The beach, Tuesday morning
There was a whole school of yoga practitioners who believed that yoga could be better than -- or at least as satisfying as -- sex. Duke had never been one of them, but this morning he was perfectly happy to try.
It'd been a long night last night, and it was only Tuesday. Octavia said this stuff usually lasted a week.
The pose he was working towards today didn't look especially complex, but it was one of the most difficult he knew. It would take all his focus and composure --
He dropped back out of his handstand with a curse. Focus and composure were not especially easy for him right now, after all.
[beach yoga is open as usual!]

Plus Duke would probably forgive her if she was an impossible brat like she seemed to be to everyone else.
"So, zen," she greeted him.

He had a we're-not-calling-it-that girlfriend. He had plans with said person. But they were still more than 24 hours away. . . .
"Right, so, uh. Should we dive right in?"
Yoga teachers were probably supposed to at least look at their students a little, weren't they.

With zero prospects, and no way to turn it off.
"Yeah. Let's dive in."
no subject
Sorry, not diving in quite yet here, Rey.

It was probably pretty clear just from the tone of her voice that she was beyond done with this.

He was very glad he was wearing loose pants.
"Right." He dusted his hands off and looked at the yoga mats. "Let's get you into some handstand variations, then."

Duke had never made it all the way to his head in that pose, no.
"But we can try an upside down tree pose or shoulder stands or -- pretty much anything. You can do a lot of weird shit balanced on your hands."
And yes, he was now picturing how it would work to have sex that way. Thanks, Fandom.

"Maybe we should start slow."

Get that blood rushing to your head instead of your nethers!

It was like her focus sucked today or something.

But maybe it was a good focus exercise, so she took a moment to try and steady herself before taking one hand off the mat, and immediately started to fall over,

. . . Once his brain stopped trying to make a dirty pun out of 'tripod'.
no subject
But uh.
"What's a tripod pose?"

Tripod pose.
Apparently, showing off for the pretty girl was in line enough with what his body wanted him to do that he even got to focus properly on it. Otherwise, that probably wouldn't have gone nearly so well.
no subject
That wasn't going to stop her from watching way too closely, whether she wanted to or not. "Easy enough."
no subject
This week was messing with him a lot on that front.
He lowered his feet back to the ground and rocked back onto all fours.
"Sure, you say that, but I'm going to stop you the moment your back isn't straight. This one's way more about strength and form than balance."
no subject
She copied what he'd done- seriously, she'd been paying attention- pulling her legs up and immediately deciding this was maybe the wrong hair fir this today.
She wasn't up straight, either. It was possible everything was going to be off today.
