i'll show you how to move your feet

He had already captured her attention with the offer of a dance, but one Ysmir added that this was something he had learned from his people she was even more intrigued. She still didn't know a whole lot about where he came from or his family, other than the bits and pieces she was able to glean from their conversations and that the circlet that he had gifted her was related to his culture, so something like this felt even more special as it gave her a little glimpse into his life before she met him. She returned his grin as she stood across from him and gave a little mod as he gestured for her to follow him. Gwyn did her best attempt at matching his movements, giving him a bow in return and stepping back before shifting forward once more. He surprised her with how graceful and easy on his feet he was as he moved. While she wasn't the smallest or daintiest woman around, he was still a good bit larger than she was and still somehow danced easily and naturally with his larger paws.

Her movements were uncertain and awkward at first, having to watch him closely and ending up a beat behind at some points as she tried to figure out and memorize the movements. After a couple of repetitions she began to get the hang of it and slowly began to anticipate the next movement, her look of concentration slowly giving way to a more easy smile as she moved with him. As their dance repeated and she managed to match each of his steps without missing one, she giggled and grinned up at him happily, continuing their dance together under the moonlight with the crackle of the fire and chatter of their friends and family in the distance. Everything else felt far away as she enjoyed this special moment alone with the love of her life. It was hard to imagine a more perfect moment, but somehow Ysmir always managed to top himself again and again for her.
