"Well, then, I suppose you came to the right place. Being around so many mutants certainly is....different."

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 7:49 am

"So I guessed. That and I wanted to see someplace new too. I do miss Chicago but the place was feeling pretty stagnant. What brought you here from Japan?"

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 7:52 am

"Welll...I suppose I don't exactly fit in in Japan, y'know?"

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 7:53 am

"How's that?"

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 7:55 am

Ayami shifts a little on her stool.

"Well, I kind of stand out, I suppose. And I'm not...exactly...conformist."

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:01 am

Zach thought about that for a moment. He truly didn't know very much about Japanese culture and how they carried themselves. The few shows or cartoons he seen probably didn't do them much justice to being accurate. He frowned.

"I am sorry you feel that way. For what it's worth, I really hope things are much better for you here. Even if it's not home." The bartender sat down Ayami's drink. He picked it up and handed it to her.

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:02 am

"Well," she said, continuing to watch the dancers. "Things ARE looking up. Thank's for the drink; you're sweet."

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:05 am

He looked over at the dancers then back at Ayami. "I guess I can be." He sighed. "I'd ask you to dance but I'd rather not embarrass myself or you."

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:09 am

"Don't like dancing much?"

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:10 am

"It's fun. I just never thought I was very good at it."

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:12 am

"Well, you don't need to be good at it to enjoy it..."

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:13 am

"This is true." He finished off his drink then sat the glass down. "Would you like to dance then?"

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:16 am

She shrugged. "Sure, why not. Let's see how we do..."

She stands up and begins walking towards the dance floor

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:19 am

He stood up and followed after her. Once they found a nice spot he paused for a moment, just listening to the music. His head bobbed up and down, getting used to the beat before he finally started dancing. He wasn't really that bad, at least he kept the rhythm.

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:22 am

Ayami, dancing with Zach, mused that this was the exact opposite of Cal. Cal was all mechanics, no heart. Zach is all heart...no mechanics.

Ah, well.

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:31 am

Zach for lack of a better term, felt pretty lame dancing. He smiled however, still kinda embarrassed but having fun at least. Must be something better I could try.. He thought, thinking of some sort of movie or some dance from school he could draw something from. Finally, he thought of something.

Zach's movement changed up and had some hip-hop-ish flare too them all of a sudden. His body rolling, kicking, or hopping to the to the beat of the music, only picking moves that seemed like they'd work with the song.

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:35 am

Ayami just stopped cold on the dance floor. After a moment, she moved her hand to cover her mouth, as she despratley tried to keep from bursting out into laughter.

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:36 am

Seeing her reaction, Zach stopped. There was a grin on his face though and he started to laugh. "Eh..that was a mess wasn't it? To be fair..I was copying some stuff I saw off some movie. Thought it'd be fun to try."

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:38 am

"No, no, it was certainly....enthusiastic." Ayumi said, almost successfuly surpressing a giggle.

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:40 am

"Enthusiastic? That's a nice word to describe it." He smirked. "I guess I should tone it down a notch before I mentally scar you further?", he asked playfully.

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:42 am

"No, no, don't worry about it. It's not exactly my style, though."

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:45 am

He chuckled. "Okay. Okay." He started to dance again but was a lot more tame until the song ended. "Wasn't my style either. Not sure what mines would be." I won't pick stuff from You got Served again. Silly TBS specials..

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:46 am

"I'm afraid that you've worn me out, Zach-san. It was a lot of fun though, thank you" she said, returning to her stool.

by **Zachary Flint** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 8:47 am

"I think I wore myself out. Thanks for dancing with me." He said, moving back to his stool as well and asking for a glass of water from the barkeep.

by **Ayami Morita** » Thu Mar 26, 2009 10:57 pm

"Any time" Ayami said, and then, after a pause, gave him a quick peck on the cheek.

She stood up, and started walking back towards where the others where dancing.

Bear, meanwhile, was still happily dancing with Juma, moving from fast to slow to swing to boogie and back again.

"Fancy a dance?"

"If you like. I'm not very good, though." Chloe said, walking to the dance floor with Simon

by **Simon Kipling** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 4:26 pm

Simon gave Chloe a reassuring smile. "Me either. As your people say, I'm rubbish." He did he best, thankfully the song had a slow enough beat that he didn't have to be outlandish, but wasn't so slow that it needed to be a slow dance.

"But we can't let your friends hog the spotlight."

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 12:53 am

"I love this song." Chloe said, smiling as she danced, not well, but not nearly as badly as she implied.

by **Simon Kipling** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 9:19 pm

Simon laughed and gave Chloe a little spin. "You lied to me. You're a great dancer."

by **Chloe Grant** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 11:37 pm

"Thank you." Chloe said, moving a little closer to Simon.

by **Simon Kipling** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 1:07 am

Simon's tail coiled around Chloe's waist as she moved closer, giving her midsection a gentle squeeze like a python.

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 1:15 am

Chloe blushed a little as Simon's tail wrapped around her "You dance very well too."

by **Simon Kipling** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 2:35 pm

"Aww thanks. It was actually kind of hard for me to learn. Weird feet will do that for you."

by **Chloe Grant** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 9:54 pm

"I suppose it would." Chloe replied.

by **Simon Kipling** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 6:47 pm

Simon kicked himself mentally. "Sorry. I make it sound like I'm a real sob case."

by **Chloe Grant** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 6:50 pm

"Not really." Chloe said, putting her arms around his neck "I think its cool that you kept at it."

by **Simon Kipling** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 6:58 pm

Simon's cheeks flushed a little bit, slowing down and swaying a little more as Chloe wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Well it's one of those essential skills. A guy's gotta know how to dance, how to cook, how to open a pickle jar, how to tell a girl she's got pretty eyes...."

by **Chloe Grant** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 7:14 pm

"Of course." Chloe said, smiling "When do I get to test out the pickle jar opening?"

by **Simon Kipling** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 7:32 pm

"Well that depends" Simon replied. "Do you have one?"
