Oh, I must say I do rather like the, er, dancing. Not that anyone ought to be forced of course, but it's so festive, I can't help but enjoy it.

Er, if anyone is looking for a partner, I would be happy to oblige. Though I must confess I don't know the steps to a great many dances. But I am quite willing to learn.

[ ACTION ]

[True to his word, the angel is hanging around in the square, alternating between watching the dancers with no small delight, and taking his own only-slightly-awkward turns across the street with various partners.

He will try not to step on your feet. Too much. Er.]

Comments

[mr_phale]

[He really isn't very good at all, but he does try, and he's more than enthusiastic enough to keep up, even if the steps are a bit-- well, more than a bit off.]

What do you call this sort of dancing? I'm afraid I'm not familiar.

[anunluckypenny]

[Off is fine! As long as everyone's having fun!]

I have no idea, but a friend taught it to me and I like it.

[mr_phale]

I think I do as well!

[anunluckypenny]

If Doris ever stops by the City, I'll let her know. Maybe she can teach it to you right.

[mr_phale]

I'm sure you're a better study than I.

[anunluckypenny]

[Penny spins herself, as her dance partner seems disinclined to. It's all good!]

I don't know about that. You'd be surprised by what you can learn with some practice.

[mr_phale]

Well, that's true enough. I suppose a vacation is the best time for, er, such frivolous pursuits.

[anunluckypenny]

Aw, dancing isn't frivolous! It's a good workout. Gets the endorphins flowing.

[mr_phale]

Er, well, I shall have to take your word on that.

[anunluckypenny]

[Good, because she doesn't know that much about endorphins and could be making that up.

Penny twirls away from Aziraphale.] Thanks for the dance!

[mr_phale]

It was my pleasure, my dear.
