Gym Open Early

[blonde-elle.livejournal.com]

According to the information packet the gym facilities were for everyone. Elle rolled out of bed, washed her face and put her hair into a ponytail and went down to get some quality time with the StairMaster before the crowd came in.

The gym did get crowded, right?

[ooc: open for everyone! And now in the right spot!]

Tyler could not wait to get back on a training regimen. He found the gym first thing in the morning -- it wasn't like he needed much sleep -- and, nodding a greeting to the blonde chick, started warming up in preparation for some weight-lifting.

She looked like she was concentrating very hard on walking up imaginary steps, but when she saw him she flashed a bright smile and waved enthusiastically. "Good morning!"

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Morning," Tyler said. "Don't fall off."

Not that it wouldn't be kind of fun to watch if she did. But still.

Isabel hasn't managed to get into vacation mode, so she's still getting up early. When she got to the gym she nodded at the new people and then started to stretch out on the mats.

Alanna yawned at Isabel in greeting then shook her head and actually muttered a good morning.

There were other people in the gym already. Talk about confusing.

With a general "Yo", he headed over to the weight lifting machines.

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

"Yo," Tyler agreed. He finished stretching and went over to a leg-press machine, then looked at it for a second, assessing how the gears interlocked. "Is there anything tricky about these? I would hate to break anything on my second day."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Nope, pretty self explanatory. I've never seen the gym equipment act up before," Cameron replied. "There's a first for everything of course."

[blonde-elle.livejournal.com]

"Yo!" she replied in a chipper voice. He looked confused, sort of, or maybe lost. Or maybe foreign. Or maybe from another dimension, like Elizabeth had told her. At the thought she smiled wider and waved.

Cameron waved back. Yeah, he waved at a teacher. Then again, he played tag with the principal so it evened out.

Rory waved from where she was stretching in a corner.

Alanna was not a morning person. Hence the huge scowl as she headed over to the punching back and began to stretch. Faithful jumped to his usual perch on a window sill.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Morning," Isabel said cautiously to Alanna. And then, more cheerfully, "Hi Faithful."

Parker got in fairly early, and started working the bag, kick-punch, strike-block, kick, kick, punch.

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler watched from his spot on the treadmill. "Nice form," he offered.

He may not have been entirely talking about the boxing.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Parkie," Cameron greeted after Tyler left.

[blonde-elle.livejournal.com]

As she moved from the StairMaster to the treadmill she smiled and waved at the pretty brunette. Just like everywhere else, the gym seemed like it was a great place to meet people.

494 was used to regular workouts, and though he was trying to get away from all things Manticore, he wasn't going to slack too much on the one thing he actually could thank them for - his body.

So first it was stretching, and then maybe onto the bags. But stretching, yes.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

Parker was still working the bag, but starting to slow down, concentrating on her punches. She nodded to the new guy, and gave him an appreciative once-over. "Hey."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory, who was also stretching, discreetly admired the view.

You know. Discreetly for Rory. Which was about as subtle as a dog wearing sunglasses selling pencils.

Joxer wandered down to the gym, ready to prove his mightiness to some new people.

He walked straight over to the sparring equipment, and made a big deal of laughing.

"You people pad yourselves to fight? What's the fun in that?" he boasted.

Of course, he was still wearing his armor. But logic plus Joxer equals the no.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory wandered in, her hair once again in a high bun. She dressed in shin-length sweats and low-top shoes with leather wraparounds. There was also a plastic underarm protector hooked over one shoulder.

She retrieved a lightweight foil and quietly started to stretch off to the side, smiling at the new people.

[joxertehmighty.livejournal.com]

Joxer pointed at Rory's foil and laughed. "What's that supposed to be?"

After talking to Dean (http://saltandammo.livejournal.com/1325.html?thread=6701#t6701) earlier this morning, Cedric takes his time exploring the school. It's almost boring without the talking pictures, secret passwords, and frequent ghost.

He has absolutely no idea how he ends up in the gym but he's there and looking slightly baffled.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

And Rory had just started on her footwork when she saw him. "Cedric!" she said, stopping in the middle of an appel-lunge and lowering her foil. "Hi!"
