Aw Mary-chan, what'd I tell you about saying you can't do things?

C'mon, I'm sure that you can at least dance better than your aniki...!

[immobileyes]

... Have you ever danced before, Aniki?

[sunshrouded]

[A shrug.]

Well... yeah. I've had to go to things like this a couple times before... Can't say I enjoy it much, though.

But Dad apparently knew I'd need it, so he made me learn how to dance as a kid. Least favorite lesson, hands down.

[immobileyes]

It must have been hard, then... I always thought dancing must come naturally if you were a prince or a princess.

[sunshrouded]

[Tenka just snorts faintly at that.]

I think even the royal family has a hard time learning some things, Mary-chan.

[immobileyes]

... Maybe it's just something that's hard for everyone.

[sunshrouded]

I'll give you that much--

But you practiced, right? You should go show off!

[immobileyes]

... I'm not very good at showing off.

[sunshrouded]

Do you want to practice with your aniki?

[immobileyes]

... I guess if you don't step on my feet...

[ She'll trust you. ]

[sunshrouded]

You really have no faith in me, huh?

[And admittedly Tenka doesn't want to dance but.... well, Mary's so shy and nervous, trying to get her into showing off what she practiced overrules his own feelings. So he grins as he bows before offering her a hand.]

Shall we then, Miss Mary-chan?

[tenka don't mix those two together]

[immobileyes]

Yes!

[ And she'll take his hand, and move forward with him--

TO BOOGIE. ]
