Characters: Pearl Fey and Dick Grayson Location: The gym! Time: Uhh. Saturday, probably early morning. Content: Pearl is practicing where she's pretty sure she won't hurt anyone. Format: Prose Warnings: ADORABLE
After the early meeting Scott - who hasn't changed a bit, Dick's noted fondly - called, the best idea would probably be to go take a nap considering he hasn't even slept yet. Instead, Dick's decided to hit the gym to have a little workout.
Perhaps not the brightest idea after a night of crime fighting but he's far too awake now to go to sleep. Caffeine does that to you. He'll work out, cool down for a while and maybe read a book and then see about sleep. For now, Dick just wants to move and this early in the morning he should have the gym all to himself.
Or so he thought until he entered the gym, at least. Curiously there's a little girl already there.
Pearl's favorite thing in the gym where the medicine balls- they were kind of like her own ball, except heavier and they didn't bounce as well. Still, they were fun to toss into the air and see how high she could throw them.
The surprise of someone actually being there made her fail to catch it when it came down with a loud 'clunk.' "Oh! Um, good morning." He looked like a teacher, but she was still surprised to see someone.
The loud resounding clunk made Dick wince a little. It's a good thing he's gotten so used to seeing what these kids could do, the sight of a little girl tossing around a medicine ball isn't too weird to him.
"Sorry, did I startle you?" He gave her an apologetic smile as he moved closer. The answer was obvious but that's what somewhat rhetorical questions were for.
"Um. A little..." Pearl quietly reached down to picked the ball, holding up in front of her. "I can leave if you want to use it..." She offered him the ball for him to take if he wanted.
