[littlesoul]

[River is grinning wide as the feed turns on and she only seems to get happier as moments pass.]

I got boots! [She laughs, utterly delighted by this and gives a kick in the air to show off her newly acquired boots from the Fruit Of Blessings.]

This means someone should come dancing with me. [She looks hopefully at the screen but wont' be disappointed if she can't find anyone. She will happily dance by herself at this point.] Anyone interested?

[Right at the very start of the feed, there's a second where Jamie also looks quite pleased as he spares a glance down at a sheepskin vest he's wearing. But as he glances up again, the expression turns into one of faint confusion, his brow furrowing just a touch as he looks at her.]

Hey? What does dancing have to do with getting new boots?

[littlesoul]

Everything! [She says it as if it's obvious. Which, to her, it is.]

[bonnypiperlad]

Oh, aye, I see.

[He totally doesn't, but he'll go with it anyway.]

Alright, then, say someone did agree to go dancing with ye. What sorts do ye have in mind?

[sexyoldgirl]

Dancing. [Something she hasn't done yet. Clearly this is a sign that it must be rectified.]

Where?

[littlesoul]

[Obviously. River will happily dance away the day with the TARDIS, if it turns out to be something she enjoys.]

Anywhere. I can find you and we can dance anywhere. Spin under the sky fall down into the arms of the world..

[sexyoldgirl]

[Chances are that she won't be nearly as good at it as River. But that's not the point, is it?]

As close to the sky as we can get.

[madcuriosity]

I would love to come dancing with you, Miss River!

Re: [Video]

[littlesoul]

[OH look, Alice. You are making River bounce!] Where are you? I'll find you, then we go dancing! Anywhere you want, even.

[madcuriosity]

I'm in the park with Marigold!

[vapidfloozy]

Oh, I'm sure a fair lass like yourself will find boatloads of men interested in taking you out for a spin around the dancefloor!

[littlesoul]

[She grins.] I'm hoping! [She giggles[ Not everyone likes to dance though.

[vapidfloozy]

If they have the right person to dance with, they might change their minds.

[5thchild]

Can you not dance without boots?

[littlesoul]

No, I can, it's just good to have them. Keeps me from floating off.

[5thchild]

Floating off?

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

You don't need to ask. Where do I find you?

[littlesoul]

Outside the library! [She spins, clearly excited by the prospect.]

[ simon smiles, though the gesture doesn't quite reach his eyes. he hasn't had as much good fortune with the apple trees as she has, but he tries not to let it show because right now it doesn't matter. what matters now is that river has new boots and she wants to go dancing.

grinning, he exhales a quiet chuckle. ]

Someone looks happy.

[littlesoul]

Got something good, it's worth being happy over. [She grins wide.

But there's something of about her her brother, something she can't quite pinpoint. It makes her tilt her head, study him a little more closely.] What's wrong?

[usandthedead]

[ He can't help but grin a bit at that kick in the air to show off the boots. ]

You seem happy.

[littlesoul]

[She nods, looking quite pleased indeed.] It was a surprise! It's worth being happy.

[valianced]

Oh, boots! Are they comfortable? I always liked boots the best I think. But I'd love to come dancing! I think I might be a little short but... dancing is fun no matter how tall you are!

[littlesoul]

Meet you outside the library?

[advocacy]

[Daneca smiles and laughs a little.]

You like to dance?

[littlesoul]

[River nods.] Mmhm. Always liked dancing. It feels like the right way to move.
