Atlas Gym, Monday (10/19)
One of these days Beau was going to have to just accept the fact that she really was a giant nerd and give in to the impulse to maybe sign up for some college classes, because she'd spent way too much time falling down various Wikipedia rabbit holes over the weekend, but today was not going to be that day.
Today was, apparently, going to be the kind of day where she was just sighing and facepalming by an hour into her shift over the fact that a couple of the treadmills had been replaced by giant hamster wheels overnight.
No, wait, that wasn't why she was facepalming. It was the part where people kept trying to use them and then getting stuck because they couldn't figure out how to slow the giant hamster wheels back down enough to get out safely that had her hand more or less glued to her face.
... at least until she had to jump into the oversized wheels to help them get back out, which pretty much tapped her entire reserve of ki, because she might be a speedy little shit to begin with but she needed the extra boost from her Step of the Wind technique to keep one step ahead of the damn wheels. Sometimes literally, yes. In the end she managed to rope off the hamster wheels and then station herself close enough to them to keep an eye out for anyone who decided to take that as a challenge, or an invitation, or whatever.
Thank Ioun for the fact that all she needed was an hour of downtime to replenish those ki reserves, because she would legitimately be surprised if no one at all decided to test out the hamster wheels anyway.
Although huh, maybe with some tweaks to the design it might actually be a pretty dope exercise apparatus, so... yeah, guess what Beau was going to be contemplating all day today?
[OOC: Do I know? Of course not. Do I ever? Pfft. Anyway, open.]
