The room was wide, open and clean. Another student was to be coming in and Tizzy had deemed he needed to learn something "classy". Dancing had been decided on, but instead of waltzes, she had decided more to teach things like the Tango or the Tarantella. Though that would depend highly on how cooperative her student was. And given the information on Cody, that wasn't to be likely.

The blue haired android relaxed in her classroom, awaiting the boy's arrival. Today was going to be 'interesting' by human standards, to say the least.

Cody sighed as he trudged down the hallway, a nice-sized bruise on his stomach and arm from his "melee" class with Ary. Why she had felt it necessary to beat the crap out of him, he wasn't sure. But, Ary was Ary and there was no changing her views on things. At least she hadn't felt it was needed to accompany him into the Facility for his class of sorts.

He entered the room slowly, looking at the odd teacher in the corner. "You my teacher?" he asked irritably, moving into the room after deeming it safe and free of a certain white haired demon that he had to LIVE with.

Tizzy nodded curtly. "I am Tizzy. You would be Cody then, I take it." she replied, though it wasn't really a question. "I shall be teaching you to dance today. It should not be such a strain on you after your last class at this facility, I am told."

Cody nodded as she questioned his name, shuffling closer only to pause mid-step at hearing what he was going to learn to do. He was going to learn how to... to dance?! "Wha? Dance?" he asked, a little surprised it hadn't been something else. It didn't even occur to him that she had mentioned something about his previous butt-kicking session with Ary, or that the facility would record such a thing...

"Yes. Dance." Tizzy agreed with a nod. "You will be learning to tango, to be precise." the android believed this would be of use to him. Why wasn't really an issue, it just would be. "if you would prefer some other kind, I can change to that, though I think a tango would suit you."

Cody merely shook his head. "Oh... I mean... I'm fine with the tango. Just a bit surprised is all," he replied after relaxing a bit. Learning the tango seemed useful enough if Ary was indeed going through with her whole 'Valentine Ball' idea. He still couldn't figure out why she wanted to do it, or how she would get the gold for it.

Tizzy nodded, heading over towards the board to write a bit on it. "These are the steps of a tango. They follow a certain beat of the music." she explained, writing what types of steps go with what beats. "Please try to remember this. I will lead the first dance and then you will try to lead the next ones."

Cody nodded vaguely, watching as she wrote on the board and studying it intensely. He had one shot, he had to get it right least he was made fun of later. He had never attempted to dance before and only had the vaguest ideas of what the Tango even was. All the same, he tried to imprint the various things she wrote into his memory only for his face to pink at what she said next.

"Wait... I'm-never mind. I'm ready," Cody muttered after a few moments. He suddenly hoped he could get it down well the first time. Somehow, dancing the tango with his teacher seemed kind of awkward.

Tizzy stepped forward and held out her hands, moving his hands into the proper positions. As she'd be unable to turn on the music suitably, she merely looked at it to activate the remote feature on the player and soon enough began to show Cody the steps, expecting him to follow along.

After once through the dance, she paused the song. "Your turn." she stated, switching hand positions with him.

Cody couldn't help the slight blush that formed on his face as me went through the motions of the dance, stumbling occasionally but never too badly. "Uhm... O-ok," he muttered, changing the position of his hands and taking lead like she had when the music restarted. He stumbled less, but was far from perfect. Oh well, it was a good start right?

Having been programmed to praise satisfactory performance, she nodded. "Very well done. We will try again and soon enough you should be acceptably good at the dance." she assured him. This meant he'd be able to leave soon.

Cody nodded, not trusting himself to speak. Her words calmed him a bit, glad he wasn't totally screwing up in front of her. "Alright..." he muttered, also finding the prospect of leaving as being really nice. The facility always put him on edge...

They went through a few more dances till the boy had the hang of it before Tizzy stopped. "All right. You have done well. You may leave now." she stated calmly, going to turn off the music and close up things she'd set up.
