Especially when they weren't aware of what exactly the woman was~ The eager acceptance was rather pleasing for the Twilight Princess, even if it was ignorance on the light dweller's part. Nonetheless, she might as well enjoy the fun while it lasted. She couldn't refuse a dance or two when she stumbled across the stand that had music playing from a local band who was asked to play for the festival. At first, she watched how the locals did traditional dancing before giving it a try herself. While she wasn't a prima donna, it was quite obvious that she was having fun just following her own rhythm. The material of her kimono flowed gracefully behind her as she swayed in time with the music. Her sunset locks dangled in front of her like ribbons flowing in the wind. She couldn't recall ever hosting such things in the Twilight Realm. She wasn't even sure if they could consider this fun or not. It wouldn't hurt to take some of these ideas home, she made a mental note about that. She quickly slipped out of the center of the dancing before the next song started. With a deep sigh of satisfaction, she folded her hands together, and decided to explore some more of the festival~ ooc. click here for Midna's festival costume[/style]

[Nightmare Darklight]

Truth be told, he was rather glad that he had made it to the festival. Oh sure, his name had been announced in the tournament, but people for the most part still didn't know that the blonde guy was the Monster Emperor. For him, that was all he really needed to know in order to enjoy himself. If people recognized him, then he would be having a rather difficult time getting around, without people approaching him concerning his position, or how he was doing in the tournament. So he had a chance to get to the little stand that had a small band playing. Well, perhaps that would be something that would get them into the big leagues.

So, he sat back and watched as people danced to the tune of the music. From what he could see, a lot of them were people who know how to dance, some who were with another, perhaps as a couple, and then you had those who had no idea how to dance. One of the first group though, caught Nightmare's eye. A blue woman with sunset locks. She seemed to be enjoying herself, and it seemed that she actually did know how to dance. However, her presence there didn't really last there, as after a little bit of dancing, she decided that it was time to leave the stage and go else where. Well, maybe Nightmare could keep her around for just a little bit longer.

Taking a few strides after her, it didn't take him long to catch up to the blue skinned woman. Nightmare knew how to dance some himself at least, so maybe things could actually turn out rather good. A hand reached out and grasped hers from behind. It wasn't really a tight grip though, she could break free with little effort and keep on going if she wanted. But, he just needed her attention for a few seconds anyway. "Perhaps you wouldn't mind a few dances with a partner?" Nightmare asked in a rather flirtatious tone. A dance would be a nice way to kick off the whole thing.

It was a shame that it only lasted for so long, but such thoughts had to be put aside. There was still so much to do before one should get melancholic over it would end eventually. Perhaps that was where the significance of the holidays originates~ Due to the fact that it only came around once a year made the whole thing special. In fact, it was quite special to the Twilight Princess for the fact that it was her very first festival ever! The inner child in her was giggling like a kid with a toy, losing her concentration, engulfed in the fun of the world around her. However her fantasy was quickly broken, and her thoughts whirled all back to reality by a sudden hand grasping her own. Her feet paused in their place taken by surprise for a moment or two until her body twirled around to meet a male who held her hand. Her carmine eyes flickered brightly taking in the stranger's appearance as he asked her for a dance. The only thing was this guy didn't happen to be a stranger at all~ It was the same man she ran into in the middle of Hyrule Field in the past. Only this time, Midna was in her true form rather than her mischievous little imp appearance. Small world, wasn't it? She fluttered her long lashes as she unfolded her hand from his grasp - if only to readjust it's placement. A smile formed upon her dark lips as she gave a small bow his kind offer. Well, she suppose she could spare a dance or two with him. "Why certainly," she answered.[/style]

[Nightmare Darklight]

Nightmare couldn't help but flash a grin as she accepted his proposition. It seemed that she was indeed willing to dance with him for a bit. That was something that could put a smile on his face. Not only did the Emperor have someone that he could share a little fun with at the festival, but he could tell that he had a rather unique companion as well. In all his years, he had never come across a young elven woman with blue skin. He wasn't really sure what she was. A zora/hylian hybrid with recessive Zora genes? Then again, wouldn't they be dominant if she was blue? Though she didn't share any of the other characteristics, so she might have just had the zora side as recessive, and hylian in every other manner. He wouldn't think on it now.

