The Pool, Wednesday Afternoon
With all his classes done by Tuesday, Ender had rather a lot of time on his hands. Not that he minded it - Karla's books and Ben's datapad were still giving him plenty of things to focus on, especially now that he'd started cross-referencing some things with Formic research on the way. (He was a nerd, yes, but at least he had a goal in mind.)
That didn't mean it wasn't nice to keep to schedule. Outside of his daily trip to the gym, the pool filled up the physical part of his daily schedule, and it was always nice to be back here.
He dove deep under the water as soon as he came in, pushing himself down until he was so deep that gravity almost-- almost seemed to cease to exist. He stayed there for as long as he could, cherishing the quiet, the calming effect it had on his thoughts.
He came back up for air, and started his laps. He'd be fit and ready to get back to work in an hour or so, but right now he was going to enjoy the exercise.
