Mac Pulls a Muscle
Who: Mac and Aleifr, Mac and anyone else who wants to say "huh?"
What: Mac invents a new exercise move!
Where: The Training Area
When: in relation to events/plots if needed
Warnings/Notes: Your usual Macness - bigotry of all stripes, alcoholism, bizarre misreadings of religion, etc. More info here. Also, prose or brackets are up to you!
Mac’s been scarce at the gym, not because he doesn’t go, but because, like the public showers, it’s a place where the other Hires just don’t get it. Mac’s near bulletproof to criticism, on account of the fact that he knows who he is and he knows that person is the consummate badass who’s just working with subpar equipment and suffering the deleterious effects of a cafeteria that doesn’t appreciate the need to carbo-load.
But he can’t seem to get the others in the Hires to see things his way, and so he’s staggered his exercise schedule as much as possible so that he doesn’t have to run into them as much. If they’re not going to appreciate him, he’s not going to grace them with this exquisite specimen of manly capacity. Why bother vying for the approval of people who just don’t get it? Mac certainly doesn’t have time for that.
(Mac always has time for that. Just not here.)
So he’s here at a weird hour - he hasn’t been sleeping well at all since he got here, worse now that Peter isn’t there - doing that body-weight stuff to keep his pump going. He’s developed a new move called The Humper, which is a little like a dolphin pushup but with your back rounded for maximum compression on your pectorals and your glutes raised up in the namesake hump to get a good stretch in your calves. The corporate towel boy snickered at him when he tried to demonstrate, but again - these bozos just don’t get it.
It’d be nice to run into someone who does, though.

"You think there's a 'Big Fitness'?" he says. "Ah, I hate to break it to you, but I learned proper form during my time in the military."