With his newfound partner behind him, he grasped her hand and pulled her back onto the dance floor, where others were having a good time as well, Wrapping an arm around her waist, and gently grasping her hand with his, he started to lead her in a slow dance, maneuvering gracefully around the dance floor. Truth be told, he could go with this, or he could go with something that was a bit faster paced. Though in all honesty, he quite preferred the slow dances. There was just something about them that ended up appealing to him. Though he realized that he wasn't the only one, and that this woman might not even have the same tastes.

"Let me ask you would you prefer to go with something a little more fast paced? Or are you fine with just a nice slow dance between us?" It didn't hurt to ask her at least, and it really didn't bother him what they went with. Nonetheless, he was taking an interest in her. It really helped that he hadn't quite run into anything like her. As he took a look into her eyes, he was starting to wonder if she didn't have sheikah in her as well. All this time though, the answer was actually eluding him. Ah well, maybe he could ask her later. For now, it was the night of the festival, and he could have some fun~!

Mentally she noted, she really admired the colors of his choice of party outfit. A bold, bright blue, with an interesting white sea foam design. Midna was quite curious as to why he picked her out of any other woman over by the dance center~ Though she supposed it wasn't often that you managed to find a woman with blue skin around as well. Let's also make a reminder this wasn't the first time they've met - however the circumstances were a bit different back then - she remembered that this man was an oddity of sorts. Soon enough Nightmare returned the Twilight Princess back to the dance floor which she departed ever so quickly earlier. There was mirth, and laughter spinning all around her~ However the only thing she could see was the interesting blond as their hands were intertwined. His other hand was found nestled on her waist whilst her free hand rested upon his shoulder. It was certainly much different than dancing alone, but Midna picked up rather quickly of his lead, with one step following the other in a gentle, but rhythmic motion. Midna tilted her head softly to the side. He was quite considerate, which curled the smile across her lips, glad to have been asked. To be fair, she could find herself liking any type of dances with a partner so long as they knew what the hell they were doing. She had to give him a chance before she could make up her mind on the matter. "Lead, and I shall follow, kind sir," she giggled.[/style]

[Nightmare Darklight]

Well, it seemed that she could dance just as well with a partner as she could when she was all alone. This was something that made Nightmare rather happy, as he preferred to have a partner that didn't trip all over themselves or worse, ended up tripping all over him. So it was somewhat refreshing that he had someone that actually knew what they were doing. Plus, she was rather unique, and he had a feeling that if he didn't ask her for a dance, that someone else would've jumped on it. Whether it was intuition or not, he had a feeling that this girl was going to be rather popular throughout the festival. He wondered if this was her first time here.

So she really didn't mind what he chose to go with, hmm? Well, he would be sure to take advantage of that. "In that case, I think I'll just keep things like this for a bit. I much prefer slow dances." He told her. It was somewhat funny. Most people that saw him, knew how he acted, would probably think he preferred something rather fast paced, something that would force his partner to keep up. But that really wasn't the case, he preferred something slow, that could be taken one step at a time. Not to mention that people were better when it came to dancing slowly, so he didn't really have to worry about colossal screw ups.

As he continued their slow rhythm, Nightmare couldn't really help but enjoy this. It helped that they were both experienced in the matter. "So have you been to the festival before?" He asked, not really skipping a beat as he continued to pull her along with him. Truth be told, he had actually been to this festival many times. Though he had to admit, he hadn't come to this festival alone in a really long time. Oh well, things needed to change, some things weren't perfect, and this was no exception. Nevertheless, he awaited her answer, continuing their little dance together in the meantime.

