Week one

[letsplayamod]

You've all met Athena, and she's made her point quite clear. She's fully committed to making this world better, and you're the ones who agreed to lend a hand. Something she's obviously quite thankful for.

It's really not so bad around here. Despite the sky, and the state of the land, things are fairly calm. You've got plenty of time to get used to it, and each other. Maybe this'll be easier than it seems.

JOCKS GOING ON JOGS LETS GO

[catsgothistongue]

[Ferdinand isn't the only early bird in their pantheon. Somebody else had gotten up before the rest broke from their slumber. It was habit at this point, even without his old man acting as his alarm clock (trans. getting booted out of bed and into the nearest pond). And after yesterday, getting the meet a literal goddess, being granted godhood and unforeseen power and status that comes with the title, Ranma couldn't stay asleep for long.

Hence...]

Yo, Ferdie!

[The ex-noble will hear and see a certain pigtailed boy during his job. He was wearing the black sweat shirt like he normally does, with his red Tang shirt draping over the branch he was hanging upside by the legs. Because as nifty as the training grounds Athena laid out for them was, nothing beats going back to what he's familiar with.

Ranma's arms remain behind his head while he does one more crunch, with a casual upside-down smile on his face.]

Y'going for a run?

[markofnobility]

Ranma! Good morning!

[Ferdinand at least had the foresight to dress down- as much as his jacket and other layers are built to soak blows and handle long rides, they are a bit... heavy... for running. So he's in just his blouse with the sleeves rolled up, alongside his trousers and thick boots]

That I am. The early morning is ideal for burning off some energy!

[catsgothistongue]

Couldn't agree with ya' more.

[Like he isn't constantly overflowing with all energy of an hyperactive orange cat on catnip. With an 'alley-oop', he drops down to the ground, maneuvering his body mid-fall to land on his feet with acrobatic poise.]

Mind if I join you? These last two hours have been so boring without someone else 'round to train with!

[he's already taking his shirt off the branch and tying it around his waist without waiting for the other man's answer]

[markofnobility]

[Ranma gets a small clap for his impressive agility]

Yes, of course my friend! I find pace easier to keep with company as well.

[catsgothistongue]

[Please, save your applause... oh who are we kidding Ranma beams at having his athleticism recognized he'd love more claps.

Ranma gives the tied sleeves a few test tugs, satisfied to see it's taut. Ferdie's words earn him a toothy grin. Getting a head start, the martial artist moves past their resident himbo at a steady gait. Though once Ferdie follows suit and closes in, Ranma coincidentally starts picking up his pace.]

Ditto! Normally, Pop'd be kicking me out of bed at this hour. But since that panda isn't here, you'll have to do for now.

[Bring it on, his playful cadence unsubtly says]

[markofnobility]

[He chuckles warmly, picking up pace to keep up]

I usually do not HAVE to be up this early, but I find my day goes better when I have some personal time before my duties.

[catsgothistongue]

[His laxed amble soon kicks up into a modest jog, while nodding sagaciously]

I've always been a bit of an early bird, but true that. Ain't nothing better than gettin' to chill before havin' to deal with annoying or dull crap, like school.

[He's already seeing one benefit of being a god: getting to cut classes]

[markofnobility]

I am a few years out from schooling myself, but I certainly remember those days. Having to drag myself from the comfort of bed for study always filled me with a bit of dread.

[catsgothistongue]

Tell me 'bout it. Being in a stuffy classroom all day, learning stuff I don't really care for, stoppin' the principal from shaving off guys' hair... It's all gets to be a drag after the first week!

[markofnobility]

Shaving off their hair?!

[catsgothistongue]

Guy's a total loon with a capital L. He spent the first school year vacationing in Hawaii, and was so obsessed with the place that he made it his whole personality. Second only to havin' all his screws loose. When he came back, he tried enforcing these crappy rules like mandated hairdos; girls had to have bob cuts, guys had to have their heads fully shaved. And if nobody listened--

[he opens and closes two fingers like they're scissors. snip snip!]

I kick his ass every time though, so now he's only after me and my pigtail.

[Ranma kicks up the pace a notch to take the lead. Catch up slowpoke!]

[markofnobility]

[Ferdinand pushes to keep up- it's not that difficult, but it does get harder to talk the faster they go]

He sounds completely unprofessional. Teachers are the bedrock of society and should be held to such a standard!

[catsgothistongue]

[git gud ferdie, cuz Ranma's turning around to flex talk face-to-face while running backwards. He shoots the other a bemused expression and a faint titter]

Unprofessional? Pssh, c'mon man, you can say something worse than that! He ain't here to stop ya'.

[and even if he was ranma would implore ferdie to to his face]

[markofnobility]

Well then: he sounds like a complete bastard?

[He groans at the new display of Ranma's agility]

Now you are just showing off. I will not help you up if you trip!

[catsgothistongue]

[Atta lad! Though Ranma would've said something much more scathing but for now, it's a 7.3!

Cocking his head to the side.]

C'mon Ferdie, I'm not showing-- Whoops!

[Right on cue, his heel catches itself on a stone sending him on a collision course to eat shit...

... if he hadn't caught himself in a handstand, continuing on walking with his hands while looking at Ferdie with the smuggest expression known to man. This, my friend, is him showing off.]
