[If one were to pass by the gym and glance inside, they would find Vie. She's bouncing about on the matted floor, practicing fighting motions, flips, turns and going through the actions of general fighting. The girl is moving rather well, footsteps practically silent as she slowly bends to do a lazy handstand. The motion is held for a short moment and then, Vie shifts her weight to balance on her right hand while her left takes place behind her back.

Her expression is one of concentration and she appears, if anything, to be a little annoyed with herself. Setting her hand back to the floor, Vie rolls out of the handstand and moves to her feet. Hands on her hips, the girl breathes a heavy sigh and throws herself into an aerial cartwheel. When she lands again, she rolls her shoulders and tries the action again. It doesn't feel quite right. Vie's out of practise and she's determined to fix that.

With a sigh, she stops and drops to the ground, stretching her legs and muttering to herself in Kirovian. Finally, Vie picks up the comm.]

Illness is something I've not seen on this boat since I arrived here, and yet now with Redd's aid, a large sum of you are sick. If I can be of assistance, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, if anyone would like to spar, I'll be in the gym.

[The comm clicks off. Vie pushes herself to her feet and, after a heavy breath throws herself back into her training.]

T'ink I could use da exuhcise.

Come on then. I'll not be leaving here for a while.

[She's not happy with that aerial and will stubbornly keep at it until she gets it right.]

[Kevas leisurely makes to the gym and enters silently. He leans against the wall, watching her for a moment before announcing himself.]

Quite da acrobat ain't jah?

[Vie turns to flash him a grin before flopping to sit on the mats. She waves him over.]

It pays to be in my line of work. I don't think I'd of survived this long at home without it.

[Stretching to keep her legs straight and hold her feet, Vie glances at him. She's almost disappointed, but determined.]

I'm out of practice.

Joo and me both.

[It might not look like it but he's pretty acrobatic himself. Maybe not as much as her but he's quite used to scaling walls and running across rooftops.

Kevas sets himself next to her and stretches himself out.]

Dat so? Well Loa knows I be needin' a trainin'. Joo can only beat a punchin' bag fuh so long befuh joo start needin' more. I'll beat jah back into shape.

[He smirks playfully at her.]

[Vie lifts her chin a fraction and gives Kevas a playful but challenging look.]

Don't worry, I'll go easy on you. Imagine the embarrassment of being beaten by a girl.

[Grinning, Vie lets go of her feet and moves to stand.]

Be dependin' on da ladymon.

[After all that's how he met his wife.

Kevas stands and rolls his neck, making several satisfying cracks as he does so.]

[Kevas towers over Vie. It's a little intimidating considering he's almost a foot taller than the man she used to train with.]

You're a giant.

[She grins.]

Let's see how hard you fall.

Now joo be noticin'?

[Kevas slowly slips into a defensive stance and gives her a cocky smirk.]

Many tried. None succeeded.

To be fair, I've never faced you quite like this before.

[Her own stance shifts and she starts a slow side step around him.]

Time for a change then. You'll be on your back in no time.

[Oh no she doesn't. Kevas moves in sync with her, not about to let her get behind him.]

We'll see.

[Then, in an explosion of movement, Kevas switches stances, moves in, and aims a swift kick towards her mid-section.]

[It's times like this that being as flexible and bendy as she is comes in handy. The moment his foot is headed her way, Vie drops to her knees, leaning back as she goes until she's effectively under his leg. It's a narrow miss, but a miss all the same.

Once there, she tries to grab the leg that had flown for her side. If successful, Vie will try to push it up and throw him off balance.]

[Kevas feels her grab his leg and push him upwards. Instead of fighting Kevas just goes with the flow, falling backwards and catching himself with a handstand. He quickly springs to his feet and comes at her again, this time from a different angle.

He strikes at her side with his knee but it's just a feint. The real attack is a quick jab at her jaw. If it hits Kevas hopes it's enough to daze her.]

[A shot at her pretty little face? Kevas, that's terrible! She grins when he recovers and, when his knee comes her way, Vie focuses her attention on avoiding it. The strike her her jaw is noticed far later than she would like and while she does pull back to avoid it, Vie fails to do so. Kevas smacks her across the jaw. Her vision clouds for a second but she doesn't stop moving.

She drops onto her back, letting momentum from the hit aid her in a backwards roll. The second she's back on her feet, Vie lunges for him. The Valei is keeping low, trying one last knock to his legs to bring him down before she switches tactic entirely.]

[Sorry Vie but he's not taking it easy on you, sister or not. He's not about to insult her by taking it easy on her. Besides this gives him a chance to see what she's got.

Kevas moves as she moves. When she lunges, he springs backwards. Vie is fast, as fast as him if not faster, but he has one advantage over her. Kevas has plenty of reach and he intends on putting it to use. The troll strikes at Vie with a quick kick towards her shoulder.]
