You did this to yourself

Covet: Felix was in the rock climbing area of the gym, looking up at the wall, considering it. He was feeling antsy as all fuck, and was looking for any excuse to get his jitters out at this point. He knew why he was so spazzed out, trying his hardest to cut back, just to beat Steph. Unfortunately, the lack of nicotine was making him rather testy.
Alexithymiaa: -Steph was in the process of pulling a pair of gloves onto her hands to protect them while rock climbing, securing the velcro around her wrists before looking over at Felix. "Have you ever done this before?" She asked, beginning to jog in place with high knees.-
Covet: "Once or twice, but it wasn't ever anything real steep. And it was in nature." Felix said sounding almost, uppity about it while watching her. "Typically there's paths you can follow if you look at the different grips and footholds." He stretched out his back some, then his legs as he pulled his shirt off and his sweat pants where his shorts were on underneath.
Alexithymiaa: "And on the contrary, I've done this a million times, but never in nature." She rolled her shoulders back a few times to loosen them up, her breath already growing a little short from all the stationery jogginng she was doing. "Did you tie off?" She asked as she walked to get herself a harness, stepping into it and pulling it up to tighten the straps.-
Covet: "Oh well then... Look at you." He said shaking his head, then looked at her, "Of course." Felix told her as he walked over to get himself set up into a harness. He reached into the chalk bag and put some on his hands, clapping them a couple of times to dust them off. "I'd ask if you want to race, but I don't want anyone getting hurt."
Alexithymiaa: "We have harnesses, who's going to get hurt?" She asked with a roll of her eyes, chalking her gloved hands also and rubbing them together. Stepping in front of the wall, she clipped herself into the cord the was danging in front of her, her eyes shifting over to him. "I say we race."-
Covet: "Alright I'll watch you from the top, Red. Sure you don't want a five second headstart?" He laughed, "You ready? First one to the top wins." He told her getting himself set so that he could jump up to get as high as possible.
Alexithymiaa: "Excuse you, your arms and legs might be longer, but I'm still better and can compensate for your natural advantage. I used to do piked rope climbs." She stepped to the wall, glancing upward at the path she was figuring for herself before beginning to count. "Ready? Three, two, one, go!" On go she jumped up, grabbing a hold of the rocks and pulling herself up quickly.-
Covet: Felix jumped up and pulled himself up, before grabbing the secondary grip he'd seen and found himself a foothold. The strain on his muscles felt good. He was taking his time and being calculated with where chose to climb up at. It almost seemed effortless, but even he was starting to get distracted.
Alexithymiaa: (DOES NOTHING TOP CIGARETTES?)
Covet: [He's only smoked 3 today, but that's because he's getting too competitive right off the get go, and it's just making him irritated where if he wasn't trying to over do it... he wouldn't be so hyper focused like this. XD]
Covet: [It's going to blow up in his face]
Alexithymiaa: -Steph kept a very fast pace, being much less calculated with her choices than Felix, but it was working for her pretty well thus far. As she started to near the top, she could feel herself struggling to catch her breath, beginning to get a little light headed, but NOTHING WILL STOP HER FROM WINNING! She persisted.-
Alexithymiaa: (Its okay, they match.)
Covet: [lol]
Covet: Felix was watching Steph seeing her get closer to the top. His focus broke just long enough fro him to grab the wrong hand hold, causing him to slip, "Shit! Shit.... shit... Dammit Red! Stop distracting me." He said having fell down a couple feet.
Alexithymiaa: -She broke into a laugh which wasnt helping her breathing situation as she spared a glance down at him before pushing on. "Sucks for you!" She called out as she reached the top, patting her hand on the top of the wall as an almost signifier that she won. She inhaled sharply, the edges of her vision beginning to cloud with darkness before she lost consciousness. Her body slipped off the wall, but thankfully she was wearing that harness so she only dropped a few feet before slumping against the wall. But shes breathing and everythings fine she's not dead, we're okay. Just fainting. WE'RE GOOD.-
Covet: Felix glared up at Steph as she reached the top, then watched her drop, "Steph!" He called out then pushed off the wall so that he could get back to the ground and help get her lowered. He eased her down, until she was laying on the floor then went over to her so he could unhook her out of the harness, "Steph... Hey... Wake up...Are you alright?"
Alexithymiaa: -She started to come to once she was on the floor, her eyes prying open with furrowed brows, her head instantly starting to pound. She wiggled her toes in her shoes when she felt the pins and needles in them, taking a deep breath and staring up at him a bit confused. "I don't remember coming down..."-
Covet: "That's because you passed out at the top." He said looking over her with a concerned look on his face. " We shouldn't have done this, I didn't think this would be too much for you. How's everything feeling?"
Alexithymiaa: "Oh..." Her expression grew worried, slowly sitting up and pressing the heel of her palm to her forehead. "I have a headache, but otherwise fine. Tired..." She closed her eyes, shaking her head very slowly. "It shouldn't have been too much. It should have been fine. I'm always fine. But I still won...."-
Covet: "You did Red. You did." He said looking at her, "Maybe... you should make an appointment tomorrow? Make sure it's nothing serious? We're definitely done for tonight though." Felix said, getting the harness off of her.
Alexithymiaa: -She pursed her lips, letting out a small breath. "I guess it couldn't hurt to call and see when I could set something up. Just to be sure it was nothing. I just hate being poked and prodded at. It sucks." She slowly moved her legs underneath her, climbing to her feet gently until she was upright. "I'm sorry if I ruined your fun."-
Covet: "You didn't it's fine. Don't worry about it." Felix told her, helping her stand up. "I'll go with if that makes getting poked and prodded easier?"
Alexithymiaa: "Well that's disappointing because I assumed you wanted to win as much as I did." she flashed him a quick grin, giving a shrug. "It might make it tolerable."-
Covet: "It's alright. If I wanted to win, I wouldn't have gotten distracted in the first place." Felix told her then smiled putting his arm around her so they could head out of the gym.
