The gym, after second period

[can_be_more]

Stepping into the gym, Aeryn thinks it might have been a good idea to get down here more this week. She has enough faith in her own capabilities, but still, it never hurts to be prepared.

She pulls her gloves on, and starts hitting the punching bag. Too bad it can't fight back.

Lee comes in a few minutes later for a quick workout. He waves and smiles politely at Aeryn. "Good to see you!" he says.

[can_be_more]

Aeryn nods back with a "Hey," sending another hard punch to dig into the bag.

"Keeping busy?" he asks, starting a series of stretches.

"I do my best," she says, and this time it's another kick into the side of the bag, followed by a sharp punch from her left.

He watches her curiously for a moment and then says, "of course you do," before moving on to crunches.

Aeryn glances over at him, wondering if there's something to that that she's missing, then goes for the bag again. It would have been a good punch to the throat if the bag had a throat.

After Speech, Isabel went back to her room and changed into workout gear. She wasn't sure if Aeryn would remember their conversation or not but she figured it was time to hit the gym anyway.

Aeryn backs away from the punching bag, noticing Isabel when she arrives. "You made it," she greets her.

Isabel was impressed. If the bag had been alive, it would have been curled up on the floor in the fetal position by now. "Wow, you're good."

[can_be_more]

"Have to be," she says, stepping away from it. "At least it keeps people off my back."

"I can see why. Looks like it would hurt to be on the receiving end of one of those punches." She started to stretch, she wasn't sure what they'd do but starting out without warming up probably wasn't that great of an idea.

"That's the point," Aeryn nods. "Keep them from hurting you by hurting them more. I go a lot easier when I spar, by the way."

Isabel looked up from where she was sitting on the floor stretching. "That's good to know the mun already gets her ass handed to her on a regular basis when she spars in RL."

She stretched her arms over her head one final time and then got to her feet. "Where do I start?"

Finding Aeryn gone when he wakes up, John changes, does an errand, and heads down to the gym.

He makes his presence known by dancing behind the punching back and smiling at her.

"Did your laundry this morning."

"

[can_be_more]

"Did you," she says with a little smile. Part of her is relieved it's really hard to mess up black clothing. Not that she knows from experience.

"I made one small, small mistake," he says, gesturing with his thumb and pointe finger to illustrate a small mistake.

[can_be_more]

Figures. "What did you do?"

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"I was trying to bleach something and some of it must've accidentally spilled on one of your shirts," he explains. "I didn't notice so, when I washed your shirt, the bleach set. Now, one of your shirts has lots of little bleach spots all over it."

[can_be_more]

She eyes him carefully. "That's it?"

Bridge wanders down to the gym.

Grabbing a wooden practice sword, he starts working through some drills. It's been months since his Weapons class, so he figures a little extra practice might be a good idea.

Aeryn might watch a little, seeing as how she's never actually seen Bridge fight at all.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Hey Aeryn," Bridge says, moving as if to block an invisible opponent.

[can_be_more]

"Hey," she says back, wondering if there's someone there that she can't see. It could be possible.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"This probably looks really silly, doesn't it?" Bridge says, slashing at the air.

[can_be_more]

She nods. "Is there a reason for the invisible person?"
