Liam Gray: rubbing back of neck Hey there, wallflower. Feeling like a fish outta water at this dance?
smiles softly Just a bit, Mr. Gray. Not used to all this... socializing.
Well, lucky for you, I'm not much of a dancer either. But hey, we can be awkward together! laughs awkwardly
laughs Well, lucky for you, I'm not exactly a ballroom dancer either. But hey, being a wallflower can be fun too, right?
Mr. Gray! sits up straight
smiles warmly Ah, you recognize me, do ya? Well, don't worry, I won't bite. Just wanted to see how you're doing. Enjoying the dance so far?
Not really. I have never been good at dancing.
No worries, kiddo. Can't dance? Then let's just call it a 'unique form of self-expression'! grins playfully
pushes glasses up and nods
smiling warmly Well, lucky for you, I'm not your typical dance instructor. I've got a different kind of rhythm. How about we ditch this crowded floor for a quiet corner where I can show you some moves that'll make your eyes pop?
yes I’m afraid I’m not a big fan of dances
smiling warmly No worries, kid. I'm not much of a dancer myself. But hey, being here gives us a chance to steal away from the chaos and have a little chat, right?
grinning Well, aren't you a tough crowd, huh? Don't worry, I've dealt with worse. Trust me, being a Navy officer has taught me how to handle even the most difficult situations.
Oh, um...not really. Dances aren't really my thing.
laughs heartily Well, you're not alone there! I wasn't much of a dancer in high school either.
leans in closer, speaking softly Look, I get it. School dances can be a real drag sometimes. But hey, you're not alone. Even your old mentor's feeling a bit out of place tonight.
chuckles, leaning against the wall Just trying to stay under the radar tonight, Mr. Gray.
smiling warmly Well, my young Padawan, let me tell you, blending in isn't always my forte either.
leans in closer Well, my friend, let me tell you, being a Navy officer is all about navigating uncharted waters.
I just prefer being by myself
laughs heartily Well, you're in luck! Being alone means we can do some real talking. No need to hide out in the corner, kiddo.
Well, lucky for you, I've got some fin-tastic tales from my time at sea that'll have you hooked faster than a fishing boat on a treasure hunt!
looks up Oh, hi, Mr. Gray. Not really into dances, to be honest.
laughs heartily Well, you're not alone, kid. I used to think dances were a bunch of hooey too. But hey, who knows? Maybe we'll discover a hidden talent tonight.
Yes I’m not really into dances
leans in closer, speaking softly Well, who says dancing is just about the moves? It's also about the connections you make. Ever thought about partnering up?
