It had been a long time since Liam had had much opportunity to really stretch his legs, or work on keeping in shape. When he'd been in soccer it had been a daily affair. Running in the evening, practice or training after school most days. He'd taken it serious, and it had showed. Not just on the field, but also in general. The boy was short, but he was lean, trim, and even with the lose of weight from not eating enough, he still managed to hang onto the muscle definition he'd maintained since high school. He was at the gym, upper body bare, jersey tucked into the back of his shirts. At the moment he had one leg curled in close, the other stretched out, and he was laying over the later with hands laced across the bottom of his shoe, stretching. This would be good. A chance to burn off a little excess energy, work through a bit of stress. It was cathartic, mindless and soothing.

Quote: There is a bar still attached to the wall, do some pull-ups! Austin, in contrast, didn't really work out a whole lot -- aside, perhaps, from the occasional adventure running, maybe the odd sit-up. He'd found his way to this room not out of intent but out of chance, circling and wandering until he came up at a doorway that was -- well. It was entertaining. He watched Liam for a very long moment before making a faint sound: pleased, amused, and a warning that he was there. For his own part, he just poked around the room, mostly just watching the other man instead of actually making any effort. He settled at the pull up bar, one hand on it, and he'd risk one pull-up, maybe. While Liam wasn't looking.

For once Liam didn't jump at the sound of another person approaching. Instead he turned his head, cheek against his own shin, to look up at Austin (apparently just missing the attempted pull up), trying to gauge his expression. It had never been easy. Well, no. Liam usually knew what was on the other man's mind, the trick was figuring out where those impulses would take him. Probably down aggravating avenues. When he had finished stretching he rose up onto his feet, bouncing on his toes as her surveyed the gym and what equipment was left to them. There really wasn't much. A few free weights, a few mounted walls, the track, and some mats. It was the latter he headed for, sinking down to hands and knees. "Do you need something, Austin?" It didn't look like he was working out. A glance his way, then he was stretching his feet back and sinking down in a smooth push up that made the muscles in his arms and shoulders bunch.

Quote: Time to do some curl-ups. "Just making use of the facilities." Maybe it would have been wiser for Austin to take off his shirt, too, to show off a little -- except that had never really been Austin's strength. He was better at this aloof sort of comfort in any situation, watching like he was too good to join in the proceedings. Practice, after all, made perfect. All the same, in demonstration he did one curl-up, to prove that he really was here to work out, and it wasn't a terrible one, either. Hardly expert, but Austin wasn't that out of shape. He could manage it. He raised an eyebrow at Liam.

That had the younger man pausing, tossing an incredulous look Austin's way before he finished up a set of twenty quick push ups. After he rolled back on his heels, elbows resting on his thighs. "Uh huh. Because you've always been such a fan of working out." Actual sarcasm. With a huff he bent, laying his palms flat against the mat in front of his feet, holding the pose for a count of ten before straightening again and rotating left, then right from the waist up. He'd always loved the way stretching felt. That subtle, protesting tug of muscles.

"This is a new world, isn't it?" A pause, and then Austin settled next to Liam, mirroring his actions -- with a little less enthusiasm, with a little less aggression. It was the act of someone going through the motions, without actually trying. As Austin did in pretty much all things. After, he sat back to watch Liam finish up, under the pretense of stretching out one leg, his eyes bright and amused. "Maybe I'm going to put on fifty pounds of muscle."

Quote: Don't wanna do push ups again, bumping up to curl-ups "Uh huh." He didn't sound convinced. In fact he was actually smiling now, amused as he laced his fingers then stretched his arms up over his head. "You look real into fitness, there." With a small chuckle he went for the bar Austin had been standing under before, hopping up to grab it so he could pull himself up, making it look easy.

Quote: Push ups are the way to go "Imagine how I'd look, though, with fifty more pounds of muscle." It was just a tiny bit sly, his head cocked to watch Liam sideways as he did two pushups: just barely enough to say he'd done not only A pushup, but pushups, plural. Then he was about done with this, not really a huge fan of working out in several layers of sweater and his own caked in grime. He'd sit to watch Liam finish up, instead, though.
"It's a tempting thought."

It was a set of 20 reps again, Liam drawing himself up in smooth curls before dropping to the floor again and giving Austin a look. "You look fine now." He couldn't imagine him looking any differently than he did now. Certainly a bit of endurance couldn't hurt, but actual building? Naw. Wouldn't have suited him at all. Belatedly, as if it had taken him a moment to realize what exactly he'd said, a splash of color touched Liam's face. He turned, eyes dropping, before eyeing the sad set of free-weights that were laying on the mat. He went for them, sinking down on the bench as he grabbed one of the weights. A little lighter than he was used to, but since he hadn't had access to anything close to this for a while it would do alright.

Austin couldn't help the sudden flash of a grin that spread across his face with those words, couldn't help the slow raise of his eyebrows -- and, really, that was everything he could possibly have wanted and hoped for by coming down here. No need for him to continue playing at working out when that unbidden bit of insight came spilling out of Liam's lips. He stood, instead, shaking himself out and rolling a shrug as he started back toward the door. "Maybe, but shouldn't we always be striving to improve ourselves?"

The grin just made the blush darker, and Liam put his best effort into n not looking his way again.[ Which worked, at least at first. He started bringing the weight up in small curls, counting, mostly ignoring Austin, though he could feel those green eyes on him. It was as he spoke that Liam looked up again, glancing sidelong towards the door and the other boy as he headed for it. "There is a difference between improvement and show muscles." It was hard to tell if he was answering that honestly, or simply returning the banter.

From the doorway, Austin paused again -- with a flash of teeth back toward Liam. "Well, can you think of any other way to improve me?" He didn't wait for an answer: just started away. Let Liam stew on it.
