Morning Workouts (open)
Frances fiddled with the pod and hummed when the song continued on the weight-room's speakers. Heading to the punching bag, she stretched her arms over her head and then pulled at her shoulders slowly to get at her back muscles. Mm, after a strong round of coffee, this felt like a good morning for a sweat-out alright. By the time the first two songs finished, she was plenty warm to start the weights. She hopped to the ground and started the push-ups, one arm at a time.

	"I'm a natural morning person," he said. "I'm up with the sun." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Whoo, that's a nice skill to have. Must come in handy," she replied, impressed. "So not a heavy duty coffee drinker?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not really," he said as he started lifting the weights. "I don't get too much sleep in the summer." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ugh no, that sucks." Sleep was precious and wonderful, to be deprived it was wrong. "Luckily the sun sets earlier up here than it does down south, so yay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mike paused and shrugged. "It's not so bad. I have more time to do things and get things done." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, like fun?" She looked over at him with raised eyebrows. "No offense but that was a very Boy Scout answer. If the witching hour isn't your thing, how does Mr. Blackwater cut loose from a day of do-gooding?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I like to ride the bike," he said. "Breakneck speeds in and out of traffic." He smiled. "What about you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-02 12:54 am UTC (link)
	"Alright! Inner-troublemaker!" she laughed and shook her head. "Hmm, if it sounds like fun, I'm usually game. Hustling bars though, easy money." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It is." Mike chuckled. "Why am I not surprised? Would you care to go for a ride sometime?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-02 02:54 pm UTC (link)
	She bat her eyes guilelessly. "I give a third of my winnings to my shill, just saying." With a grin she nodded to his offer. "Sure, that'd be great!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	american_eagle 2013-08-02 04:50 pm UTC (link)
	Mike smiled. "Whenever you want to go, just give me a yell." A pause. "So just how good are you at pool?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-02 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Count on it, mister." She gave a scheming laugh and smirked. "Better than I am at chess, at any rate. It's all angles and trajectories, and a dash playing 'keep away'." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe during our ride we can stop and play a game and you can show me just how good you are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-02 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh no, it'll take more than just a round of pool to show that." She started giggling and put down a weight fora moment. "Sorry, too good a line to pass up. Hoo okay. Snk. Honestly, sounds like a great plan to me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	american_eagle 2013-08-02 10:58 pm UTC (link)
	"We don't have to limit it to one game," he said. "It'll take more than one game to drink a few rounds." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-03 12:30 am UTC (link)
	She grinned widely, it was fun having someone to banter with! "Well, if you're going to be like that, maybe we'll have an outing before the week ends!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Whenever the lady wants," Mike said. "Though I have a feeling you're the type to be a very bad influence." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Aww. You say the sweetest things," she said, batting her eyes. "Hey, do you even have to train, or just like to keep warmed up for trouble?" The other kind of trouble, with shouting and car tossing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I have a bit of super strength, but lifting weights is therapeutic. Plus it never hurts to stay in shape." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-06 02:27 am UTC (link)
	She chuckled and nodded. "I could never tell if supers were serious about doing weights, or just playing around. Did your father teach you, or did you just wing it as you went along?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	american_eagle 2013-08-06 12:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Just winging it," he said. "I started daily workouts before I met my dad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-06 03:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Gotcha. Good habit to acquire, setting goals, and all that jazz," she agreed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	american_eagle 2013-08-07 10:08 am UTC (link)
	"What about you? Where did you get your daily workout schedule from?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotshot_hawkeye 2013-08-07 04:27 pm UTC (link)
	She laughed and grinned crookedly. "You mean besides my idiotic impulse to run with or pick fights with supers, all with just a prehistoric weapon?" With a grunt, she switched weights. "My parents helped me train, then it escalated as I grew. Can't be middling if you want to be part of Earth's Mightiest, legacy or otherwise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	american_eagle 2013-08-07 10:25 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded as he added more weight. "I can understand that. Bows aren't prehistoric. They're elegant weapons. I spent time learning how to use one while I was on the reservation." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
