Oh this kid was a talker. Lance repressed the urge to roll his eyes. He preferred conversations to be simple. Just answer questions or ask simple ones or just do what you are told. Talking. Talking wasn't doing. Lance preferred action. That said more to him than talking. But Lance was never a cuddly type of guy who wanted to talk about his feelings. But then again, that is probably why he is still angry at Odie (even if they did kind of talk before Thanksgiving) and Rosalyn.
Still, Duck was appreciative of the advice. Lance exhaled slowly because he is so used to people taking him the wrong way, his follow up had no where to go. Duck took it and seemed appreciative of it! So he smiled easily, "You're welcome."
But then there was the talk about dinner and he already felt a little hungry. No, he still had several reps to go. He sighed and crossed his arms, "Great, you got me thinking about that too and I still have a lot to do today."
He appraised Duck again, "Yeah you could stand to put on some muscle. Sometimes it helps to have a gym buddy. Someone to spot you and keep you focused. I can help if you want."
