Modest Dancer

The **Modest Dancer** is a Seasonal Spirit from the Season of Performance who offers the  Duet Dance Action. The Modest Dancer is found to the right side of the Village Theater behind a building. The collectibles offered by this Spirit are a  Mask, an  Outfit, a  Hairstyle and  Music Sheet 28.

## Memory

The Modest Dancer Spirit can be found in the Village Theater, to the player's immediate right if entering from Village of Dreams. The Modest Dancer can be found atop a slope on the right side of the area, nestled between two buildings at the very top of the slope. This Spirit is a standard memory quest with 9 memory fragments, with a 15-minute overall time limit.

As you relive its memory, you can see the Modest Dancer sneak behind a row of buildings towards a small clearing. They make sure no one is following them, and once they are alone, they are seen performing different dance moves. Suddenly, the Forgetful Storyteller finds the Modest Dancer and approaches the Dancer to say hello. Startled, the Dancer rushes out of the clearing. The Storyteller follows the Dancer, and takes them by the sleeve to encourage the shy Dancer to continue their routine behind the row of buildings. The two walk back to the clearing, Dancer seeming more reluctant than the Storyteller. The Forgetful Storyteller attempts to get the Dancer to open up, and the two continue the dance routine together.

At the end of the memory, the Modest Dancer uses the blush expression in response to Storyteller's request to dance, and the two spirits dance as a duet.

## Friend Action

*Note: While this Spirit can be found in the Village Theater, the upgrade to the "Duet Dance Action" Friend Action will not be available for those who missed the Season or those who did not purchase the Season Pass until the Spirit returns as a Traveling Spirit.*

The  Duet Dance Action Friend Action has 2 levels.

Duet Dance Action Level 1Duet Dance Action Level 2
* Level 1 will make your avatar step forward with their right foot and open both arms in front of your friend. When your friend accepts your offer to dance, you will both step from side to side, crossing one foot in front of the other as you do so. Your arms will drift and wave in the direction opposite to where you step, all in time to rhythmic background music.
* Level 2 will make your avatar step forward with their left foot, lean back slightly, and open both arms in front of your friend. When your friend accepts your offer to dance, you will both step forward with your left foot and kick back with your right foot opposite from one another. When you kick back with your left foot, your friend will step forward with their right, and vice versa. With each step, you will swing your arms from one side to the other. Rhythmic background music also plays during this Level, but has a quicker tempo than the music heard in Level 1.

Like any Extended Two-Player Abilities, this ability can be upgraded by opening your friend's Friendship Menu. To reach the 13th node before the ability, it will cost you 57  and 16 . (See Friendship Menu to view the entire Friendship Tree). Unlocking the Level 1 ability will cost you 20 . After unlocking Level 1, it will cost you 22  more to upgrade to Level 2.

On February 27, 2023, after being asked "If Performance gang went on tour in an RV, who's driving?", Ash mentioned that "I would only entrust Modest Dancer or Performance Guide to be behind the wheel, I feel like Dancer would be the safest driver but would maybe be a bit anxious about driving a big RV :SkyLOL: So maybe Performance Guide".
