Easy visibly balked at Mallaidh's declaration - as though she couldn't imagine there was someone out there who'd never sang or danced, and especially not a girl with such a moniker or such a graceful form. But she swallowed back the surprise and no small amount of pity and said, "It's easy. I can teach you."
It was on the tip of her tongue to follow that up with, " ... if you want." But she didn't, because it seemed an incredible shame to her that a girl like Mallaidh had never put her mind and body toward the finer arts. Doubly so since she'd had a mother who would sing to her, who had thought to call her shadow dancer. "My dad used to sing to us all the time," she said, and neither of them knew that her father had once sang to Malliadh's mother. They would never know. But the esteem Grayday had felt toward Lotte had a chance, in that moment, to be carried on through Easy and Mallaidh, and somehow, the Morningside girl felt the weight of it stirring in the air.
