@eavera:
thank you, (/and she blushes, because compliments are her main source of validation and energy) — (/confusion floods expressive features before she lights up with a laugh, understanding setting in) no, it’s fine, he’s talking to the team or something, anyway. (/pleased with the outcome of stepping outside of her will-focused bubble, vera smiles. she’s heard so much about kay from kaya and it all starts to click together as she talks to him) are you having fun? (/curious, concerned, genuine care for his emotions. they step into place on the dance floor, and vera is truly worried about kay’s experience of the night)
( ‵ Kay waits for an answer, assumes it’s a ‘yes’ because he knows a little bit about Vera from Kaya. He’s a gentleman and he swiftly takes her hand to guide her to the dance floor, careful not to step on her dress or anything that concerns ruining the night ) yes, of course ( ‵ he answers, not entirely sure what fun means but he is happy ) how about you? ( ‵ he returns the genuine favor, settling his hands on her hips almost mechanically, hoping she doesn’t mind )
