...make that three. She looks down, frowning.]

[Stepping on your feet. Forever.

He knows he could be a great dancer if he didn't get so nervous about doing it wrong. He's good at fighting, after all, and that's kind of like dancing, right? But he can, like, smell your shampoo from here, and it's really distracting.]

Princes knew how to throw parties. How exactly each of them were there was an issue for another day; Jim had connections just about everywhere across the world and the prince had made a very specific point of giving him an invitation hand delivered by one of his personal guard. Hardly a first, but it wasn't his style to turn his nose up at a ball that meant for mingling with the right sort of crowd.

He arrived that night with all the bells and whistles; Alexander McQueen suit and tie, custom made Italian leather shoes, cuff links and tie pin all in place. He wore the fox accents tonight, despite his need to not quite play the role; tonight was a night to make possible friends and assess the atmo, not stalk and prey on possible victims. He welcomed the change of pace to be sure, but this wasn't a den filled with the ordinary sort of people he dealt with for the most part in London. No, this was a den full of would-be wolves and he was a fox in their midst; best to hide behind a more humble decorum if he's to survive the night without new foes trailing at his heels.

The was quite the buzz about the arrival of one Miss Irene Adler. She was a thing of legend among the middle eastern dignitaries he mingled with for the first portion of the night, though many of them were put off by approaching her and refused to make the first move. But whispers and secrets told the story of a woman much more clever than the men fawning over her classic beauty (which he appreciated thoroughly to be sure) so he feigned the devouring of liquid courage (he'd never need it to approach anyone) and approached the fabled Woman with an outstretched arm.

"Would you do me the honor, Miss Adler."

I'm wearing deodorant this time. So, you know, we've got that.

[madannie]

[Annie has discovered that she actually quite likes the men and women who seem to be from an age before hers -- they're more polite, and less likely to openly mock her for being a little strange.

This is, one assumes, how they ended up dancing -- her hands are very hesitant and she lets him guide, but it's rather nice, really.]

This is nothing like one of the Capitol's balls.

[And she sounds utterly pleased about that.]

[she doesn't know how she was talked into wearing those heels again, but somehow she's wearing them and she just knows something will go wrong.

it's already gone wrong, you're with robb stark. it's wryly thought because honestly he just had to be there with glass shards on his head and shattering the peaceful life of an ordinary nurse and now she was here and--

and you like it. fuck.

but jeyne westerling doesn't say these sort of things unless particularly angry or in a place not so public as this (or drunk) and so instead she has a smile on her face and pink cheeks; speaking quickly: ]

There's a very large possibility of me stepping on your toes. Or tripping. [she says this with a straight face as she cracks a smile. she's not nervous. not really. of course not.

and how did this all happen anyway? nursing was supposed to be safe!]

I think we've earned this.

[Do they NOT teach you to waltz in Westeros? Every single Armstrong has this down to a science, and you better figure out something to do because here she comes...]

[farflunghope]

[soveryhuman]

[ You'd think after remembering he's technically over 1900 years old, a man would have the wisdom to realize that when the Doctor said he would be dancing with everybody at the reception, he meant everybody. These are the lessons Rory is still learning, though, so it's surprising when Amy pushes him out towards the open floor area and this is the result.

Which could be worse, he guesses. Worse things have happened than dancing with a time traveling alien. ]

May I have this dance?

[A quiet request, and one outstretched hand. Please take it, Olivier, it's very likely the last song playing tonight, and consequently the last dance. He's even being upfront about it.]
