Alright, alright. Maybe I'll make Zoro do the potatoes.

Yeah, I agree. Better support, too, last thing we need is your falling on your face or something.

Sounds like a plan to me! He likes slicing stuff up anyway.

H-hey! That wouldn't happen anyway! I have the grace of a cat!!

He must, he agreed more easily than I was expecting him to.

Ha, sure. Anyway, I guess we'll start out slow, but remember you're gonna be dancing around a lot more quickly usually.

Or maybe he's just a big fan of potatoes.

Not a problem! That slow stuff gets boring anyway! I've got amazing reflexes, anyway, so it'll be easy!

He does inhale them pretty quickly when I make 'em.

...Right, how about you wait to say all that until after you've got some of these moves down.

Does he? I never noticed; I'm usually too busy trying to keep my own food from disappearing before I can eat it.

What, you doubt my skills?

...Well, I mean, I notice most of the crew's eating habits. So.

Just a bit, yeah.

Oh. Yeah, I guess you would. So...what's his favorite, then? Potatoes, I mean.

Well. You SHOULDN'T! What could possibly be so hard, anyway??

...There's gotta be something more interesting to talk about than Zoro's favorite type of potatoes.

I didn't say it was hard, it's just going to take some practice before it's EASY.

Hey, I was just trying to keep the conversation going. And you said you noticed that stuff... What's MY favorite food, then?

I think you're underestimating my amazing skills.

Pike. And it doesn't matter what it is, but if I make it and it has chocolate in it, you'll be in the galley sniffing it out before it's even finished.

How about we just test this out and see?

...yeah, okay. I don't come sniffing things out, though! Usually.

Sure. Prepare to be AMAZED!!!

Tell me that again next time I'm making cookies.

...Oh yeah, totally in awe right now.

W-well. I have to get there before Luffy eats them all.

...my shoelace was untied. That didn't count. NOW you can prepare to be amazed, though!

...Sadly, that's actually a fair point.

Uh-huh. Alright, Usopp. Dazzle me.

Obviously!

...so. That was...pretty impressive, right? For a beginner.

Not bad. Your footwork's actually pretty good, we just gotta work on those spins. Or how to spin your partner, more importantly.

...naturally! I told you I'd be great at it!

What's wrong with my spins?

I said "pretty good", not great.

You need more control. You're supposed to be leading. If you're with a girl who hasn't danced like this before - and that'll probably be most of them - then you need to be absolutely sure of what you're doing because she's probably going to be busy worrying about slipping and falling or something. So you gotta have steady hands and strong moves.

Yeah, but I know what you MEANT!

Well. It'd just be with George, I'm sure, not...other girls. And she danced like that with you already, didn't she? So she probably knows what she's doing okay. But. Uh. All right, I can try. I'm just not sure what I'm supposed to DO to get like...that.

That is what I meant and nothing more.

Oh, good attitude. It's just George so it's okay to have noodle arms and only vaguely know which way to spin her. Nice. ...Yeah, I guess it won't do you any good to spin ME around. I mean, I could demonstrate it on you, but then you'd just be backwards. Hmm.

...that isn't what I meant! You just said...ksjfd it's not like I'm gonna be dancing with lots of other people!!

You might be, you don't know! In the future or something. It's no good to half-ass stuff anyway, you might as well get it right if you're going to do it.

Yes you do.

Here, pay attention to how I'm doing it this time.
