[Olivia is looking very uncomfortable on the screen, not even making eye contact with it. She looks like she wants to say something, but she doesn't. It takes a few more seconds for her to start speaking.]

I, I was wondering if... [Oh no it's too much. Think of all the people that are watching her! She ends up covering the camera, so only her voice can be heard now.] I'm sorry, but I was wondering if anyone here likes to dance? I'm not very good, but maybe practicing together will help with the, umm... touching we have to do.

[There's an awkward pause before she speaks again, and it's much faster.] I have something to do I should go now!

[Her body language is still awkward, but she's also trying to be polite. ] It's nice to meet you, Mr. Nails. [She doesn't say anything for a few seconds, then her face looks a bit panicked. She forgot to give hers! How careless of her She must look really rude now.] Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Olivia.

[She looks around, seeing there aren't many people around. That's actually a relief, and it puts her at ease just a little.] I'm glad you wanted to practice dancing. I really need to practice to get better.

[Badou waited in silence for her own answer too. After that awkward silence, Badou opens his mouth to finally ask before she finally gives him her name. He closes his mouth, blinking, before smiling all over again and lowering his hand. Aw.] It's fine. Good meetin' you.

[He scopes out the lobby himself after her. Ah, she's looking around for an audience. Thankfully there isn't much of one around. With their eyes met again, he gives a nod, brows raised.]

Yeah, no problem. What's it for, if you don't mind me asking? Sounds like you've got some concert to put on.

Oh- And, uh, you wanna dance out here? [He gestures to the open area nearby the elevators. It looks like she might want to, though Badou might have to overcome his slight embarrassment; he's used to dancing in Daniella's room, where no one could see.]
