Who: Carol Danvers & Open NPCs: — When: July 10, 2013 Where: Avengers Mansion, Training Room What: Carol works on finding her focus and center. Rating: PG
Carol was alone in the training room, seated on top of a yoga mat cross-legged. She wasn't saying "Ohm" or anything like one might expect when someone was doing yoga, but that was a common misconception. Carol knew she wasn't being her best when she returned from rehab a few months ago. She spoiled her sober coin by drinking a little at the wedding for Sue and Reed and had started using ice cream as her substitute for alcohol. She didn't feel any better though and knew she needed to take things more seriously. Focus, clear her head. What better way to do that then yoga?
She'd started with a dolphin plank once she was started and from there repositioned to full plank. It seemed easy enough but Carol had used yoga as a way for her to "cleanse" her mind when she was in rehab, so that was just the easy stuff. Her body flexed and stretched as she went from a firefly to crane and then shifted to peacock to the first and then second of Sage Koundinya. Each transition was easier as she moved through the motions. She was happy she picked it up again, really happy.
She was now in a oddly comfortable position and resting there. Her limbs felt sinewy, a desired result, and she was content. Thoughts of alcohol were far away and instead she was thinking about the bottle of cold water which was sweating more on a mat nearby than she was. After she finished through these she'd go and take a nap, then maybe watch some television. With whatever was left of her pint of Chubby Hubby.
