Report 3 [Video] Dancing Lessons

[holdnovirtue]

Alright Adstringendum, I've taken notice that a lot of you are preparing for Prom, and that most of you are excited for this. [Why it is that you are still baffles him.]

I would like to offer my services. I am willing to teach several of you how to not only dance, but impress everyone else on the dance floor, and above all else, your dancing partner

[Oooh, pretty!]

It is a most lovely dress. I wish you luck bartering it.

These dance lessons, what sort of dancing do you teach? I am well-versed in dance, but I fear what I know is out-of-date, compared to what most people think of as dance.

[Hawke's observation that what she thinks of as dancing doesn't seem like it to him still bothers her slightly.]

[holdnovirtue]

I think I might have someone interested in it, actually.

Dance never goes 'out-of-date', it just rides the trends. However I am familiar with several styles, such as modern, a little swing, some jazz, but mostly I specialize in formal.

[capuletnomore]

I am glad. It is too lovely to not be worn.

[And those terms go right over her head.]

I have not heard of such dancing before. I fear I may prove the exception to your statement, good sir. I hail from the fifteenth century.

[holdnovirtue]

[He isn't going to comment on the dress. That's the outfit he arrived here in.]

The fifteenth century? Well. I suppose I'll have my work cut out for me. Would you like the lessons?

I would love to see how you do dance either way though.

[capuletnomore]

[She nods.]

I would indeed, good sir, if you do not mind to teach me. In return, I am able to sew and mend, and, perhaps - perhaps should you need winter clothing - something of my cousin's would suit.

[She's loathe to give up anything Tybalt was fond of, but there are a few things she could part with, if that was deemed a fair price for lessons.]

I would be most happy to show you. Would that my cousin were here still - he was one of the best dancers in all of Verona.

That icon. Adorable.

[holdnovirtue]

I'm sure we'll be able to find something for the trade. As it's just lessons in dance, I won't ask for a lot. [Sensing her slight reluctance to part with the clothing.]

You don't say? Well, perhaps you can teach me, and then that way I'll be able to see the dance.

One dance lesson for another? [Oh Tieria, forgetting the original intent behind his lessons already.]

Nene is always adorable! ♥

[capuletnomore]

I think that is a fair trade, good sir.

[She curtsies.]

I am Juliet Montague. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

[holdnovirtue]

A pleasure, I'm Tieria Erde. [And you'll get a bow at from him, your formal must be wearing off on him.]

When do you like to start learning?

[capuletnomore]

[She smiles, seeing the bow. Another gesture to remind her of home.]

Lord Erde.

Whenever it would suit you to teach. My schedule, such as it is, can accommodate new activities with ease. Provided you do not wish lessons at the first crow of the rooster.

[holdnovirtue]

[He loves the way you talk Juliet.]

Ah, but Milady Montague, wouldn't you wish to dance whilst the sun rises?

But suppose if you wished we could schedule the lessons for some time in the afternoon.

[capuletnomore]

[Her smile widens at that. Most poetic.]

I would not mind it, but I believe my chickens would protest the disruption to their usual routine.

Afternoon would suit nicely, Lord Erde. Whichever day is most convenient for you.

[holdnovirtue]

[He'll give a chuckle at that.]

Afternoons it is then. Would you be free tomorrow at such a time, Milady?

[capuletnomore]

[She nods.]

I would indeed be free tomorrow, Lord Erde.

[holdnovirtue]

Then I shall see your radiant smile tomorrow, Milady Montague.

[He gives her another bow. Normally he wasn't this proper, but something about the other just brought it out in him. Or maybe he just never had anyone to be proper with... Either way, it was fun.]

[capuletnomore]

[She curtsies in reply. Not since King Henry had been here had she been so formal with a gentleman. But even now, it was a different sort of formal - one that reminded her more of home, and her myriad cousins. She grins.]

I look forward to our meeting, Lord Erde.

[holdnovirtue]

[He gives a final curt nod and cuts the feed, smiling to himself. Maybe meeting new people wasn't going to be terrible.]

(ooc: I don't know if you wanna continue on to the lessons or hand wave, or... you know, whatever c: )
