It's never been her style, all girly and feminine, but it's too late to go back and change now. Maybe, after a little dancing and food and fun, she'll just forget she's even wearing it.]
Reply
Which doesn't help her nerves any.]
Y-You're not any more relaxed than I am! [She sounds almost like a pouting child, but after a couple seconds of trying not to stumble she lets out a sigh.] I'm not very good at it, sorry...
Reply
He doesn't really meets gazes because some people were disconcerted by his eye colour, but...if stopped bothering AVALANCHE a long time ago, right?
Her remark makes him blink. ] Maye a little more. [ He easily moves so that she doesn't step on him. ] It's fine.
Just... [ It wasn't as if her weight is enough to break his toe. ] enjoy yourself.
...
[ Fail advice is fail. ]
Reply
Yeah, it's just... [His advice may be full of fail, but her aggravation at his inability is actually helping her relax and forget about being nervous.] Alright.
[She goes quiet for a second, thinking back on talking to Cloud before -- and then] Hey, are you and your partner dating now? [WAIT that sounds weird!] I mean, 'cause it just looks like a lot of them get all close and I was just curious it's fine if you don't answer I was just asking to think about something else like you said! [And take a deeeep breath because that was all in one.]
Reply
[ Sorry, he knows he's no good at this.
But at least she seems preoccupied by something else.
...
What, what?
He almost stops moving. ] Dating? Who said...anything about dating? [ Err, no, they haven't been. Not in the least bit.
He doesn't think he's capable of dating ever since his last...dating attempts had gone so awry. ]
No, we are not. [ His brow furrows. ] Where did you...hear that notion?
Reply
I didn't! [In other words, her imagination can get away with quite a lot and it seems his romantic life is part of her wild musings when there's nothing left keeping her preoccupied.
Unsettling, isn't it? She doesn't get it either.]
I was just wondering! And Cloud was asking if you were coming or if I was asking you to come here and... [Oh, wait! No, the answer was obvious!] So this is Cloud's fault!
Reply
...
Cloud's fault? Did he imply something?
Reply
Cloud's always saying stupid things, just forget it... [And she's right back to pouting, muscles tense again as she stares hard at his chest rather than meeting his eyes.
It's too embarrassing to look directly at him.]
Reply
I have a right to know what he said, yes? [ ... ] You're hiding something.
Reply
It's no big deal, he just makes fun of me so you don't have to worry about what he says.
Reply
Hn.
I'll take your word...I suppose.
Reply
Alright, and then we can pretend this never happened.
[After she's recovered from that embarrassment she can finally look him in the eye again.]
You're still too tall...! [Yes, that is Yuffie whining as she moves closer to readjust her hand on his shoulder.] Okay, this would be so much easier if I had stilts.
Reply
Very well.
[ He blinks and looks away, then slowly glances back. ]
Do you want me to start apologising for my height? [ It's not as if he can shrink. ] ...I doubt you can dance like that, Yuffie.
Reply
What, it's not like you can't just pick me up and swing me around or something. It's easier.
Reply
...
What?
[ Did she actually suggest that? ]
Reply
Just hold on. [And that's the only warning he gets before she hops up and her arms wrap around his neck, allowing herself to just hang from him with a goofy smile on her lips.]
See? So much easier.
