Shelter and distraction
Characters: Carmel, Edan and Wu
Setting: The gym, afternoon
Having managed to lead Edan away from the courtyard in the aftermath of Caroline's death, Wu had actually felt some satisfaction with himself for a moment. He generally wasn't good at cajoling or distracting others, though in the moment she had obviously needed it, and somehow? just talking and steadying Edan had been enough to get her clear.
Of course, any satisfaction he felt was short-lived once they'd actually reached the gym. However long it took, whatever detours they'd wandered? They were here now, and without being in motion Wu realized that he had to try and offer some sort of focus for Edan. Shit, he thought as they headed in, silently hoping that Carmel was going to show up as well. Otherwise?
"Exercise, this is good for strained times," Wu offered once inside, nodding back at the mess they'd both left behind, "Tire the body, tire the mind. Eventually shut out what troubles you. And with time, the body grows stronger."
