She wishes there were another way, but this is her best option at the moment. As the old proverb goes, Beggars can’t be choosers. It helps that this man is as handsome as he is.
“Alright. Partners then?” He nods. “Partners.”She hesitates a moment. She knows how to dance well enough, but it has always been in night clubs, parties, and bars. She isn’t sure how well that party girl style will go over here. Having to do it nude certainly doesn’t help. She finally decides on something feminine and sensual but still modest, her go to dance when she is curious about a man but still needs to learn more. It doesn’t take long for people to take notice. A modest crowd soon gathers around them. They clearly aren’t used to seeing moves from 21st century earth. Some are amused, but others are curious and some outright dazzled. She does her best to ignore the ones who seem to enjoy it on more than a platonic level. It doesn’t take long for the tin plate to be littered with coins. Most are bronzes, but a few are silver, and even occasionally gold.After some time has passed, the sun has finally fallen, and the crowds have mostly dispersed. The plaza lay almost empty, with the last few straggling vendors closing their shops. The young man is grinning like a kid on Christmas morning. “I’ve never known any creature, let alone an elven maiden, to dance in such a way. But whatever it is, it’s wonderful. We are going to make a very good team.”“Th-th-thanks” she shivers, hugging her body. Now that she has ceased dancing, she feels the cold again. Although it’s much warmer than where the wagon found her, it’s still uncomfortably chilly for someone naked. “Since we’re partners, I don’t suppose you have a place I could stay. I don’t really have anywhere else to go.”
