IC It took a few tries before he had found what he was looking for and pulled out a leather bound sketchbook, opening it up and tossing through the pages before he found a few good ones and showed it proudly to Cain. They were a bunch of pencil sketches of cute cartoonish styled animals, mostly puppies and kittens doing humorous antics. "These are some of my favorites, I tend to draw the little kittens and puppies more than anything up, it's usually just these six though...maybe I should give them names," Max mused thoughtfully.

im having secondhand embarrassment for Arlo because I feel awkward about dancing as well,gah, I hate it when that happens >.<) "Sounds good." Arlo replied and walked out the door after nodding in thanks to Kuro who held it open."He knew where the ballroom was as well since he had memorized the map of the school,but didn't say anything,content with just following Kuro at the moment as he got lost in his thoughts. He really hoped he wouldn't make a fool of himself in front of Kuro,he could feel a warm blush crossing his cheeks already as he pictured tripping over his own feet. OOC XD poor Arlo. Skip to the ballroom? ICText

Cain's lips twitched and his expression grew gentle. 'I like to draw my cat.' He said. 'He's in my room at the moment, he's a sweet little black-coated oriental.' He smiled up at the male, finding himself really starting to like him, which was quite surprising. 'And maybe you should name them. It would give them more character.'

August had gotten distracted from the current task and was looking at an interesting piece by an artist named Lindsey Stirling who seemed to specialize in violin.He looked up only when he heard Mackenzie had found the piece he had originally been looking for."Oh?"He walked over and picked up a copy of the piece and quickly looked over the notes."Well,this looks doable."He finally said,then sat down and set down his violin case to begin setting up. here it is gumball) and sure,we can skip to the ballroom)

IC "Hmm, well in that case, how about you name them?" Max suggested, looking over to him. The dogs were a corgi, a Great Dane, and a Dalmatian, the cats were a tabby, a Persian, and a calico. He really only drew these six, none had names but he really enjoyed drawing them, Max liked to think they all belonged to a fun kids show about animals, however he was also terrible with names.
-
Kuro walked into the ballroom and took in a breath, it was huge, he liked it. "Here we are, so do you know any ballroom dancing, like the basics, or anything at all?" He asked him, glancing back at Arlo. "If you don't know anything, thats fine too, I just need to know what I am working with," he added, figuring he would have to show him some of what he knew first...which would be hard without a dance partner but he would manage.

Cain immediately looked very flustered and flapped his hands about a bit. 'N-no, I couldn't, they're yours.' He quickly said, looking a little bit terrified at be prospect of being given the responsibility of making some else's characters.

Arlo looked around the huge ballroom in awe,it was just plain amazing.The soaring ceiling,the huge windows,the polished floor,he paused a moment to take it all in before looking at Kuro."I've never had in lessons,so Im completely in the dark."He admitted slowly.he had wanted to try,but never did,always saying he was to busy with schoolwork or with show jumping even though that wasn't necessarily true.

IC "But I'm horrible at names though, I was thinking maybe Peaches for the corgi...and Spotty for the Dalmatian...but I really don't know about the others," Max said, looking at the sketches as he flipped to another page to show off more sketches of the six.
-
Kuro nodded. "Hmm...alright, well, to properly show you what I know I would need a dance partner with at least a little experience. So...with ballroom dancing, the easiest of all is the box step, for dancing like that you too, will need a partner, do you know where you are supposed to place your hands?" He questioned, feeling a tad awkward about all this but he didn't know how to go about it.

'uhm...' Cain mumbled, looking awkward. 'I don't know.... I would call the Great Dane Cerberus, but that's Greek, and I'm... I don't know...' he trailed off and began to tuck himself back into his nest and curl up again, using it as a comfort blanket to escape.

ahhhhhhhhhhh awkwardness, ahhhhhhhhhh! )
Arlo shook his head stiffly,feeling a bit hopeless at how little he knew. With no experience at all,this would be interesting."Sorry,im not really sure..."He stated.It seemed logical to have a dance partner,but Kuro would need one as well to show the moves properly,to bad Arlo didn't know anyone else yet that could help out.

IC Max nodded, writing it down along with Spotty and Peaches. "Perfect, now we just need to name the cats!" Max said proudly, more than happy to let Cain do the naming considering he was fairly bad at it and his creative juices had officially been drained from him at that point and he had no idea what to call any of the cats.
-
(The awkwardness is real.)
Kuro nodded and took a step closer to him. "Alright, we'll see how this works. I assume you want to know the man's part in the dance, so...put a hand on my waist, and then we are supposed to hold the other hands...Don't worry, I'm sure this will be much less awkward for you when you can dance with a girl," he promised, trying and kind of failing to ease the awkwardness. However if Arlo wanted to dance, he would have to get used to this.

