[When Dion pivots them in the air, Joshua suspects what's coming - and indeed, soon enough the broad wings of Bahamut unfurl right there in the Colosseum-turned-ballroom. Joshua, too, holds onto Dion a little tighter in preparation for their escape. Thus does he have ample opportunity to admire the strength and beauty of both those wings and the prince himself before they lightly touch down once more.
As, apparently, does the audience, as many of them applaud and cheer for the two of them as they land.]
We appear to have made quite a stir - and no few admirers. Shall we give them a grand finale?
[This sort of attention is nothing new to a couple of Dominants whose people have looked to them for inspiration since they were children, of course, but ever since the days when Clive would read to him aloud or perform scenes from popular plays to entertain him when he was bedridden, Joshua has always had a certain appreciation for the theatrical.
So in the final stretch of their dance, with only a few couples remaining, he pushes through his fatigue to lead with renewed vigor and flair. He even summons some iridescent wisps of flame to follow their movements. By the end, there's no question who's won this competition, as Joshua tries to catch his breath amidst the crowd's wild approval.]
