Kyren entered the gym, and immediately noticed the collection of people already within, giving them little more than a friendly glance before heading to the weight machine. She had to tinker with it a bit quickly to set it to her desired settings, but was quickly ready to start her bench pressing.

An Andorian female entered the gym and caught Kree’s eye as she moved to the weights area. Talyn took the opportunity to dismount the treadmill and thoroughly wipe her face and neck down with the small towel in her hand. Once she felt a little more presentable, she addressed Melalia. “If you like, we can talk about it over dinner tonight. Or, if you’d like more privacy, we can meet just the two of us and figure out something for you to do.”

Kyren took a short breath, then began to push hard against the mechanism, straining her arm and chest muscles to force the weight above her, before slowly releasing that tension, only to repeat it a few moments later. For several minutes, she lost herself in the simple rhythm of her workout.

About ten minutes later, she set the machine back to its starting position, and rolled off the bench, to work a different cluster of muscles.
