Just keep spinning, just keep spinning--

[strategic_guile]

Date & Time: February 6th-ish [Backdated for great justice]
Location: The Hold Gym/Work-out-atorium
Characters: Blaine Thorps + ERRYBODEH
Summary: He's practicing with his staff. Come bug and distract him.
Warnings: Eh, Blaine potentially flirting? Nah, I got nothin'.

The first few days after the last mission had been the worst. The information he got from his older self was kind of shocking, but he really didn't know where the dark cloud that had loomed over him for days had come from. No matter how hard he tried to sweat it out he couldn't get the events off his mind. Now the unintentional sequestering was over.

Blaine felt a little bit lighter and he could push aside the somewhat foreign thoughts and memories and get outside. Well, outside of his room anyway. He found a spot along the edge of the floor to himself and pulled out the flashlight sized rod out of his pocket. He twisted it and pushed a button and it extended out to its full size, a little shorter than his 6'2" height. He spun it once or twice before he went slowly through a practice form by himself to warm up. Once done, he looked around and spotted someone who looked like they might want a partner.

He gave a half smile, "You wanna spar?"

Drawing isn't going to help you in a fight. [He looked down at her feet at the things she was wearing.]

Rollerblading?

[tried]

Sort of. They're called air trecks-- which is really just a fancy way of saying they're motorized.

[strategic_guile]

So you don't have to push off, they do it for you? [He tilts his head to look at them again.] You just ride around in them?

[tried]

[It was definitely easier to show instead of tell in this kind of situation-- so Ringo smiles lightly before she pushes off with enough pressure to speed off behind him, jumping to run a lap around the gym's walls.

once she's done she hops off the wall and into a backflip before she lands in front of him.]

Like that.

[strategic_guile]

Ah.

[He watches eyes a bit wide as she runs along the walls.]

Gravity wasn't ever so kind to me.

[tried]

[A laugh,] Well, you can't be sure unless you've tried it. Do they have things like it where you're from?

Ah, not necessarily in the form of skates.

[strategic_guile]

Not like that... we have scooters, sure, but you can't just run up the walls on them. [He's very impressed.]

[tried]

Sorry to hear. Though... I'm actually a pretty big fan of scooters. [Said softer, as if it was somehow some big secret when really she was just in a good mood.]

[strategic_guile]

If you have those, I'd be surprised if you didn't have motorized scooters, too. [He's looking at the walls like maybe they have something on them that helped her do that cus seriously.]

[tried]

I don't know about motorized scooters, per se, but we do have vespas and motorcycles that I suppose could look the part. Some people get pretty creative with them.

[strategic_guile]

Yeah, we have those, but I mean the ones you normally stand on that have handlebars and you push with your foot. I guess it's kind of like a skateboard with handlebars.

Come to think of it, we have those, they just... don't scale walls.
