[ Today is the day Matt is actually going to do physical exercise and train. No, I'm serious. It is.

Watch him having a heart attack in the middle of it.

You may find him getting ready to run, though. Make fun of the guy, or come and help! ]

[braidedwonder]

Gonna survive? [ Have a snickering second in command, Matt, as Duo comes to find him. He's sweaty and less than clean, at the moment, but the fact that he's stripped down to his shoes and shorts should indicate he was in for the hard work anyway, his braid pinned up on his head and off of his neck. ]

You can come on the rest of my run with me, if you want. It's not too much more.

[3rdbest]

[ wow, rude, Duo.

Matt takes a deep breathe. No, he can do this, he really can.. ]

Of course it's not... too much. [ he is going to die ] Let's go, I'm ready. [ someone stop this, this is a terrible idea ]

[braidedwonder]

Alright, if you say so! [ He's well aware that this is going to crash down in flames, but frankly he isn't bothered. It'll be amusing to get to kick Matt's ass every once in a while, right? Duo turns to start jogging again, making sure he's at a pace Matt can keep up with. ]

Tell me if you need a time out or a slow down..

[3rdbest]

[ a pace Matt can keep up with? Aha, that's hilarious.

he does start running, but it's not even one minute until he suddenly stops, wheezing as he attempts to breathe ]

I'm... going... to....die......

[ yeah he didn't even manage ten steps ]

[braidedwonder]

[ Duo looks mildly horrified as he comes to a stop again, eventually finding he can only laugh and put his hands on his hips, wondering what the hell he was going to do with this situation. ]

You've gotta be shitting me. No wonder you got kidnapped, man, you've got charcoal for lungs!

[3rdbest]

For my... defense... I never... actually ran... in my life... [ oh god why. he coughs a bit to clear up his airways and inhale as much oxygen as he can ]

So it's not just... smokes!

[braidedwonder]

Yeah okay, man. Except inactivity means you don't expel that shit from your lungs or whatever and considering I've not seen you do much more than sit around and smoke... [ He raises a brow, watching the other teen with a sigh. ]

This is just pitiful.

[3rdbest]

[ Matt finally regains back his breathe - sort of - and sits on the floor. ]

Oh, give me a break. Not everyone is military, you know? [ you haven't seen what he eats yet, Duo. Matt is overall very unhealthy ]

[braidedwonder]

I'm not military. [ Duo's fast to correct that, at least, and with as little hostility as he can possibly manage, too. Military meant being like the Alliance or OZ, and that wasn't really anything Duo wanted to be compared to or caught up in, honestly. ]

Still, dude, if you're gonna have any hope of getting a bit better at this shit you're gonna have to make some changes, I think. You're not even a third of the way through Trowa and I's daily stuff.

[3rdbest]

Fine- ninja, then. [ he doesn't care about rudeness right now, his heart is still racing like crazy.

Even kids can run more than Matt does. ] yeah, I can imagine...

[anpan_tan]

[A Matt having a heart attack is a very interesting sight, but dying in public is kind of exhibitionist, isn't it?]

I'm not sure what are you doing here but if this is a serious illness you should go to see he medics. If you're trying to do exercises, would you mind if I join?

[3rdbest]

[ it's kind of rude too, isn't it? ]

I'm... fine. [ look at him panting and gasping for air. Of course he is fine. ] Join... I don't mind... [ wow, it's difficult to speak ]

[anpan_tan]

[This is what's called though love. Or though sympathy, in this case.]

Alright. Don't you think you should be less hard on yourself? You didn't do these kind of exercises too often in the past, right? How about stop choking and run around the place ten times as warming?

[3rdbest]

[ HE CAN'T EVEN RUN ONCE AROUND THE PLACE ]

Te...ten?

Do you want me to die?!

[anpan_tan]

[ Don't be angry at him, Matt, this is basically the only thing this Yamazaki is better than you!]

No! I don't want you to die! But why would you die if we run around the place ten times? Is this place cursed? If you run it around ten times something creepy will crawl out of your bed on next Monday and spirits you away?

[He is serious. It's easier for him to believe in ghosts than in the level of Matt's bad physical condition.]

[3rdbest]

...

Yeah, that's totally it. [ a deep breathe. and another. ] That's why you need to run fifty laps and not just ten, to avoid the ghost of Shibusen's murdered trained to come after you.

[anpan_tan]

Fifty laps? You're kidding, right?

[Is this guy mocking him? There's no way such a curse exists...]

Alright, but I'm afraid of ghosts so please accompany me. Fifty laps for our life. It won't be hard.

[Training is the same for Matt what the ghosts are for Yamazaki.]

[3rdbest]

Sorry man, but I'm doomed already. You have to go without me. [ a dramatic expression on his face]

[anpan_tan]

But if I fulfill the wish of the vengeful ghosts with running isn't it possible that they'll go after you for nut running ninty laps as an offering?

[even more dramatic and frightened expression. Yamazaki hopes Matt won't notice that he actually enjoys this.]

[pranksterheir]

[John is strolling by when he sees Matt and pauses.] ... Matt? Are you okay?

[3rdbest]

Yeah- [ he is trying to sound normal, but it's a bit difficult to breath when your lungs are full of tart from smoking and you tried to run a lap ] Just... catching my breathe...

[pranksterheir]

You sound like you just tried to outrun a rabid cheetah.

[3rdbest]

it feels... like that. [ my god. matt is in terrible shape. He sits on the floor ]

Hey. 'Sup. [ deep breathe ] How was the whole rescue thing for you?

[pranksterheir]

[Sits down next to him, curling his legs up pretzel style and patting him on the back. He smiles a little.] I got out in one piece, so I'd say it was a pretty good rescue. How about you?
