*Yurika appears on the deck of the ship with streamers and balloons. She's wearing a big, green, fuzzy frog suit and a party hat. There is cake.

What is going on?*

Everyone~! I know we've all been depressed because of our recent losses, but today, the White Chalice's forces have managed to win! You know what I think? We don't celebrate winning

"d-d-d-double d-d-date?!" Kensuke wasn't even sure Dita liked him at all, or was simply indulging his school boy crush. She was so odd and aloof, it wasn't as if she sought him out, just worked him to bone was all. He wouldn't give up, but he wasn't about to shout it out for everyone to hear.
"I'm ok!! She's not even here anyways, and... and...-uhhh" He scurries back against the wall. "I'm just here to film everyone!! Yeah! Document all this for the history books, and posterity!" He nods vigorously nearly knocking his glasses from his face yet again.
"I'm all right over here, by myself. heh-heh. I like it think way, don't worry!!"

[2hell_weride]

Nope.

"Well if she ain't here, then go git her mang! C'mon! Ya can't just bolt yourself to the wall forever! Make a move bro!"

And this is the part where he's going to drag him away from the wall again...

[aceshighmach]

And this is the part where Shirley's going to drag MARKUS away. "C'mon you. Leave the poor guy alone."

[my_time2_shine]

Kensuke was thankful for Shirley. That last thing he needed right now was to be hounded by Markus. Kensuke knew he meant well, but social interaction was really his strong suit. He was a sidekick, not a main character. His place was here, on the wall, with this camera, alone.
"Have fun you two!" He called after them, trying to be funny, but probably failing at it.

MarKus: 2, Shirley: 34

"Buuuut... he can't just stay there... He's gotta go get the girl. Hell, I did!"

But, it wouldn't do anything to fight her that hard on the subject. MarKus would just terrorize Kensuke later on. He'd find out who this mystery chick was!

"Well... at least we've got... yanno... us time before we have to deal with Tsukasa..."

"True, so you're going to take me dancing instead of pestering him," said Shirley in her most authoritative voice. "You lead or should I?"

[2hell_weride]

Shirley could use her cutesy tone and get him to follow her to hell and back. Authority just makes him worry... Like so...

"Dance... Eehhhh... I... don't know how..." he says in his tiny, 'you can't hear me' voice.

[aceshighmach]

"Pleaaaaaaase?" Okay there's the cutesy tone in the making.

[2hell_weride]

"I... don't know how to dance..." That was a bit louder!

[aceshighmach]

"I'll teach you then," said Shirley with a grin.

[2hell_weride]

"You... don't have to..." Yes, you do. He's gotta have other ways of sweeping her off her feet besides saving her sweet ass from raining Festum!

[aceshighmach]

"It's not so hard. Here. You put your hand here, and your other goes in mine. And then it's just one, two, three, one, two three."

[2hell_weride]

MarKus is down for putting his hand on her hip. This isn't unusual, but fairly new in occurrence. Holding hands, that's a bit more intimate, and still awesome.

Step step step. Step step step... Well, he's not fuckin up yet!

[aceshighmach]

"It's fairly easy. Dances are always in a beat. One, two, three helps it out a lot." admitted Shirley. "Formal dancing even easier."

[2hell_weride]

Well, okay, it is easy. And he likes being this close to her, but, something about it is still embarrassing. And it's not even that she's leading him. It's just a level of mushy he hasn't adjusted to yet.

MarKus is always at a 15 of 10 on the Hot Blood scale, this is about a 2...

"Too bad there's nothing... yanno... formal to go to."

[aceshighmach]

"True, but formal parties are always such a drag," remarked Shirley, grinning at him. "Don't worry, this is good enough for now."
