LET'S [test] DRIVING

[cava]

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, YOU KNOW THE DRILL. Here's a few options, all stolen shamelessly from previous iterations.

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters or whatever they're called.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> Arts and Crafts Fair. WILL THE KITSCH OVERWHELM YOU


or make up your own whatever this is basic and just for the purposes of getting a new test drive up.

I do not usually drop things, no! But it is always good to have the backup in case I make a mistake.

[she laughs]

If it does happen, you will have to promise not to tell Victor. I do not think he would let me forget it.

[shiftycent]

[Fuck.]

Right. Cross my heart. Lips are zipped. But uh, just for the record, let's not drop anything. That'd be awesome.

[This is taking a lot of mental preperation on his part while he moves around the barbel to spot her. Please don't screw up, please don't screw up, don't embarrass yourself in front of the girl, Rachel might actually kill you if Kara gets hurt.]

[chernobolt]

[Kara, meanwhile, is blissfully unaware of her friend's conflict - she's simply happy to have someone she knows sharing the joys of exercise with her. the cutesy little towel is carefully placed to the side as she takes position]

There will be as little dropping as possible! Today I am going to do ten sets.

[aaaaand off she goes, moving that behemoth of a barbel into the air with a practiced motion. she continues speaking as she works out, tone strained but still cheerful]

How has your day been? I do not believe that I have seen you as of late!

[shiftycent]

Oh, its been.

[He spents a good amount of time watching, just in case. Someone probably thinks he's checking her out, but he's more focused on the weight itself until he realizes Kara was still waiting for an answer.

He smiles awkwardly.]

I'm in high demand. Lots of running around and junk. Kind of nice to take a breath. What about you?

[chernobolt]

I am certain that you are handling the demand quite well! The attention seems to suit you.

[she grunts as the reps begin to stack up, but the barbel remains (mostly) steady]

Things have not been quite as exciting for me! My supernova essay is almost due, so I have been holed up in my dorm trying to finish the last few pages. I think that my blood may be turning into caffeine soon!
