Salle, Wednesday Morning.

Most people, when going down to the salle, tended to wave around Very Pointy Things.

Makita was not Most People on a good day, and today was definately a good day. She was dragging out the rather dusty and oft-ignored gymnastics equipment. The uneven bars and the balance beam got a good cleaning, first, before she kicked off her shoes and started going through a quick warm-up to stretch out.

A few minutes later her hands were chalked and Makita was up on the beam, going through a basic tumbling routine before working her way into a flight series.

"That sounds funny coming from someone your size," Proto teased. Which was A) silly, since he wasn't all that big himself, and B) dangerous, because this was Makita he was needling.

"Watch it, solider," she warned, changing her grip to swing down and back over the taller of the two bars. "From up here, I can kick you in the head!"

"Like you need those things to do that," he laughed, following her movements so that he'd be in place to spot without being in the way.

"Flying leap tackle, then!" she laughed. "If I'd bothered to put any mats down, I would, but I don't need you bleeding all over the floor."

"You saying I couldn't hold my own, Makita? Because that's what it sounds like to me." That sounded like a challenge.

"Nope. You'd either cheat and dangle a candy bar at me, or lose horribly." Someone was confident in her own abilities. "You gun-boys don't know what to do when you've got someone on top of you."

Totally Dirty, and not true, but really Totally Dirty.

"It's... like you actually know me," Proto gasped, clutching his hand theatrically over his heart to mark the hit. "That said, I'd be glad to prove you wrong on the knowing-what-to-do thing."

"You," Makita informed him briskly, doing a kip (http://www.drillsandskills.com/images/display?path=ubar3.gif), "are a very bad man, Proto of Nokgorka."

It wasn't a no.

"Ah." Which wasn't a denial. "That's a good thing, right?"

Makita took a straddle back into a handstand. "What do you think?"

"Well, you've never complained about it before..." Mentioned? Yes. Complained? No. "So... yes?"
