Copacabana Palace, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Thursday - Evening

[momslilassassin]

There was a slight chance of thunderstorms tonight, but when it was still practically 80 outside in February, was a little rain really going to ruin it?

It might even wash some of the glitter away. Well, probably not. No power on Earth was strong enough to wash glitter away. More than half of spring break was over, Fandom. Get out there and make some memories! Or drink-fueled regrets. Rio could accomodate either.

The nice thing about the injury? It was easy to convince Miley to come with Dave to things like the soccer game.

Apparently he just had to make sure she didn't injure anyone in a soccer riot.... No, he wouldn't stop making jokes about that in his head either.

"So this is the one with the kicking," Miley said, just to make sure.

"Yep. And no hands, except for the goalie," Dave said.

"That sounds safe!" Miley said with false enthusiasm. "Harder to... break a nail!"

"I'm going to guess that you've never seen a soccer match," Dave said. "It's okay, it's a very easy sport to get into."

"I might've seen one once!" Miley offered helpfully. A beat. "Nope. Nope. That was hockey."

"No, you can tell a hockey game because it's really not worth watching," Dave said, suppressing his natural urges to love any sport on ice. "Soccer, on the other hand. There's a sport." A sport beloved in a country on the other end of the continent from Canada.

"Tell me about it," Miley agreed. "Hockey's the worst ever. I broke my elbow once!"

Sadly, this was canon.

"I don't think I can even make jokes anymore. Now I just have to be concerned at how often you and your friends get injured," Dave mused.

"So you don't want to know about the time with Jackson and the full-body cast?" No, Miley. He did not.

"... Oh, I want to say no, but it'll kill me if I don't ask what you were doing at the time," Dave said.

"I was shopping," Miley said primly. "Nowhere near the scene."

So HA, Dave.

"What was Jackson doing?" Dave asked.

And did she put him up to it?

"He was playing with exercise equipment clearly designated for professional dancers only," Miley reported.

...which she had left out on purpose to try to get him in trouble. Whoops?

It was probably for the best that Dave didn't hear that part.

"Professional dancers have their own exercise equipment?" Dave asked. "Do you have to be a certain kind of dancer for that kind of treatment?"

Re: Rio de Janeiro - Soccer Match & Stadium Tour [Thursday night]

"Not tap," she clarified hastily.

A beat.

"Sorry."

"Oh well. We get noisy shoes, so that makes up for a lot," Dave said, giving a shrug. And then wincing ever so slightly. Stupid shoulder.
