five. spam & video. thank you for dancing 'til the end

spam } throughout lost in translation

[Unlike during some floods, Vin isn't hiding this time - not even close. She's fascinated by the varied languages she's hearing and is scouring the ship to hear as much as possible in the time she has. Admittedly she spends a greater proportion of her time above deck, in the gardens, and in the CES than anywhere else, but the only place she doesn't visit once is Zero. Everywhere else, she's watching and listening and occasionally muttering quietly in the language of Scadriel.]

video } public

[This is the Public Address voice/face, in which Vin is about 10% more social adept than at other times. There's eye contact happening, and that's pretty much all you can ask.]

Mark's gone, you know that, but before he left he . . . mentioned dancing. Dancing lessons, specifically. We talked for a while, and I still want to do them. There's only so much I can teach, because there's only so much I know, but I can start and other people can - teach other things. Later.

I'll be on deck later this afternoon, unless there's a better space.

[And what was the other thing.]

Wear comfortable clothes.

spam } deck

[Vin is, in fact, on deck, starting at around four in the afternoon, and even if nobody shows up she will at least be practicing various calisthenic-type exercises she learned from Ham. Once a small group gathers, she'll demonstrate a few simple steps - brusquely but effectively - of very old-fashioned ballroom-ish dancing. It's pretty clear she's not the best in the world at this teaching crap, but she's an excellent dancer (in part, but not whole, because of Mistborn cheating).]


( ooc; feel free to use the second spam as a somewhat-mingly thing!! i am cool with whatever, threadjack all over the place, do your thing, xoxo )

[ Megamind appears on deck eventually. He's dressed remarkably well - Edward wore off on him, some; slacks, black sweater vest over a blue button down shirt. Sure, the leather belt still has spikes on it, so it's still Megamind, but he's there all the same. ]

[ Someone is fighting the December blues pretty fiercely, and he's been wrapped up in the consturction of Chris's legs that he knows he needs to see someone who isn't His dog, his inmate, the Emperor, or Chris himself. ]

Of course I can move in them.

[Ben always wears comfortable clothes. He's also, due to the weather, wearing one of his jackets; and due to the occasion, he's chosen the nicer tailored one - still military flavored, but with interesting accents and more pockets than strictly necessary - that Aya gave him last year.

And this is quite a change from last year.

He shows up looking curious and alert, not quite certain that he wants anything to do with this, but willing.

[He notices, of course; in turn he doesn't put as much effort into the small habits he's learned that make other people more comfortable in his presence. He doesn't look away more often, doesn't let his shoulders slouch or his expression tend more towards reserved than neutral. Doesn't do anything about the intent narrowing of his eyes or worry about the fact that he doesn't smile, doesn't frown, doesn't anything even a fraction of the amount other people do.

He cocks his head, too, warming slightly at the mirrored motions, peering intently at her bow without coming much closer.
]

I remember when Mark Lilly asked about dancing before. I was interested but I still have never done anything of the sort, ma'am.

[Which is, when you're Ben, the equivalent of a replying bow. Probably.]

[Iris said she was coming dancing, and here she is. She's wearing a short scarlet-and-black dress with the sort of skirt that flips and twirls nicely when the wearer does, and black fishnet stockings because Iris is classy like that.

She's a good dancer, though; she's fit and agile and flexible, and she has a better-than-human knack for watching a set of movements and reproducing them.]


...What kind of frocks did you wear for these, Vin love?

[Iris listens when criticised, her head tilted attentively like Marsh's cockatiel, and is happy to execute the same step over and over till she has it perfect.

Vin's remark on dresses evokes a broad grin, and she hitches her own skirt up to show the slender thigh holster with her staser.]


I always 'ave at least one bottomless pocket so I can get to it. I once got attacked at a dance by a flipping weretiger.

...well, it was at dinner, but same difference. Once we've got this one down shall we Charleston?

[Of course, Kelsier is here. Why wouldn't he be here? He's lounging in a higher up spot to watch her teach. That's what really interests him. Never having seen what she did after he was gone... this is a little like watching her grow up all over again.]

[Eventually he jumps down.] Remember when you hated dresses?

[He grins.] Just an observation.

[He extends a hand.] Show me how to dance. [Of course, he already knows how but he's never really seen Vin do it outside of watching from the windows at a Ball or two. And of course, practice sessions with Sazed.]

You're the generous dance coach, I take it.

[She's not much of a dancer (her skills lately run more toward combat) but any opportunity to stretch her legs on this flying fish bowl is a good thing.]

Well, I can teach you some gymnastics tricks in return. Close, right?

I'd love to!

[And she's on the deck with a notepad of all things, as if there's going to be a lecture. Chromie mimics both the exercises and the dance, and although she's not particularly graceful or agile, she's a very determined learner.]
