Fandom High School Host Club - Sunday, February 10 - Music Room: Late Afternoon

On this particular afternoon, soft classical music could be heard throughout the Music room at Fandom High. Tamaki had brought with him a small stereo and had been sure to have plenty of waltzing music on hand. In addition to the music, he'd brought two stacks of handouts, which he stacked neatly next to the stereo.

Tamaki smiled at everyone as they filed in, then bowed low in greeting.

"My fellow students and brand new hosts," he said cheerily, "Welcome to the Fandom High School Host Club's second ever meeting!" He smiled and gestured to the first stack of handouts. "First of all, I would like each Host to take a look at these basic lessons in etiquette. You will all be expected to behave like gentlemen while you are in the club! Do not forget," he winked. "I would also like all of you to see me when you have a moment, for I shall be taking costume theme suggestions for upcoming meetings." He turned to the guests. "I shall also take costume theme requests from the ladies, if they have any ideas," he added, with a disarming smile, "For their input is the most precious of all. Our aim is to delight!"

"As I mentioned in my e-mail earlier this week, you will all be learning to waltz today. A gentleman is graceful and light on his feet, Hosts," he said smoothly, sweeping his arm through the air as he spoke and stopping it in front of the second stack of papers. These are your dance step diagrams. Study them carefully, then choose a dance partner and give the waltz a try! I will be watching, and please do ask me if you're unsure. Give it your best effort! On occasion, the Host Club will have parties, and parties require dancing!"

After a moment, he grinned and cocked his head to the side, raising a hand to his chin. "I would like to add that I am also available to dance, and honored to do so, should any of the lovely volunteers feel lonely or wish to test my skill and grace."

He raised his hands and clapped them sharply, beaming with glee as he did so. "Begin!"

[OOC: Please wait for OCD is up. Post is here for everyone who loves to dance! The Host Club is seeking volunteers to waltz with the Hosts and the music room doors are wide open. Please come and dance with us!]

"Lirr--" He sighed again. "You are my friend and allowed to mess up. It happens. That's what being human is, you know."

"I'm also allowed to put your happiness as something I'm worried about," and he looked at Teddy.

"If you enjoy my company and want me to be around you, mindful of what might happen, that's fine. If you're doing it out of guilt or pity, that's another matter."

That earned him a thwap upside the head. Because Liir really needed one. "Do I seem like the type to hang out with because because of guilt? Or pity?"

He held his hand to the spot for a moment before Looking at Teddy.

"You're nice enough. How should I know."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
He gave Liir a Look.

"I'm not, you dork. You're my friend and nothing is going to change that."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
"Considering you haven't hugged me once since we started talking again, how should I know?"

He was only partially kidding.

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
That just got him yet another Look. "Dork."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
"I call you dork in reply," he said imperiously. "In fact, I multiply it by dork, in your case."

...he's spent most of the morning with Ino. It's made him a bit more flippant.

"See?" Teddy asked, grinning. "No more weirdness."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
He shuddered.

"I wish."

But he was content to leave that where it was.

"How have you been, otherwise?"

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
"Been better," Teddy admitted. "But now it's... better."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
He gave a small smile.

"I'm glad. And I'm trying to make sure that, er, doesn't happen again."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
"If you need help..." Teddy shuffled a bit awkwardly. "I don't know how I can help, but the offer is there."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm going to ask Professor Ambrose about it tomorrow. He, er, might know. I don't know."

He has to do something. After that vision the other night, after Karal...

He breathed out.

"I just know it can't continue."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
And there was that hug.

"You'll figure something out."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
"Or I'll end up in a tower, alone and hated and get killed by a well meaning little girl at the height of my madness."

Amazing how some of our worst fears can come out in a half-joking tone in the middle of nowhere.

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
That was an oddly specific fear.

Teddy hugged him more. "You won't."

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh? Can you see the future then?" he asked, mostly joking. Then again, who knew?

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
"No, but I know you want to stop this so you will." It was as easy as that, really.

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
He didn't get as fatalistic as he would have liked with Teddy. There wasn't much of a point.

"You know, I haven't baked much all week. And only cooked once or twice."

Re: Mingle

"Too busy with Andrew?"

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
"Boyfriends are very distracting."

And he couldn't help but blush. It felt good to use the word.

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Teddy just grinned. "So it's official?"

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] new-to-liirness.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
He nodded without looking up.

"He asked me if we could at the movies the other night," he said. Don't ask him what was on. He totally wasn't watching the movie.

Re: Mingle

[identity profile] notthehulk.livejournal.com 2008-02-11 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
"You asking him out next?" Teddy asked.
