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! ]

	[And Trowa is doing his damnedest to win, more because he can than any other reason. It was a challenge which he didn't get many of. He's getting the opinion that he wouldn't mind training with her in the future. She was definitely trained in this sort of thing. But first he has to get to finish line and he's doing all he can to get there] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

i'm okay with either of them winning so if you have any preferences go for it!

[ Who are you, really? Though - Haruka finds herself wanting to laugh, despite running harder than she ever has without the fate of the world at stake. Who does she think she is? This place pulls people from all over the universe - from alternate realities, even. For her to think there's no one anywhere that can beat her...

Ironically, being humbled makes her speed up. Gaining on you fast, Trowa, and given an unlimited amount of room to run she'd definitely overtake you. The trick will be doing it before the finish line.

She's drawing about even.... ]

Sounds good

[And as she comes racing up behind him, he pushes himself as much as he could. He was going to hurt after this, but even so there is a grin coming to his face. This was definitely fun, pushing himself so much.

And as they reach the finish line, they are neck and neck, but at the last few moments, she pulls ahead of him. But you know, he almost didn’t mind losing for that much of a challenge]

A good race.

[ Haruka, meanwhile, can't believe she almost lost. This is somehow harder to absorb than the fact that she won....though when she looks back at him and realizes how much he's been pushing himself too, everything settles into place. So this is what competing feels like for most people. No wonder they bore slower than she does. ]

Yeah. [ She offers him a hand. In her mind, Trowa deserves a prize too - for being that skilled, and for making her try. ] You're no slouch, Equestrian.

	[He was breathing heavier than he had in a while. He probably shouldn’t have pushed himself so much, but he’d been determined to try and beat her. He nodded at her comment, reaching out to shake her hand] Neither are you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Her handshake's firm, almost like they're arm wrestling. A bot's approaching, but Haruka waves it away with her other hand. Victor crap later. ] I guess stuff comes up even on vacation. [ You're totally keeping alert and in shape while you're here, aren't you. Good man. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He shakes her hand] It does. We always have to be prepared. [He was on the Defense Force so he had to be prepared] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She lets go with a smile. Practice isn't something she really does, but to prepare to go against despots like the Wardens it might be good to have a friendly rival. Besides, this was fun. ] I guess I might see you around the sports center, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sure you probably will. I go there often. I'll see you at some point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds good. Keep in shape. [ For now, however, she'd better see what these bots want from her. Awards ceremonies are annoying. She's gotten all the reward she wants already. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
