Dance. Hmmm. I'll be going with Reborn, but...

I didn't realize that events like these were so hated nowadays...I'm excited...

How do I know when I've succeeded as a sister? Is there something wrong with me?

I think most of them are just shy and/or awkward. No biggie. ...I just have bad memories of them, and I've been to one too many.

I've... got nothing, but we're in the same boat. Kyouya, you know. I get this feeling I've failed miserably. But your brother, he's -- a complicated one. He'll come around.

That's unfortunate. They need to relax and learn to enjoy these things more. ...but I can see why you wouldn't like reminiscing over dances.

But your relationship with Hibari...I mean, you're his tutor. Yours is a bond that doesn't have to exist, but yet the two of you seem to get along well enough. If you had really failed, I'm sure he would try much, much harder to get away from you.

But Hayato...we're tied by blood, whether he likes it or not. I'm supposed to be there for him; I'm supposed to support him. And I want to, but he won't let me in. I know we aren't close, and that I wasn't around for a good five years of his life, but I want to fix that.

...I'm sorry. You probably didn't want to hear all that. Oh, and if it's any consolation, I think you did quite well with Hibari.

I'd actually say dances like these are acquired tastes. ...Sadly, doesn't seem like I ever learned to enjoy them.

..Thanks. It means a lot hearing it from an outside perspective -- but it seems like lately all that effort's being shot down to Hell. Probably because he has his own agenda now, what with your brother and all. But it's like you can feel the walls rising, very very slowly.

Smoki -- Gokudera is really a special case, huh. Haha, I don't think you have to worry -- in many respects, he treats you the same as he treats Kyouya. Really. It seems like -- the more opportunities you give him to open up... eventually... it'll happen. You know? That's just how it seems to me, but it's something. Don't be discouraged.

Don't be ridiculous! I don't mind at all. I think you're doing quite well with Gokudera. He just needs a little time. *smile*

But aren't ordinary dances a little too boring?

You're welcome. I guess we just have to keep toiling. Maybe it'll pay off someday. Um, "agenda" is kind of a suspicious word.

It doesn't stop at "special". I don't really know how Hayato treats Hibari. Brat won't talk to me. I mean, I could always watch the videos, but that makes me feel...creepy, to say the least.

Thanks. But, feh, if I give him some time, he'll probably end up dying of lung cancer, and then where would I be?

I sure don't hate them ♥ Save a dance for me?~

...There's nothing wrong with Hayato. So there's nothing wrong you.

[lovely_scorpion]

You wouldn't. Sure, I'll dance with you if you dance with a member of the Varia. ♥

Are you sure there's nothing wrong with him? I mean, you helped raise him...

[doctor_shamal]

...but honey, they're all men!

I didn't--!! ...Well, he has his issues, but everyone does and they're completely solvable.

[lovely_scorpion]

Oh? Well, I've heard from a pretty dubious source that the Varia's "Lussuria" is quite lovely. Probably very very feminine. Close enough, right?

Right, right. You have a point. Maybe he just needs some ice cream. That seems to solve lots of problems.
