“We try to do it when the weather’s good.” Tristan said a friendly smile on his face before they’d set to working out. The younger brother was covered in a fine sheen of sweat, something that Ian was starting to get covered in as well when Aren spoke to them again.

The brothers stopped talking for a moment to look at Aren, the youngers' blue eyes looking worriedly at the green eyes of his older brother. It was against the rules set in place to go outside the walls without the military escorts… but people still did, many died from not knowing what the heck was out there any more. “The less people that know how to get out the better, less chance of the military dogs blocking up all the exits….why do you wanna get out any way?” Ian asked, his voice a little gruff as he was holding himself up in his pull up with ease, slowly lowering himself before pulling up again, he wouldn't stop his work out just to talk, he could do both at the same time.

“To survive out there you need to know how to shoot, and shoot well, you can’t miss a single shot if you don’t want to get bitten and turned into a Runner.” Ian said with a huff as he pulled himself back up , then down, up and down, the motions came easy to the ginger haired man. He normally kept quiet about his knowledge about outside the wall… because the military might impression him as punishment if they knew that he’d been outside the walls regularly since he and his brother became citizens of this city.

The ginger haired man would have to do unpaid hard labor… and then Tristan wouldn't have any support…. That would be his punishment...part of Ian really wanted to just take all they had in their small apartment and leave, find their own place and set up shop….there were tons of abandoned towns that had not been picked clean…

Looking over at Aren, Ian got the feeling that the boy was a bookworm… he fainted remembered grabbing books for a older man that looked similar to the young man in front of them...Ian never asked questioned about his jobs unless something didn't feel right… then he’d question it till the cows come home… a strange saying that he’d givin up trying to explain to Tristan.
