[Hubert nods at that; good, Linhardt's heard the rumors as well. The Goddess Tower will be an excellent place to "sneak" off to. It won't be particularly difficult to make sure someone catches sight of them, after all.
There's no sense in rushing it, though. Looking too eager would only make people suspicious. So they should spend some more time here...
And then Linhardt asks that question and Hubert looks back at him, raising an eyebrow. His initial thought is No, of course not because he isn't one for gatherings like this in the first place, and he'd really rather be anywhere but here. But...
Well, what better to sell their act than one dance? Sure, Hubert hates dancing, but he can do it. Linhardt may be lazy, but as long as they play it off well, it'll be exactly the finishing touch they need to seal their "relationship" in the eyes of their classmates and teachers. Considering that members of the Church are here as well, that will only benefit Lady Edelgard. No one would suspect Hubert is still poking into things he shouldn't if they all think he's busy doting on his "boyfriend".
With that as the obvious conclusion, it should be an easy enough idea to propose. Linhardt may balk a bit, but it will be worth it. It's just one dance.
It's just one dance. So why exactly does the thought of it make him feel so antsy?]
Perhaps we should dance once before we leave. What do you think?
[The question is easy enough to pose, but he's gone back to staring out at the crowd as he drums the fingers of one hand on the table.]
