Substitute Daily Entertainment: Thursday Edition!

It's a demon, a dancing demon!

Your character is enrolled in a charity dance competition. What's their style? Solo or partners? Are they in it to win it, or are they trying to find a creative way to escape the dance floor with minimal embarrassment?

Jess is in it to win and likely has a partner. I am seeing an old fashioned sock-hop with lots of jitter bug and similar dance styles. She is likely very good given her agility.

Hank is torn between wanting to leave the dance floor and spend more time with Raven, who got him to sign up for the dance. He likely is uncomfortable with anything that isn't the waltz or foxtrot.

Someone, sometime, is going to have to get Gredya to dance.

(Ignore the journal, I was doing a thing and no LJ login on this computer.)

Is there where I ought to mention, that Eric is quite a good dancer? (Court dances - and it is purely head canon)
And that he'd hate dancing with a were as much as a were would likely hate dancing with him.

Yesh ...
Also, how else are you going to get ahead at court? Or in society in general?

Gee, now all he and Gredya need are the right charity to bring them together for the dance competition! Maybe they're both passionate sponsors of a local Little League team? Advocates for saving the whales!

Or somebody could just tell them that they can't.
Shouldn't.
Aren't allowed to.

Eric would even be willing to let the whole charity thing slide in that case ;)

Gredya's kids could be in the Little League team!

Woot, dance icon time!

Anywho, as cliched as it is, I am sure Amascut learned some form of bellydance for some reason or another. It comes in useful from time to time. I'd be worried about the charity she dances for, though.

As for Fairy Fixit? I am thinking she would do some sort of choreographed trick flying. Hmm, doing it solo might look silly, so she might do it with a bigger person dancing on the ground and setting up the tricks.

Autor has been trained with the proper footwork, but no amount of training can force him to actually use his skills. He knows how, but he's not the best with a partner, so he'd be more likely to watch the competition than participate.

Tahno is in it to win it.

Alana would be too shy to fully participate, though with the right partner she can cut a rug.

Sherral is at least a competent ballroom dancer.

He hates it, but he's an officer, and there's a certain expectation that he'll attend formal dances and conduct himself adequately at them. So he does ballroom dancing, elegantly and without smiling or acknowledging the presence of anyone who isn't his partner. Then he never speaks of it again.

...

Yugo, meanwhile, has a whale of a time and dances like nobody's watching.

But they are. They are watching.

Once someone forcesencourages Duster to join, he's not going to try to back out. His dad taught him how to do a dungeon puzzle-relevant dance, but it's very silly and he's going to embarrass himself on the floor.

One day I want a reason for Duster to do That Dance like his father before him in front of another person.

Clementine: Every single rumba-type dance there is. Duo, of course. Annd now I want Clem and Sam to take dancing lessons together.

Dixie: Solo, and see Clem's answers. She likes sinuous motion.

Juliet: MODERN. Hip-Hop. And she'd try for solo but Shawn would involve himself, and you know he would.

Pinkie Pie: Rythm solo, with can-can thrown in.

Eponine: Minuet. Whatever dance the ladies do, she can do, or thinks she can.
