TNT is a movie channel on cable, in case you didn't know. It's not the best because they show commercials, but whatever.

A few days ago, they were playing "The Force Awakens" and I decided "might as well watch it"

I realized how long it had been since I've seen it.

Four years ago:

Now:

Oh they grow up so fast.

Anyways, I watch the movie and I know Ragnarok is playing next so I'm like "okay, I'll make an afternoon of it."

As usual, brothers mess things up.

He basically told me to get off the TV cause it was 'his turn' with it. My mom sided with him, but whatever. My bro gets in trouble more often, so it's a trade off.

Begrudgingly, my mom let me watch the movie in my parent's room, where she was.

Ever since Christmas, it's not really been a secret of my m̶a̶s̶s̶i̶v̶e̶ crush on Loki. It's also a thing that we tease each other in my family (in a friendly way, of course). Those two things often mesh together in a way that leaves me embarrased at the dinner table.

At least it was easier when they thought I had a crush on Thor, because then I could honestly deny it.

Anyways, my mom is sort of paying attention to the movie while she and I are playing 'Words with Friends' (I still have yet to win ANY games against ANYONE). And like any parent in her situation would, the same question starts repeating itself.

"Where's Loki?"

The play at the beginning of the movie has her a bit confused cause she hasn't seen "Dark World"

"Is that him?"

"No, that's Matt Damon."

"What are they talking about?"

"Previous movie."

"He's blue now?"

"I'm gonna have you watch Thor 1"

"No."

Eventually when he does show, she stops paying attention cause WWF, but focuses back in when Thor and Loki are in front of the demolished senior center.

We're also talking about why exactly I find Loki attractive.

"He's sarcastic, funny, and very smart." I say simply.

"Is it the dark hair?"

"I mean, yeah?" I say, uncertainly, because yeah, that's part of it, but not the main reason.

She actually laughs when he rolls his eyes at the two girls.

"I mean, the type of guys I like are dark haired, blue eyed, sarcastic, and smart." My mom says. "Like your dad before he started to go grey."

"I mean, he has green eyes, but yeah, that's pretty accurate."

(And don't try to tell me his eyes are blue. His eyes are blue when he's mind controlled and when he's just Tom.)

She's also texting my dad the whole time. In response to this, my dad sends my mom a picture of one of those men's dye kits (again, my dad's hair is greying), asking if he should get one.

Honestly, I thought my mom's type was Leonardo DiCaprio based on a comment she made at dinner.

Apparently when my brother's hair is slicked to the side, he looks like DiCaprio, which I pointed out.

My bro is a bit like "uh, no."

"No, that's a good thing cause Leonardo DiCaprio is really hot!" My mom said.

I swear, I spit out my drink and started dying laughing cause I NEVER expected my mom to say something like that.

My dad just jokingly looks hurt. I almost peed myself

Long story short, when you combine my parents, they get a son who looks like Leonardo DiCaprio, and a daughter who (or so I've been told) looks like Emilia Clarke. And I'm not complaining; I fully own up to looking like Khaleesi.

Anyways, that went WAY off topic.

My mom asks what Thor is like.

"He's more like a big golden retriever."

"So, not as smart as Loki?"

"Thor's... More Street Smarts, but he is still intelligent in his own way (me remembering Thor's Mjolnir defibrillator)."

"Ah."

For the most part, my mom found Loki's lines to be the most entertaining, and that made me happy.

My dad comes home shortly after.

"So has Loki come on yet, or should I wait for the scream to tell me?" He asks. Obviously, he meant my fangirl scream, but I denied that.

Dinner was shortly after, not much to be said, the usual episode of "Jeopardy!" with our food.

Because it was still going behind the recording, Ragnarok comes back on after we close out of the DVR.

"OOOH, we're close to my favorite part." I said.

Get Help.

Here were my family's reactions from most amused to least.

Dad-*absolutely dies laughing*

Mom- *amused snort she does*

Brother- That's not funny, someone could have gotten hurt! (Obviously a joke)

All in all, an entertaining afternoon.
