"C'mon!" Sora grins over Riku's way, hand outstretched towards him for a moment --- but only for a moment. Sora's never been the kind to wait and dawdle, and soon enough he's taking the leap, bridging that gap and grasping Riku's hand in his own as he pulls the other boy towards the center of the square where Corona's citizens dance. It's a dizzying and frenetic pace around them, but infectious and joyful and Sora keeps Riku close as his dance partner. "Just have fun!"

IT’S ALWAYS BEEN EASY for Riku to lose himself in his thoughts, something that happens frequently when Sora takes him on this tour de’worlds as it were – showing him all the places he went while he was learning how to be strong again.
There’s just something about Corona. It’s not the last world on their tour, not even close, but there’s something about the way the people live here, the way they allow such joy into their lives every day that’s almost– well. It’s enticing, in a way, to Riku. The idea of letting himself be relaxed enough to just… enjoy everything going on around him.
Sora, as usual, jolts him out of his thoughts – his brain registers the outstretched hand too slowly for him to do much before his own hand is grasped and he’s being yanked up to his full height by the other male. “What–” And it’s all he really gets to say before he’s being tugged towards the center of the square.
It’s hard not to give into the music. It’s infectious, it feels like it’s down to his core and admittedly, doing something like this with Sora? That’s infectious, too. It’s dazing in a way that nothing else he’s experienced has been, all the bodies moving around him, so he just focuses on his hand in Sora’s, puts a hand on his waist, and dances with him.
And maybe, with this – it can be easy to lose himself in this, too. The feeling of Sora’s hand in his, his body heat near him and their bodies moving in time to the music. He can lose himself here. This time, he thinks, he’d certainly rather lose himself in the good feelings of enjoying time with the one he cares most about.
