A celebration of sorts
Getting inched back a little ways from a throne was a reason to celebrate. Though he would do his duty if it came to that, Mikhail's engagement was a little relief from the possibility sneaking up on him.

Misha celebrated by not going to Disneyland. Instead, he spent a few therapeutic hours at a favorite bar playing pool and chatting up the barmaid over plenty of beers. The party continued outside in the back when a couple of guys thought he might be drunk enough to roll and learned that alcohol didn't stop his muscle memory from kicking in or kicking back. The party ended an hour before dawn when he left the barmaid's place and returned to the Institute.

After a hot shower, he pulled on a pair of old shorts, shoved a dvd into the player and kicked back on his bed as the opening credits to a B horror movie began.

Still not sleeping. Still not using vodka as a sleeping aid. Still working the professor's program to make sure he wasn't a danger to his family.

Sleep would be good, though. The nights were pretty lonely and he didn't have enough to keep him occupied. His side of the family needed sleep and embraced the concept wholeheartedly. The sleep gene might be linked to the cooking gene. Maybe he should get a pet to keep him company.

Only a couple of hours until his next session with the professor. Then a workout to see if he could tire himself out enough to get a couple of hours sack time. He'd see who was around the training rooms to spar with and get a good, old-fashioned workout.

Moira had already done her sleeping. Danielle still was doing so, so Moira was getting some exercise.

Misha paused to watch Moira for a moment and raised a hand in greeting.

"Good morning, Misha," she says brightly, stepping away from some practice equipment.

He isn't so bright or cheerful, and his sleepless night is lingering in the darker areas under his eyes, but he smiled at Moira. "Good morning. Don't let me interrupt you. I'm going work off some stress."

"It's not a problem." She looks concerned for a moment, but figures it would be rude to point out. "Interested in anything collaborative?" she asks with a small smile.

His smile widened a little. "Got something in mind?"

"Sounds like fun." He gave her a considering look and gestured playfully over to the workout mats set away from the machines. "Always a pleasure to say a girl kicked my butt."

She'll accompany him over to the mats, stretching her arms out a little as she walks, and soon stand ready.

"Where's Danielle? You two aren't going to tag team me, are you?" He spent a few minutes stretching the kinks out. His sessions with Xavier always seemed to make him one big knot.

"She's in our room. Our sleep cycles have gotten a little out of synch." A raised eyebrow. "I should probably add that casting aspersions on the honor of the Wolves of the Forest will not make things easier on you, Misha." She grins.

"I didn't say it wouldn't be fun," he teased. The sisters really were adorable.

One last, slow stretch and snap! He was in motion and diving in her direction.

Moira drops lower, the better to try to grab him by the arms.

Adjusting quick enough isn't a problem, and it's not as much fun. He let momentum take him to see what would happen.

Well braced and sort of catching him by the arms fairly near the shoulders, Moira quickly starts to shove him sideways.

Misha grabbed her around the waist and tried to carry her over into the tumble with him.

She'll come down a bit with him, but soon try to shove herself back up.

Misha lets her shove away and rolls to his feet. He bounces lightly, feeling a little goofy. The lack of sleep is getting to him.

Moira notices a little. She's still concerned, but for now she just moves a bit to the side quickly, then hurries forward to try to knock his legs out from under him.

Muscle memory, it's a beautiful thing. It works better when he's not thinking. Thinking would try to override instinct.

But they're having fun, so he thinks and it slows him down enough to get knocked over, but fast enough to keep moving, rolling and sweeping his leg a foot about the mat to catch her.

Moira quickly jumps as his leg comes, then takes just a second steadying herself as her feet hit the mat again; her balance is great, but it's not always perfect on two legs with no tail

Misha would applaud the move if his hands weren't balancing him on the mat, or if his leg wasn't making a return sweep...

And Moira yelps slightly as her balance is too precarious for the return follow-through and she comes down on top of Misha.

Aha!

And OOF! Knees!

Misha rests a moment with Moira on top of him, waiting until he can move again.

Moira chuckles a little. "Are you all right?"

He coughed and laughed, and cringed as a few muscles pulled that weren't ready yet to move. "Gimme a second. And...move the knee?"

Moira scrambles off of him.

Misha rolled over and moved to his hands and knees. Dumb rookie move to come in here without the proper protection.

Annnnd up to his feet. Things were starting to feel more normal. He casually looked away and back. Then away again.

"GERONIMO!" And the tussle was on again!

Tussling will indeed continue. Moira will refrain from going furry because it's just more sporting, but she's got a pretty nice grip in this form, too.

After several minutes' more shoving each other around, she says "I don't know about you, but I could use a drink."

"Giving up already?" Bruises form and heal under her grip. It's as solid as any. He's never made the mistake of thinking of girls as weak. It was a good way to get your unmentionables handed to you.

"Are we talking beer, water or coffee?"

"I was thinking of water, although plenty of Midgard beers are close enough."

He ducked and shifted his hold to grab her around her hips and lift her over his shoulder. "Don't make me defend the beer, honey. I might have to give in and admit you're right."
