and i dance dance dance, and i dance dance dance

[ravenly]

Who: Rue & you!
Where: Various buildings in Vatheon
When: Daytime. Sort of a delayed response to Siegfried's announcement about ballet classes.
Style: Whichever
Status: OPEN!!!

(Too small. Too old--too dirty. When is the last time someone picked up in here?)

[...Ugh. Rue shakes her head, walking out of yet another building. She's gotten used to this stupid thought bubble following her around for the week, though it is no less inconvenient...

She is looking for a place to quietly practice ballet now, since she's evidently going to be teaching lessons. She has no idea how to feel about it honestly; but her prince had garned quite a bit of interest, so she figures it'd be best to be prepared.

Around her neck rests a small music player, attached to headphones; she is familiarizing herself with the music she plans to dance to. It would be a hassle to deal with the cords while doing so, however. But luckily, the building she's finally settled on has a set of larger speakers she can hook everything up to.

...It takes her a moment to figure it out, but it seems to work just fine.

Taking a last peek to see that she's not being watched, she begins with an easy routine that she's done many times before.]


(( OOC: feel free to run into her as she's searching for the building, or walk in on her dancing later! ))

I see.

[Tieria looked back towards the door for a moment.]

It could just be that I have better hearing than most.

[ravenly]

That could be. [A shrug. She has no idea how good his hearing is, but it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that, maybe.

Either way, she moves to take a seat. Her feet could use a rest.]

But--do you like dancing?

[Music and dance so often go together, after all.]

[by_my_will]

I have danced, but I have not made a practice of it. [He wasn't sure if that counted as liking it or not, and his experience had been a complicated situation.]

[ravenly]

[...Sadly, she's not sure if it counts, either! She can't really read his mind.

But in any case, she will just stare at him, in case he has more to say. Her thought bubble simply has an ellipses in it; "..." as if it's loading or waiting.

And then she speaks.]

Would you like to?

[by_my_will]

[That sparked a bunch of new question marks.]

What? [Though, it wasn't because he hadn't heard her. He was just surprised that someone was offering.] I have never tried that kind of dance. [Awkward...]

[ravenly]

[...a little bit. But she doesn't regret asking.]

Well, my prince and I were planning to hold lessons. You could always join us, if you'd like to start.

[Tieria wasn't sure. He looked at his hands for a moment, not sure if he would even be any good, let alone finding a reason to actually do something like that.]

I do not know.

[ravenly]

...That's all right. Deciding now isn't necessary.

[Not everyone has what it takes, anyways, admittedly.]

[by_my_will]

[He nodded.]

Very well. Thank you for the offer.

[He stepped back a little then.] I will let you return to your practice.

[ravenly]

[Hmm. At that, Rue nods, admiring his politeness; and though she doesn't mind his company, she'll let him do as he pleases.]

I will be here for a while, if you decide you want to return.

[...For whatever reason.]

[by_my_will]

[He nodded.]

I will keep that in mind. Thank you.

[He gave her a polite nod.] I will see you soon.
