Rivia was bad at first as well...but Rivia kept at it so Ferr can do it too!"[/color] Nodding eagerly, it would seem the dance lessons would have to be on hold as Cole was quick to shut it down. It didn't damper her mood one bit, though she was now uncertain. She wasn't sure she knew any of the 'outsiders' dances. At the mention of not swapping partners, the demi-human took a moment to consider the fact that there were dances that didn't involve more than one partner, squeezing her eyes shut from the effort of trying to imagine it. Nope, wasn't working. She couldn't even begin to visualize it, it was far too foreign a concept for the young wolf girl. Perhaps if she looked around instead of looking within, she would have had more success but the thought never crossed her mind. The comments on being a beast girl and the nobles in general flew over her head. She didn't understand human hierarchy or their discrimination against the demi humans, nor had she been around them long to have really experienced it. So she just nodded as if she understood. Suppose she could at least understand that humans had a vastly different thought process to both dancing and having fun. Well, there was only way for her to properly understand then. Glancing down with that now familiar tilt of her head as Ferr interlaced their fingers, she stared down at their hands. Why was Ferr doing that with his fingers? Was he trying to break her grip or something? She didn't think she was gripping him that hard, but her father had always told her that she had a habit of not minding her own strength. Giving the man a quizzical look, their eyes locked and in that moment as she went to open her mouth, Cole spoke. Much louder this time. It wasn't like an angry rising of his voice, it was more a...well Rivia wasn't quite sure how to describe it. Heroic was probably the right term, but the term was unknown to her. So to her it was more like her father addressing the hunters before a hunt. Inspiring? She wondered for a moment if that was the correct way to think of it. But as he spoke, the girl feverishly nodded her head as she absorbed by his every word. [color=8A5D4C]"Rivia too! Rivia will crush the waves as well. Will hunt down every monster."[/color] She wasn't entirely sure what a zombie was, but she was certain that a hero of legend would have no troubles dealing with such a weak sounding creature. Indeed, the heroes were more than worthwhile to follow if his words were anything to go off of. If he even got close to the mantle of the strongest in the world, then Rivia would have the chance to grow strong as well! That was all she truly wanted. She needed to become strong to get payback on the waves however she could after-all. But there was one pressing matter to deal with. While they could deal with the waves and becoming stronger soon, this was something she had to defeat now. [color=8A5D4C]"Then can Ferr and Cole teach Rivia? Human dances that is. Rivia wants to fit in and not be a nuisance or hassle. It's what Father always wanted."[/color] She looked between the two of them as she spoke. [color=8A5D4C]"And if we can't dance together...then could we take turns?"[/color]
