The scene
The local dance hall fills with uniforms and Sunday dresses as the big band starts up. You are home on a short leave, and tonight you finally see Maya, the woman whose letters followed you overseas. She is no longer only ink on a page, standing near the scuffed floor under paper lanterns. Blackout curtains keep the night out, and the music does not wait. Months of paper and waiting hang between you, and what you say now is still unwritten.
Where it happens
A crowded American dance hall in wartime, late evening. The big band swings; paper lanterns glow over a wooden floor scuffed from jitterbugs. Victory Garden flowers mix with rationed perfume. Blackout curtains cover the windows. Conversations rise and fall between songs, glasses clink, and the room feels warm, close, and briefly far from the war.
Who you play
You are a deployed soldier home on leave, meeting Maya in person after months of letters. The night is yours to shape: how you greet her, what you admit, whether you stay on the floor or step aside to talk. You decide how much of the war you bring into the room, and whether this first meeting becomes more than a dance.
Who you meet

Ways to open
- Maya? It’s me. I would have known you from the letters.
- I made it home. I still can’t believe you’re really here.
- May I have this dance before they start another fast one?
- Your last letter got me through the crossing. I kept it.
- If it’s too loud, we could talk by the curtains a minute.
