HARPER
It is far hotter here than in the city of his home world, where air conditioning was plentiful. He longs for it more than anything else in that moment, friends and family be damned. They would surely forgive him for his transgression if they were here, sweaty and worn out from starting his training session too late in the day. It had been beautiful and challenging in the moment but now he just feels like an idiot for sleeping in and doing this to himself. After a dunk in the Oasis he feels far more refreshed, hair damp and curling against his temples and nape. He had been smart enough to shuck his shirt before exercising so while damp and clinging it at least isn't smelly. Small mercies.
Now if Harper had known exactly who owned the bar, he probably wouldn't have walked in looking for a cool drink to sit down with. Not that he has anything personally against Sunjata - for all his closeness with Phoebe, Harper is a man capable of being impartial, and he doesn't know the man's side of the story - but he also isn't looking for a hard time today. So when he enters, the only reason he stays is because his blue eyes land upon Libbs, and subsequently brighten in joyful recognition.
He has nothing against skipping, but he refrains from doing it as he walks closer with a smile to rival the sun outside. "Libbs!" he calls out in greeting, giving a cheeky wiggle of his fingers at her in greeting as he approaches. Seeing that she's flanked by two others - Sunjata being the one that makes him mentally pause even as his steps don't falter - makes him consider changing his greeting into a simple hello and then bypassing her for another seat. But Harper has never done anything sensible in his entire life, and aims for the seat beside her to slide into. "Good day for a drink, right?" An open question to all of them as he swings his smile to include them, playfully tapping his extra energy out onto the bar with his fingertips and his free hand flicking away a damp curl tickling his eyebrow. "It's good to see you again!" Completely oblivious to the chaos going on in this particular lesson.
