Arcaeus nodded to Janelle and let her lead him into the room. He barely registered the decor. He didn't much care for these things. Though he did notice Janelle's mood lighten when they entered.<span style="font-style: italic">I guess I can give this a go. For her.</span>he thought to himself. Arcaeus was silent as the band began to play. He recognized it as a waltz, a dance he hadn't done in years. There were cellos, a saxophone and a trombone, as well as some other instruments that he didn't really care about. He was feeling iffy about dancing with Janelle, as he didn't really enjoy this type of thing. The dance required a switching of partners, which he knew he wasn't going to enjoy. He danced with Janelle a bit, then switched from one lady to the next. He wasn't really paying attention, just going through the motions. He heard some arguing going on but didn't really pay attention to it. He did, however, notice the way that the men Janelle danced with had this look in their eyes. It must have been similar to how he looked not too long ago.<span style="font-style: italic">I can't believe I let myself act like one of these humans, every desire laid bare for anyone to see. Disgusting.</span>he thought to himself, ashamed. Then he was back dancing with Janelle and could relax once more. Their movements became more natural, fluid. They danced off of each other, responding to each other's movements subconsciously.<br/><br/>Arcaeus was focused on how Janelle felt against him. He didn't notice that everyone else was watching them, that they were the center of attention. If he had, he would have stopped it then and there. Eventually though, the song ended and they went and sat down. He heard he humming along with the band and was glad that she was at least entertained. "Are you having a good time?" he asked, as he flagged down a waitress to bring some wine and ale. He also ordered some rolls and wild turkey to eat. "So tomorrow morning I will be heading back to my cabin in the woods. Now the question is, do you want to come with? From my house, I will be deciding whether or not I want to pursue the lead I got here. And we will both need to decide if you want to come with me." he asked. He turned to look at her, and noticed someone quickly look away from them. He made a mental note of it.
