John smiled and said," Well the fairy that I am looken for is a great beauty and knows how to have a little fun." John wasn't looking for someone or anything special he just wanted to find a date.

IC Kuro smiled at him as Arlo entered. "I am doing quite well today, and you?" He asked, actually fairly excited about this, he hadn't been able to really do much yet, and dancing was a good substitute for when he could do more reckless things. He figured he would first show what they would be focusing on by leading himself, and then once Arlo seemed to understand, Kuro would have him lead, since he doubted Arlo wanted to be lead all the time during the dance.

"Im fine myself."Arlo replied.He was ready to get started,especially now that he was starting to get a hand of things.Dancing really wasn't so bad,maybe he should have took those lessons his parents suggested after all."So,what will we being doing today?"He asked,and started doing some basic stretches to loosen himself a bit,starting with his arms.He wondered how much Kuro wanted to teach him,and how much he could learn before the quickly approaching dance.As he thought about the dance,he subconsciously wondered what he would do about finding a date.

John wasn't looking for someone or anything special he just wanted to find a date. OOC I'm really torn between liking Sal as a character or disliking, because he's clearly a dork, who has a pet lizard that he treats better than most people, however he's so sexist and full of himself, it's funny but I kinda just wanna smack him on the back of his head. IC"Good luck finding that. where should we look first for these er 'fairies' then, John was it?" Sal asked, not sure if he had a plan or not yet, because Sal didn't, he was just in the kitchen to get Pablo a snack...which he didn't end up getting because he got distracted by Emma, who turned out not to be the best girl to charm, she didn't know what she was talking about when she didn't know if he was the most handsome prince there. He obviously was.

John sighed and said," I would love to say I have a plan but sadly i have no clue on where we can begin to try and find a date." John was the kind of guy who at times doesn't think all his plans through.

OOC Text ICKai nodded. "Good, now as for dancing...I have a video I would like to show you of what I would like to teach you," he explained and went over to grab his phone and pull up the video. "I don't expect us to get to this point, but this is what you said you wanted to learn, so I thought this would be a good video to show you what we would be doing," he explained and played the video, it was just one he had found on Youtube, titled Stanford Viennese Ball 2013 opening committee waltz. (Real video). "Notice how their hands are placed a bit different, that is the correct way to have them, what I instructed before was simply the easiest way and I did not want to make you uncomfortable until I knew what I was working with. Obviously we would not be dancing among so many other people so organized and such, nor would we be trading partners with anyone, but that is what I hope to teach you, if you are up for it," Kuro told him...though he often forgot that most people didn't need to be perfect at it when they are just learning how to dance for the upcoming dance. But still, he thought it couldn't be too hard, it was mostly just spinning and dancing.

"Perfect, I guess we'll just wander around the academy until we stumble across our dream date girls, si?" He asked dryly, not in a very charming mood, but that could change in an instance once he had someone to charm, which he didn't at the time.

I watched some of the video,that looks interesting ;3 *imagines Arlo and Kuro dancing the same way* lol that sure would be something)
Arlo walked over to Kuro to watch the video he had pulled up.Arlo watched the video,studying quickly the moves the dancers were performing,as he did so,he listened as Kuro explained what they would be doing."Wow,thats quite something,that synchronization is nearly perfect...but yeah,singling out a single pair shows it to be understandable enough.Though I have a bit to learn yet."Arlo said finally,looking up at Kuro as he did so.

OOC Yeah. IC"Yes. You do, but it should be easy enough to catch onto. I was thinking we would first go over it with me leading, and then once you understand the steps, then you can take over leading, I am figuring you will want to lead with whoever you dance with at the dance, so it seems fitting you get the hang of it now," he said as he brought his phone back to the speaker and plugged it in, playing some ballroom music.

Arlo nodded in agreement and rose to is full height,preparing himself for the lesson."That sounds just fine.."Arlo said,watching Kuro as he set up the music.His words on the dance had him thinking again of how that would go,with the dance coming up so quickly,he was running out of time to ask someone.Those thoughts led him to watching Kuro,and wondering if he should ask him to go to the dance with him.He didn't know if he would even have the courage to do so.

IC Once the music started playing, Kuro walked back over to Arlo and smiled, bowing to him slightly. "Alright, do you remember where to place your hands?" He asked as he offered him one hand and placed his other on Arlo's shoulder. He would be the one leading the first time, but he wasn't going to switch up where the hands go when he had Arlo already used to the man's role in the dance.

Shaking himself from his thoughts,Arlo smiled and nodded in reply to Kuro's question.He walked up to Kuro and bowed as well before taking his hand in his and placing his other hand in the correct position. Arlo readied himself,waiting for Kuro's cue to begin following his lead.His mind was already focused on the upcoming steps,perhaps overthinking it a bit,even though he had proved he wasn't as terrible as he thought he would be at dancing,he still feared he would trip.

IC Kuro gave it a second before he gave the cue to dance and started them off, following along the steps of the video. "So, I found out that cats are allowed. My other ten cats are being brought here sometime throughout the week," he said, as Kuro had found it was easiest to dance when you weren't thinking too much about it. "I also believe I made a new friend, her name is Charlotte. Funnily enough I met her in the library too, it must be a good place to meet people," he mused, hoping he wasn't distracting Arlo.

