The gym [early evening]

[momslilassassin]

After a few good hours of wallowing, Ben made his way down to the gym to work off his tension in a more productive way.

The punching bag might not be all that appreciative of it, given the way the chain was squealing each time Ben hit it.

[OOC: Open like a gym!]

"It's good to have hobbies," Ben said, snickering. "Admiral Gavin's Story Hour will be famous."

"And fun," Gavin said. "And you'll have an open invite whenever you come along in my timeline."

"I'm sure Jacen'll love me borrowing a shuttle to head to your ship for story time," Ben teased.

"He can come too," Gavin decided. "Might loosen him up a bit."

[momslilassassin]

"You'll have to meet him," Ben said. "I don't think anything can loosen him up. He makes Granddad look like a barrel of laughs."

"If he ever makes it here as a student, we'll have to set up a gremlin bite for him," Gavin decided.

[momslilassassin]

"That's an astral idea," Ben said, giggling.

"So, maybe that's an even better idea for dealing with your dad and the thought reading thing," Gavin decided. "Instead of jello dragons, think of Jacen as...a gay magician who wore spandex and thought his droid was a tiger."

Might as well use the one he had experience with.

"Teach him to stay out of my head," Ben declared.

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Exactly," Gavin agreed. "And trust me, he gets a glimpse of what you think of, he won't look again."

[Going home! Back soon!]

[momslilassassin]

"Do you think he'd get mad?" Ben asked.

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"If he does, blame it on me," Gavin decided. "Tell him I said to do it."

[momslilassassin]

That probably wouldn't help much. Jacen didn't have that great an opinion of Gavin.

"I will," Ben promised.

"And don't hurt yourself on this punching bag," Gavin said. "Hands are important, after all."

[momslilassassin]

Ben nodded. "I know."

[sixstandingby.livejournal.com]

"Come find me if you need to talk some more," Gavin said. "I'm around."

[momslilassassin]

Ben smiled shyly. "Thanks. I will."
