The Gym, Saturday Afternoon

[lil-nikita.livejournal.com]

Alex was not in the best mood today. She usually had some pent up anger due to things from her past, but she'd been able to hide it well. She actually liked it here, so it was easier not to feel anger all the time.

That was before she turned into a butterfly.

It'd been pretty cool getting to fly around, but then she transformed back into human form and had to basically streak back to her room. That wasn't exactly her finest moment, so she was here today taking it out on a punching bag. Who was she kidding? This was clearly just an excuse to get some of her resentment and anger from her past out, even if she didn't want to admit it.

So there were punches and even some roundhouse kicks to the bag. It helped.

[open!]

"Reading. I do not believe one can force a book to give up it's secrets."

Unless they were very clever that is.

"No, I guess not," Alex said, giving that some thought. "They give 'em away all by themselves."

The phrase "an open book" came from somewhere, after all.

"Yes, but one must also understand the information presented."

"True enough," she said, once again throwing a punch at the bag. "This, I understand."

"You sound very much like my brother," Loki informed her cheerfully. "He would very much like that all problems be solved by judicious application of a hammer."

"Maybe I should start hitting the bag with a hammer," Alex said. Now there was an idea.

"Do you think it would help?" Loki. Don't encourage this.
