"you scared me, i didn't see you there."

"sorry...i just..."

"got so lost in the beauty of my talent?"

"what talent?"

"pfft, liar."

"i was just surprised that you were here. i came a little earlier than planned."

"so did i. i like to be on time."

"..."

"what?"

"i do, too."

"great, then."

"so what shall we do? practise the talentshow-dance, 'cause-"

"let's work on that jump, shall we?"

"...no. i'll put on the music, and we'll improvise."

"im...provise?"

"um, yeah?"

"i don't improvise."

"what about our dance battle? that was improvising."

"well, i'd never done that before. improvising isn't my thing."

"well, it's my thing. routine is boring."

"routine makes you better."

"improvise with me."

"can't."

"no?"

"no."

"fine. then i, naomi, challenge you, kieran, to another dance battle."

"..."

"what? scared i'll kick your ass again?"

"i'll beat you this time."

"one's allowed to dream."

"i choose the song."

"fine, if it makes you feel better."

"what? don't like this song?"

"i do, but it's too slow to dance to."

"guess it gives me an advantage, though."

"..."

"you can start this time."
