"But..."
Uzaku watched in horror as the mortal continued to dance around the bar, she had lured some of the crowd into a sense of security, even his friend the Tengu. Percy had been the first to become seduced by what the kappa could only guess were the god-pieces powers, and that seduction had spread to...

Oh he knew this one! Memories of kappa-school came flooding back to him (but still not the ones about god-pieces), and he remembered something quite important about the situation! He looked desperately to Mr. Tengu.
"She is a manifestation of Ama no Uzume! We must stop her before she disgraces the entire bar and exposes herself!"

And with this mission of ensuring no nakedness at the front of his mind, Uzaku nodded to his saviour Percy's command and stepped out onto the dancefloor. His one-man waltz made him look drunk and confused, but he had to move swiftly and this was the quickest way! A damp hand tapped Naomi on the shoulder and before she could fully turn around he had already dropped into an half-bowl-emptying bow.
"May I have this dance?"

Naomi started at the touch to her shoulder, rhythm faltering, and spun around only to come awfully face-to-face with someone she could have sworn wanted her dead earlier.  A little bit on a contact high and still tipsy, she went saucer-eyed, lips working silently for a moment.

She looked the kappa up and down, and looked at the rest of the room, clearly unsure of what to do.

The corner of her mouth turned up.  She made sure there was a little room on the crowded floor, and then returned a deep curtsy and proffered her hand like, well, a lady.

"Sir," she said, inclining her head.  This would be interesting.

Mr. Tengu briefly saw Uzaku say something over the pounding tango baseline, and then the kappa left.  Mr. Tengu eyeballed the pair on the dancefloor.  He would only interfere if Uzaku prevented the nice girl from dancing.

Chochin had returned to his rightful place as the dance floor's disco ball, Kasa towing him upwards.  Together, the two friends danced and whirled and threw shiny light flares everywhere.  It was much more colorful than one would expect from the efforts of an ancient lantern and an even older umbrella.  Then again, nakama.  Also, kirin rainbows are as infectious as influenza.

Sparkly sparkly.
Bleh.
