It would seem that their time for mountain activities had passed, as class was being held back in the gym again, and it was very clearly going to be a classic return to form in the spirit of your typical phys ed class, if the stacks of colorful scooters were any indication.

Not that Gladio imagined his students would have that much in the way of knowing the cultural significance there; hell, even he'd only learned about this sort of thing after he'd started teaching gym classes, but it was apparently a staple, and so he wasn't about to let class finish up without dragging them out, and the final class was definitely already reserved for something else.

"Hope you're all ready to watch your fingers," he announced, "because today? We've got scooters. Now, these scooters are a popular activity for gym classes, it's fun, it's got a little element of danger with the potential of rolling over your fingers, and it can be a surprisingly good workout. Plus you guys'll get to see me on one of these things, which, believe me, is a sight to behold. I got a few activities centered around using the scooters, so let's take a few moments to warm up and stretch out and then we'll get right to it."

"I don't want a professional," she said quietly. "I want you.

She lifted a foot toward him. "Please."

There was a soft smile at that, and a nod, and, almost with a gentleness that bordered on reverence, Gladio carefully took Nell's foot in his hands. "Just kick me," he suggested lightly, "if it starts to tickle."

But he was definitely going to be careful not to, and he was clearly being careful to start somewhat lightly, his thumb seeking out and experimenting a little with what spots might work , how much pressure she might like, and just putting those big hands of his to good work.

"So," he then asked, as he worked, "why pink, anyway? I would've thought....green, or something. Or was that a little too..."

There was a pause, not in his massage, that kept lightly going and responding to whatever feedback he could get from Nell's reactions in the moment, but just in his words, almost like he was trying to talk himself out of continuing, but he was clearly going with it anyway.

"....on the toes?"

Her small feet almost disappeared in his hands. She watched his face as he worked, so intent on what he was doing. It took her a minute to refocus on what he'd said and then she laughed.

"That's terrible." She smiled at him. "I don't really know why pink. Liliana said I should pick something fun and well, that's what I saw. Green would have been... I don't know. I guess this looked more fun."
