"Oh, I do have a few aces up my sleeve. For once, I am a decent dancer, and I have only gotten better since I have started taking lessons from the best.

Actually... Instead of telling you about that, maybe I should be showing it? Do you like dancing yourself Asahina-sama? Would you be interested in visiting the local club for a demonstration?"

She smiled broadly at that. "Oh I do indeed quite enjoy dancing. I am hardly what one would label 'the best', but I make up for it in passion for it. If you are asking if I would join you for dancing at the club some evening Hida-san, you only need ask me once for a yes."

"Then it's a date!

Well, a date without a date. I'm swarming in obligations in the next days, and I'm sure you are too. Should we exchange coordinates so we can schedule it more easily later?"

Akemi reached for her communicator, ready to share her number.

"I'm honestly surprised the Phoenix haven't announced an official dancing event yet. That would have seemed quite in theme for a miai. As opposed to the Hida roulette ikebana that I heard happened yesterday while I was taking my otori for a walk."

"Oh, do give them time. I'm certain they'll come around before the end." Fusako merely glanced at the pad before bringing out her own densai, entering the info from memory easily. She lifted up the pad and took a quick profile pic with a small smirk.

"There, all added. I'll send you my own with a message later Hida-san."

"Perfect.

Then, unless you've got other subjects you want to talk or ask about, I guess this is goodbye for now, and see you soon on the dance floor?"

"I could talk all night, but it does seem a fine point to end things for now, hai," she said finishing her cup of tea and standing up. "Get in touch when you wish to dance Hida-san, and I will contact you back if that works for me."

With that, and a bow accompanied by a coy smile, Fusako took her exit.
