A small, nondescript flyer fluttered like a rectangular white shroud outside each of Astrea's three schools respectfully. They were loosely tapped, and a little ravaged by the wind, but not necessarily unreadable. Branded with the metallic silver silhouette of a camellia flower, the regal flyer read:   

Dear the lovely students of Astrea,

Fond of or interested in the art of waltz or ballroom dancing? As a spider cannot thrive without a substantial web, nor a candle without a flame, one cannot successfully rehearse a full, mapped-out waltz or ballroom dance without a partner.  I, Alice Himeno, are in need of a partner. It does not matter the experience, nor the coordination or originating school - any level of experience is welcome. Frequent attendance is not a direct requirement, but much appreciated, as it will speed up the productivity and completion of rehearsals. Anyone is welcome so long as they are serious and can shoulder commitment if needed in the future. A response would be greatly appreciated. My sincere gratitude for anyone's passing interest.

Alright, so Alice specializes in waltz and ballroom dancing. Once she graduates, she will be required to perform before her parents and their business associates to demonstrate the regal, "perfect" women that her parents had hoped the academy would mold her into. This performance will include a partner of whom she has never danced with before; her childhood rival and a man favored by her parents, and she is expected to be able to perform with a partner without any falters.

 I was thinking it might be interesting and/or helpful to Alice if she had a partner in Astrea with whom she could commonly practice with. I can see her eventually opening up to this girl in time as they get to know each other inside their practices, possibly to the point where she finds she can only really perform with her as a partner and no one else, as no one is really more in tune, if that be desired/of interest. Anyone may jump in here if they wish; I don't really have a preference as to any specifics for this girl.    

If anyone is interested, don't be hesitant to say something~ If not, that's alright. Just let me know. c:

Dearest, Alice

I am a new student and had stumbled onto your note, I may not be what you are looking for and would not want to fail you.

If you haven't tossed this yet, my mother had me in dance since I was two years of age knowing that its more like jumping up and down at that age you might be rolling your eyes.
Yet I loved to Dance and when that was taken from me I have missed it. I would love to learn again and become a great dancer like my mother . Please allow me this chance.

Though if I am not the one you are looking for it is alright .

OC write as a letter back but yea I think our characters. May flow in dance nicely hehe and in life possibly.

Dear Jessie McKnight,

It is in my highest gratitude that I thank you for your response on my request. It's a shame that something so dear to you has been striped away, though I am willing to supply you with this chance. I admire your fondness in the activity. Whether you fail me or not is completely up to chance, but I doubt that many problems should arise, especially since it appears you have danced before.

If you wish to seek me out on further proceedings on this, you may most commonly find me in the theater, should you still have an interest. I believe it would be beneficial to further discuss this in person.

Thank you for your interest, and I shall be waiting to see you soon on the request, so that we may meet if you wish, Miss McKnight.

Warm regards,
Alice Himeno


(OC: Thank you so much for posting, and I think so too~)

Dear Alice

I will meet you there today, I do hope to make you proud.

Jessie mcknight

Dear Jessie McKnight,

I shall await your arrival then, miss McKnight, and am looking forward to working with you, should it bode well. Once again, allow me to offer my sincere gratitude for your interest.

~Alice Himeno
