Cheshire was drying himself off after a bath with the ladies, his fellow concubines who didn't mind bathing with a male. In fact, they like him because of his cute ears and tail. Cheshire made sure to wear a mask on at least the lower part of his face because he doesn't want to scare these ladies.

"South Medina has great belly dancing, too."

"No, I like their Tango more."

"I bet Chester can do the tango, he's from South Medina."

Chester scoffs at them as he puts on his jewelry. He's wearing a comfortable red skirt with a huge slit at the sides, and since he has nothing to cover he just draped a red Saree over his chest. He tells them, "Honestly, I'd be purposely stepping on my partner's shoes. I like dancing alone, makes me feel less short."

"You dance really well, that's why Master Spade likes you..." a girl compliments.

I didn't dance much, I just copied. One might say I'm a... copycat. Cheshire giggles at his own joke, but then masks it with, "I'm lucky he's a hips-person and not a chest person. I have nothing to shake up here."

"I have chunky gold necklaces you can borrow so you can shake it," one excitedly hops over to retrieve said gold necklace.

But, the doors burst open and the twins come barging in much to the ladies' excitement. Cheshire turns around to ignore them, putting the gold necklace on. He thought the twins won't pick him, but they went straight for the new concubine and grabbed him by the arm.

"Wha—"

"Shut up, you're coming with us!" Rouge smelled like alcohol. Cheshire looks to the ladies for help, but they naively supports him having fun with the twins.

"Ow! Rouge!" He yells upon being brought up to their bedroom and pushed to the center of the room. Azure was sitting on a carpet drinking some wine while Rouge sits on a sofa, leaning back with legs nonchalantly spread. Cheshire stands before them, nervous and angry.

"What the fùck do you want—"

"Go ahead," Rouge says, suddenly throwing gold coins at a confused Cheshire. "Dance for us. Aren't you a concubine?"

"I'm not dancing for you! If you want to see someone dance on a pole, go roast a pig!"

Rouge tells his brother, "This concubine doesn't know how to do his job. We should get a better one."

The competitive Cheshire narrows his eyebrows, and the drunk Rouge smirks at him. "Fùck off, Rouge."

"Why don't you get fùcked, Ches?" Rouge cheekily replied, drinking more wine straight from the bottle while he satisfies his eyes with the image of their childhood sweetheart. "I want to see you dance like you did as you killed 38 men in one room. That was hot."

"Want to be the 39th?" Cheshire glares at him.

"Forgive my brother for not taking your interests into account, Cheshire. Allow me to make it more enjoyable for you, too..." Azure, however, calmly stands up from the carpet and with his powers, manifests hundreds of sharp ice shards that floats all around Cheshire. After which, he makes his way to the sofa and sits down with his brother, patiently waiting for a dance.

Azure... always the smart ass... "Are you expecting me to try hitting you while dancing? You made these, you can easily dodge."

"Let me make it fair," Rouge calls out, burning each shard and eventually turning them into steel. This is how they've been useful to Spade; with their powers together, they can make weapons stronger than steel.
