Achilleas shook his head and laughed ruefully. “I certainly hope so. I’m not yet to the stage of practicing with a dancing program. I know doing is better to learn an activity than to read about it, but I like to familiarize myself with the theory first. Do you know how to dance?”

A small chuckle escaped Solal before he could stop it, and he said, “No.” He’d tried it once - or rather been made to. But he didn’t really get the point, nor did he understand what exactly one was supposed to do when dancing. Realizing that his answer may have come across as unkind or rude, he added, “It’s… never really been my thing. I do like to read about things before I do them.”

“Oh, we have that in common then. The reading about something before doing it.” Achilleas’ face brightened as he took in this kindred spirit. “There’d been a number of things I’ve studied extensively before taking the plunge and doing it. Some worked out pretty well and others failed spectacularly. Dancing hasn’t really been my thing either but I want to learn and be good at it if it will bring her happiness. I’m willing to push my comfort zone to bring her some joy.”
