Your mission today requires finesse, subtlety, and a facade of normalcy—a guise that seems to chafe against your very soul.

You stand beside Jade, your partner in this mission, though the term "partner" seems to grate against your sensibilities. She's a member of the prestigious Ten Stonehearts, and you can't help but feel a twinge of resentment towards her as she carries herself with that air of superiority.

"Come on. Why don’t we dance? Isn’t that the main point of our mission?" Jade teases, her voice carrying that quiet confidence that irks you to no end.

You grit your teeth, suppressing the urge to snap back at her. Instead, you force a smile, though it feels more like a grimace. "Sure, dancing sounds lovely," you reply, knowing that this cover of cooperation is crucial for the success of the mission.

Trying to match her steps, but your movements feel awkward and clumsy in comparison, you fail very miserably. You curse silently under your breath, hating how she effortlessly steals the spotlight, leaving you stumbling in her silhouette.

"Not a dancer yourself? I can teach you, but it seems you wouldn’t like that," Despite her chuckle, she seemed to be amused of your dedication to just try. Not bad for her taste.
