Ophelia and Alexei
Ophelia nodded slightly. She should go in too but she could not bring herself to it. It just wasn't a place she wanted to be at all. And then he was offering to escort her in and dance with her and she looked at him with a combination of confusion and interest. It could be fun dancing with him. She thought she might enjoy it honestly.
"Yes. We can." Because even if she had to be careful, it would be nice to dance with someone she chose for once. Dancing with him- someone she got along with well- would be amusing and she imagined she would enjoy herself more not being in the dance alone, at least until Sera called him back.
