"Oh!" Yugi looks at Mikoto. "You don't need a partner! Sometimes the most fun you can have a dance is with friends! And dancing can be anything! I really want you to be able to be there, Mikoto."
"I really hope the council and I can figure out how to save it."
Yugi scribbles down some notes.

"Nonsense. I wouldn't miss this, you need not worry." Mikoto nods affirmatively.
"I just happen to be quite nervous. There seems to be a lot of prep I'll need to do beforehand..."
"But that's fine! I don NOT back down from challenges, you hear? I will dance like nobody has danced before!"
Mikoto raises a fist in the air, but it looks kinda weird given how long their coat sleeves are.

"I'll provide energizing musical accompaniment for the dance, you can be sure of that." Korrigan gives a thumbs up to the group.

"I don't want to take away from your studies!" Yugi says, assured that everyone is still busy with studying all the time. "But... If you want to skip on your studies to learn something to impress us, well, that would be awesome!" She looks at Korrigan, "Oh please Mr. Magno, you have no idea how much this means to me! I need you there so badly! Please do your best to make the dance work!" Yugi lets her silkworm drag her up into the air, and starts making an announcement, "Hey everyone! Homecoming will be one week from today! The theme will be flowers! Everyone should pick their outfit based on the flowers from these amazing planets!" She lands and glances at her fellow council members, "That was okay right? I don't want to waste too much time discussing!"

Faye had silently reapproached the group after getting tired of planet hopping with Jack, carrying the jackalope on her arms like a big creepy plushie.
She gave Yugi a strange look, like she didn't understand what she was saying. "You guys... Are still doing the student council thing?"

"Yes!" Yugi grins at Faye. It's not quite happy, per se, more like insistent.
"And all the clubs of course! I even have a plan to revive Explorer's Club with Nico at the helm. In a world with no sun, it's extra important to be organized! Isn't that obvious?"
"If you'd like me to change what the student council is working on, of course I'll listen, but don't you want all of these fun things?" The president gives her kindest look at Faye. "Please consider participating."

“A week?” Nico asks nervously. “That gives us a week to get everything ready, and build up the courage to try and ask someone to dance… T-That’s not that long…”
He seems lost in thought and doesn’t react to the news of the explorer’s club.

Faye, who already struggled with eye contact in general, had to turn her head away from Yugi's insistent gaze. "... I didn't say I wouldn't participate, I just... I dunno. I thought this would end with mister Kameron. I thought he was the one holding things together and by now we would be... Well, I don't know. Forget it."

"A week from now..." Calvin mumbles. "I reckon that could be easy to do. But I don't think I could go in my frock coat becase... yer know."
He gestured to his worn-out frock coat.
"Also, I don't know much about flowers. Somebody might need to help me with the flower, though..." He shrugs.

“Oh god, are we really doing it so soon? I don’t have anything, really. To get ready.” Yves picks at her nails, and stares at them, shuffling in place. “I mean, I wouldn’t wanna miss this dance, with everyone, even if I’m a little nervous about it…” That was an understatement, but, whatever.

Yugi nods fervently at Nico, "Yeah we'll have to work fast! But if you want to relax, don't worry! Plus, we have volunteers for food and deejaying! I can plan a lot of the events and I'll stay up doing decorating." She looks through her notes, "Spirit week might fall by the wayside unless one of you guys can take over running that..." Faye, who already struggled with eye contact in general, had to turn her head away from Yugi's insistent gaze. "... I didn't say I wouldn't participate, I just... I dunno. I thought this would end with mister Kameron. I thought he was the one holding things together and by now we would be... Well, I don't know. Forget it." Her expression shows a bit of concern for Faye as well, "Mr. Fields was really motivated for us, but I am too! I guarantee that I'll get us all the best school life we can!" "Don't tell my mom, but I might have to skip violin lessons," she says deviously.

"What's this about a dance?" Neuron appeared with his familiar randomly.
"Isn't it a bit too early for a ball?" He questioned with concern, not knowing that same question was already asked.

"Please Neuron!" Yugi ignores his question for a second, folding her hands, "I was looking for you! You have to know something about flower arranging, right? Like at least in theory? We need someone who knows flowers so badly!"

Su-Ah was basically vibrating with eagerness in her place.
"If anyone wants a fancy outfit for the dance, please contact me... EXPEDITIOUSLY. Please, I've been dying to make outfits for everyone since the restaurant talk we had on the first day!!!"
"I can also help with the flowers and decorations. Don't worry too much, Yugi! We can definitely make this event happen. It just has to."

"Don't tell my mom, but I might have to skip violin lessons," she says deviously. "But then what happens when-" Faye started, then stopped herself and sighed. "... It sounds fun. It's a fun idea. I'm... Looking forward to it. Thanks, Yugi. I need a partner, right?" “Oh god, are we really doing it so soon? I don’t have anything, really. To get ready.” Yves picks at her nails, and stares at them, shuffling in place. “I mean, I wouldn’t wanna miss this dance, with everyone, even if I’m a little nervous about it…” That was an understatement, but, whatever. She then turned to Yves. "Hey, want to go to the dance together?"

