What If: When We Begin
Anya removed her helmet and stepped out of the suit of armor. She was drenched from head to toe with sweat despite the suit's environmental controls and the shorts and tank top she wore were plastered to her skin. Anya did always tend to run a bit on the hot side and it had been quite a workout. She sat down and straddled the bench in the locker room. She laid back and stared up at the ceiling.

All of her limbs felt rubbery and she didn't think she could move. She didn't want to move. This bench was nice and comfy. She could stay here a day or two.

She sighed and knew she would have to move. She had things to do. There was a new suit of armor that needed to be worked on.

Sarah the workout warrior follows into the locker room, stretching a bit as she goes. Likely much to Anya's disgust, just like most other mornings, she's not sweating. At worst, she may have a little color in her cheeks. But then this is just her first of three daily workouts, no lab time for her.

"The suit is running really well. I think the modifications you made to the targeting system are working the way you wanted." she calls, settling down next to Anya and removing her boots.

	"Thanks, but there's still some kinks to work out. The response time is a little slow." Anya sat up with a groan. She eyed Sarah. "It's disgusting how you don't break a sweat and I look like I took a shower." Her eyes closed. "Mmm hot shower sounds good. Or better yet, a soak in a bath with very hot water."

	"I'm not wearing armor that weighs as much as I do, and I work out a lot more than you do. I also have powers, so its kind of cheating." she responds with a shrug, trying to be helpful. "I was probably going to just grab a shower, I don't know though, that does sound kind of nice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya smiled. "It does. Long soak in hot water. Massage. Facial." Her smile grew. "I'm thinking spa trip." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Eh, you're welcome to it. My muscles are too dense for your people to do anything, and I don't have the eye candy factor you do there. If you want to hit the spa though, go for it. The hot water and soaking has some appeal though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There you go taking all the fun out of it. What am I going to do with you Sarah Rogers?" Anya stood up and stretched tired muscles. "I feel gross." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She moves up behind Anya, she's no professional masseuse, but she has strong hands and knows her pressure points well enough to give a decent shoulder massage. "I take all the fun out of it because it isn't any fun. You could always take me to dinner instead though. That is fun, and gets your butt out of the lab." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya practically melted under Sarah's hands. "Oh gods. That feels heavenly," she practically purred. "I get distracted. That's why I have you to drag me out once and awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-22 09:01 am UTC (link)
	Sarah continues the massage, since there's no objection, even if she's aware she needs to be careful here. "I know you do, but I don't mind doing the dragging. I do kinda sorta like having you around and all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah is all ready to go, a gym bag over one shoulder, shield and hammer along for the trip, all ready - but leaving the sash behind. "Alright, gorgeous, ready to fly?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-23 01:34 am UTC (link)
	Anya smiled. "With you? Of course." The missing sash didn't go unnoticed. "Go get it. I know what it means to you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-23 01:37 am UTC (link)
	She shakes her head. "Not right now. She meant a lot to me... I learned a lot about myself, but I don't want to deal with the Exiles baggage the next little while, and I want to try being just with you and see how it goes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya affectionately brushed a lock of hair out of Sarah's face. "If you're sure. I don't mind and I know what it means to you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-23 01:51 am UTC (link)
	She kisses Anya softly. "Gretchen meant a lot to me, and I'm not getting rid of the sash. She still means a lot to me. She probably always will. But right now, I just want to be yours for a few days and see how this all works. Its ok, really. It'll be fine here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-23 01:54 am UTC (link)
	Anya returned the kiss and then smiled. "Okay and I like the sound of that. Let's go before something happens and we're needed to save the world or something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She picks Anya up and heads out from there, using the shield to break the airflow coming at them so Anya can breathe at a decent velocity. Ok, so maybe there's a fair amount of snuggling in the carrying process. "Tropical island resort ho. You want to call ahead and make reservations?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey Beautiful," Anya smiled as she slipped under the covers and then pulled Sarah close before pulling the covers over them. "Mmmmm," she hummed contently as she snuggled against her girlfriend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah happily nestles against Anya, wrapping an arm over her. "Wow, I don't even know where to begin." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2010-02-24 10:04 am UTC (link)
	"Then let me start," she said. "This feels wonderful and almost like a dream." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rogue_star 2010-02-24 10:07 am UTC (link)
	"A wonderful dream. And yet I'm torn between a thousand questions, and wanting to just pretend they aren't there. No matter what though, you're wonderful. I don't know what happened or where things changed, but I'm glad they did. Don't doubt that. I'm just a worry-wart... Rogers family trait." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Why don't you start at question number 1 and go from there? We'll see how many we can get answered before we fall asleep." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
