While I know there are many more pressing matters at hand, there's been a distinct problem I've noticed onboard in the most recent karaoke nights.  I won’t name names, but I have noticed a lack of rhythm that can be rectified with a little practice. Luckily, I am here to help, and there is no singing required.

This Friday, I'll be hosting a group salsa class in the community room.   You don't need to have danced before; all prior skills you need are the ability to count to eight and how to stand up straight.

All are welcome, though anyone who is judgmental towards others just learning will be asked to leave.  I don't have patience for that, and it's supposed to be fun.

See you Friday at seven.  Wear comfortable shoes.

[…] Are you sure.
She doesn’t know me.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i told her a little about you. [...] she'll think you're cool.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

What Sounds smarter than you already.
What does she like.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i mean she's a lot smarter than me

she likes making things. projects and crafts and stuff. and she likes instruments and music. [...] irina's teaching her russian. i always feel a little bad we can't send her to a real school. i think she'd be good at it.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

I bet she would. But a life here is better than most schools out there, anymore.
[...] She sounds cool, too. I could pull together a craft kit or something. For a present.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

yeah, that's true. what was high school like under the veil?

you could also help me and lilah keep an eye out for stuff while we're on the ground.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

What do you think. It was quiet. I probably learned shit. I got straight A's.

I could.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

did you have prom?

if you want to. casper already has a big gift taken care of anyway so no pressure.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

Yeah. But I skipped to go to a party, which was just as tame.

Can't show up empty-handed to a birthday party. I'll look. What are you getting her.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

that's adorable. rebelling even when veiled.

[...] the big gift is from all of us. plus whatever i can find and the cake.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

Shut up.
[...]What were you like in school.

You should find something to be just from you.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i was popular, but in more of a student government way than a quarterback kind of way.

i guess some pressure on me, then.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

Holy shit were you class vice president.

You'll be fine. Just make sure it's good.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i was the sophomore class representative. and also the president of the birdwatching club, but i founded that one.

in other words: some pressure

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

Imagining you the leader of so many nerdy binocular kids. Tracks.

Life's no fun without a little.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i had an entire telescope, actually.

that's very true. you nervous?

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

A telescope for birds?

No. Just excited to be on the move again. Are you nervous.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

nah. that was for stargazing.

not really. sounds like it should be pretty quiet.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

And you were popular.

Just jinxed it. Sending all the bears your way.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

i was. but i understand why you're skeptical.

well i also crave excitement so that's fine.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

I hated all the popular kids. [...] Well. As much as I could.

Then I can't wait to watch that fight.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

yeah? how would you have hated me in high school?

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

I don't know. Maybe you could've been spared. For atypical popularity. I like stars.

Apollo/Sloane.

[agyieus]

you would've liked the desert. the sky is crazy there when the moon's dark. [...] it was always a little harder to enjoy it after the fall, though.

Apollo/Sloane.

[foundlostfound]

Knowing what else was up there?
