It would seem all that hard exercise Kyon's been going through as of late is beginning to show some results! Nothing overt, mind. But his clothes are hanging off him a bit better than they used to, and there's evidence of some musculature beginning to build up. Which is helping him currently as he does some grunt work on the complex as one of the smaller jobs; mostly just moving boxes around in storage.

At some point, though, he has to take a break, so he heads out, heading towards the cafeteria.

["I have to admit, it hadn't occurred to me exactly how out of shape I was until I started doing all this. Everything seems a little easier to do now. I guess there's something to be said about have a solid reason to improve.

Also, I wonder if I should gloat about the fact they managed to catch one of the thieves based on something I figured out? I guess I should be humble about it though. It's not like I actually caught the guy, after all."]

This does not, mind, prevent him from having a BIT of a strut in his walk.

Ranma has been doing about the same job, handing boxes over, and is walking to the caf as well.

Okay, so he's doing it on top of a chain-link fence, but that's just how he is.

"It's meatloaf today, right?"

["Showoff. Not that it's surprising."]

I think so. Boy, the appearance of the chef aside, I have to admit the quality of the food went up when they hired him.

[kenpo-ichiban.livejournal.com]

I really don't care what he looks like so long as he washes his... forelegs.

Guess I wasted the good luck I worked up on coming after you hired a decent cook, huh?

[Snake returned from dealing with the constant CODEC chatter, and boy is he exhausted]

Ah. Hey Kyon.

[moonlitwarrior.livejournal.com]

[When Kyon reaches the cafeteria, he may or may not notice this girl scarfing down a whole pile of food.]

[scatterflower]

Hey! How's it going?

[thetypingbug.livejournal.com]

"Bibikeebeep!"

Cheryl chirps that in greeting and waves from through the little window into the cafeteria's kitchen. She's got a chef hat over her antennae and an apron on, and several vats of colorful stuff sit in double-boilers on the stove behind her.

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

I suppose. Why, been having a rough time of it lately?

["Get splashed with cold water one too many times?"]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

Hi, Snake. What's up? You look exhausted.

["I thought I was the one who usually looked exhausted between the two of us."]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

["Is she even tasting any of that? Where is all that food going, anyway?"]

Geez, and they say teenaged guys have huge appetites.

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

Hey Chika. Well enough, I guess. It's sort of weird getting used to having a room all to myself, though.

[kenpo-ichiban.livejournal.com]

You ever have a problem that you KNOW you can't deal with, Kyon?

[scatterflower]

Oh, I see.

It wasn't that weird for me when I briefly had it, but well... I guess if you had a roommate for a long time it would be.

[onlyatrainkillr.livejournal.com]

I had to deal with the rest of Philanthropy's panic over the island's disappearance.

[He rubs his eyes with his arm, grumbling slightly]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

Depends. We talking something that's a matter of communication or a matter of something else?

["Like ancient Chinese curse."]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

Ugh, sorry to hear it. I can only imagine what CO's going to have to do to cover all this up.

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

He was my roommate pretty much ever since I came here. I mean, he explained his reasons for leaving and all, but it's still kind of sad.

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

["I think we can safely say that we're one of the only cafeterias in existence that can have so many bugs in the kitchen and not be considered a health violation."]

Hey Cheryl. Having fun there?

[scatterflower]

[Chika frowns a bit.]

Oh...

You going to be okay?

[kenpo-ichiban.livejournal.com]

I just found the first problem I can't punch out.

[Well, the first two.]

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

What would that be, then?

[sossanity.livejournal.com]

I'll manage. I've seen a lot of people I know come and go. It just takes a bit of time, really. Though I'm sure they'll stick me with someone who'll make me REALLY wish the guy hadn't left in no time.

[scatterflower]

[Chika couldn't help but giggle at that.]

Yeah, with the way this place is, soon you'll find yourself with an obnoxious spoiled brat of a girl or something.

[demon-hacker.livejournal.com]

Yo, Kyon.

[Someone else is entering the cafeteria after a long, intense morning of . . . grinding for levels, but hey, they're both working hard.]

I haven't seen you in a while. Everything going alright?

[onlyatrainkillr.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised that the Pentagon hasn't found a way to angle this so I get the blame for it honestly.
