Dance, Thursday, 5th Period

"We'll continue our practice of the Sugar Plum Fairy dance," El said as the class entered. "Next we will returned to our regular scheduled dancing lessons, once I have decided which dances to cut and which to keep. If you're all ready," he continued as he picked up his guitar and tuned it. "We'll begin."

Nadia now knew for certain that she wouldn't be out of the brace in time for the pageant on Friday. So instead of marking the steps like she did last week, she was trying to adjust them for someone with only one arm to use for balance and gestures, without making them too dangerous or different from what everyone else was doing.

This took a fair amount of concentration.

"...Nadia, maybe you should just help people learn. I won't make you dance if it hurts too much to do it."

"It doesn't hurt, I just have to figure out how to do it without using that arm."

El nodded. "Try for a me for a moment. I'll see if I can think of anything."

Nadia went back into trying to do the dance without losing her balance or using her left arm.

Unfortunately, this cut down a lot on the energy of the dance. . . .

"Try this," El said, demonstrating a modified version of the dance.

Nadia watched carefully, then gave it a shot. "Would that look okay with everyone else?"

"You're injured. I'm sure it will be fine."

"I still want to dance, though. You sure it'll be alright?"

El nodded. "If you want to dance, I will not stop you. I care less for how it looks and whether you are all enjoying the dance. That's the important part of dance."

Nadia smiled slightly. "Cool."
