"Understood." Rei bobbed her head, clasping her hands together behind her back. Following Homura's gaze, her eyes met with Fire who was performing a tune on her fiddle. "You keep watching her," The First Child observed pensively, "Why?"

Homura started, eyes immediately darting away from Fire. "You've noticed, surely, her very appearance can somehow.. bewitch you? And her music, too, is.." She trailed off, unable to explain Fire's effect on her. "She's beautiful," came the quiet afterthought, barely above a whisper.
A thought occurred to her after a moment, and she turned to Rei once again. "Would you like to dance?"
Hinata placed one hand carefully on Naegi's side. "I took a class in sixth grade," he confessed. "I only lasted a week." He held back a sheepish chuckle. "I'm assuming you've never done this, either?" The lucky student outright confessed he didn't know how, so..

"...No, never," Naegi admitted with a shake of his head, grip on Hinata's hand tightening slightly. "I mean, unless you count the times where my sister and I just did whatever and called it dancing... Although, we only did that when we were young. Thankfully." Chuckling lightly, he peered past Hinata to spot Noctin, a worry look crossing his face.
...No, he should enjoy this moment for what it was. Talk to Noctin later.
Forcing a smile back on his face, Naegi hesitantly took a step back. "Is, uh... Is this right...?"

"..Yes?" the answer came slowly, as if unsure himself, stepping forward to meet Naegi when he took a step back. "I'm actually not sure how to start this," he muttered, holding back laughter at his own expense. "I think I just take a step around..." he trailed off, glancing up to meet Naegi's eyes, trusting his feet and where they planned to go. Of course, naturally, Hinata felt his right foot step on the lucky student's toes. "No, uh, not there, Okay, well-" he was quick to step off, still attempting to hold back laughter at the ridiculousness of the situation. Hinata placed his foot in the correct place the second go, trying to keep himself constantly moving and and get in tune with the music currently playing. He frowned in mild concentration. "Sorry about that."

"Ow!" Naegi yelped, pulling his foot back when Hinata had stepped off. Flexing his toes slowly, a troubled frown came to his face. "...That hurt," he whined softly, gaze focused on the ground so he could follow his dance partner's steps. Despite the fact he was focusing on the floor and where Hinata had placed his feet, he still managed to somehow step on the other's feet, leg jolting back when he realized what he had done. "O-oh, I'm so sorry...!" The words fell out of his mouth, clutching the fabric at Hinata's waist.
...This was a complete and utter mess of feet stepping on toes.
At this realization, Naegi ducked his head to try and stifle his giggles but, alas... That wasn't really his strong suite. So, the lucky student ended up bursting out laughing at the sheer pity of it all, grip on his partner relaxing again, shaking with chuckles and gasps.
Noctin standing off to himself had caught Komaeda's eye. The jealousy he could read on his face only intrigued him further, so, stepping lightly as to make as little sound as possible, he approached him from behind. "Is that jealousy I smell?" He suddenly spoke up, a teasing edge to his words.

"If you're trying to convince me, it's not working. You're way too defensive," Komaeda frowned, crossing his arms in thought. "If you really want to sell it, I'd suggest relaxing and pretending to be happy. Even give me a big smile, like this!" He proceeded to grin widely, before ending off in a small laugh.
"Buuut, if it makes you feel better, you can dance with me!" Komaeda offered with a slight tilt of his head, smile now ever so present on his face. "You can just shut your eyes and pretend my voice is Naegi-kun's. I'll even step on your toes and everything for the authentic experience."

Hinata's shoulders shook with restrained laughter at the fact Naegi stepped on his toes only a minute later, despite the mild pain. Of course, when the lucky student stuttered an apology, and abruptly hung his head, shaking, Hinata assumed this situation had hurt his feelings. A concerned look flashed across his face as he watched him like this. "N-Naegi...?"
Of course, when he had an outburst like that, Hinata stared in slight surprise; But, then, his own amusement overcame him as well, and he found himself snorting and wheezing with jovial laughter alongside Naegi at their situation. Grinning, and gradually calming down, he looked Naegi in the eyes again as he spoke up. "Well, I can't say I'm surprised," he sighed, another stray giggle bubbling out of him, "Komaeda joked and called me Super High School Level Clumsy once. Maybe thats my talent," he joked lightheartedly, unaware of Naegi being SHSL himself. Hinata assumed he would have to explain what he meant to the lucky student, but..

Naegi's hand left Hinata's hip to wipe away the tears that began to gather under his mask, his laughing fit degrading to a small giggle here and there. The joy he felt, however, was quickly replaced with shock when he heard the boy's remark, eyes widening. "Wait! You go to Hope's Peak Academy too?!" He cried, stepping on Hinata's toe due to his diverted attention. "Ah, sorry," he mumbled, quickly pulling his foot away. This was no time for clumsy mistakes. "I-I'm the Super High School Level Good Luck in my class! Were you guys... abducted, too?"
Maybe it was a strange question to ask, but it was better than 'hey, are you guys being forced to slaughter each other, too? Who are you planning to kill, haha'?
"Hey, hey!" Komaeda quickly threw his hands up, waving them frantically. "I-I was just joking around...! No need to take it so literal," he sighed, placing a gloved palm against his forehead.
"...Just because Naegi-kun is talking to someone else doesn't mean he's ignoring you. He's probably just trying to meet other people, since allies are something you'd really want in this place. If it bothers you that much..." He crossed his arms again, a troubled frown on his face. "...Why don't you just go talk to him? I'm sure he'd be willing to listen."

Eh? You.." Hinata considered his question carefully, before answering quickly, "If your definition of 'abducted' is being taken with your class from school and completely isloated on an island with a stuffed toy for a supposed headmaster, then, uh.. Yes." He had a feeling Naegi would laugh at this and take it as a complete joke, but it was worth a try to attempt articulating. "It is probably the weirdest thing to happen to me all week,"
(okaay got school tomorrow so this is my last reply- since the room continues on, i guess we'll freeze?)

that sounds great wonders!! yeah we'll do it tomorrow, when everyones free ^^))
"EH?!" Naegi cried, leaning in slightly with wide eyes. "Well, I mean, we aren't on an island, but we're trapped inside the school! So, are you too..." ...being forced to kill someone for freedom?
Something in his gut told him he shouldn't ask. That Hinata would understand if it was happening to him, too...
"Oh, thank god... I thought there'd be no one else here who'd ever understand how weird this all is...!" The relief was overwhelming, causing him to laugh softly, yet a cloud of dread was still looming over him. Naegi knew what the cause of that cloud was, and it made his stomach twist horribly. "I just... I just don't know..." Tears bit at the corner of his eyes, until they finally began to fall down his face from under his mask. He was finally cracking from all the stress. "I don't know... what I'm supposed to do now..." His voice was as pathetically weak as he felt and, to save what little dignity he had left, buried his face in Hinata's chest, shaking with sobs and hiccups. "I-I don't know what to do...! What if... W-what if someone dies because of me...?"
Reluctantly sighing, Komaeda frowned. "...Well, that's your choice, then," he remarked, stepping around Noctin, foot sweeping around his other one as he walked. "I can't tell you what to do. Just don't get mad at Naegi-kun over what you could've solved with communication. Jealousy does good for no one..." Suddenly, he stopped in front of the Desolate, shaking his head disapprovingly. "...Being so stubborn isn't a good thing, you know."
