Oh! Um--okay! [ He can do this!! I mean he's never before and he's a little uncertain, definitely awkward on his feet since he isn't really much for physical activity himself beyond walking, but. He's going to give it ago, trying to find a pace to match the speed without tripping over himself until he gets a better feel for it. ]

Like this?

[winn]

Yeah, just like this.

[ winn settles in to watch him, starting to jot down notes in his notebook! ]

Get a feel for it and when you're comfortable, we'll up the speed.

[pneumo]

Roger~! [ It'll be about five or six minutes for him to really get comfortable on the thing, the artificial speed and feel of the ground moving beneath his feet incredibly odd at first. But he doesn't break a sweat or even have to pant all that much, so he'll nod to Winn; he's good. ]

Okay...um. I think a little faster is fine.

[winn]

[ winn watches him curiously as he runs, (noting how much better he's doing that winn his first time around, dammit. it was expected, obviously, but come on.)

as soon as he speaks, he gets back up, and turns up the speed for him. ]

How's that?

[pneumo]

It's okay! [ It's a light jog for him since he's not exactly tall like some of the other guys here, but. He's doing well!

...And doing well, and still doing well, and still doing really well even twenty minutes later. ]

...Should I go faster now??

[winn]

Yeah -- you're not getting tired at all?

[ damn. by now, winn would be starting to bargain with jim about stopping. he turns up the speed instead. ]

[pneumo]

Not yet...am I doing it wrong?? [ because that's what he's worried about most here when the speed goes up, herp. ]

[winn]

No - no you're doing great. This is really good, Sascha!

[ he's excited about his accomplishments, a superhero has to be super after all, it's right there in the name! he just wants to make sure he doesn't push himself too hard to please him. ]

[pneumo]

[ Awww...Winn he'd try to please you any day wink wonk ;9




really though he would. ]

Should I keep going faster??

[winn]

[ see sascha this is why he can't tell you anything!! ]

Yeah -- yeah if you can --

[pneumo]

[ :D ]

I think I can... [ Look at him, he's actually beginning to pant a little now!! ]

[winn]

[ and he makes note of that ]

Don't push yourself too hard ok, it's the first day when you feel like you've had enough tell me.

[pneumo]

Well...I'm really used to running away from stuff! So this is pretty easy... [ Stuff: people who want him dead. [

[winn]

But you haven't been running much on the fleet, right?

[ at least, he hopes no one has been chasing him here. he turns up the speed a little bit. ]

[pneumo]

Only when I wanna try keeping up to Bigby! [ So no, no one's chasing him here. But he's holding at an even 10km/h and only just starting to pant. Which is definitely on the higher end of the "fit human" scale. ]

[winn]

[ winn is obviously impressed, and turns up the speed for the last time today, because he doesn't want to do sascha harm - they have time to learn his limitations. ]

You guys manage to hit this speed in these hallways?

[ that's impressive, it means they also have very quick reflexes. ]

[pneumo]

Nah, they're way too small for him! We use the Iskaulit. [ because Bigby's wolf form is the size of an elephant, relatively. He needs a lot of room to boogie. ]

I mean, I can do this is the halls, but he'd get stuck.

[winn]

[ man. he's torn. that's really scary, but he kinda really wants to see it too because that sounds so cool. why couldn't he be the big friendly wolf? ]

Ok next time we're testing your reaction times -

[pneumo]

[ Because Sascha is the puppypire. You'll just have to meet Bigby in the flesh C8 ]

Roger~!

[winn]

[ one of these days he really has to. ]

This is a really great start though - you're not feeling tired?

[pneumo]

Not yet! Should I??

[winn]

Nah, man, I mean I'd be passed out 20 minutes ago but that's the point -

[ you're better, faster, stronger, more heroic! ]

[pneumo]

Really?? This isn't...that hard! [ Okay, panting more now--but nothing tired or laborious yet. It's just the usual huff and puff of trying to talk while jogging. ]

[winn]

Wow -- [ slapping his chest, right over his heart ] right in the pride.

[ rude, sascha! ]

I'm teaching you to hero, not villain!

[pneumo]

Hehe--he! [ You know he's feeling better when he actually tries to joke. ]
