[ The music has switched from the smooth 3/3 time signature of the waltz to a livelier 4/4, the upbeat tempo perfect for the dance she has in mind. She takes the lead without hesitation, using her body to guide him, slight presses of her hands or spoken instructions when touch alone isn’t enough.
The dance is a rollicking thing, their arms around one another a little more thoroughly than Seteth would approve of as they spin together around the dance floor. She twirls once, twice, thrice under his arm, laughing with giddy pleasure at the sight of scandalized nobles watching them down their noses.
By the time the music ends, they’ll have made a full circuit of the dance floor, wildly careening at times past the couples whose dances were more sedate. Dorothea’s cheeks are flushed, her laughter musical as they wind to a stop. She gives an appropriately grandiose curtsy, eyes twinkling. ]
Thank you for the dance. That’s the most fun I’ve had in ages.
