[She's always adored dancing. It doesn't matter what kind; as long as there's music, she'll dance to it.

But this-- this is something else entirely. Jackie sighs happily in Gerry's arms, nuzzling against her shoulder.]

HEY YOU

[adifferentbreed]

[Gerry, on the other hand, never had a lot of dancing in her life and didn't see too much need for it. But Jackie is sighing and nuzzling and maybe it isn't the worst thing. Even if she is just swaying ridiculously.]

You having a good time?

HEY GIRL

[allucinator]

Mmhmm.

[She grins up at her.]

I ain't done this in forever. Thank you.

[They'd even shoplifted a new dress for Jackie beforehand, short and yellow and perfectly suited to the hot summer night.]

[adifferentbreed]

[Now that had been fun. Gerry technically had enough stolen money that she could've just bought the dress. The alternative was both more satisfying and sexy.]

You don't gotta thank me. Y'made me do it.

[allucinator]

Yeah, but still.

[She grins again before settling down, nosing against her lightly.]

Don't say I owe you, though.

[socius]

[Guess who's lurking about in your lair when you get back, pipsqueak? She's been nosy, too. Or helpful, considering there's now a gramophone in the far corner, wafting up a pretty little tune that just has to be from the 50's. Original vinyl, too.]

[He almost didn't go back. After the circumstances of his second departure from the Port, he didn't really trust his old haunts. What if they were found? But something told him to go and when he saw her, he was glad he did.

Still, he hovered at the edge of the cave, not entering yet.]

Never pegged you as a jazz type. But you always surprised me.

[socius]

[She just kind of .. knew he'd come back. Eventually. It wasn't like she was going to age just sitting around waiting. Or swaying in this case, just a little, to the music.]

Not usually. Some songs are nice, though.
