( it's not a situation shepard is particularly happy with, but she's capable of maintaining her cool in stressful times - she's worked an undercover mission or a dozen, she knows how it all works. antsy without a gun in her hand, but she knows she's got her biotics, and she can snap a few necks with her hands, and she's got a piece still strapped to her inner thigh, just in case. you can't ever say the commander goes into a mission unprepared. well - maybe you can. she didn't take dancing lessons in preparation, but she has a feeling she'd be even worse at this if she had. the irony of being the best sharpshooter in known space and simultaneously the worst dancer the human race has ever seen is not lost on her. usually she's a good sport about it. usually -
she isn't trying to impress, and she dances alone.
tony is being a very good sport. it's obvious that he's danced a tango or two in his life, and certainly knows the right ways to move his feet, where to put his hands, how to hold himself. shepard does her best to follow suit, but. tony's feet are probably going to be bruised regardless - maybe his shins, too. she apologizes after every collision even still, eyes stuck downwards while she tries to focus on not doing it again.
dipping. her fingers dig in to tony's shoulders a little, before her feet stop, arms sliding tightly around his neck. )
