Elliot froze. Wait, that was actually what was going on?
"Wow," he managed, looking to the side. Tina was visibly uncomfortable and Elliot was mentally berating himself for being such an idiot. "I was joking," He supplied, as if that would make things better though the moment the words came out of his mouth he wondered if they would help or hinder.
Wincing at his foolishness, he let out a long sigh before deciding to go up front. "I didn't mean to make you awkward--I'm new here, too.. To be honest I'm still adjusting. I had just got my ass kicked by sirens a few days before waking up here, and now I'm magically in Kansas" And before that I found a magical pair of shoes that forced me to go to an academy where I now use the power of dance as a weapon. He kept that bit to himself and instead tried to cheer the other up.
He offered his hand, raising an eyebrow. "I'm not exactly Mr. Cool and Social, but would another dance make you smile a little bit? I didn't mean to drag you down."
