Both points of view were not bad. Finding the limits and then a slow build-up to surpass it. She knew the limits. Now she just needed to start from scratch and work her way up from there. And Kasey was being more... friendlier?... than she was on the beach. She had gotten the feeling that maybe she and Gabriel didn't want to talk to her much or maybe they had an issue among themselves that Selena shouldn't be a part of. But whatever the reason, it seemed to have cleared up.
Antonio had suggested doing the dumbbells instead of the barbell. That actually made sense. It had been almost been a year since Selena had been on a barbell. Maybe that was the issue. She needed to switch equipment and back into the hand of things. She pulled the bench out and pulled it towards the dumbbell section. "Well, let's give both things a try," Selena said, lifting a light pair of dumbbells. She positioned herself on the bench and started lifting the weights, focusing on her chest area. As she did so, Selena said, "So Kasey. How have you been? It has been some time since we last talked." After Kasey replied, Selena asked them both, "Do you guys come here often? Seems like a really popular place."

A short guidance was replaced with a small lecture. While the details may have been requested, perhaps it was more than the girl had bargained for. If she had the answer she wanted, then Kasey could freely return back to her duties before retreating back home. But with the circumstance of the interaction, perhaps it really was a better idea to stick around. "With lighter weights, it's easier to ingrain muscle memory into the factor so everything is consistent." she would say, agreeing with him. "Get into the motions, know how long you can last, then find out how much you can carry or move." While she hadn't used as many words as he did, she surely hoped her point would have been just as clear as his. "Busy. Everyday is something new." she would answer, thought, not really giving an answer. She never expected to run into her again, and if she was being honest, all of her days were starting to blur with each other. How many days ago had she had a meeting with the head of ASTA? How long had she caught the end of Thundershock's message? It was hard to say, but did it really matter? Days, weeks, hours, months. It didn't matter how much time passed, or if time passed at all, it only mattered what she had done thus far. "At least once a week, though I try to at least once a day . . . or so." She lifted her hand, her fingers spread out as she displayed how inconsistent her routine was. It was something she had tried to get into the habit of, but some days just weren't good days. Some days had sales for food, and there wasn't a reason to work out with a full stomach. Other times, she avoided the place on purpose entirely. And sometimes it was all she could think about. ~ Word Count: 314 ~ |

He smiled as she went to get dumbbells. But once the lass started to talk to Kasey, he simmered down and let the two exchange question and answer. So once Kasey answered that she was busy and whatnot. Selena asked if they come here often. Antonio replied "I wouldnt say often. I sometimes do. You could say I am new to the gym. As I am rusty. I havent been working out for years"
So after that he let Kasey reply to which she said once a week. Antonio mentally noted that down. Perhaps he should pick up that once a week tempo. Though he honestly didnt know what else to say. These ladies were still strangers to him after all. And honestly, he didnt feel like he could flirt with them and be his usual self. Selena seems a bit on the younger side and Kasey doesnt seem interested in relationships.
"I am getting goth vibes from her. All brooding and death" he thought to himself as he slowly continued lifting his weights and do his own training routine. He was still involved in the whole group conversation thing. But its just he didnt add much more to it. Like what could one ask. Kasey didnt give the whole vibe of wanting to interact. And Selena? Well... she seems nice

She smiled at the white-haired girl, understanding if she didn't want to talk more about her day-to-day life. "Hey. It's better to stay busy than to do nothing at all, right?" Selena commented as she lifted the weights. She focused on the advice that the two gave her, trying to ingrain in her muscle memory the weight and finding the limit she needed to surpass. Her mind drifted a bit, thinking about the first case she would soon have to work on. Apparently one of the pros had found a kid who had a bat mutation in connection with a robbery. From what they gather, the young boy was just there to be there. But the other two might had been the ones who actually committed the act. On top of that, he was an orphan and could possibly know the other two. Who was this kid? And where was his family? The more questions that arose, the more dead ends Selena ran into.
As Selena sat the weight back on the holding place, her phone went off. She pulled out of her pocket to read the message. It discussed the importance of her case and what she would need. She was to report to the office once she had gotten the chance to. "Looks like I have to go. Work needs me. Well," she said turning to the two of them, "it was nice seeing you, Kasey. And Antonio I hope we get to meet again in the future. And thank you both for the advice Gotta run." Selena grabbed her bag and took off from the gym. If the Informant was calling, it was important.

"Well, you can't have too much of a healthy habit. I suppose." she trailed in thought. Too much of anything could result in death. Even over hydration was a thing. Maybe frequenting the gym often would have been toxic to certain people, and those with certain quirks, less so. With the girls words, Kasey would nod, thinking about her next words. Before they could roll from her tongue, she found the girl rushing her way out. Was it another awkward situation Kasey had put her in? Was this all her fault? She silently blamed herself as she smiled and nodded to the girl as she left. She turned to the man, hoping she still wasn't making a horrible impression. "Well, uh." She stretched a bit, putting her arms behind her as she looked around the gym, her eyes drifting to her bag again, seeing it was still there and safely guarded. "I guess you don't come here often then." was it a pick up line? Maybe. Probably not. ". . . anyways... any reason to drop the hobby?" It was a strange thing to talk about, and perhaps was forced in its own way, but she was interested, even if she really didn't know how to... people. ~ Word Count: 205 ~ |

Selena had to go, so she excused herself. Antonio said his goodbyes to her "Bye bye. See you some other time maybe" he said and waved to her. After which he turned to Kasey who spoke that he doesnt come here often then "Oh si. I was a tad bit busy hence why I couldnt keep up. Granted before I used to actually rely on my Quirk for strength as I was more stronger before. But I guess with time I became.... whats the word... placid? Well, basically that. I need to hence work on myself more. What about you?" he asked Kasey He wasnt sure if Kasey had to go as well. Personally he wasnt going anywhere for a while since he had time and was determned to train more to regain his lost strength. He wasnt sure what Kasey was doing, but he imagined she was doing a bit of the same. Granted he'd understand if she was to also excuse herself from him so she can work on somethin else. Maybe he will go as well, but that is for later. Just training and lifting weights, thats all he would need for now. Maybe a bit of a treadmill too