'Um... I'm really not sure...' he mumbled, glancing around the room both for an escape, and for inspiration, hoping that if he named the damn things the guy would stop pressuring him. 'Moggy, Queen and Neko.' He awkwardly said, using names associated with cats. And, of course, they all pretty much just meant cat.

oh don't worry,Arlo doesn't mind,mwahahahaha...)
Arlo nodded,then took a step closer to Kuro as well. He reached out and placed his hand on Kuro's waist,and then took his offered hand into his own."Don't worry,it's not that awkward...I hope you're not uncomfortable though.."He said,then looked away slightly,hoping he wasn't being a burden on his friend.
sorry,short post >.<)

OOC Sorry for the poof, I had to walk my dog.
IC "Perfect! Moggy can be the Persian, Queen can be the calico, and Neko can be the tabby," Max said, scribbling down the names quickly. "Thanks for helping me name them all! I should make some comics about them all," Max mused thoughtfully, completely oblivious to how Cain felt, poor guy might be a bit uncomfortable with Max's antics.
-
"Oh, no I'm not uncomfortable," Kuro dismissed the idea quickly. "I'm quite comfortable dancing with either gender, which is why I have memorized both parts for dancing, so whoever I dance with can be comfortable," he explained with a smile, it was a bit awkward but he wasn't uncomfortable. "Now, I'm going to take a step back and you're going to take a step forward, one foot at a time, you can watch your and my feet as much as you want, as this is really just a demonstration."

((Hey, Crest? Could there be an Ice Rink here for selfish reasons? π Cainy-baby needs something to do))
'it's okay.' Cain replied, starting to finally relax upon seeing his traumatising situation was over. He glanced at his watch, then up at Maxi, and decided that although he was sufficiently terrified of the male, he sort of liked him. 'I'm... going to go feed my cat, and then my horse, if you'd like to meet them.' He hesitantly offered.

Arlo nodded,glad that there wasn't any problems with the arrangement."Okay.."He replied as Kuro explained the process,the explanation simple enough.He glanced down at Kuro's and his feet,preparing himself for when Kuro started moving."Do you dance with others often?"He asked as he continued to prepare himself,curious to hear more about Kuro;s dancing history.

"Not the point though, I would love to see your pets," he explained, putting the sketchbook back in the bag and closing it up.

Cain smiled slightly and got to his feet, rising up to his full 6'4" height and stretching his arms above his head. Curled up in the beanbags, he had looked deceptively much shorter. He picked them up and carried them over to where they should be, before beckoning for Maxi to follow and heading towards the suits, sliding his hands into his pockets as he leisurely walked.

OOC Text ICKuro took another step back, hoping that Arlo got the picture. "Mm, I do, I dance with plenty of people, it's a nice way to relax in a way, besides, to dance you often need a dance partner, if I want to dance I would been a partner," he explained, though it was pretty obvious at that. "Now I am going to try and start leading you around the ballroom, just follow my feet and you should be fine," he instructed.

"I really didn't think you were very tall before, with all the beanbags and stuff," he confessed, glad to have someone right around his height. He didn't like always being the tallest.

Cain laughed softly and looked at him, smiling at him warmly. 'My sister is the same height, and loves wearing six inch heels.' He said. 'Our Dad is 6'8", so it's understandable where we got our height from. My mitera is very short, only around 5'8.' He led the way up into the suites, taking a key from around his neck, which he'd looped a chai nthrough in order to not lose it. He unlocked the door and walked in, and almost immediately erupted loud, happy meowing as a gorgeous black oriental came padding over, his tail raised high and eyes wide and happy, mouth slightly open. Cain crouched and scooped him into his arms, then stepped back into the room and smiled up at Maxi. 'He might not agitate your allergies because he's the short-furred breed, and he doesn't shed unless its winter.' He said. 'His name is Thanatos. Thanatos, this Maxi.' Thanatos meowed in response, licking at Cain's cheek. 'He's very talkative.'

Arlo did his best to follow Kuro's movements,at least he wasn't tripping over him as he feared. he listened as best as he could while concentrating on his feet,but was able to hear Kuro talk about the others he had danced with. "I don't know if I'll ever get to the point where I can dance in a relaxing manner."He commented as he continued the movements that seemed so easy when Kuro did them,but felt so complicated to him. Hearing what Kuro planned next,he did his best not to get worked up as he prepared to follow his partners next movements.

It wasn't fair, he loved animals and he would love to have some of his own, but he was allergic, face went red, nose went runny, eyes went red, it was awful but he just couldn't stay away from the furry things.

'Why don't you get a Sphinx cat?' Cain suggested, moving the cat away from the boy and over to a bench, opening up a tin of tuna and setting it down for the oriental to dig in. He then returned to Maxi and smiled slightly as he left his room, closing the door behind him. 'Next up; horse.' He jokingly said, starting to walk again.

"Well, you are very good at it so far, I'm impressed...Will you just want to know the basics or would you like me to teach you some more fancy moves?" He asked.
