The doctor is still in. And also she isn't a doctor

Who: Bai Lin and others
What: Catch-all for August
When: August
Where: Around the school
Warnings: Implied offscreen naughtiness

-Office hours-

2-5pm, mon-thurs are the official times that Lin can be contacted by anyone who needs to talk to the school counselor. The reality of it, however, is that she will talk to anyone at any time who needs her. She is a sucker for a sob story.

Her office was starting to look a bit more lived in. Aside from the standard issue furnishings (filing cabinet, bookshelf, desk, chairs, etc), she had added a teapot and a bunch of varieties of tea, a baby animal wall calendar, and a small incense stick holder (currently not in use).

-Training hours-

Lin had promised several people that she would try to teach them what she knows, for various reasons. Either they wanted her help or she thought they needed it and had talked them into it. What she had NOT promised to do, despite what others might think, is to actually teach them martial arts. Her techniques could be alarmingly lethal and, in the wrong hands, could get a lot of people hurt. She was very careful about who she taught them to. Meditation and breathing techniques, however, were perfectly safe to teach, good for mental health, and legitimately the foundation on which a lot of other stuff was built. So technically she hadn't lied to anyone!

She generally met people in the gym at the Legionnaire Quarters, as she found the Mythril Cage to be too hostile looking for her preferences.

-Power hours-

Lin loved new experiences, but she also found routine comforting. It was how she had grown up. In the morning she jogged and meditated. In the afternoon she worked. In the evening she lifted. Back at the Legionnaire Quarters, but on her own time now, Lin made ample use of the weight machines. When you don't have a flame, or a magic crest, or a daemonic contract, you have to grab every advantage you can, and that means staying swole as fuck.

Who else uses their evenings to hit the gym? She's not here EVERY night, but she's here often enough that one might be forgiven for making that mistake.

-Wild hours card-

[If you got other ideas hit me up on discord or plurk, or just throw a prompt at me and I'll roll with it.]

Power Hours

[Jail's workout routine typically consists of a vigorous regimen of "whatever seems like fun" on a strict schedule of "whenever I feel like it". But she's been doing a bit less running from the cops lately, so she's got a little extra energy she's in the mood to burn off.]

[Normally she makes her own fun- parkour can get entertainingly ridiculous when gravity is less of a law than a suggestion- but since she's got access to this gym for free she may as well give it a try.]


Need someone to spot you?

[The fact that it also gives her the opportunity to potentially enjoy looking at buff ladies working out is, of course, just a bonus.]

[On the bright side, at least Lin can be sure she'd be paying close attention...]
nor_iron_bars: Our careless heads (Stumbling but yeah)

[personal profile] nor_iron_bars 2019-08-05 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[She definitely sees this, because she's enjoying the view and having fun instead of ignoring the many beautiful sights around her in favor of focusing on boring stuff, like using the gym for its' actual intended purpose.]

Wouldn't offer if I did.

[She strolls over to the weightlifting benches, casually leaning against a nearby elliptical machine.]

How much are you up to these days, anyway?

[How much do you lift, bro?]
nor_iron_bars: Alone that soar above (Keep doing what you're doing)

[personal profile] nor_iron_bars 2019-08-07 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Huh... [Jail looks thoughtful, as though contemplating some deep philosophical issue.] So either I'm gonna have to lose a lotta weight, or you're gonna have to break some records.

You know, so you can bench press me some day.

[What.]

[No one else was suggesting that, Jail. Please don't make long-term plans for other people before you even ask them.]
nor_iron_bars: And in my soul am free (No that ain't your style)

[personal profile] nor_iron_bars 2019-08-07 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[On reflection, Jail is pretty down with being on either side of this idea, so long as a pretty girl gets bench pressed by another pretty girl. She considers the question for a moment, trying to remember.]

Don't keep track of it as much as you do, but I think it's around ninety pounds, give or take?

[So, in other words, a little more just by virtue of being larger, but less than someone with Lin's level of training would be able to do if she actually had the advantage of Jail's greater height and weight.]

It's taken him more than a week to return to Lin's office. The fact that he remembered at all is at least some sort of progress. His ever-present guard, Marcel, waits in the hallway while Toki knocks on the door.

[personal profile] yokeye 2019-08-06 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Hello~! Uhh, that's Marcel!

[Marcel gives Lin a nod, but that's his only acknowledgement.]

He let me knock!

[Toki is far too excited about that, perhaps.]

Anyway! I came back because I said that I would, to like learn some breathing things or whatever, because it hasn't been happening a lot, but like, I mean sometimes, I get too like- [There's some flailing hand motions.]- you know!?

[personal profile] yokeye 2019-08-06 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't get to make that decision, unfortunately. It's Marcel that answers her.]

"That is at your discretion, ma'am."

[Toki slips into the office while the guard is talking. It's changed a little since he was last here. He flips through the baby animal wall calendar. So cute.]

Office hours, because this disaster

[personal profile] strings_theory 2019-08-07 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Last month had been eventful to put it mildly. A lot of shit had gone down and she'd at least talked to a few people about some other things and she's huffing softly to herself as she's knocking on that door and casually pacing in front of it, because standing still is not something she has ever done well. And she's sure as shit not sure why she's here, she could run off and not have to deal with this, it's not like she needs to really be here anymore. She hasn't hurt anyone, at least not intentionally, and had been trying to mend bridges on her own.

But she also knew, deep down, that there was other shit to work on and she sure as fuck did not like to talk about things that she had absolutely no control over. Hopefully Lin gets that door soon as she's really about two seconds away from bolting.]

[personal profile] strings_theory 2019-08-07 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Excuse her while she internally screams and curses for about a minute before turning around and rubbing at her face. Right, she's here now, this is unfortunately happening.]

July was kinda rough and I... guess I should update you on some shit? Dunno how this shit works, exactly. Still.
strings_theory: (ida26)

[personal profile] strings_theory 2019-08-08 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[She's just going to internally scream the whole way in, thank you very much. And just take the closest chair to gather herself and rub at her face. Right, this is happening. Great.]

I guess that's the whole point of this, huh.

Training hours and oh god I meant to tag this ages ago

[personal profile] buddinghopes 2019-08-13 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Meditation and breathing techniques are in fact what Lia signed up for in the first place, and the idea of actually learning martial arts hadn't even really occurred to her.

(Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea at some point, but right now, she was more focused on keeping her stresses in check.)

Lia's pretty chipper as she shows up at the gym, her smile as bright as usual.]


Hello!
buddinghopes: (glad to hear it)

[personal profile] buddinghopes 2019-08-16 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Lia's a little calmer than her usual bounce when she approaches, sitting cross-legged on the mat next to Lin.]

I've been enjoying summer as best as I can. Getting some reading done, playing games, spending a lot of time at the pool here... I'm realizing there's so much I want to experience here. It's kind of dizzying sometimes.

[personal profile] buddinghopes 2019-08-17 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! It's really amazing when you think about it... So much to see and try... Even just being overseas from home like this is incredible to me.
