( he pulls his head up as he tugs off one boot, mouth opening: then hesitating. )
Pair dancing isn't my strong point.
( it comes across sounding like a confession. it is one. he's reserved, he screws up in the give and take, he's too commandeering as a lead, he's too fractious as a follow. Yuri's managed better periods, but it's been actually worse since he moved to Recolle. )
[ . . . . a surprise. In truth, Anya might've had a suspicion - but they haven't been friends for long. Maybe Yuri didn't want to pair dance with anyone who wasn't a friend if he didn't have to. And Anya would always be swept up in a new dance with Dave anyway.... but she looks amused - and excited.]
Something that I can teach Yuratchka? Wow!
[and she giggles even as she tilts her head and smiles]
You don't have to if you don't want to - I can ask Davenka - but it's my favorite. And ah... after the pageant, I had a hallucinomemory too. Not as new as Yuratchka's... but Anya saw a stage! [and because she's Extra, she'll hop onto an empty space on another bench nearby to elevate herself like she saw in her memory, mimicking the ending pose she saw in her head, smiling bright as the moon] And bright lights. Singing, dancing - with someone important to me.
That feeling... Doki doki! I want to feel it again. That is why I ask.
[it's a new feeling to her - to care this strongly about something that isn't the stars, but well... she plans to eventually master this too, you know?]
( he turns his face her way to show he's paying attention even as she's hopping on benches and his fingers are working at laces. he snorts, a little amused in spite of himself. part of him is prepared to say no... and probably would have, if doki doki hadn't followed her saying what she really loved in that recollection was the performance. )
Davenka's still the better option, but okay. I'll try.
( for whatever it is that she gets out of it, and for, not so selflessly, his own general improvement as well. )
Which is why Anya's absolutely ecstatic as she shifts to turn back to him, clapping her hands together.]
Yay! Then it will be fun! And we will learn new things - and...!
[she's ready to keep going, she really is - when her phone buzzes in her pocket? oh. she makes a second noise of delight, hopping down from the bench almost immediately]
Mama's shift got changed. She's going home - goodbye, Yuratchka, bye bye! Thank you, proud of you, love you!
[and there it is
anya being a mama's girl above all else kicking in as she's legitimately sprinting right back out the doors of the stardust]
