Snippet #2220119

Franki couldn't help but giggle, as she took Atomsk's hand. "Why thank you, kind sir." He helped her up to her feet, and walked with him to the roof door. She kept her arm linked with his, which hopefully he didn't mind. He didn't seem to protest as they made their way downstairs and out of the building.

She took in a deep breath, letting the wind blow through her hair. She could feel the water pulsing through everything with life, her connection to it strong. She turned to Atomsk. "Where shall we go, good sir?"

She spun, her feet easily finding the rhythm. She wanted to dance. To feel the music course through her veins, the way she could feel water flow through the trees and the flowers. It was the first time she wanted to properly dance in a long time. Her body immediately falling into proper forms.

Franki laughed, as she finally came to a stop, smiling up at Atomsk, her arms falling softly to her sides.

"I haven't wanted to dance in a long time." She mused. "My mother tried to force me to be a proper girl, who did proper girly things. Dancing being one of them. Lessons, so many lessons. And finally, I just stopped. Sick of the early mornings, the starvation, god, I missed food so much!" She laughed.

She spun again. "This is the first time in a long time that I've just wanted to dance." She pointed her toes and swung her hips. She was taught proper practices during her dance lessons, but over the years she had added her own style and swing to the stiff movements. She smiled, giddy at the familiar feelings that she had been pushing away for years.

She spun again and held out a hand towards Atomsk. "Dance with me?" She smiled.
