[Day 329] In Bloom Event/Dance Mingle
[DAYTIME: Walking in a floral wonderland. Not to be confused with an actual wonderland. ~~Completely different event.~~ You could be anywhere and everywhere today and not escape the petals.

DANCE: The sector 2 garden is a little extra pleasant and inviting this evening. Gentle breeze, beautiful flowers, delicious hor d'oeuvres, sparkling punch, and music. And dry. Did we mention it's dry? Not a single flood as far as the eye can see. So, find someone and get out there and dance.]

(OOC: Event INFO. Feel free to have your mingle set up cover both aspects of the day.)

[He had to mentally reverse what Sumeragi had taught him, but that wouldn't be hard. She had taught him the woman's traditional role as he had been in disguise as a woman, but he could easily step into the traditional male role so that Aigis may learn the female part.

He nodded a little, feeling a little awkward, as this wasn't really a strong suit of his, and moved to stand in front of her instead of at her side.]

Very well.

Take my hand with your right. [He held his left hand out for her, his own palm up.] Then place your left hand on my right shoulder. [He reached around her back with his right hand, placing it in the center, just below her shoulder blades.]

	[She nods, focusing intensely, clearly determined to pay close attention and learn this. She takes his hand with her own hard, metal one, then places the other one on his shoulder.] Understood. This is correct? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Her hand was surprisingly heavy on his shoulder, which was still recovering from injuring it during the flood, but he nodded.]

That is correct.

[He could handle it.]

I will use my hand on your back to guide you. If you mirror my steps, it should be fine. When I move my left, you move your right. When I move my right, you move your left.

[He waited to see if she was okay with that.]

	[She nods, ready to test it out. Memorizing the steps will not be a problem for her, but she's likely to be a stiff, precise dancer, rather than a graceful one.] I understand. I will remember these instructions and am ready to begin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He nodded. He was likely a bit stiff and precise for now, too. It took a while to get a handle on the graceful part of it.]

Start with your right and move back. I will be starting with my left and moving forward.

[He was cautious, giving her a chance to catch on and follow, and carefully gave her small nudges and gentle pushes to help her anticipate his next movement. As they moved, a pattern emerged. Three steps, three steps that mirrored the first three, adding a slight turn. He guided them along the edge of the dance floor.]

	[She has one or more initial misteps as they begin but soon she gets the hang of it, stepping backwards as he moves forwards and pivoting when she does. Its only when she realizes how far around the dance floor they've moved does she realize that its working.] We're doing it! We're dancing! I am dancing! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Her excitement was hard to resist, and it actually got Tieria to smile a little. He had been fairly confident she would have picked up on a pattern easily enough given her nature, so he was glad that they had been able to work through it together.] Yes. We are dancing. [It fascinated him just how much emotional range she had. Pleasantly so.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I love to experience new things like this. [Oddly enough her thoughts are along a similar line. The emotions are a new thing, something she is developing on her own. New memories are also important, memories like this one. She stumbles just a bit, so distracted by how excited she is but then she corrects herself.] I am sure I will never forget it.

	Do you get many opportunities to do so? [He was careful, his grip tightening just a little to help her stay balanced when she stumbled.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	orgia_mode 2015-07-09 11:48 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, I think so. [She has the steps down but is as stiff and precise as ever. She's likely not ever going to be a graceful dancer.] I only awakend to my emotions a few months ago, and it makes everything feel new. I think if I want to be alive I have a responsibility to truly experience it to the fullest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So this was not something you had before. How long have you been active? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was created ten years ago but sustained critical damage and was inoperable until last year, when I woke up again. I began to develop emotions after I was damaged in battle a few months ago and did not know how to react to many decisions my friends and I were forced to make after my repairs.
