May I Have This Dance?

As a detective, Enigma knows that those of power and prestige are most at ease when attending galas, and other high-end parties. And if you want to learn about someone, you have to engage them in their element. So it was that he learned to be as comfortable in a ballroom as he is in a classroom.

And as a teacher, he would be remiss if he didn’t pass those same skills on to his students. If an instructor at the Magistrum possesses the necessary qualifications, they can register to teach a course or run a seminar on whatever subject they wish, within reasonable restrictions.

Here we see him teaching one of his semi-regular crash courses on ballroom etiquette, culminating in a lesson on how to dance. Ordinarily, he’ll ask for a volunteer to serve as his dance partner. However, if a class is feeling particularly shy, he’ll conjure an illusory duplicate to do the job.

It serves no purpose to single out one student when there’s no need to.

This piece, from one of LittleBadWolf‘s YCHs in November of 2021, aptly illustrates both Enigma’s teaching acumen as well as his grace and finesse on the dance floor.
