What: Del and Maxxie go dancing

Del had figured on this location for two reasons - the first was that he knew the receptionist would let them in and the second was that the two of them were together fairly discrete when it came to being Wild Cards. He led Maxxie past the desk after she'd paid with all into the rather plain dance hall. There was the ubiquitous disco ball and the music coming from the rather impressive set up was a rather ordinary waltz. It wasn't the most happening of places - they were easily the youngest people there - but there was a nice crowd.

He grinned behind his shades and offered her a hand. "Shall we?" he asked. He felt comfortable here and it showed, almost glowed from him.

"I don't date." She put on the bright smile perfected through years of performance. It wasn't exactly a lie. She didn't date, and never really had. But she barely knew Del, and didn't like talking about herself at the best of times, so her lips pressed down against any description of her first few days on campus.

"And I'd rather dance than talk. I don't get to do this very often at all, and I love it almost as much as gymnastics except for the part where it's actually just fun."

"Oh...kay," Del said slowly, skeptically. He guessed that was what she meant by not answering his questions.

At least it made sense in the growing picture of the petite girl in front of him. He resumed his perfect posture and decided he could ride through this just fine - he just had to keep this in mind for next time.

"Forget it." He offered her a hand to go back out again.
