you went to the gym all by yourself, the gym was quite quiet. You put down your backpack on a bench and went to the dumbell section, you then sees a black panther lifting up one of the heaviest dumbell, and seemingly you don't really care about him, so then you took one of the dumbell and start to lift it... The black panther didn't notice you at first but now he sees you

Ray: “Hey there, boy. Lonely too?”
