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.

Is that why my incisors are almost unnaturally sharp?

[adrii]

I would have to verify the veracity of your incisors to know.

[loculus]

I don't believe that.

[adrii]

That I would need proof before coming to a conclusion? Please, Domingo. I am a man of science.

[loculus]

Can you not toss holy water at me or something.

[adrii]

And risk burning myself? Safety first.

[loculus]

Then you'll have to take my word for it.

[adrii]

I suppose.

[loculus]

Why won't you dance with me, Adrían?

[adrii]

I have my reasons.

[loculus]

Pendejada.

Dom.

[adrii]

I have no interest in adding to Nikola's jealousy, otherwise I would dance with you.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

I didn't realize your daughter invited the ship to a tango lesson.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

Salsa isn't for the faint of heart if you're doing it correctly, but I suspect it would take very little to set off Nikola's jealousy.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

He has three days to reacclimate. He knows I've no interest in you.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

One dance. And, sadly, logic has no bearing on what we feel, Domingo.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

I thought you were a man of science.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

I am. Nikola is not. Nikola is a man of the stage and wearing his heart on his sleeve.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

He's a man with a big capacity for big feelings and a bigger heart, whether or not it's featured on his outfit of the day.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

Which is why I can't tolerate him being hurt or lead on.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

Then why would you One would hope not.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

So then why haven't you It really is the bare minimum.

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

Yes, I recall this episode of Sesame Street.

Adri/Dom.

[adrii]

Do you?

Adri/Dom.

[loculus]

You may make your point whenever you're ready.
