*Madame Giry cleared the stage with a single banging of her cane on the boards. People scattered and she nodded to Monsieur Reyer for the music to begin. Standing to one side, she swept her hand in a gesture towards centre stage, inviting Aimery to begin.*

((Forgive me for lacking in technical terms and descriptions. I am not a dancer, male or otherwise. I'm still researching ballet in general.))
*Aimery smiled and bowed to Giry and then to Reyer. Despite his apparent youth, his body proved amazingly well trained and strong. His audition routine began simply but escalated in complexity as his body warmed and became more limber. He tried to include any advanced step he could think of, trying his best to prove his worth. Although he may have seemed distractable in the hall, on stage he was completely focused. When his body finally came to a rest, he simply bowed to both again and returned to Giry, scribbling another note, which he then handed to her*
I can also perform lifts if you would like to seem them. If one of your corps would oblige me. Or was that acceptable? Would you like to see anything else?

*Madame Giry gave no sign of her opinion, but inwardly she was astounded at the boy's capability, given his lack of proper training and warm-up, it seemed.* "That will not be necessary, Monsieur," *she said shortly.* "I will speak with the managers and then I will inform you of where you stand. Thank you for your time." *she said, making a note on her papers.* ((Gotta go catch a bus. Back in a couple hours, maybe? Roads are icy, still, dammit.))

Well, if you don't have it, you simply don't have it. You did your best. Mother would be proud.*Aimery nodded and bowed in gratitude to Madame Giry. He had the sudden realization that the discussion with the managers may not be for some time, so he scribbled down one last note.* I don't have a residence yet, but I will be available in Notre Dame, whenever the decision has been made. Thank you so much for your time and allowing my rude interruption of your rehearsal. I hope we are able to meet again soon.((Sorry about the bad weather. I hope to be on as much as i can today, but I might get called off for a bit. Hope to talk to you soon. )

*Diamanta stepped forward her eyes still amazed at the dancer's skill.Noticing his movement from the stage she walked slowly towards him and touched him lightly on the arm.* Y-you dance like nothing I have ever seen!

*Aimery turned to her with a grateful smile and bowed gracefully to her, then added on his pad*
You are too kind. Thank you for your compliment. I am Aimery. Might I have the pleasure of your name?

*Diamanta read the pad quickly. Not wishing to question his lack of voice she simply smiled back.* Diamanta, I work in costumes.Pleased to meet you.*She held out her hand.*

*he took her hand and kissed it gently, then held it to his heart, hoping she would understand that he was pleased to meet her too. He then released it and wrote:*
The pleasure is mine. Are you busy? I can let you get back to your work. I would not wish to get you in trouble.
*he gazes into her eyes with honest concern*

*Diamanta shook her head.* No, not at all. I have been working all day and needed a break. I like to come in here and watch the rehearsals.*She blushed.* I would love to be able to dance but my family always said I was born with two left feet.

*a bit startled, he quickly looks at her feet, then figures it out. Then he adds*
If it is not too rude of me, perhaps you can show me around this amazing opera house. I'm afraid I might get lost on my own. That is, if it will not take you too long. I would greatly appreciate the help.
*smiles*
