"Perhaps a bit of both," Locke answers quietly, on the topic of their imperfect memories. He suspects that recalling every endless moment of his time before would drive him mad. Then again, that insinuates that he is not mad already.
And if you ever understand too well, you will either hate me, or fear me.
He almost says it.
But the way L'aire spake, it seemed as though they were agreeing on some mutual understanding. While Locke cannot imagine that her situation directly mirrors his own, he is not so arrogant to think that his darkness is truly unique. Who knows what burden her heart may bear?
To seal that understanding, Locke adds a tilt of his brow, and his hint of a smile. He lifts the newly arrived tumbler as a silent and impromptu toast that they accept and respect each others' boundaries, and shall not push.
Eyebrows raise in thought at L'aire's direction in topic. 'Kind of dancing'... now there is something he has not given much thought. At least not toward his personal preference. There was dancing, and there was not dancing. He is moderately accomplished at it in general, and feels awkward standing around watching others do it without him.
"The energetic kind," he answers simply. Aware how incomplete of an answer it is. "Slow dancing makes me feel like a great, awkward old tree. Swaying lumber in a breeze. I suppose I am not very comfortable with it."
He is also not accustomed to learning the names to the things he gets half-cocked and copies others playing at in bars. It feels somehow very silly to admit that. Talking to a performer from Cirque du Soleil, he feels quite out of his league.
