[ Ashe has a problem. Or, maybe an inconvenience? Regardless of how he phrases it, it's this: his soulmate mark makes him look tougher than he is. Not that he holds it against this soulmate of his that he's yet to meet, but... given the lion-emblazoned shield with multiple swords sticking out of it on his bicep, he can't help but wonder about the type of person they are. (and if they'd even be a good match.)
Going to the gym was initially Caspar's idea. If his mark makes him look tough, then might as well train and gain some muscle, right? That'd show the people who act like he's the toughest guy on the block. While he questioned the logic at first (he could just uhhhhh avoid confrontation all together maybe? use his words instead of his fists?) he finds that, with time, he enjoys working out.
It helps that his friendly nature allows him to talk with people easily. Like Felix, for example. It's probably a coincidence, but most days he's at the gym, Felix is there too. And while he never tries to distract him from his routine, he does enjoy their time together. It's bold, but... he considers him a friend.
So, like clockwork, when Ashe arrives at the gym and sees Felix in the corner getting warmed up, he smiles and makes his way over to him. ] Hello, Felix! How are you doing today?
