Wait...what was she thinking? Vivi had dressed up during the meeting Selina had held in Hogsmeade for her missing bat.

Okay...time to get inspired...

Taking a much larger hop and a louder clap this time, Kurumi wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggled her way closer to Vivi and ending up kicking in unison with Vivi at the final step. "Help me not feel so awkward about this?" Kurumi whispered as she began to hop again.

Oh, commiseration. Perfect. Vivi turned slightly so that she could still see Cela, but so that she could also see Kurumi, and she pointed at the girl's eyes and then at her own. Easy as.

"Don't worry about anyone in here but Cela and me. Cela already wants to think you're completely awesome, and I couldn't look any more or less ridiculous than you do. So we'll just do this together and pretend no one else is watching. Because they're not dancing as well as us, anyway, and they feel just as self-conscious. More. Because we're awesome." Vivi put her hands up to create a tunnel around her eyes and then started the dance again.

HOP!CLAP (no clapping 'cause of the hands, but MENTAL clapping!). Wiggle, complete with broad grin at Kurumi. Kick.
Shuffle!point... and so on.

HOP!CLAP. WIGGLE. KICK.
Shuffle!pointinggggg!
Tap!Ball. Swwwwwwwwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!
Jazz hands!Step and sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiide!

"One more after this one and we'll put it all together!"

Then she could teach them the silly incantation and explain what they were doing and what intent they needed of course.

More steps? And harder ones? They were well past the point of trying to look cool by now, and Vivi wiggled her fingers at Kurumi and removed her tunnel. One needed both hands for jazz hands.

"Make up words to go along with it to help you remember, and then we'll be able to keep the steps straight when we learn the incantation."