After Kuro gave the cue,Arlo began following the steps,still looking at his feet as he wasn't completely comfortable without doing so.He did glance up though when Kuro began talking about his cats."Is that so? I still have to send for Di,but Bucephalus is settling in nicely.I can't wait to meet the rest of your furry friends,if you don't mind introducing me that is."He replied with a grin.He began imagining himself once more buried under a giant pile of cats and chuckled slightly.

IC Kuro smiled at him. "Of course not, I would love to introduce my cats to you as soon as they get here. I promise you that most of them are far friendlier than Mattie is, he's just the equivalent of a grumpy old man. However the others are far more kind. I think you'll like them, especially Pika. He is so friendly, I think he is the favorite of most people who meet him," he said as he started to spin.

Arlo smiled once more at Kuro,but glanced down at his feet again as the steps changed."Can't wait."He said,looking up once again."So,you made a new friend? Thats nice,I haven't been so lucky yet,but it could be because i've been busy the past few days finalizing paperwork and such for school and Bucephalus.."Arlo said,curious about this new friend Kuro had made.

IC "Yes, she was reading a book, we had a nice discussion," he explained, smiling when he continued to dance. "So, have you asked anyone to the dance yet? It didn't occur to me until recently that it is coming up fast, and we won't be able to include as many lessons as I had hoped in before it takes place," he said, leading them around a bit more. At the moment Kuro was thinking of waiting until someone needed a date and going with them, so no one felt excluded.

Arlo blinked at the question,caught off guard slightly after listening to Kuro talk about his new friend."Oh,no,I haven't yet..."He explained,trailing off,not really having much to add.He knew with the topic right there it would be the perfect chance to ask Kuro,but he hesitated.He had never really been bold in such situations,as he had never asked anyone to anything,date or otherwise.He glanced down at his feet,feeling awkward suddenly.

IC "Ah, neither have I," Kuro said. "I was thinking of waiting to see if anyone is without a date, and then ask them. However, I would also rather not go with a stranger," he confessed with a small frown. "Now, would you care to try some of the other moves in the video? Such as the pick up and the dips?" He asked, needing to know so he could show Arlo how if he wanted to do that.

mwahahahahaha perfect chance for Kuro to dip Arlo!! lol)
His mind still debating whether to ask Kuro or not,Arlo nearly missed his question."That would be great,yeah,I've always been interested in doing those kind of moves."It was true,even though he had been scared to dance,he had always been fascinated with the amazing move dancers could perform.

OOC Exactly! Kuro's like 5'5 though and I can't imagine it going great, XD Doesn't mean he isn't gonna try.
IC Kuro nodded and paused. "Alright, which one would you like to try first?" He questioned, still trying to go over how he could work either of them in this, he wasn't sure how to go about this, though he would need to show Arlo first, which would mean dipping or picking him up and Kuro wasn't sure if he could do that, he wasn't weak, however he wasn't outrageously strong either, he could lift his own weight, but that was about it.

Post by plague on Feb 11, 2017 1:23:03 GMT -5
well,I think dipping would work out better than lifting at least,lol)
"I think I'd like to try dipping...though I understand if you can't really do that.."Arlo said,then sorta regretted his decision,realizing what it meant.Him being 6'1 wouldn't exactly help in this situation when Kuro was like, 8 inches shorter than him.Maybe Kuro could just talk him through it? To be honest with himself though,he was rather curious to see Kuro try to dip him,it might be quite hilarious honestly.

OOC True.
IC Kuro nodded. "Alright...I will try to dip you first so you can at least understand the process, and then once you feel like you understand, you can try to dip me-" which admittedly would work better size wise. He moved his hands into the best position to dip someone, it was a bit intimidating, thinking of even dipping the taller male. "On the count of three, I'll dip you...One...Two...Three," with that he attempted to dip Arlo...emphasis on "attempted."

Arlo let himself get dipped,though his knees felt rather splayed as he tried to help out Kuro by supporting his own weight slightly on them.It was a rather fun experience,getting dipped,though the blood did rush his head.He sure was happy he decided to wear his hair back instead of loose."That was fun."Arlo said to Kuro,with a big grin."My turn."He added with a laugh.He wondered if dipping someone was as fun as getting dipped yourself.

IC Once Kuro brought him back up, he grinned. "I've never dipped someone that much taller than myself before, I feel so accomplished!" Kuro said in an enthusiastic, happy laugh. "Okay, so for you, just copy what I did, it shouldn't be hard, at least it should be easier with me being shorter than you," he told him with a smile, happy to let him take over at this point for a dip.

"Well,congratulations are in order."Arlo replied with a smile.He then positioned his arms as Kuro had and prepared himself to dip his dance partner."Like this,right?"He said,nodding at his position."Okay,here we go then..."He nodded,and then he dipped Kuro,copying as best he could what Kuro had done and hoped he did it well.Dipping actually required a lot of concentration so he didn't accidentally drop your partner,or wrench their neck.
woooh,that was fun ;3 )

IC Kuro grinned up at him, still in a rather good mood. "That's perfect. You are very good at this Arlo, you take to dancing very well," Kuro informed him, waiting until he was brought back up before he moved on. "Lifting might be a bit of a harder thing to show you. If you want to do that, I suggest I just tell you what to do instead of show you," he added, considering Kuro really didn't think he could lift Arlo up.
