Dawn Practice
Giovanna dragged Angelo out of bed one morning, even earlier than they normally woke up.

"Come on, mon frere. Get dressed -- warmly -- and let's get you some exercise on the roof."

Angelo's commentary may, in fact, be more distracting to say than it is to hear.
His observable plan seems to rely on his sister's staying on a single plane across the roof.

She doesn't. Gio steps forward and grabs for his arm.

The advance hits true, and he's grabbed. His momentum falters and he's forced to take another large step back.

Angelo grits his teeth and fights off one of his most hard-wired instincts. He reaches out and strikes at his sister, thrusting an open palm into the crook of her elbow. He pushes forward and upwards, trying to create an opening for him to pierce through.

Gio's arm buckles, but her grip does not release. She just grapples a little closer.

Angelo grunts as he's pulled in closer, Gio having met his own advance. Plan B. He balls up his free hand, mindful to keep his thumb on the outside, and punches her in the stomach.

It takes a very concerted effort on his part to not reflexively apologize.

Wumph! Her grip loosens momentarily, but won't come off completely unless he takes the opportunity to shake it off. "Not bad," She mutters.

He learned from his earlier monologue, he doesn't reply.

Of course he's going to shake it off. The alternative is to stay there and have to hit his sister again! He frees himself and then dives forward, trying to make it to the other side.

Gio's a little slow turning around, and the roof isn't that big, so although she's on his heels,she doesn't quite catch up.

Angelo stops himself from going off the other side of the roof, then finally turns around. He breaks into a broad grin, before quashing it.

"Thank you very much for the exercise, Gio. Would you like to switch, or should I go again?"

She hands him his coat. "Put this back on; it's cold out here." Now, she's going to treat herself to an arm around Andrew.

Andrew hugs her back. "Quite the challenge. Looks like you both got a good workout."

"Mhm. He didn't do too bad. Not how I'd have done it, but that's not hte important thing."

"Yes, but you're not the one in training. Neither of us would have much luck trying to stop you going wherever you wanted anyway."

Angelo shuffles over to them as he puts his coat back on. "Gio, I'm sorry I had to hit you; alternately, I apologize if I should have hit you sooner." He bows his head slightly.

"Flattery, Mr. Summers, will get you nothing you couldn't alr-- Angelo, It was a reasonably effective time to hit me. Nothing to apologize for." Gio sighs and tousles her brother's hair.

He can't help but laugh. "Your sister isn't made of glass, and you'd best be going all out in training. I had to get over that impulse too, and quickly."

Angelo fusses, as he is wont to do.

"Yes, yes, of course she's quite durable. I still shouldn't look forward to hitting her." She's a girl.

He smiles at her. "It... it was an enjoyable exercise."
