[a little pleased he asked, so she will put her sandals down and step into them.]

If I must.

[midway]

You make it sound like such a chore.

[ But it's obvious he doesn't mind, and he just holds out a hand for her to take once she's got her sandals back on. ]

[sacredpath]

I'm only teasing.

[she will take his hand! she is not actually all that good a dancer, considering how few occasions she has had for it, but she has coordination at least.

[midway]

I know. You're very funny.

[ Just like him!

That's fine, Claude is pretty practiced as a richboy, but he doesn't like being too stiff and formal. Surprise twirl... ]

I thought we'd have more wallflowers. But it seemed like everyone was desperate for a good time.

[sacredpath]

I am. If only you could keep up.

[twirl! she's very delighted.]

Perhaps with yesterday's news, spirits are higher than they might have otherwise been.

[ He's also having a lot of fun... Obviously enjoys dancing quite a bit, even if he's improving some of the steps. ]

I know, I didn't expect to hear from them like that. [ Relief, worry. ] Hopefully we'll be able to receive more news soon.

[sacredpath]

It's starting to feel real, that we might get them back.

[midway]

It is. I'm not usually one for optimism, but I think we might pull through this.

I really hope we get to see them all soon.

[ pang of loneliness ]

[sacredpath]

[aww.]

Anyone in particular you're looking forward to seeing again?

[midway]

[ He thinks about it. ]

I wouldn't want to play favourites too obviously, but I am looking forward to seeing Elysia, Charlie, and Su. What about you?

[sacredpath]

The same, really. Though it's less sleazy for me to pick three different women.

[midway]

[ Glancing off to the side, thoughtful. ]

Are they all women? I didn't even notice.

[sacredpath]

I think you noticed...

[midway]

[ Smiling slightly, ]

Alright, I'll accept being sleazy in this case.

[sacredpath]

I suspect it is slightly more due to the fact that Charlie and Elysia are writing devastatingly wonderful letters to every single person.

[she will give him that.]

[midway]

Every single person?

[ Lifting his brows. ]

I was foolish to think I was special...

[sacredpath]

Ah. Sorry to burst your bubble. I'm sure the letters they wrote to you were special.
