons back home. There is a lot I don't know, granted. But, I'm getting there." Gwen pressed enter on the remote to confirm that yes, they did want the movie to play. She set the remote aside as the menu went away on the TV and the movie began to play.
