	It was true that he was naturally gorgeous but nature only took you so far, you had to work at it if you wanted to look really good and- Well, who wouldn't? He couldn't understand how anyone could just let themselves go, had they no pride and personal standards? Quite apart from the vanity aspect if you didn't keep fit then you were more likely to meet an untimely end out in the field, and that was not an experience he cared to repeat. KO went to the gym about four times a week and the pool once or twice a week, this afternoon saw him in the latter making use of one of the bikes at present. Much as he knew how necessary exercise was an felt good afterwards KO did not actually enjoy the process of working out. It was uncomfortable, you got hot and sweaty and generally looked unglamorous even if you picked decent clothes as he did: red running shorts and a clean white tank top. He was nearly done with the bike though, his playlist had just got to the final track he'd assigned for this exercise; a couple more minutes of burning in his thighs and he'd be done. Ugh!

	TawnyAngel He would have preferred to work out earlier in the morning, when there were fewer people about, but work came first, and he'd had things to attend to. But now he was finished, and sort of waiting for the next assignment, so he hit the gym. Mau had 2 punching bags set up. Even though he'd hated it as a kid, Mau continued to practice Kuta. It had probably saved his life more then once and at this stage in his life, it was still really good exercise and kept him sharp. The punches were loud, sharp, and quick. He was attacking the two hanging punching bags, almost as if he were being ganged up on. Kuta was all about reflex. Take your natural reflex actions and turn them into an attack. He was sort of lost in his own little world of training. Working out always got his blood pumping and he loved it. He didn't love wearing a sweaty shirt until he got to the locker room, so he just discarded it completely. His wrists and ankles were taped up for stability, and the white wrappings matched his white shorts.

	Lural When the track finally ended KO climbed off the bike, took a long drink from his water bottle and then towelled the sweat off his face. With said towel in one hand and water in the other he stretched briefly and then started to walk around the gym while he waited for his heart rate to come back down. There were a few people around who he recognised and exchanged brief greetings with but they were understandably occupied, and he was still too out of breath to hold much in the way of a conversation. After a minute or so KO - feeling a little more human - spotted a tall familiar figure, one had hadn't seen in quite a while. Shrugging internally KO headed over, he was due a rest before he moved onto weights anyway. A polite distance away from Mau KO came to a halt, took another swig of his water and said; "Well you look like you're having fun." There were always a few who trained with their shirts off, because of course there were. He understood the urge to show off of course, sweat and exertion just wasn't his personal brand of vanity but each according to his tastes and so on.

	TawnyAngel The sudden voice might have actually startled Mau, not that he'd admit it, and he punched the bag on the side KO was on a little harder then he'd intended, and stopped as it swung lazily. He looked up at the familiar redhead. "Hey." he wiped his face with the back of his hand before walking over to his towel and grabbed it. Mau wasn't really one to show off. He really just didn't like sweaty clothes. Though he wasn't ashamed of his body either. He had a few scars here and there. The exploding hedgehog, the falling chandelier, the grizzly broken arm, and goddamn nail gun all left fair marks on him. "You look like you've had your fun for the day." He said, nodding to KO.

	Lural "Oh, well for a given definition of fun perhaps," KO replied dryly, swinging his towel over his shoulder and taking another deep drink of water. Ugh, sweaty and tired and not in the fun way. "It's necessary though, one must keep oneself in shape. Other than having fun how have you been doing? I don't think I've seen you in a while." Had he seen him since...? No, he didn't think he had. Hu. "You look well," KO offered as an afterthought, anyone exerting themselves like that had to be pretty well.

	TawnyAngel "It has been a while. Too long, really." A lot had happened, and he wasn't... on base as much anymore. "I suppose I'm well enough." Well enough for someone who was waiting for approval for another batch of material, as it were. He took a few deep breaths, then began stretching, to cool down. He flexed his back, his arms, and made sure to keep breathing easy as he wound down. "I've been buried in work." he sighed. "A roller coaster of paperwork and waiting for approval for this and that. You know how it goes." He wasn't sure he felt like working out much anymore. "And you? What have you been up to?" He didn't particularly want to focus on his work at the moment.

	Lural Sorry for the delay! KO shrugged. "Oh you know, this and that." Being dead. The red-haired man's smile tensed a little and he pushed the thought to the back of his mind, or tried to anyway. "I've been working on a few things with Agent Tambery, tailoring beautiful clothes, and pondering a project or two of my own. Of course as a grunt I don't have access to the best of materials and I have to work on ideas in my own time but overall I suppose I can't complain." Except that he could, and he would - at length - if it were anything else but this... this he didn't want to think or talk about. "Oh, but you must come into Sandalwood with me soon," KO continued, shifting his weight to his other hip and slowly starting to relax again as he moved away from the unpleasant thoughts. "There's a new club that's opened up just last month, not... what did I call it? Oh yes, 'specialised' but it has a good atmosphere and zero tolerance on bad behaviour. Their cocktails are excellent and the music selection is always good, so if you get an evening off let me know."