Yugi is already groveling at Neuron's feet, begging him. Was she always so hair-trigger with these types of things? She jumps up and smiles again to Su-Ah, "Gosh, you're so cool! Okay, so we need a plan for it, but fortunately flowers have to go up the same day or else they go bad so we basically don't have a choice but to throw that together at the end of the week!" "A week from now..." Calvin mumbles. "I reckon that could be easy to do. But I don't think I could go in my frock coat becase... yer know." He gestured to his worn-out frock coat. "Also, I don't know much about flowers. Somebody might need to help me with the flower, though..." He shrugs. She also addresses the others, "Oh wow Calvin I can't wait to see what you would wear! Maybe some cactus flowers would be pretty, but I don't know anything about that! I like your personal style in its own way though, and I think it could be worked into your outfit!" “Oh god, are we really doing it so soon? I don’t have anything, really. To get ready.” Yves picks at her nails, and stares at them, shuffling in place. “I mean, I wouldn’t wanna miss this dance, with everyone, even if I’m a little nervous about it…” That was an understatement, but, whatever. "You'll be able to do it, Yves! You're already so pretty and don't worry too much! If you have to cancel a meeting or two with the Yu-Gi-Oh club, that's okay!" Yugi does her best to be encouraging in her own hectic way. She covers her mouth in shock when Yves gets asked right in front of everyone.

“I guess being forward about things is better these days,” Caitlin commented, a little surprised by Faye’s dance proposal to Yves.

"What? Why are you two looking at me like that?" Faye's eyes darted from Yugi to Caitlin before settling down on the jackalope she was holding. "It's just a dance."

Hella finally arrives at the group, standing on top of her aigialosuchus as it does all of the actual moving. "A dance in a week? Guess there are worse ideas with a fish watching over us."

"Thanks Caitlin!" Yugi says, but there is a flash of disappointment in her eyes. "And I mean it! Whatever seems fun! And whenever you think of it!" She turns to Felix, "Oh that would be awesome! It's always such a treat you're seriously so amazing at cooking! But, would you like to be in the dance? Because I'd rather you get your chance to dance or spend time with someone if that's what you want. Maybe we can do a meal that we can re-heat on the day of!" "Oh, uh..." Felix's face flushed red a little, and he cleared his throat. "I-I mean, I've never danced at all in my life, and the thought of doing it with another person is, um..." He trailed off for a moment, embarrassment filling his expression. "... s-scary. Don't wanna trip them up or something..."

She looks through her notes, "Spirit week might fall by the wayside unless one of you guys can take over running that..." “…Oh!” Nico sounds surprised as he snaps back to reality. “Sorry, were you talking to me?” He asked. “I was thinking about the last time I asked someone out and about how well that went…” He laughs, but there’s no humor or joy behind it. “I don’t think I could go through with that again…”

Mikoto tugs at their collar awkwardly. "Erm. If there's anything I can do to help prepare things, my friends, you need only ask!"
"Though if not, I might train my dance technique..."

Yugi closes her eyes when Faye says that, "Oh me? I'm not looking at you! I just was thinking myself of asking people, and so maybe I was accidentally looking on accident! That's all! I have someone I would like to ask and they super haven't been asked yet and I can ask them without feeling weird!" Hearing the signature arm-waggling of an Aigialosuchus and Hella's voice, Yugi nods her head, "Yeah I bet there are billions of worse ideas!" She laughs. "I hope you can make it Hella!" "Oh, uh..." Felix's face flushed red a little, and he cleared his throat. "I-I mean, I've never danced at all in my life, and the thought of doing it with another person is, um..." He trailed off for a moment, embarrassment filling his expression. "... s-scary. Don't wanna trip them up or something..." "Don't worry Felix! Many of us are in the same boat! Maybe we can own a part of the dance floor!"

"Well, I thought this would be more of a group dancing situation so I didn't think we'd have to ask anyone. But if anyone wants to dance with me, I'll gladly accept!"

Su-Ah was a little taken aback by the fast response, but she giggles and nods.
"Alright then. Let's have fun organizing this event and then dancing in it!"

Post by Doctor Nanjo M.D. on Mar 25, 2023 20:02:30 GMT
Yugi breathes a heavy sigh of a relief. “Thank you Su-Ah! I’m so excited. Yeah we’ll get to put on the dance and dance together! Right it’s perfect haha!”
To anyone anywhere, this had come largely from nowhere. Even as student council cohorts they hadn’t been close.

"Really?" Calvin seems surprised by Yugi's statements. "Then maybe... I could get my coat fixed up; make it looks nicer. And then figure out how I can incorporates the cactus flowers into my outfit... And maybe incorporates some of 'em into my cady."
"Also, to whoever may ends up being my dance partner, don't be surprised if I wanted to do the cowboy dance." He commented as he did a few gun-spinning tricks after taking his revolver out of the holster. "And by cowboy dance, I don't mean the dance that involves spinning my cannon. Though, yer probably knew that already."

Mikoto waves their arm around a little. "Perhaps we should not stress about partners too much? I doubt many of us know dances to keep up with each other, after all."
"I'll be surprised if anyone can match the traditional dances from my village... Even if I'm not that good.."
