[After a brief case of mistaken apartment number and the ensuing accidental terrorizing of some random people, Santo finally managed to find the right place. At least, he hoped it was the right place.

He gave the door a solid, manly knock. Though it would probably be more accurate to call it a loud thud.]

[ Rikki opens the door and grins at Santo. ] Hey. Come on in.

[ She opens the door to him. The living room has a slightly worn couch in the center, around a low coffee table and a TV, which already has DDR set up on the screen. It's pretty typical teenager-type living area, though it's cleaner than most would be. ]

Don't mind if I do.

[Santo steps on in and gives the place a quick once over. Yes, he is already being judgmental. Once he sees nothing to object to other than neatness he takes his huge jacket off and just sort of...tosses it aside wherever.]

So! You ready to lose?

Nope. [ Rikki smirks, and then adds in simultaneously the sweetest and most mocking voice she can manage ] But I'm ready to make you eat your words.

[ She puts her hands on her hips. It is on. ]

Ha! Yeah right. Many have tried and all have fallen before my DDR might! [Or so he says. in reality it's been a while and he's more than likely rusty.]

[But being egotistical for no reason is manly damnit so he folds his arms and grins.] I'll even be nice and let ya pick the first song.

I haven't played DDR in forever IGNORE ANY MISTAKES I MIGHT MAKE >> kickinsidekick January 26 2010, 20:56:24 UTC
Bring it. I'm the frigging Baryshnikov of DDR. [ Yes she's a ballet nerd, what of it? ]

Okay. Say goodbye to your ego. [ She's been wearing a light jacket, which she takes off and tosses on the couch. She gets on her dance pad and flips through the songs, picking Love Shine because the idea of Santo dancing to it is hilarious, and goes with heavy. ] Ready when you are.

ME TOO so I probably won't catch them rock_it_punch January 26 2010, 21:35:10 UTC
The what. [The reference is far too classy for Santo to catch and therefore it just gets a blank stare. He shakes it off though and takes his own spot.] My ego and I will both be just fine, thanks. Let's do this.

OH GOOD kickinsidekick January 26 2010, 21:57:47 UTC
[ It's okay no one gets her ballet references :'( ] Your loss.

[ AND DDR TIME. Rikki's pretty good, hitting about four out of every five arrows. Though she practiced the day before, so she wouldn't be rusty, so maybe that's cheating. About halfway through the song she asks ] Keeping up?

[Santo is doing slightly less better after missing a great deal of steps early in the song. The rustiness is definitely showing, but he's starting to get up to speed.] ...Yeah! Of course! [Not that it'll keep him from pretending he was doing good all along.

[ Rikki fumbles it towards the end. This is what she gets for picking a song she hadn't practiced recently, especially when she gets overconfident after seeing Santo miss a lot of the steps. She loses the beat during the last third of the song and takes awhile to get back on it, but keeps acting confident. ]

[Santo manages to stay fairly well in his newly established groove, which unfortunately for the floor means large amounts of rock stomping. Man, if you thought his ego was massive before...]

[ Damnit Santo. For both the floor thing and the ego. The song ends, and Rikki has lost, but she only missed about two steps less than Santo. ] Well, you're not terrible. [ she admits grudgingly. ]

[He is grinning like an idiot. An even bigger idiot than usual.] Not terrible? Not terrible? I am the opposite of not terrible. I am the best.

[ Rikki smirks. ] I went easy on you, dude. Didn't want to crush your hopes too early.

Also? The opposite of not terrible is terrible. FYI.

Oh yeah? Well, let's keep going then! Pick your best song and I'll still beat ya on it.

[Seems like he's just going to ignore that last bit.]

In your dreams. [ She tries to keep up the cocky attitude despite the just having lost thing and picks Speed Over Beethoven. ] Ready when you are.
