"Senior Sister Lily is a very lonely girl; I could see it from the first moment I set eyes on her. You boys don't have this awareness; sometimes, it's more agonizing to meet and fail to grasp than to never have met at all."
The two executed a dance move and spun around, his gaze drifting towards Lily, who sat quietly in the corner.
At that moment, she looked like an injured little beast, curled up in a dim corner outside the dance floor, looking a tad lonely.
This instant made him feel a twinge of heartache.
"I know your character; if you can bring someone out without harming your own interests, you don't mind lending a hand, even if it might be a bit of trouble."
Kael shook his head firmly and said, "No, now is the time for you and me to dance."
"You're right," Elanna chuckled, "The first dance is almost over. Hold my hand, and see what years of following the knight's path have done for my physical prowess."
