[ The camera switches on as Mithian falls into a chair with a soft bout of laughter. She looks into the bracelet with a sweet sort of encouraging smile even as she rubs the top of one foot. When she speaks she sounds graciously amused--] If the gallant Sir Gwaine's dancing is indication there may be a few of you that could use a few lessons out there.

[ Hasty and defeated-sounding interjection from off screen for her troubles: ] You have my word that I'm well-coordinated in every other aspect of my life, Princess.

[ Mithian grins to the camera.] I am sure that is true. Regardless, I would be glad to give dancing lessons to anyone who is willing, if only to spare the feet of others as well as my own. If anyone is interested, please, let me know.

[ Gwaine sure is just standing off to the side here, not looking guilty or put out by this discovery of a thing he wasn't quite gifted with at all. Regrets are for people with other lacking areas, obviously.

Yes.

Well, maybe there's one odd glance and sympathetic wince towards her feet. But still. ]

I'm sure people could only benefit from such a patient teacher.

actionnnn

[burping]

You're not a poor dancer, Sir Gwaine. There's just some room for improvement. [ She rubs her foot one more time before standing up with a smile.] We can try again, if you'd like.

[verybigpheasants]

You may be the bravest soul in all the Five Kingdoms, milady, and I fear for the well-being of your feet at that rate. [ Such a shame all around. Last thing he wants is to damage the princess. ] And here I'd thought I couldn't pull another knight out onto to the floor because I wasn't pretty enough, eh? Turns out they've only got a sense of preservation after all.

[ No amount of stoic manly sulking could ever deter a joke and a wink. Ever constant presences in the world. ]

[burping]

Perhaps they are wise and know that your feet get a bit tangled at times. [ She laughs at his jokes, holding out her hand despite the meanings behind them.] I would have you be the most graceful dancer from Camelot if you let me.

I would like to learn.

[Video]

[burping]

You would! Wonderful. May I ask your name?

[Video]

[5thchild]

I'm Kaworu Nagisa.

[burping]

Kaworu. It is good to meet you. Have you any experience with dancing?

[canttakemysky]

Dancing lessons.

[For a moment, he puts his hand to his chin, his index finger upright against his cheek and the rest of them covering his mouth. Well, perhaps some measure of normalcy helps people out in a place like this.

He moves his hand away from his face, actually considering it for a moment. Tāmāde, he was actually considering taking dancing lessons.

God, he needs to find steadier work.]

...Would there be a lot of opportunities to dance here? Because I haven't seen very many so far.

[Video]

[burping]

I would see that there were. This place is in sore need of a ball or some sort of entertainment.

[Video]

[canttakemysky]

...Well. That certainly is one way to look at it.

[He can't argue with the fact that some people could probably use the distraction.]

So, have you taught it before, back in your own world? Or is it just something you enjoy?

[Video]

[burping]

No. I'm afraid to say I am not a teacher.

[Merlin gives them a hearty round of applause--well, it's for Mithian, mostly.]

Congratulations, Mithian. You've braved what no one else would dare. [He chuckles.] So what brought this on?

[Video]

[burping]

You know? I am not even sure how it was brought up but Gwaine mentioned that he was not the finest dancer. [ And she laughs.] And it seems he is not.

Yet.

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

Then, he's lucky to have such a talented instructor.

[He quirks a brow, looking like he's suppressing laughter still.]

Has he improved any since you started?

[verybigpheasants]

[ She deserves awards for this. ]

Man of sturdy feet, aren't you, Merlin? If you would like to chivalrously stand in for the Princess for a moment, I'm happy to demonstrate my improvement. [ Or general lack thereof whatever whatever. He loves you, man. ]

yes she does

[dragonspeak]

[Merlin holds up his hands in surrender, laughing.]

You should know how terrible I am at this sort of thing, Gwaine. I'm more likely to step on your toes than you are mine.

[ealdorsprince]

I'm not sure I'd have much use for dancing, but it looks like you're doing a bit better.

[He means since the last time you both talked.]

[burping]

I am, thank you, William. And how are you?

[ealdorsprince]

I'm doing all right. I'm better now that I'm not lost anywhere.

[He pauses.]

So did you keep it? I mean the item you were going to sell?

[pratentious]

[ Meanwhile, Arthur is red in the face from trying not to laugh. ]

Don't take his word for it, Mithian. There is absolutely nothing graceful about this one. Are you quite all right?

[ video ]

[burping]

I believe he has the potential to have grace. [ She laughs lightly.] But yes, I am fine, nothing some ice and a bit of rest won't fix. However I am determined to make a dancer out of Gwaine, if I can.

[ video ]

[pratentious]

You are a braver soul than most, my Lady, to put to task the impossible. You may here a while.

[verybigpheasants]

[ omg arthur i am as graceful as a healthy deer ]

[pratentious]

[ ya




ok. ]
