[He smiles at that compliment. Ah yeah]

Oh? Have you been feeling better?

[dancingmd]

I have!

[Other than Nightingale managing to get through the augment's influence to upset her, that is. But he doesn't need to know about that. Instead, she lowers her voice, in an overly conspiratorial manner.]

I even went dancing. They have some fascinating musical styles here!

[save_the_souls]

Really? That's wonderful! I know you love dancing!

Did you go with anyone?

[dancingmd]

Well normally, I actually don't like too many people knowing about that. Good side effect of the glitch, I suppose, that I'm not embarrassed now.

But yes, Daneel went with me! I don't know if you've met him yet?

[save_the_souls]

There's nothing to be embarrassed about with dancing.

I don't think I've met Daneel yet. Is he a friend?

[dancingmd]

[Dryly.] You wouldn't say that if you were the one people insisted on calling "The Dancing Doctor" all through med school.

[But her smile quickly returns.]

Yes, Daneel is my friend! I met him a few months ago, when he first arrived. I'm surprised I haven't mentioned him before... I think you'd like him!

[save_the_souls]

Oh no, I guess people didn't call me that...they just made walker puns out of my name. [yeah] But point taken.

Then I hope to meet him sometime! [he grins a little] Is he a good dancer?

[dancingmd]

[Are you insinuating something here Allen???]

He's still learning... no one had ever taught him to dance before. But he's off to a good start! And my toes have so far remained uninjured, which is more than I can say for some other partners in the past.

[save_the_souls]

[NOTHING AT ALL. But that gives him a little amusement]

That is a good start! I'm sure he'll be an excellent dancer when you're through.

[dancingmd]

[Liar.

...Not that she's really insulted of course.]

Maybe we'll even start up our own jazz revue. Provide a little entertainment for the fleet.

[save_the_souls]

That might not be so bad! People seemed nothing but starved for entertainment here.

[dancingmd]

Maybe... to be honest, if I was going to do any sort of performance, I'd rather put on a play.

[She brightens at that thought! A play! That could be just the thing!]

Do you think people here would go for that? Being in a play I mean?

[save_the_souls]

Uh-!

[He blinks in surprise]

Maybe some would! Plenty of people like to perform. [And before she even asks] - Er, not me really, though. Other...people.

[dancingmd]

Are you suuure you don't want to?

[save_the_souls]

[He gives a little exhale]

Absolutely sure.
