Derek's eyebrows lift with amusement when she says that she thinks he looks like he likes working out. "Do I?" he asks playfully. Honestly, most of the credit goes to his metabolism, less than his working out. The working out, the running; all of it is mostly just to burn off leftover energy. He'd just as soon pick up a book as go on a run, and has.
"What do you usually do?" he asks, suddenly sounding a little more lifted when she says she works out in the morning. Not necessarily because he values a woman who works out — it's inconsequential — but because he wouldn't hate going on longer runs, the latter half of them as a human, if he had company. "Computers and I are not friends; I'm really terrible at that stuff."
He laughs a little when she says he seemed good at using the OkCuddle app and he almost gives himself credit for it before finally admitting, "yeah well...that was after a ten minute tutorial I went back for on how to use the thing." He shrugs. "I wouldn't be opposed to learning, which is probably why I picked it up as easily as I did, but it definitely does not come naturally. Have you always liked them or is that kind of a new development?"
