Daniel wakes up slowly again, sated from before. He doesn't know how long he's been asleep, but he is hungry again. He takes a shower and returns to his room, but this time doesn't see anyone on his way there. Robe-clad again, he begins to explore at the end of the hallway, he sees a gym and one man in it, powering through an impressive amount of weights.
He enters just as the man is finishing a set. He sits up, then stands up, and Daniel is immediately surprised by several things. One, that he is 6'2" and the most muscular man Daniel's ever seen, that his belly, though large, is somehow tight and quite round, and that he doesn't look in the face to be much older than Daniel himself.
The boy offers his handshake and a name of Lance. Daniel nods and accepts both. Lance indicates the bench next to him, and tosses him a water bottle. Daniel takes a sip and nearly spits it out in surprise.
"It's my special blend of protein shake. Peter's scientists cooked it up. Helps me maximize all my gains."
Daniel shrugs and drinks some more. When not expecting water, the shake actually tastes pretty good.
"Thanks."
"No problem. Say, I'm finished here. Did you want to work out?"
