Day 209 ✝ Action
✝ Action with Spencer Reid
Derek smiled brightly when he saw Reid walk into the athletic complex almost right on time to when they’d agreed to meet. He’d almost expected him to find an excuse not to show since this wasn’t really Reid’s thing, so he was really more than happy that he did. He’d wanted some time with his friend to see how he was really doing and this was as good excuse as any without being overly obvious that he was checking up on him. Reid could really just be happy that Derek wasn’t busting down his door again and pushing his way in. Improvement? Yes. Never let it be said that Derek couldn’t grow and change… kind of.

He stood up from the chair he’d been sitting in and picked up his bag. He’d already claimed a room to work in, like he usually did. One hand clapped down on Reid’s shoulder and squeezed. “Hey pretty boy. Almost thought you might not show.”

✝ Action with Rogue
For weeks now Derek and Rogue had been working privately with each other. It was actually working with her that had made him think about giving more lessons in self-defense… maybe even starting a class. But it was still just an idea he was toying with more than one he was actually putting into motion. Not that he would turn down anyone who wanted to learn or spar. He just wasn’t advertising it yet.

He was in his normal room that he occupied with a nice mat on a part of the floor. When Rogue came in, he smiled in her direction. “Hey, pretty girl. Doin’ alright? You get caught up in that mess yesterday?”

✝ Open Action for anyone and everyone
For the better part of the morning Derek will be at the Athletic Complex in Sector one. He’ll probably break for lunch and then head into the Defense Force Headquarters in Sector Two for a bit to do some work. Anyone is free to run into him in either place or in the in-between.

Rogue couldn't help but return Derek's smile. She shook her head a little. "No. I stayed in yesterday and did a lot of baking. Speaking of," she held out a covered pie dish. "I hope you like pecan pie."

She was dressed for their workout in yoga pants and a long sleeved, tight runners shirt. She had gloves on her hands. She took as few risks as possible when she and Derek trained.

"What about you?"

"Ahhh see now, this is why a brothah's gotta work out so much. Cause of sweet girls like you makin' him pie. Thanks, Rogue. You know I love it." He really laid on the Chicago accent for that comment. But it's said with a smile as he takes the pie and sets it down over by his bag. He would never complain that Rogue was always trying to feed him. Home cooked or baked goodness wasn't lost on him. He ate it right up.

"Luckily no, saw a few people who did though and I'm glad I knew exactly where I was." He didn't like the idea of anyone messing with his head. And seeing things that weren't there, seemed like it was too close to that for comfort.

He moved over to the center of the mat and sat down, stretching his legs out together in front of him and leaning as far over as possible to stretch. "Seemed too much like them gettin' in our minds. And the Wardens didn't even mention it in the greeting this morning, no explanation, nothin'."

Rogue laughed a little, ducking her head and turning a bit pink. "I'm pretty sure you could eat a pie a day and not be outta shape." Rogue didn't really have a crush on Derek, but she hadn't missed that he was very sexy.

"Yeah, me too. I like watchin' a movie much as anyone, but I don't think I'd wanna be in one."

She followed his lead, sitting down beside him and moving into the stretch. "Wonder why? They usually do mention things like that."

"Right back atcha, pretty girl." And Derek really had no romantic feelings for Rogue either. They were just good friends. And in true Derek fashion, he'd kind of taken her under his wing in that he felt very protective where she was concerned. There was a list of people Derek felt that way about, really. And Rogue was on the list.

He grabbed his toes, completely hunched over and stretching for a moment. And as it's hard to speak in that position, he's quiet for just a few seconds before sitting back up. "I'm not sure. But it doesn't sit well with me. I'm curious about it, about what caused it. Maybe the Wardens don't know it happened."
