Lupus In Fabula

[Reeves]

With the demonstration and explanation she gave over, he blinked wordlessly. He wasn't confused or dumbfounded - just thinking. After three seconds of just this, he raised a hand and spoke quietly. "Wait here, I'll be right back." Whether or not he was keeping up with the charade was called into question when he reached out for her hand. Once he had it, he raised it to his mouth for a swift kiss before briskly walking away.

While guests were generally advised to stay away from the stage where the live band was performing, nobody seemed inclined to stop Damien. In fact, security which was perfectly out of sight but still present were under strict instructions to give him a free run of the place. The band themselves were a little surprised to be approached so directly, quickly throwing themselves into a musical flourish so they could pause as if breaking into silence for another song. Whatever words were exchanged between Damien and the band was unclear for the moment, distance and background noise making it impossible to eavesdrop.

But just as swiftly as he'd broken away from his date, he came back. Offering his hand as a frenetic jazz fusion number kicked into full gear. It was thoroughly exuberant, irregular in its tempo but played passionately. Something only a band of this stripe could deliver, with their ability to adapt and near flawlessly replicate foreign sounds. Strings were plucked, rattles shaken, drums struck, and the brass married it all together. The floor was set, and so Damien made his request. "Will you show me?"
