Drabble: Why Frances doesn't like pirates, ninjas, and vampires
Prompt: Why Frances doesn't like pirates, ninjas, and vampires
Characters: Beau Broke and Frances J. Worthington III
Wordcount: 100
Warnings: none
Beau had rambled on about the movie for what seemed like an hour. He had recapped the scenes, and even quoted the quotes.
It was just so... common. It was an amusement of the drooling, sweating, uncultured masses.
Frances was better than that.
“So, yeah… how about you? What did you think of it?”
“It was… interesting.”
Beau laughed. “You hated it, didn’t you?”
“Yes.”
“But it had pirates. Everyone loves pirates.”
Frances lifted his brows. “Well, maybe that’s the problem.”
Beau leaned back, carelessly crossing his arms. “Don’t take this the wrong way, Frances… but you’re such a snob.”

Frances is one of those contrary sorts that dislikes anything that's too popular with the masses. He's too educated in the finer things in life to be able to really enjoy a "Hollywood" movie. Or well... he just doesn't usually give those things a chance.

Now if I like something, and it becomes popular that's fine. But bandwagon jumping? I'm more apt to jump OFF a bandwangon than onto on. (my wife is contrary, too--contrary, what a good word).
But my contrariness is not born of being refined. I'm as trashy as they come. I just don't like crowds.
