Hanen and Rylene had gotten the pastries without problem. He only hoped Zylaera had such luck with the wine. He had wondered how the girl was going to get her hands on some, but figured she had her ways. Meanwhile he decided to scope out a table. "I think this one should suffice. Now how are we going to get some music, for dancing?" Hanen remarked outloud. Then looked over at Rylene. "Do you dance?" Hanen knew that some people did not know how, but figured he would ask. He did not want her to feel uncomfortable about the dancing. "My mother made me take lessons. Most Weyrbrats learn at a young age, even my sister had to take time out from doing chores and other leaaons to learn. She however, is no match for me." HE boasted a little. Not that he was the best, but he certainly knew how, and he was a very strong leader. HE hated to see boys who could not lead a girl properly in a dance because they did not take control of it. They were responsible for helping the girl find where to move. Well he hoped Rylene was comfortable with this, because she seemed to be one of those people who never got into much trouble. Daze had woken in the creche and come to find him. She came winging into the hall, landing delicately on Hanen's shoulder.

Rylene grinned at Hanen, and couldn't help but giggle. "Sure I know how to dance....my mother used to dance around with me when I was little. Well I hope your as good as you say you are... I hate it when peope step on my feet." Rylene smurked, she was a good dancer herself, but she know people sometimes made themselves better sounding/looking then they really were. She'd just see how good Hanen really was.
"Well if we can find some muscic, would you like to dance? Zylaera should be here soon. I hope she didn't get in trouble..." She let her sentence hang and then shook her head. She wondered how-many chores Zylaera would get for punishemt if she was caught.

"Hey, I'm supposed to ask you that question." He mocked humility then said, "I do enjoy a good dance." He eyed her suspiciously, perhaps it would be better to wait, but then, dancing was easier when you were not full of food. "I'm sure she is just taking her time, so she doesn't get caught. Besides if she has to do extra chores, we can help her out, since we were all kind of in on it."
He set Daze down to guard the pastries. She preened and then strutted around the food like she owned it. "Maybe Zylaera knows where to find some music... Though I doubt anyone at the Weyr is free to play songs at this time of day."

Zylaera jigged into the hall with two skins singing from her wrists. She noticed them looking for her and gave a short laugh. "You guys miss me? I hope you didn't think i had skipped out?" It had been a bit of a long walk to where she got her wine but it was worth it. She nodded to the tall girl beside her bouncing a baby on her hips with a guitar slung over her shoulder. "This is my brother Corthaene's wife, Allyopa. She just had her baby boy Colyo so she is off duty and therefore she can give us a bit of music. She's a journeywoman and plays the guitar as well as anyone so i hope you'll find it satisfactory."
Allyopa, who had a similar personality to Zylaera showed no modesty and went into a flourished bow waving her hand to the air. Zylaera nodded to Hanen. "A little wherry told me you were quite the dancer, but i have to see it for myself. " She turned to Rylene, "I hope you don't mind if i take the first dance." And she motioned to Hanen to join her. Allyopa struck of a fast and lively tune on her guitar her contralto voice mixing her with the strumming of the strongs to creat perfectly passable dancing music. Bubblys and the wine could wait a little longer. Right now she had some energy to burn.

Hanen of course was excited to see she had brought the music and wine. "Well it looks like the problem is solved." He smiled to Rylene. Being the only guy, he had a feeling he was going to be worn out dancing with both ladies, however, he was more than happy to oblige. Hanen looked apologetically at Rylene, she had asked him first after all. Zylaera had a way of taking over a situation so it wasn't too big of a shock that she expected the first dance. He aknowledged the gitarist first, "Pleasure to meet you. Thank you for helping us out a bit." Then he followed Zylaera to the dance floor. He gave her a cursory bow then quickly put his hand around her slim waist and the other took her hand. He began to move them both about the floor to the very lively music. The dance was a hard one actually with the upbeat music, but he managed not to step on anyones toes and continue to reamin on beat.

Zylaera grinned, he was a good dancer. She was fairly adept herself though and followed him step for step. The upbeat songs were her favorite to start with...slow dances always boded well towards the end. She felt the contours of her body meld with his as he whisked her in the dance. "Well the little wherry told me true dear Hanen. You can dance." She stated as if daring him to disagree.

