I don't think my feet have ever been this sore, even after ballet lessons. I'm going to cancel dancing lessons for tomorrow, or else I won't be able to walk next week. Sorry Usagi and Clint, but my toes are more important. If you need help, maybe a teacher can help out tomorrow.


Tony, I need your opinion on something. I'll give you... five questions in regards to the situation.

Well we'll just see about that.

I'm counting that as a question. You have four left. [She holds up a pair of strap on heeled sandals.]

[arrogantalloy]

Alright then. Number two; What's with all this? Someone you trying to impress? Obviously not me, or you wouldn't be in here getting my opinion on things.

[Action]

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I just want to look nice, that's all. Teenage girls do that from time to time and I may as well start now since it's a good opportunity.

[Perma-Action]

[arrogantalloy]

And yet you come to me, I know you have girl friends. Or is there something you want to ask me in regards to the whole going to the ball?

[Perma-Action]

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I'm already going with someone so you'll have to go it alone. That's why I need to know what you think. You're the most normal boy this house has.

[arrogantalloy]

Do you now?

[He smirks.]

Normal? Well that's... Insulting. But in anycase, you look stunning, and I dare anyone not to stare at you. It wont happen.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

That's four, and I am. Didn't think that I'd get asked before some girl corned you and refuse to leave until you said yet?

It's not, none of the other boys here would care or know what to do with girl. Thanks Tony.

[arrogantalloy]

So, Clint? Because why else would you be teaching him how to dance? And actually, no. Haven't been asked, and I haven't done any asking.

Hey, not a problem. Glad to have helped, really.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I owed him a favor, and this was how he decided to make me pay up. I told him he had to learn or I'd dance with you half the night.

I'd tell you that I'd look over your dress robes for you but I doubt they would be unstylish.

[arrogantalloy]

There better be at least one dance with me. To save your toes if nothing else.

[He grins at her then nods at his trunk. What he shall be wearing.]

On the left.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Of course, I`ll give you two since dancing with you might be the only way to get him to start.

[She opens the trunk and pulls it out, nodding.]

Very nice, you'll probably be the best dressed guy there.

[arrogantalloy]

I'm probably the only one with any real fashion sense. So there's also that. And well, when your mom doesn't dress you, you tend to look better than most.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Probably, not that I know from experience. I just have a father telling me what not to wear.

[arrogantalloy]

One of the upsides to them being dead. Not that he would have cared if he was, really.

[Apathetic shrugs]

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Some times I wonder what my birth parents would be like, but then I remember that they didn't keep my so why care?

[She puts on the shoes to show what it would like.]

[arrogantalloy]

They had their reasons I guess. Maybe you're a princess, and they did that to keep you from being found by an evil queen? Because they didn't know dwarves were so easy to find.

[He looks at her in the shoes, and then nods appreciatively.]

No, now that's. Yeah, there's going to be more than two dances.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

I better get a start on saving myself then since I haven't met a prince yet.

[She does another turn before sitting on Tony's bed since he's taking up Bruce's bed.]

I suppose I could pencil you in for a few more.

[arrogantalloy]

Hey, I could always fill that position you know.

[He turns to look at her.]

I suppose it would be a good thing if you did.

[actuallyspeakslatin]

Could you imagine that? Us arguing over who got to save each other all the time?

Not too many though, I don't need your other partners getting all jealous at me and have to put them in their place.

[arrogantalloy]

What arguing? You'd be saving me all the time.

I'm pretty sure that's never a problem you're going to have to worry about.
