I Just Wanna Dance!

The smoke coated dame seemed more than willing to be taught the arts, leaping to her feet and beaming at her as she exclaimed her excitement and willingness. So, the golden giantess got to her feet as well, her unusually long tail brushing aside the branches of the willow tree as she turned to step within it's hold. It was always easier to work in a sheltered environment, where a sudden gust of wind wouldn't disrupt your balance, or a passing wolf wouldn't make you uncomfortable while you were just learning. Plus, sound was slightly muffled within the embrace of the willow branches, so it would be easier to show Ardhel how to find the music within the air. She motioned with her front paw for the petite she wolf to step inside as well, her sharp green gaze resting happily on the other. Once the smaller woman was within the circle of branches, they would slither together as the dusty golden woman stood in front of the violet eyed, grey coated she wolf. "First, find the music around you, find the beat of your heart, or the staccato drum of claws on stone. Now search for more, the contralto croaking of a toad, or the birdsong in the trees. Once you find that, let your body follow the tune, like this," She told her, her mezzo-soprano voice soft and encouraging. Closing her eyes, she let her tall auds search out the tune of the area once more; toads, rhythmically calling to one another; the clacking beat of the reedy willow branches coming together in the breeze; the faint call of the birds in the trees around them. Now her body would move, a sight that could make almost anyone fall to their knees in awe. Her lengthy torso wove back and forth, slowly, smoothly, like a snake in the sand; her paws stepping fluidly over one another to keep her balanced, her long ebony claws creating a steady staccato; her long tail swept through the air behind her like a ribbon of silk; and her grass and honey optics swept shut as she let the music tell her body what to do. Not many got to see her dance, she usually did it in private, or with her mother, but she enjoyed it so much, she was willing to provide her new friend with an example. Soon the music began to fade from her ears as she pulled herself back to reality, and her emerald optics flew open to stare into the smaller woman's own violet pools. What did she think? Will she give up now that she's seen what it takes? I hope not, it would be nice to have a dancing partner again... She thought to herself, stopping that train of thought to avoid the painful memories of her mother's lack of presence in the area. She sat down on the cool terra, watching Ardhel with a proud, content gaze, and waited for a response from the she wolf. Speech, Thought, Others, |
