@ofthewiind / IF SHE IS TO BECOME A POISED PRINCESS IN SO LITTLE TIME, he simply had no time to WASTE. he knew there was no better way to offend the eye than poor dancing. to fit into their modern society, she’d have to know the most popular of dances. thankfully, john was in the position of knowledge here ---------------------- groomed all his life to be the perfect gentleman to a lady whether across the sea or in the ballroom.
❛ here’s where you would switch partners --------- which is unfortunately a custom we must uphold, no matter how dreary the partner may be ; & i do apologize if I happen to be the poor partner, ❜ he muses with a playfulness on his lips as he carefully spins her out & then DRAWS HER BACK INTO HIS ARMS. he’d seen her dance in her own home -- sporadic & wild & carefree. how careful the english dance must be to her ; boring too he can imagine.
