The same reason any of us have our names, I guess. Even if it doesn't look like it at first, we all identify or have aspects of our names one way or another. [But that's not for them to elaborate on.]
[ She shakes her head. She's not bad at it. She knows how to keep a beat without missing a step, and she's naturally graceful, but it's nothing like how she is with music. ]
I was taught how to do some traditional dances and I can waltz, but it's not something I'd say I'm an expert at. Whatever was expected of a daughter of a rich family, I can do.
[This is so dumb but Love is actually very charmed? It's easy to follow Nonon's lead and move in time with the music and in spite of everything she's laughing just a little. She's clearly enjoying herself as they spin their way around the room.]
Beautiful! It's been a while since anyone could keep up no matter what I'm doing.
It's still pretty early in the game, I'll admit. [But Love's quick to switch to the lead to spin them just once.] But just how many mysteries are you planning to keep to yourself?
Stick with me and we'll make it happen. I hope. [There's a grin in that tone.] I can't tell you everything about me right away...but with enough time it'll be way easier. Promise you'll share, too?

...you mean how we came to be gods?

[ Somehow, she feels like she has to go about this in steps. Talking to gods with rules for masks is frustrating. ]
Yeah. Was it your choice or were you chosen?

It's a dance studio, right? Dance with me.

Nonon bolts up in delight, giggling with unbridled glee. ]
Yes! [ She claps her hands before striding up to Love, an almost spring to her steps. She bows before them, offering her hand. ]
I'll lead. ♫
no subject
With reckless abandon, Love takes Nonon's hand and laughs as well, falling into step to let Nonon lead.]
Show me what you've got! [Love is VERY EXCITED. Hardly anyone actually dances when they visit her, so this is a treat.]
no subject
[ She grins. She's shorter, but her boots have such high heels that it'll make up enough of the difference.
Time to Once Upon a Dream Love. Nonon is all grace and smooth with her footwork. There will be no stepping on toes today. ]

If I decide to follow someone, I keep up no matter what. [ Her delivery is smooth and doesn't miss a beat. ]
If you want to dance the night away, I won't falter.

It's a force of habit. ♥ But... if the day ever comes that you can take your mask off for me, I'll tell you a secret or two.

[ It's no longer a secret at home, but she's spent more years hiding what she was doing with her friends than out in the open with it. ]
It's the only way to move forward.

[And they dance and we can probably wrap this one ♥]
