*he's outside Midgard, just far enough from the steps so he doesn't hit anyone, and he's jumping rope; the handles are a roughly shaped but smoothed pair of wooden handles; there's a pile of them a few feet away*

*more like a boxer as the ropes spin faster; then he slows down and sings; yes sings with amusement*

My boyfriend's name is Fatty

[Watches for a bit.]

That's an interesting game.

[Goes over at the pile, squatting next to 'em so she can get a better look.]

Expecting a party?

[cant_getoveryou]

It's simple and pretty old. I just made a bunch to pass... the... *stares and jumping slows*

...Well. We haven't met.

[vedransun]

[Picks up one of them, moving to stand again while observing the rope.]

Pass the time?

[Smiles, shaking head.]

No, I suppose not. My name's Trance, I live over in Apartment 1.

[cant_getoveryou]

Yes, time. *jumping as gone back to normal speed*

Name's Blaine. Nice to meet you. *he'd offer a hand, but you know* I can't imagine how I could have missed you. *especially since she snuck aboard the Salvage run too XD;;*

[vedransun]

Well, it's all about timing. Like how I waited until most of the natives left the trucks in the other city before coming out.

[She's watching to get an idea on how it's done. She's somewhat sure Dylan did this, but never really watched.]

[cant_getoveryou]

*blinks* Left the trucks... wait. You were on the salvage run?

*jumping in a steady rhythm*

[vedransun]

Yup! I wanted to get some soil samples.

[She'll be a bit away to try herself, which seems to go okay on the first jump. After... Well, jump roping may require tweaking for those with a long tail.]

Ow...

[cant_getoveryou]

Man... I am really off my game to not have noticed...

*soft laugh* Tail kind of gets in the way, doesn't it?

[vedransun]

It's not your fault. I used to have jobs that would require hiding and not getting caught.

[It's not funny. >:| Trance is even a bit pouty about it.]

Guess it doesn't go out enough when swinging. I'll figure it out...

[cant_getoveryou]

*he is still miffed by this, but oh well; he gets over things rather fast sometimes*

*still smiling* How flexible is it? If you wrap it around yourself, it won't get in the way.

[vedransun]

[I'm sure he'd feel better if he knew how much experience she's had doing such.]

Well, it's more prehensile towards the end. If I did wrap it around me, I'd be afraid of accidentally squeezing.

[cant_getoveryou]

*lifts eyebrow* Are you saying you'd squeeze yourself too hard?

Icon's just an example thought in her head.

[vedransun]

Well...

[Shrugs and tries keeping it lifted and curled a bit.]

I don't think it really curls so easily towards the base, anyway.

Oh myyy such violent thoughts D:

[cant_getoveryou]

Hmmm. Guess that means you have to have people turn it for you. One on each side.

Guess known examples would be violent. xD See how fast he went down?

[vedransun]

They do that too, with these? Wow...

[cant_getoveryou]

*laughs* Yeah. If we can find another person, I can show you. We need it to be longer for that though. You can even use two ropes at the same time to make it harder.
