260 — Olympics mingle
[ It is a gorgeous day down here at the bottom of the sea and what better day to have an Olympics! The obstacle course is set up, the towels are fluffed, the medals have been polished to a high sheen and every orange within sight has been sliced.

Okay. Maybe not every orange. A lot of them. Enough to fuel a whole prison full of athletes, so athlete away! We can't waste all these oranges! ]

	[Robbins is in no rush, keeping a steady pace, not second guessing the holds she'd chosen when she began. It's as much a test of her judgment as her physical strength; that is what she sees as her own challenge here.] You're making very good time, [she says approvingly, offhandedly.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And you're secure. Pacing yourself? [ Haruka reaches for another handhold. She'd rather encounter someone like this than anybody bent on winning - athletics for her are about competing with oneself instead of opponents. Sometimes she doesn't even notice other people are there. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She nods, pulling herself up to the next hold.] I'm as interested in the logic of their course as anything. I don't expect to win the race. [but the obstacles they choose, that is interesting. How others from other worlds are suited to it. How people with advantages and disadvantages cope. That, to her, is more interesting than winning races.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Interesting. [ That hadn't occurred to her. Sports as another way to assess the Wardens, maybe also their fellow inmates? Haruka supposes she can see that.

Her focus is mostly on herself, however. Glancing up, she surveys the wall, mentally selecting handholds for the rest of the ascent. If she takes that way, and then moves over there... ]

I'll be going ahead, then.

[ She's not really taking this super seriously, however, so there's a good chance you'll be able to catch up with her later. ]

	[Number One hasn't stopped moving; she's not quite keeping up, but it's close. For the ascent, at least.] Of course. Best of luck. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You too. [ Off she goes. It might be interesting to hear the conclusions you drew from all this at some point, but chances are you're still formulating them and, well, Haruka has an obstacle course to tackle. Feel free to encounter her later on in the course, however! She's slower descending than she was ascending. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
