"Oh?"
"Yep!"
"And... ?"
"And what?"
"Who is this person?"
Penny laughed. "Who do you think it is? Me!" She grabbed one of your hands and began to walk along the side of the counter. You stumbled to your feet and followed her on the other side.
"Whoa, wait! Where are we going?"
Penny finally reached the edge of the bar and spun to face you head on. She placed her hands on your shoulders and started to push you backwards. "The dance floor, silly! No wonder you don't know how to dance- you need everything spoon-fed to you, eh? Don't worry, I'll teach you somehow."
"Hold on! Don't I get any say in this?"
"None whatsoever!"
Penny maneuvered you to the center of the floor despite your half- hearted objections. You weren't angry, just surprised and nervous at how quickly this was going. Penny waved towards a Chatot girl bobbing her head behind the DJ table and gestured. The DJ gave a thumbs up and switched to a song with a fast dance beat.
"Okay, just watch me for a few seconds and join in when you think you've got it."
She began to slide and dance in tune with the music. She moved very quickly, and you could barely keep up. You spent more time recovering from tripping over your own feet than actually dancing.
"Penny, could you slow down? I can't go that fast!"
Penny grabbed your arms and pulled you close to her body. "You need to keep in time with the music. You can't just slow down! Let's try a more hands-on approach."

"It doesn't matter what I answer, does it?"
"Glad to see you're catching on!"
Penny began to dance again, but this time she moved your body in unison with her own. She pressed herself against you as she gyrated and moved with the beat. This was much better. After only a few minutes, you felt like you had a decent grasp of what to do.
"Great! Excellent! You're getting the hang of this!"
"This dance isn't too bad once you know how to move..." Penny cleared her throat, prompting you to add, "Er, and you're a really good teacher."
"Hey, thanks, Reid! That's very nice of you. Since you seem to have this one down, I think it's time...