Rylene smiled politly at Allyopa and then waved off Hanen and Zylaera. "Don't worry about it I can wait my turn....these pastries need some watching over anyways." As Rylene sat down she tried to keep her face straight, she already had one hand on a hot and delicious smelling pastry. Rylene was trying to act as though she wasn't eating so as to not get Daze all food protevtive.
Rylene watched as Hanen and Zylaera danced to a particularly hard song. She listened to Allyopa's voice and couldn't help but smile at her beautiful tone and skilled guitar playing. Her baby wsa prety cute to. Rylene began tapping her foot to the beat, as she began to sneak yet again another pastry.
((She's such a pig ;D))

Hanen smiled at her comment, "You are not bad yourself. " He grinned and continued to dance to the lively tune. Daze watched with envy her eyes slightly purple in color, as she guarded the pastries in a distracted way. She did not even notice Rylene was eating them. As the song ended he realized he was breathing a bit heavily. "Well that was fun. I admit I need some practice before the next gather."

Zylaera grinned at the end of the dance. It had felt good. Allyopa nodded to her with a flushed face as well. Zylaera curtsied to her parnter and retired to the table. It was Rylene's turn now. She signaled her sister in law to play a medium tune for Hanen would proably be needing something a little less lively to catch his breath. She would tuck in to the pastries and wine. She picked up one of the fresh hot bubblies and let it melt in her mouth. Mmmm. That was good. She washed it down with a swig of good red. It wasn't the finest wine but perfectly reasonable in its own way.

Hanen, being a gentlemenly sort for the day (he did change personalities sometimes, he couls be a jerk, just ask Havala), he offered his arm to Rylene. He hoped that the girls would leave some food and wine for him... he was growing like a weed and needed his food. The kitchens swore he would eat them out of their stock. Daze seemed to get jealous as soon as he offered his arm to Rylene, and started to screech at him a little. "Daze, don't be angry. You are the most lovely firelizard in all of Pern. You just have to understand that these are my friends..." The flit showed him an image of her tearing his face with her claws. "Okay okay..." HE realized he sounded odd having a conversation with his flit. He patted her gently and gave her part of a pastry before offering his arm to Rylene a second time. "Sorry about that, she is the jealous type..."

Rylene had just stood up to take Hanen's arm,how gentlemenly of him, when Rylene heard such a screech that she jumped about 3 inches into the air. She looked all around trying ot find the source of the screech when she heard Hanen talking. Truning around to the table Rylene wacthed as Hanen gave Daze a piece of a pastry and then once more offered his arm to her.
"Jealous...what made you think that." Rylene tried to make a joke of the matter, but her heart was still racing from being scared so. Directing her gaze at Zylaera and Hanen at the smae time, it proved nearly impossible, Rylene grinned. "You two were really good out there. Just looking at you two dancing that hard song made my legs want to collapse...luckily I was sitting down." She giggled foolishly at herself and then held onto Hanen's arm firmly, as they walked onto the dance floor. Rylene wondered absently what Allyopa was going to play for them.

Allyopa began a mild beat, that required more quick feat than lively leaps or great energy. It was certainly a prettier song then the last and although not a song like her las tone it wasn't slow either.

(ooc: I don't know how to dance very well so I can't explain as well as I'd like...))
Hanen smiled at Rylene. He knew the flit had startled her a little and felt bad for it. After he led ehr to the floor he backed away bowed slightly and then moved to take the proper position. His hand on her waist he began to dance. His feet were probably not as quick as hers but he knew he could get through without stepping on her. He was a strong lead when it came to dancing and so the girl generally did not have to worry about the next step. He pushed her gently into a twirl and then reclaimed her.

(don't worry i don't really know how dance well either Rylene laughed as she danced and twirled around. She hadn't danced in a while so she was alittle rusty. "Hanen your doing really good for someone who just danced before hand." She smiled at him, he really did deserve the compliment. "So" Rylene comtinued as she was in a chattery mood, that very strange for her. "Were'd you learn who to dance so well?" She could see that he wasn't the best, but neither was she, and he hadn't stepped on her yet. Which she was very thankful for.

He had learned as most Weyrbrats had, their parents would teach them. He had seen enough gathers to know what it would be like to dance. "My family taught me and I have attended part of a couple gathers...dancing in the background so no one could tell us Weyrbrats to go to bed." He divulged the information without a second thought. The dance was going well though next song he needed some food. He was starving. The hunger pangs just starting to hit him. Well he could last till the end of the song at least. "How about you, where did you learn to dance?"
