Vitus- "This ... This will do."
Vitus pulled his sedan into a parking spot near a construction site. He had Eli shotgun and Vicier babies in the back seat. Vitus- "The building is wide open still, so invitation won't be an issue. Also the way the site is enclosed, they won't be bothering to pay for night security to do more than drive by. With the car legally parked, they won't see a thing."

Hunter- "Ooh, I'm kind of nervous, honestly. I got out of taking gym since middle school." Jess- "Me too. Asthma."

Vitus and the rest got out. Vitus- "The way we climb requires no strength... Well, perhaps strength of will."
Jess- "I just can't win. Haha."

Hunter- "Aw Jess, you have plenty of willpower! Suffering though all those student shows, and that atrocious pre-revolutionary ceramics exhibit. Yeesh, that display... The bloody museum putty showing? I almost cried."
Hunter folded his gangly arms and stayed a few paces back. Hunter- "Uh, but I guess we'll let you workout boys demonstrate."

Jess figured out & / or remembered Eli had been an art student and was the kind of person to try to make everyone feel nice. Jess- "Some of the student shows were great, but you know, the other kids, that don't take it seriously tend to drag down the whole experience." Vitus- "A demonstration from the youths to see where their skills are going in. Everyone get over the fence. No instruction."
Jess- "Um... I think I can manage."
She went to the fence and started climbing over. You could tell she was playing it safe by putting the heels of her hands near areas in the slatted chain link that might support her if the vamp power slipped.

Hunter watched from the sidelines as Jess climbed. Hunter- "Haha, oh of course, we all have our student shows, right? I'm sure you guys will need way more willpower to avoid talking smack about my performance here. Embarassiiiing!" Hunter- "So, I can imagine some amusing applications for this, but how would we use this skill day to day? Wouldn't people see us? And wouldn't it be easier to just take an elevator or walk around or whatever? Is it just to teach us how to be a well-rounded... uh, vampire?"

Jess got out of sight, with awkward noises. Vitus hopped over to watch her landing. Jess Voice- "Uh... Hi." Vitus- "Hey. Now Hunter?"

Hunter- "I feel like I should come up with a good joke so you can be laughing at that instead of at me!" He glanced over his shoulder a few times with a 'don't make me do this' expression before feebly pulling himself up, scrawny arms straining. Hunter- "Ughhh this sucks, hahaha..." He scrambled weakly, shoes slipping on the slats. He climbed over awkwardly and got his shirt caught in the metal for a moment.Hunter (out of sight)- "Okay, never tell anyone about that. Haha..."

Jess- "Yiii! Spooky." Vitus- "I don't think you guys'll be able to do that one."
Jess- "Oh well."

Hunter- "Oh, that's your special family thing? I wonder what ours is going to be." Hunter- "Probably something that sucks, haha... So um, what's next?"

Vitus- "It's a bit complicated, but yeh, never seen someone other than a Sombreta do the shadow cloud."
Jess- "I hope I get something at random. Doesn't feel very likely."
Vitus- "That's fine. You'll be fine. So. Climbing for real. We're going to climb up the girders on the side of this thing, all the way to the top."

Vitus- "Athleticism has nothing to do with powers. Practice and challenges are the most important." Vitus- "So climbing..? I haven't really had to put it into words before. Feels like, it's something to do with just your sense of direction, gravity. Try to make it like... so that the girder is down. Right?"
Jess- "Ugh. Not looking forward to it."

Hunter- "Wow, it's kind of like... metaphysical? That's wild."
Hunter- "I guess it's like how when you lie on your back and imagine that the ceiling is the floor? That's pretty cool. Hope the floor never becomes lava, am I right? Haha..."
{originally} Eli - "It'll be okay, don't worry. I can catch you guys if you fall. " Eli - "Well, lava floor would be a good motivator. Maybe avoid Greyburns, though, they can make you think the floor is lava, at least. " Eli - "Let me give you guys a bit more instruction though. So you know your center of gravity, right? That's the most important aspect to this trick. You have to really push it onto the girder, feel your weight shift. That's the key, even more than using your hands and feet."

Vitus- "Better than my explanation. Want a demonstration?"
Jess- "Yeah, maybe one of you guys goes up first."
