One of my pet peeves after having gotten very into swing dance as an aroace is seeing videos of people swing dancing or really doing any type of partner dance and over half the comments just being stuff like “how are they not in love😳” or “friends🤨” like please free yourselves, you can have a lot of chemistry and fun dancing with someone and it doesn’t have to be anything more than that!! Just fun!!! I’m not saying a little bit of lighthearted friendly love can’t be involved but it’s not always that deep, it’s just having fun!!

'samba music intensifies'
I've been going to a lot of ballroom dance comps lately and I cannot stop imagining my favs dancing along as well. Samba has to be one of my favorite dances and I am dying to learn it. It's just so high energy and most of all it looks so damn fun. I couldn't resist drawing Ed and Winry dancing as well :D
Some more headcanons about the fma crew:
Al likes the contact involved so he likes the standard and nightclub styles best
Ed usually leads but if Winry wants to lead well he's not going to say no, but he is more experienced in leading. The two usually dance Smooth or Latin and they are terrifying in quickstep
Roy only knows nightclub dances until Riza forced him to learn other styles for military events, but he absolutely kills it in West Coast Swing
Riza knows Standard best, though she has less experience in most of the other styles, she's a really good follow and can follow just about anything. She's also a really good lead for Standard and by some extension Smooth
Ling, Lan Fan, and Mei are newer to ballroom dance (sorry guys i may be chinese but idk any chinese dances) but once introduced, well Ling is a diehard for the dramatics and LanFan is usually willing to comply. They start off learning Smooth, while Mei jumps straight into nightclub with Al

can't wait to do some Mid-West swing at my best friend's wedding
(midwest swing being when someone who only knows west coast swing dances with someone who only knows east coast swing to questionable white person wedding music)

what kind of dancing do you do? (I dance as well!)
ooh fellow dancer??? nice!! i did almost a decade of ballet (and will be getting back into it soon, i think), and then I've also done uh nightclub two-step, east coast swing, west coast swing, jitterbug, tango, waltz, and... foxtrot. i think that's all of them. oh wait no contra and square dancing too, occasionally. what do you dance 👀?

//thinking of Bonely’s Bistro in the Last City and genuinely wondering how the citizens would react to a guy basically trying to bring back 1930’s swing and jazz while also guardian-proofing his place so he can give actual pre-traveler dance lessons to guardians and citizens.

I'm going to my friend's wedding this weekend and I'm so excited! I'm so happy that he found someone who suits him and that I get to drive there with my family and that there will be swing dancing and that I get an excuse to wear my purple dress and fancy jewelry.

i like to think that leo made everybody contribute to a music playlist that he played on shuffle 24/7 on the argo ii, because this leads to fun scenarios where festus is singing 'all i do is win win win no matter what' in dj khaled's voice as the seven lose a fight against a sea monster very badly

Ough I now really want to post some videos of me west coast and east coast swinging for funsies because I really like social dancing and even though I’m still a baby beginner at the tip of the iceberg, I wanna show what I can do but there’s obviously other people in them and while I would expect the videos to only get a couple likes by some mutuals and zero spread, I still feel weird posting videos of other people in them without permission😅
