[He almost stops completely when Kaneda moves closer. What is he-
He misses a few steps when he realizes what Kaneda's doing, watching his feet in surprise. No. There's no way he's doing that. Tetsuo's small attempt at moving around barely qualifies as motion; let alone a dance to follow along to. This beat's got a weird drumline- some of it not quite on beat. There is one thing he could try...
He'd seen this.. shoot, where was it? Some idol program... or something, he can't remember where. One of the few legit bits he actually knew about and was reasonably sure he wouldn't trip himself trying.
Just to make sure Kaneda's doing what he thinks he is, that's all.
Keeping a close eye on their feet, counting in his mind for a while to get himself ready and try to not screw up - ONE two three, one two THREE four, one two ...
At the next four-beat line, he kicks the ball of one foot against the ground instead of shuffling it to make it take a little less time, steps again to put his weight on his other foot and swings his first foot slightly out to tap the floor to his side. Then drags his foot back, ALMOST making the fourth beat on rhythm. Not quite.
Shit. He lost the beat trying that, dammit - he told Kaneda he was no good at this stuff...]
