Atlas Gym | Thursday

As was his way, Dimitri was at Atlas early and ready to go. The ladies had shown him how to work the overhead music, which had the potential to make the people working out chagrin.

It may be better not to ask where the AC/DC CDs came from.

Because some people think the date is the time.

Because he is at work and completely available to those who wander in.

Because sometimes you just want to get in your cardio while enjoying the view.

If I'm spotty, blame the job!

It was totally almost becoming a challenge to try to get to the gym every morning before Dimitri.

This morning, a good 10 minutes before 6, Rose pushed the door open, checking around it to see if maybe this time she'd beaten him.

*eyes OCD text* heeeeey...it was a totally understandable mistake!

...Rly.

"You're early," Dimitri commented from where he was leaning against the front desk. "Maybe you do need a new watch."

Rose made a face at him. "Maybe I'm just eager to start the day," she teased.

He should probably be glad she's not just ending her night. "You're eager for training?"

"Totally," Rose agreed. "I mean, why wouldn't I be? Another morning for you to teach me your wisdom, Comrade."

Mm, early morning humour.

She was hilarious. It explained his complete lack of laughter, though he did shake his head at her calling him Comrade again. "Are you going to guess at what my wisdom is going to have you work on today?"

Oh, she'd gotten used to him laughing on the inside.

"Stakes," Rose said quickly.

Well...he'd asked.

That nearly had him laughing on the outside. His lips quirked.

"And what makes you think that?"

"Cause I'm ready," Rose said, almost vibrating with suppressed excitement and hope. "And I have to start learning soon."

He was going to sound repetitive but it would be worth it. "Tell me, how do you know you're ready?" Dimitri didn't think she was.

...How?

"Because I'm strong and fast, and I totally could do it well," she said, finally dropping her gym bag by the wall.

All that and running was boring enough to make her scream.

"Then why do you think I've had you running so much?" He was honestly curious about what she thought.

"Cause you get some kind of twisted joy out of it," Rose snarked, trusting he'd get the sarcasm. "And maybe cause you think I need the discipline or something."

Her snark had come to be expected. "Okay, so tell me, Rose," he crossed his arms and studied her carefully. "Exactly what would you do if you and Lissa were out shopping and ran into a Strigoi?"

Yeah, that was pretty much necessary for them to get along.

"Stake 'em," she said instantly, bravado obvious even as she remembered Natalie and just how freaking fast she was.

He leaned forward, interested with raised eyebrows. "Oh? Do you have a silver stake or know how to use one if you did?"

It was almost fun to keep asking her questions.

Rose opened her mouth then shut it again. "I didn't realise we were talking for real," she said, making a face. "If I had one, I could use it."

...Maybe. She could remember how it had felt to stake the vampires in the other Fandom, but she wasn't sure it would carry over.

"And if you didn't have one?" Because no way was he giving her one anytime soon.

She took a breath, trying to figure out her options. "Get Lissa out of there." That was number one no matter what. "And then cut off its head."

Pleased that she was dabbling in the proper direction with her answer, he continued on. "Ignoring the fact that you don't have a weapon to do that, how will you compensate for the fact that he may be a foot taller than you?"

It was almost like Dimitri waited around all day thinking up these great questions, huh?
