Poppy blinks, turning to Titus in surprise. That question had taken her by surprise. It would be hard to notice, but the slightest indication of a blush was on her cheeks.
"No, I have not. As I've mentioned, I've had a very busy life. Demacian politics do not include dancing. Demacia is a militarized state, and their politicians mostly similar to their state. And I do not visit the noble families."
He doesn't notice Poppy blushing but Titus likes to see how Poppy will react...when he asks her to dance. In case Poppy is adamant and unmovable, his "plan B" will get wine for the table.

"What do you expect? Of course I do not know how to dance."
Poppy shakes her head and takes another sip from her ice water. She had no intention or wish to dance and there was nothing that would change her mind. She was after all knowing for her determination about things.
He points to the dance floor. He puts Poppy in an uncomfortable position but that's the only way to see if she is more than 'boring'. If she says 'no', Titus plans to push it.
The waiter arrives to the table carrying the food. He places the foldable table next to Titus and Poppy and sets it on the foldable table.
"Here you go! For the Iron Ambassador, it's that special Demacian dish you wanted and for the admiral, the Nautilus special!"
The waiter places the respective dishes on their table. Titus looks down on his plate to see a beautifully messed up array of fishes, lobster tail, shrimp, and scallop that make up the Nautilus Special.
"Hope you enjoy your meal, is there anything else?"
If anyone looks around, they seem to be ignorant and unaware of Poppy's presence.
"Come on. You need to know how to dance Poppy. Dancing's like diplomacy. The two must cooperate."
Titus takes the first bite at his seafood special. He widens his eyes a bit. The food is delicious! He quickly takes another bite of the fish before trying out the lobster tail.

"I do not NEED to know how to dance. I have never needed to know how to dance, and I do not see a situation where I will need that skill in the near future either."
Poppy starts to slowly eat through her dish, liking it despite her face still showing no emotion. Either she had learned how to hide her thoughts very well during her years as an Ambassador, or she had few emotions to show.
"Not needing to know how to dance is like not knowing how to talk."
He smiles again, this time raising his eyebrows. Then he looks at the waiter near to the entrance. He gives out a small nod that only the waiter could catch. The waiter moves near to the door where it leads to the wine cellar.

"I have never had a need to know how to dance. That is how my life has been. A smith, a warrior, a diplomat. None of those require dancing. And I have preferred it that way."
As usual, there is no change in Poppy's expression. She simply continues eating her meal slowly.
At this point, Titus begins to understand that Poppy hates the lively atmosphere in the restaurant. He starts to wonder if even making Poppy drunk will make her dance. Maybe dancing and swinging music isn't Poppy's thing.
Titus eats up half of the Nautilus Special. The only food in his plate left are the lobster tail and the shrimp, the two seafood Titus loves.
"Okay, okay. Let's not dance then. But the night is still young. Maybe we can go to a place that you like."

"There aren't any places I can recall here that I really like. I spent 90% of my childhood at the smithy. I know more of Demacia than I do of Bandle City..."
Poppy shrugs and continues eating her meal. She didn't think much of the whole situation, being used to fighting to the death and politics made a date feel quite... mild.

"Perhaps... I should get reacquainted with Bandle City again."
Poppy takes another sip from her ice water, her composure and expression not showing any sign of change or any real emotion. It was clear in her voice though that she had missed Bandle City and was not pleased about how little she knew of her hometown.