She found it rather pleasing that he could make something as vivacious as a simple dance seem all the more entertaining. In a sense, it was in the matter of what company you made yourself to be. There was no doubt about it that a blue tinted skin hylian-like woman would strike up an audience. The look on the light dweller's faces was quite a sight to see when they realized how odd she looked. Yet at the same time there was a sense of elegance in her complexion that made it all the more strange, and interesting. She wouldn't be surprised on the whispers that were told as they danced together of how lucky the blond was to be dancing with her. A slow dance, huh? In a way it was rather sweet. One would think that with the beat of the music he would be up for something more fast. To just get whisked away with the melody, and holding the twili woman's hand along the way. That didn't seem to be the case with Nightmare. She couldn't blame him for wanting to take things nice, and slow. It meant all the more time to spend together with the mysterious young lady who appeared out of nowhere. "I wouldn't suppose you chose a slow dance to spend more time with me now, is it?" she asked in a flirty manner. Not to mention it meant that neither of them would be tripping over each other as the pace allowed a wonderful chance of getting used to everything. If she did say so herself, she thought she was a natural at this dancing stuff~ The question that he asked was an easy one to answer. A simple engagement in the little social game of getting to know another. She knew the formalities all quite well~ Midna shook her head slightly as she paced herself to keep in time with the rhythm. Soon enough it wouldn't feel so strange to be doing something that everyone else was getting into. Like taking the first steps as an infant learning to walk, she moved like it was another language, where you didn't need to utter a single word. "This is actually my first time," she answered openly, "I must say I'm having quite an enjoyable time~"[/style]

[Nightmare Darklight]

Well, it seemed the blue woman had a sense of humor. A rather flirty sense of humor, accusing him of just taking a slow dance just to spend more time with her. Ok, maybe there was a part of that that was true. One really didn't come across a blue woman, specifically one that actually made it look good, everyday. So one could say that this woman did indeed intrigue him. There was also the fact that he preferred slow dances in that there was just more time to move, and less chance to actually screw up. To him, it was just easier than something that was rather fast paced. But he'd admit, curiosity held part of it. For now, he just kept with it.

He really didn't find it all that odd that this was her first time at the festival though, to be honest. This wasn't his first time here, and if she had been here before, then he definitely would've heard about her during his past stays, if not seen her himself. "Well it's good to know that you're having a good time. I myself have been here since I was about... either 10, or 11. I'm not really sure what the exact age was. All I know is that it manages to remain enjoyable year after year." His parents had never really brought him to this festival. Truth be told, he only started coming here after he had left for the academy.

Though the real beauty of this festival were the events. He rather likes the way the events were handled, as they never really got boring. "The events they hold here, they tend to switch it up, so it's never the same event for the same day twice in a row. This year, they're doing a tournament to symbolize Din's Power. I actually entered. Looking at the contestants, things should be fairly easy for me." He explained, keeping his stride with the Twilight Princess. It really didn't help though that he wasn't paying much attention to the matches before him. He had no idea who had won the first match, and all he knew right now was that the Undertaker was fighting some dog... girl... minish... thing.

She was curious as to figuring out if it was her looks he liked or was he interested in the whole package? Though she would be a hypocrite if she wasn't interested in him. If only he knew who he was getting himself involved with~ Though Midna wanted to keep her surprises to a minimum until the right moment. What was the fun in letting him know right away? Just like the dance, Midna preferred to let it go nice, and slow so nothing would feel out of place when surprises were made. "Oh really?" she smiled softly, "It really is wonderful. I couldn't ask for a better welcome than to be greeted with a festival where everyone was welcomed~" That was the truth on so many levels. A little statement she would let him figure out on their down time. The song being played was a lively one where all sorts of dances were taking place. Only the two were sharing a moment together amidst the crowd as if they entered a whole another world. Just between the two of them~ When he mentioned about the events they hold every year Midna thought about entering the tournament herself. Oh, wouldn't that given everyone a big surprise, but she had to restrain herself from giving her presence away. Not to mention she would probably get an earful from her ever mindful adviser. "I saw the tournament," she replied eagerly, "It looks like a lot of fun~ I missed it unfortunately. I've never been one to sit, and watch through it. If I had the choice I would be in on the action as well." Maybe she would have her chance in the next events to come? It was never too late to give it a chance. So long as her secret was safe then she had nothing to worry about. "Since this isn't your first time here," she inquired, "You wouldn't mind showing the ropes on how to enjoy the festival, would you?"[/style]

[Nightmare Darklight]

Honestly, he didn't think too hard on her words, rather, he just continued their dance. After all, this was her first time at the festival, so she might not have been too used to the warm welcome that she was getting throughout the festival. Plus he would be genuinely surprised if she ended up getting anything but a warm welcome. Someone as gorgeous as her? There was no way that she would be shunned. Hell, if anything, she'd probably be one of those girls that ended up getting most of the attention at the festival. It was part of why he acted when he did. He knew that if he didn't try something, that someone else would have made a move, and he'd rather not get beat to the punch on something like this. And he was glad he didn't wait. As he continued his dance with her, he had to admit that he found this rather enchanting.

