"Come on."

"No."

"Come oooooon."

"No. I don't even get why you want to do this."

"Because I love to dance, and I love teaching people to dance, and you will love to dance if you do it with me. It'll be fun!"

"That's what you said last time."

"Killjoy. Come on. Pretty please with sugar on top."

"..."

"And a cherry?"

"Fine. Okay. You win."

"Great! See you tomorrow. Wear a speedo."

"What?"

"Or something else skimpy. You need a lot of skin to stick to the pole."

"What the hell are you going to teach me? Joy? Joy?"

--

"I can't believe you hung up on me."

"You'd've backed out."

"No... okay, yes I would've."

"And you'd have regretted it. Didn't you have fun?"

"Yes, but if you tell anyone I'll be forced to take drastic measures."

"Oh? Like what?"

"Dunno. Kiss you, maybe. I'll think of something."

"Ooh, tough guy. This should be fun."

"Seriously, Joy."

"Seriously, I won't tell. Though I don't know why you're so shy about it. You're great."

"It's poledancing. Not exactly manly."

"You'd be surprised. Just tell people you did it to see me in a bikini."

"And very nice you look, too."

--

"I never did thank you for teaching me to dance."

"I didn't do much. Just showed you the steps. You've got a great sense of rhythm."

"Comes from drumming. Anyway, I meant... I don't know if we'd be here if you hadn't. Didn't get up the courage to ask Clara out until three dances in."

"It's a great confidence-booster, isn't it? I bet she fell for you when she saw your poledancing skills."

"Shut up, I haven't told her about that and I'm not going to."

"If you don't, I will. You can't keep secrets from your wife."

"Shut up!"

You know what's so cool about this?

I can still see them talking to each other, even though only the talking is offered.

And Aaron in a Speedo. I can see that.

*low whistle~*

[subluxate]

Apparently Nicoletta has a mild physical-only crush on Aaron. The things that finally get a comment from a character.

Anyway! Looove. I can also see these conversations so well. It's very well done, if only for that!

[isana]

Aaron is probably a knockout in a Speedo, haha. I love how natural the conversation is between him and Joy, and even though it's only dialogue, the images come to mind very naturally.

[kay_brooke]

Heh, cute. I love how distinct the character voices are; you don't even need dialogue tags to know who's talking.

This is plenty fluffy in my book. It's adorable. Oh, Aaron. Joy is the best forever.

Great job!

[ce_jour_la]

Hysterically, perfectly awesome. I want to shrink them into miniatures and carry them around in my purse to cheer me up on bad days.

... Er, which is intended as a compliment, not as a creepy... weird thing. -.-

[bookblather]

Heeee, he's a little unnerved but pleased by the compliment. Thank you very much!

[bookblather]

Huh. Well, he's flattered, and slightly freaked out. Thank you very much for the dialogue compliment!

[bookblather]

Pretty close. Unnerved though; he's not fond of showing that much skin. And the comfort level between them is quite nice to write, you know? Thanks!

[bookblather]

ooh, thank you so much! I admit to being slightly worried about it, so this is nice to hear. Thanks!

[bookblather]

She is. And he knows it. XD Thanks!

[bookblather]

It comes out as a compliment to me! Thank you very much. :D

[justice_turtle]

Things I missed when you posted them... ^_^

Which is to say, THIS IS AWESOME THANK YOU. :D

[bookblather]

You're quite welcome! I do love so much that Joy taught Aaron to poledance. Something about it just makes my heart warm.
