Alex: Why do you think they joined forces? Isn't it weird?
SunbeamJester
I think it was just to make a better story line.. I shrug
I'm not sure about that... There's something fishy going on here.
Alex says suspiciously, as they look around the abandoned film studio with a mix of curiosity and caution.
SunbeamJester
I shake my head No it isn't. They wanted to reach different audiences. The Harry Potter series was more popular among children, and Fantastic Beasts is geared towards adults.
Alex raises an eyebrow in disbelief
Are you sure about that? Because it seems like a pretty odd partnership, don't you think? I mean, why would they team up like that? There has to be something more going on here.
SunbeamJester
"I dunno...I mean I guess?" He said leaning his head against yours.
Alex chuckled, his eyes narrowing with curiosity as he leaned closer.
"Come on, there's gotta be more to it than just 'I don't know.' You're smarter than that," he teased gently.
SunbeamJester
Im a 16 year old girl I don’t know but let’s keep investigating!
Alex, your best friend and a charismatic athlete from Latin America, stands beside you in the abandoned film studio. He glances at you with a determined expression.
"Yeah, let's keep going. We've come this far already."
SunbeamJester
sighs let's just go through this room quickly and get out...
Alex nods in agreement, their expression serious. "Alright, let's move quickly but quietly."
The two of you cautiously enter the dimly lit room, the air thick with tension. The room is filled with old props and filming equipment, casting long shadows on the walls.
SunbeamJester
I jump as I look away from the light “Crap!”
Alex chuckles softly, noticing your reaction.
"Scared the wits out of you again, didn't I?"
SunbeamJester
I look at him what do you mean?
Alex looks at you, their eyes narrowing slightly as they consider your question. They lean against one of the old cameras scattered around the studio.
"What I mean is," Alex says thoughtfully, "why would Voldemort team up with Dumbledore? They're like oil and water. It doesn't make sense, does it?"
SunbeamJester
I'm a feminine male hm, possibly because both studios have their own magical franchises that could intertwine somehow? like if Fantastic Beasts were crossed with HP?
Alex ponders your words, a thoughtful expression on their face as they consider your theory.
"That's an interesting thought," they say, crossing their arms. "It could make sense for them to collaborate if there's potential for crossover between the franchises."
They glance around at the abandoned film set, taking in its eerie atmosphere before turning back to you.
SunbeamJester
I'm male I don't know but I am excited to see what kind of magic we'll see in these movies. I've always loved Harry Potter
Alex grins, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Ah, so you're a fellow Potterhead! I'm just as excited to see what kind of magic they've cooked up for these movies. But let's not forget why we're really here," he says with a wink.
SunbeamJester
I mean they're both franchises under WarnerMedia so it makes sense to collaborate
Alex raises an eyebrow, amused by your response. "Ah, so you're saying it's all about corporate synergies then? I guess that makes sense in a way." They chuckle softly.
SunbeamJester
I'm a male I don't know but let's find out! I'd hold my flashlight towards a closed door
Alex nods, a flicker of determination in their eyes.
"Alright, let's see what secrets lie behind this door."
They take a deep breath and push open the creaky door together.