His curiosity however, was piqued in that she found the tournament interesting. Well, he supposed that was a good thing, though he found it humorous that she didn't like the idea of sitting and watching. Did that mean that she wanted to actively take part in the whole thing? Well, it was rare that someone as lovely as her really wanted to be a fighter. Although... "You know, the second round of the tournament should be starting fairly soon. In case you didn't watch, I did make it to the second round, so perhaps you'd like to come and cheer me on?" He jokingly invited. Honestly, he wouldn't mind her showing up, but he still had a feeling that if she had been bored, she wouldn't come. Then again, she did ask for tips on this, but he couldn't use that to get her to come with him.

Nightmare pondered for a moment, wondering how he could at least help her get used to the festival however. "Well..." He began, an idea having popped up into his head. 'Well first off, it's best to find someone to stick with during the festival, preferably one that you know, or at least intend to get to know. Really, while it can be enjoyed alone, it's really best to have some company, as that's when it really gets fun." He had spent festivals alone and with company before, and while he was flirting with the Twilight Princess a bit, he really did prefer it when he had some company, just made the whole thing that much more enjoyable to him. So he always tried to make sure he was with someone for the four days.

Seized the day. It was a perfectly fitting phrase that described the evening. Perhaps if it was someone else who asked her to dance she may or may not have agreed. Simply because of the fact that she had plenty of reasons to tease men as it stands. They come and go like seasons. Then again she could describe that feeling towards many friends, or associates she made over the time frame of her life. Still, she thought about it more knowing quite well that because she knew him prior to this encounter did play in with agreeing to dance with him. The way the silk fabric felt it was like touching the velvet stars that hung high above their heads. Only dimmed by the lights that lit up the atmosphere of the festival's activities. Midna perked at Nightmare explaining that he made it to the second round of the tournament. So he wasn't just a pretty face~ Now that was interesting to hear. She pursed her lips with a temptress's smile as she spoke, "That sounds... tempting actually." A little tease to get him going wouldn't do any harm now, right? Of course not~ Midna formed a false sense of concern, blatantly pretending to appear troubled, and in need of some help. She released one of her hand so that she may place her index finger on her bottom lip. "You wouldn't happen to know someone who fits those qualities now, do you?" she fluttered her long lashes. Spending the next four days with him would prove definitely interesting as a means of finding only but a suitable company to keep her entertained while she lingered there in the festival.[/style]

He had to admit, he liked the fact that she might come to watch him in the tournament. It was always somewhat pleasant to have a lovely young woman come to cheer you on. At least, that's what he thought. Though she seemed so far like she might have wanted to actually partake in the thing, if her comment on how fun it looked earlier was anything to go by. Though, he was focusing more on what she had just said, what with acting all helpless and that she needed help finding someone trustworthy enough to spend the festival with.

Oh, Nightmare could see where she was going, batting her eyelashes and acting all cute to him. Granted, he was willing to volunteer, but it was good to know that she at least seemed to be hinting that she wanted to spend it with him. Nightmare gave an amused chuckle at this. At least he wasn't completely hopeless when it came to recognizing non verbal cues. "Alright, I get what you're saying. Luckily for you, I don't have anyone either, so sure, I'll keep you company." He accepted what he was assuming was her request. Not that he minded, he figured if he'd spend it with someone, he'd spend it with someone that he would like to get to know a little better.

However, he started to hear a few murmurs that the second round of the tournament was going to be starting soon. Which meant that he would have to get back to the whole thing soon. Then again, he wasn't the first match in the second round, so perhaps he could wait here just a little bit longer, though that would lose him some valuable information. Then again, he was confident in his abilities. He turned to his hopefully would-be companion. "The second round of the tournament's starting. I'm in the second match. Want to come watch with me or would you rather just continue this?" He really didn't mind either way, he was enjoying himself.
