You all better kiss.

[Have I reiterated that this is so much for his ye olde mind? But Verso will employ his talent of going with the flow soon enough—if Poppy's already having so much fun, why shouldn't he?—though he has to just stare at her impressive flossing moves first.

...It's a bit mesmerizing, he must admit.]

How are you-

[The bass is suddenly BOOSTED, the song hitting a loud crescendo.]

HOW ARE YOU DOING THAT.

[fireball]

[ That's the spirit! Just have fun!! She grins wider, basking in his attention, undeterred by neither the bass nor his shouting. ]

Like this! [ And she'll slow down, for his benefit. Also shouting: ] Just follow my lead!

[reverso]

[Well, that settles it: no shame at all, in the name of having fun.]

Sure!

[Verso starts flossing. Slowly. He's just mimicking her motions so it's a bit of a clumsy start, but repetition is key.

Look at them go.]

Like this?!

[fireball]

[ Look at them go!! ]

Yeah, you've got it! You're like a natural!

[ Their dancing skills are almost certainly on par with one another's — and in the spirit of encouraging him along, she'll speed right up. ]

[reverso]

[Well, he manages it with a few moments more of practice, since flossing itself is not that difficult of a task, and soon-

Behold! Two very interesting dance decisions happening on the dance floor right now.]

Is this a popular dance where you're from, Poppy?! It's very unique!

[fireball]

[ They are, without a doubt, the coolest people at this entire rave. ]

Yeah! It's all the rage. Only the best dancers do this one!

[ She slows down a little to match the music's tempo, as opposed to just being, like, hyperactive. ]

And now you can take it back to your world! Teach all of your friends!

[ Is this what it is to be an influencer... this is awesome. ]

[reverso]

[If only, because she has chosen the wrong person to influence, probably. Not on account of him not enjoying the dance itself—that much is clear, as he slows to match her tempo, too—but because...

Well. That subject of home is a tricky one.]

I wish I could do that...! Maybe if we can visit everyone's worlds after, I'll spread the good word that way!

[fireball]

[ The times are good, the music is loud, and Verso is hot. Any angst can be saved for the designated angst period, and she will remain blissfully oblivious. ]

Yeah!! That sounds perfect! We can be like, the ultimate globetrotters! Only for dancing!

[ Apparently it's we now! Well why not!! ]
