"Aww, but that would be the really fun part!" Protested Shadiya with a laugh. She could imagine Dex's reactions every time she would let out a cry or how she could pout in order to get pampered for her injury. I'm horrible. Needless to say the smirk on her face revealed a few of those thoughts that flickered through her mind, "Alright then. I'll promise to behave as long as you treat me right~"
"Oh you'll be fine." She took a few steps backwards, "Just try to follow the movement of my feet and loosen those shoulders some more. You aren't a stick, Dexurn, be more alive. Just let your body do what it wants~" She rolled her shoulders teasingly before taking a few more steps in the sands. Back and forth then sideways...it was reminiscent of the dances she had seen a long time ago between couples. She hadn't had a dance partner in a while, but she remembered the dances clearly. Mostly though it was just fun and playful steps that she attempted to use with Dex. Nothing too fancy or fast paced. Just something to get him to move a bit, "Use those hips a bit~" Teasingly she wiggled her own with a laugh.

Dex shook his head, knowing there was more truth to her words than was proper! "Of course I will." As if he could ever even think of treating her otherwise.
Brow rising, he chuckled and shrugged. "But I'm trying to do what my body doesn't want to." He did try to follow Shade's directions. Looser, relaxed, easy... minimal on all counts. He was always about a half step behind, watching Shade's feet like a hawk. Of course, being overly careful was asking for trouble. On a back step, his foot caught his opposite ankle. He tried to let go of Shade's hands as he stumbled backward a few steps before flopping onto his back, face dark with embarrassment. That went as well as expected...

"I think you're just thinking too much about it. You have to just loosen up and enjoy life a bit~" Shadiya grinned, "Leaving yourself behind is the first step to entering the realm of dance." When she danced everyone else disappeared and she became a burning flame playing with the winds. Though if she did dance around her friend then he would be the one to pull her back to reality...
Her fingers slipped from Dex's hands as he fell backwards. Holding back her laugh, the girl raced forward to squat before him with her hands out to help him back up. "I think it's a bit early for you to be trying to do back flips, Dex." Her gaze glimmered with amusement, "Are you alright?" Perhaps she had gone a bit quickly...was he blushing? That was rather adorable, "Come on big guy, no harm done. Everyone has those moments." She paused before finally laughing, "You should have seen how many tumbles I took when I began! If you want I can show you some examples."

Loosen up... Ugh. He looked up at Shade with a flat expression for a long moment before he let himself laugh. "Yeah, I'm okay. Would take more than that to do anything to me." He sat up and reached to brush the sand from his back. Blinking, he laughed again and shook his head. "I tumble around well enough without doing it on purpose," he said playfully.
Standing, he made the rather brave move of holding his arms out. "Try again?"

Shadiya grinned, "Then you're already on your way to becoming a pro tumbler." She winked playfully before grabbing his arms and helping him up, "Of course. Dex, you know I could dance until the moon comes out~ I just hope I don't wear you down."
She wiggled her eyebrows, "I suppose this could also be endurance training for you...hold on can you try this?" Letting go of his arms the girl took a few steps before twisting into the air with a few spins, "That okay?" She smiled before shaking her head and reaching out for his hands again, "I think we'll just keep on the ground while we dance. I can even do slower dances with you, but we'd have to move closer together." She moved his hand to her waist and took a step closer so that they were only a breath apart, "Just like this....at least that's what I remember." It had been a stiff dance she had seen Obans do, but the Matori had made it lively by twisting and turning with each other. She even saw someone swing their partner around by the waist before...now that would be fun to try! Not today of course. She didn't want to scare Dex off right away.
Smiling towards her friend Shadiya swung out her foot and began to led, "In three days will you be ready to leave? Just let me know and I'll be prepared." She carefully took a few more steps while humming a melody under her breath, "But that's something to think about in a bit. Let's just dance for now~"
It was nice to be able to spend time like this with Dexurn and she was also excited to know that now they would be spending many more moments like this together~

"I'll let you know if you do," he replied with a smirk. Watching Shade spin in the air, he was glad to hear her turn down her own idea. Jumping like that, his legs would end up in a knot!
His amusement quickly shifted to a more bashful air as Shade tucked herself closer. That was right... He'd seen people dance like this at many of his ex-master's parties. Still, to be the one dancing now... "We can do three days," he murmured, trying hard to not trip now that he was holding Shade closer. His steps remained stiff and ungainly, only slowly relaxing a little. Dancing wasn't his favorite, but, for Shade... he could enjoy it a little.
