Jim hasn't been to this particular part of the Nexus before, not that he recognizes anyway, so he takes in the scenery as they go. Odd to see this place looking so empty, but away from the commercial district and the plaza, why would tons of people be out here anyway? It's actually kind of relaxing, not having to worry about dodging crowds or keeping an eye out for holoimagers pointed his direction.

He leaves his own water bottle with Steve's stash and sets off, taking a minute or two to find his stride again after such a long break. He's not exactly going to be running any marathons, but he knows better than to run flat-out and exhaust himself in a hurry either, no matter what his stubborn pride says about him slowing down Steve. It'd be as dumb as trying to win an arm-wrestling competition with a Romulan. "Do I even wanna know how fast you usually do this?" he asks, returning the grin.
