The Gym, Friday morning

[can_be_more]

Yesterday she was in the common room and at a party. There. Good enough. That was social.

After signing up for classes, Aeryn heads to the gym, which is much more familiar than large crowds of people she won't actually approach unless she knows them. There's no one there yet, so she pulls on her gloves, heads straight to the punching bag, and takes advantage of the fact that there isn't a line for it yet.

And there may or may not have been another vacuum accident. Yeah...


[Totally open for interaction. Will be gone from about 9 am PST for about two hours, but will otherwise be around.]

And that hurts as he staggers back and takes a moment to recover. "Maybe so, but in the end you can walk away from your family if you want. You just have to put up with them long enough."

[can_be_more]

"When's long enough?" she frowns.

"Until you're old enough to be able to live on your own," Cameron replies simply.

[can_be_more]

"So... what's this, then? Isn't that what you're doing now?"

"Not exactly," Cameron shakes his head. "My parents are still paying for this. Generally it's when you stop studying or at least when you move out and have a job to support yourself."

Aeryn shakes her head. Culture shock again. "Do you worry about that?"

Cameron wipes some of the sweat from hs brows and shrugs. "It can be a bit scary to think about changes like that. They're big steps you take in life, but I know what I want so that makes it a whole lot easier."

[can_be_more]

"I suppose it does."

She drops her guard, since they're not really fighting anymore anyway. "Mind if we end it here for today?"

"What? With both of us still standing and very much alive?" Cameron grins slightly.

[can_be_more]

"And relatively uninjured?" she adds, smiling. "You're getting better."

Proud with the compliment, he straightens up a bit and grin. "Yeah, sorry about the knee thing, though. That was stupid..."

[can_be_more]

"It did its job," she shrugs, feeling her knee twinge maybe a little. "Just remember not to incapacitate yourself in the process."

"Got it, no headbutting." Cameron nods and grins.

[can_be_more]

"There is a way to do that, you just have to be careful," she says. "And while Aeryn can do it, her mun doesn't know how."

"I think I'm going to pass up on it," Cameron says quickly, not really looking forward to that particular headache.

[can_be_more]

"Not a bad idea."
