[and lo, sqx and yuel head over to the rec room! since she's not hungover today, she looks pretty energetic and excited.]
I'm looking forward to this!

It's good to see you too, Lust! How are you doing?
I'm glad to hear that. And oh, that should work!
[just heading right on over to start pulling chairs out of the way!]

[ Yuel will also hop to it, booty bopping things out of the way and roughly shoving tables against the wall.
She looks at the TV again before carefully draping a rug over it.
Looking over the space, she places he hands on her hips, and nods. ]
Lookin' good!

We could each perform the type of dance we're already familiar with, so we know where we're starting. Yuel, would you like to go first?
Hehe, gladly!
[ She's happy to take the stage in the centre of the room, starting the movements of the dance. It's traditional and precise, sweeping movements from both her arms and legs in a building rhythm that quickens to a rapid pace before slowing to a stop. ]
Ta-da! It's called the Crimson Dance. I normally dance with swords but... I ain't got 'em here.

[lust stands off to the side with sqx, watching yuel go. if they could see under their hood, they may get the sense their eyes are wide before they break into applause.]
That was so cool! I loved the way you built up the momentum right up to the end! Is it hard to dance with swords? I'd be afraid of cutting myself.

[APPLAUDS]
Yuel, that was amazing! It was beautiful to watch even without swords, but it must be breathtaking with them!

Hehe. [ She's 100% soaking up the praise, rubbing the back of her head. ] I practiced with dummy swords when I was a kid, but ya get used to 'em bein' like part of yer body. When I get 'em back I'll show ya the proper dance.
What kinda dancin' do you two do? I only learned folk dances when I was grownin' up, but Grace told me there's a lot where she comes from. Ballet, hip hop...

I'd love to see it! And I bet Shi Qingxuan would, too. [but they take a finger to their chin, somehow. it kind of gets lost in the hood. it's fine.]
Grace knows a lot of the same kind of dances I do, from what it sounds like! But I love jazz and contemporary so I can make up my own choreography. The best kind of dancing is the kind where you really get into the music.
[and they turn to sqx] But I think it's your turn to demonstrate, huh?

I would!
[please show them your sword dance, yuel! shi qingxuan really wants to see it. honestly, she'd like to see lust's dances... and grace's too? wow, sounds like we'll have to grab zia for a dance pc at some point!!
anyway, oh right, it's time for her to demonstrate. she heads over to do that, then, withdrawing her fan from her belt and unfolding it. time to do a fan dance!
the day i stop linking this gif is the day you know i've been replaced by a pod person it's so pretty. also, fan dances in general are just pretty.]

[ack! with a laugh, shi qingxuan accepts the clap on the back and gives yuel a quick hug before sweeping her arm in a bow to lust.]
Thank you, thank you! Now, I believe it's your turn to show us your moves, Lust?
Thank you, thank you! Now, I believe it's your turn to show us your moves, Lust?
[it means lust laughs as they take a step back to give themselves some room.]
Well I can't guarantee that, but I hope you like it!
[but they have a promise to keep, so they begin! they start with their back facing the two of them before they begin to step from side to side, turning to face the front before adding some movements of their arms. they step from side to side, swinging their arms in a graceful fluid motion, waving their hands and nodding to a beat. they mime playing the drums. they continue to step from side to side and move their arms from side to side, turning in circles...it's all very precise, actually, and lust seems to be humming to themselves?
neither of them will really understand, but given this is the hardest description to write? the moves are very similar to what an idol would do with the turns, arm movements, sidesteps and bows. and at the end they strike a pose with one arm in the air. tada~!]

[me, reading the description: para-para dancing??
anyway, shi qingxuan watches as lust dances. the arm movements are pretty interesting! she'd almost expect her to be holding something, but, well, she's used to fan dances, so.
when lust strikes a pose, she applauds.]
What an energetic dance! It looked like you were having so much fun!
