[ Derek follows her gesture to look over at the other table. For all he's heard about Oliver in passing, he's never seen the guy. He's not really sure what he'd been expecting to see, but he supposes objectively he can see what Kara would be attracted to. He makes a mental note to maybe meet him at some point before turning his attention back to Kara. ]

Well that's good. And I don't think she'll mind at all. Your date won't mind you stealing me for a dance or two, I hope?

[ Smiling a little, Derek starts to get to his feet. For someone who doesn't actually enjoy dancing all that much, he seems to be doing a lot of it, here, but maybe that's a good thing. Maybe stepping out of his comfort zone more often is good for him. It probably is. He likes to think that if his sister were still alive, she'd tell him it was, anyway, and she'd encourage all of this.

Derek offers Kara a hand. ]

Shall we, then?
