Dance #92 [Video/Open Action]

[quackingly]

[Ahiru is standing out in Misery Square, dressed up in her ballet costume for Sleeping Beauty. She's dancing out on the pavement in her toe shoes, sometimes up en pointe and sometimes not. Whenever anyone comes nearby, or she thinks she's caught their attention, she dances up to them and thrusts a flyer out towards them.]

Cute.

[quackingly]

Cute? Really? Ah...thank you!

[theotokos]

Really, really. And you're welcome.

[quackingly]

Um...so...would you like to come to the ballet? It'll be really neat! There's lots of action and romance...

[theotokos]

Ah-

[theotokos]

Well, I'm not too sure?

[quackingly]

Oh...I see! You think you're going to be busy?

[theotokos]

Well, that and... I used to be in that sort of thing when I was small. So it kind of brings back some sour memories.

[quackingly]

Oh...you didn't like it?

[theotokos]

Oh, no, it's not like that. I guess I just grew out of it. Some things are just kind of painful thinking back on.

[quackingly]

[completely missing the point] Oh, yeah. It's not really easy. I'm still not really sure if I'm used to being en pointe...

[theotokos]

[ Lady is oddly patient today! ] Mmm, it wasn't so much that. I was able to get that down pat, it's just-

I'm an orphan. My parents put me in that, so it reminds me of them.

[quackingly]

Oh! Oh...I-I'm sorry. I had no idea...then no wonder you don't like thinking about it.

[theotokos]

It's okay, it's not like you knew. But I'm sure you're pretty good at it, right?

[quackingly]

Ummmmm...

...

Well, I'm...better than I used to be?
