Se was almost a trainee, and she was happy, "Hey GIYS, can I join? I think I'm late..." she told them, lightly trotting over to Xerxes. She was 5 moons, so she guessed she was quite young.

"I tend to like energetic dances, things that allow dancing in pairs, but also encorage individual dance, or to dance in groups of more than two. I also like rungs that allow me to be myself without following a specific form." Ashia admitted quietly. The things she liked normally didn't seem to appear much in proms for sure, and usually no one tried something obsurd like solo dancing or square dancing. "i did a waltz or something like that last year, but I didn't like it."

(I had been ninjaed and didn't even notice)

Nodding to the younger female, the copper-gold female gave unspoken permission for Anabelle to join the small group which had formed. This was a party really, and anyone should be allowed to join in. That didn't mean anyone should do it all, catnip was not the best especially for younger cats, but there were many other things. Since she had been talking to him originally, Ashia addressed Xerxes' response by voice the first. "You'll definitely see it sometime," she promised confidently. "It might not be today, but that depends on what kind of music plays, among other things." the Abyssinian did not state weather she actually would dance or not yet, there was in a way a particular mood for it that she had to posses.

"I don't know what style to call it but it meets these criteria. No two-leg voices, syncopated, or rhythmic, Maybe not fast, but full of the potential for energy." Ashia explained with more enthusiasm than which which she usually spoke. Many styles of music could fit this criteria, and ashia chose by individual piece rather than by style.

(I am so very music illiterate. I had to look up the song)

Ashia let out a slight laugh. "Not at all." that melody is so linear, I can't feel a thing in it." the Abyssinian scoffed in a playful way. "What good is energy without change.?" to Ashia's ears the important things in the music repeated themselves over and over without going someplace, without creating a flow. it was not something inspiringly danceable.

(what I focus on in a song rarely has to do with the melody of the lyrics, but the accompanying melodies around them If those don't catch my interest, I may not line the piece)

Ashia picked out a part opening melody from Cique Du Solel's Alegria. It was a part before the words in that piece began. She only repeated it twice without going into the part where the lyrics were before stopping. the song did actually go on, but for her just that part had enough mystery to be compelling.

(Nope. I did say I am mostly ignorant. When Lyrics do matter to me, the matter a ton, but they have to really stand out for me to even care to notice them. I am a fan of music artists/composers Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Laurie Anderson(strongly because of lyrics in this case), Lots of things that no one hears about.)

"That one is kind of dance inviting." Ashia admitted softly, "If I was dancing to something like that, I would try to make my movement tell a story." she went on to explain. A song like that deserved a really expressive dance, not something that fits but seems ransom, or something silly.

"Of course you can," Ashia stated, glad that they were now talking about a subject which she was actually better at. "Certain music, paired with highly representational motions can do it, but because of the content of the song, meaning can be put onto the dance through it," Depending on how interested in it Xerxes was, Ashia might show something of what she meant. It would depend on other factors as well, like if there was room in the floor nearby to try something.
