One of the most important things in the training of a Time Agent was learning how to act at court and especially how to dance. Their role necessarily tended to involve having to gain influence with important people, and the normal methods of seduction wouldn't work there. They had to be able to seduce from a distance.
Jack, in whom seduction practically oozed from every pore quite naturally, had thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of learning to hone and refine it. He was also naturally musical and dancing came easily to him. It was one major reason why he'd been picked for this job.
His hand was steady and reassuring on her lower back, effortlessly guiding her round the floor, avoiding collisions and even putting in a few extra twists and spins for fun.
"You do rather draw the eye, your Majesty," he murmured, with complete truth. Victoria, so young and vibrant, almost radiated energy and hope for her country.
He needed to make sure she had the chance to fulfil that promise.
He grinned at her enquiry about his travels, slowing their movement somewhat as she stepped in closer. "It was a long trip," he admitted, also with complete truth. "But worth it for getting to be here at the start of something so great. Your reign has such huge potential ahead of it. It would be dreadful if anything were to get in the way of that."
