Gym, After Workshops

Jun 15, 2006 13:52

After creating condom art in sex ed, Tyler changed into workout clothes and went to the gym.

Only two days until the game. After some stretching and a few laps, he decided to work on his three-point throws, using an exercise he found online.

He's getting ... well. Not all of them. But enough.

Bored, Seras made her way to the gym Thursday afternoon.

She'd never really spent much time in gyms, but she most of the people she knew who were adept with self defense did. So, Seras had decided that she'd better learn to use it.

Tyler waved to the blonde girl. It seemed to be the day for people he hadn't met yet in the gym. "Hey. I think I've seen you around."

union_jane June 16 2006, 01:28:30 UTC

Seras nodded. He did look vaguely familiar.

"I'm Seras," she said, holding out her hand.

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 01:41:43 UTC

Tyler took the hand and shook it. "Tyler," he said. "Seras, that's unusual."

union_jane June 16 2006, 01:45:41 UTC

"Pleased to meet you, Tyler."

She gave a bit of a lopsided smile and nodded.

"Yeah. It's Latin or something. I've no clue what it means, though. My mother was an English teacher..."

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 01:53:15 UTC

"Yeah? Mine was an accountant. Which doesn't have anything to do with my name," Tyler said. "Yours is pretty, though."

He dribbled a few more times. "So are you also sort of new?"

union_jane June 16 2006, 01:55:23 UTC

Seras nodded.

"There's no sort of about it. I part of the batch who arrived for the summer workshops. You?"

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 02:02:53 UTC

"Same," Tyler said. "I'm going to be a sophomore this fall."

He paused. "Oh, and I'm from Delaware and I don't have any cool powers. Unfortunately. You?"

union_jane June 16 2006, 02:12:05 UTC

"I'm going to be a soph, too."

Seras laughed.

"I'm from London...er in 1993. And...I know all the words to 'I am the Walrus'."

"In some subcultures that's considered a superpower," Tyler informed her.

His eyes flicked over Seras. "So how weird is being in 2006 for you? I had another one from the 90's in the library yesterday trying to catch up."

union_jane June 16 2006, 02:26:50 UTC

Seras thought a moment.

"It's been a little strange. But, whenever I start to *really* think about just how strange it is, it rains pudding or something. And, jumping ten years into the future just seems par for the course," she cleared her throat, "So...you work in the library?"

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 02:30:38 UTC

"True. Time travel, raining pudding, mummies ... it all kind of goes together."

He looked into the distance. "I do for the summer, anyhow. I had a little mishap the first week of camp and they decided being around the books would help me think about it, or something. I don't hate it. It's quiet."

union_jane June 16 2006, 02:39:17 UTC

Seras nodded.

"Quiet can be good. Especially around this place, I'd imagine. And...wait. Mummies?"

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 02:44:31 UTC

"It's rare, anyhow," Tyler agreed. "And yeah, mummies. Last weekend. There weren't that many of them, but there were enough."

union_jane June 16 2006, 03:07:26 UTC

Seras nodded slowly.

"Y'know...I'd always considered mummies to be the least frightening of all monsters. What with the unravelling bandages and the dust and the crumbling...But, I'm guessing that's not the case?"

tyler_gone June 16 2006, 03:18:01 UTC

"All the monsters I've fought have been human, so I don't have a lot to compare them to," Tyler said. "They were mean, though. And there were these big beetle-things..."

His voice trailed off. "It was exciting, but I'm glad they're gone."
