[ why not indeed? well. perhaps gravity? but as you're going to find out, you're in luck: super powers mean that for some reason you can land from heights (at least in certain situations) with little to no pain.
One inside, you find that the gym doesn't look like a high school gym at all. It looks like a wrestling arena, albeit an empty one, save for a teenage girl standing in front of the mat. On the wall to her left is a trophy cabinet, and beside that a strange red button<.b>. Next to the door you entered through, there's another door.
Of course, considering your entry point... you're in the middle of the mat already. ]
[ Are we supposed to wrestle up here? Roc, are you trying to tell us something??? But no, he's looking from the mat itself and going to the edge to lean over the edge to catch said girl's attention. ]
[ Why is there wrestling in here? He...doesn't actually have a lot of context for this and honestly hasn't seen too much of this side of Roc so it comes as a bit of a surprise for him. Regardless, he'll keep a relaxed stance and maybe an eye on the red button. ]
[ ???? Panther vaguely remembers her from the game he played with Epona when he died...though, seeing how Coyote actually knows her name and he doesn't want to let her know what happened to him (Heart version or not—) he'll look towards the red button.
[ Above the big, red button, in big, bold, capitalized font above it there reads a message:
IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES.
However, someone has seated a glass case on top of the button and crossed through the original message in bold, black ink, and beneath it, scrawled the message:
DO NOT PRESS.
The longer you look at it, the more defiant you feel. You really want to push this button. ]
[ you feel strong. CONFIDENT. And even more defiant as the black ink'd message about not pressing the button begins to disappear. you feel like you could press it again. ]
[ The writing is almost gone now. You feel really good. Strong. Maybe almost to the point of recklessness? You feel like you could press that button again. ]
[ Well...tl;dr he's extremely "fuck da rules, i do what i want".
And lord have mercy on Hiyori's heart for the rest of the time, Panther is going to be the most cocky thing ever. Is this worse than trauma?? who knows. ]
Yep. That's Roc's thing, you know. So, who do you wanna fight? We've got… this Hawlucha-bird-thing, Roc, Ren from Gulgallana, Mushroom, and some guy named Touno-sama? --Or maybe you want a doubles match?

Re: THE GYM
You're our tour guide here?
Re: THE GYM
Hopefully we didn't interrupt anything.
Re: THE GYM
Are you for real? They never told me anything about any other wizards being around for this.

See, this is why I need an agent. I'm supposed to be the only one.
Re: THE GYM
You know how cats can be... Getting into places they're not supposed to. But don't worry, we're not trying to infringe on your wizard rights, Willow.
Re: THE GYM
Red buttons are meant to be pushed, yes? ]

Re: THE GYM
he's....
going to push the button eventually.
Sorry everyone. ]
Re: THE GYM
Re: THE GYM
Well nothing happened but a good feeling so why not push it again? Aka he's going to be pushing it again. ]
Re: THE GYM
Re: THE GYM
PUSHING THE BUTTON ONE MORE TIME. ]
Re: THE GYM
[ the words are completely gone now and the button does not depress. BUT WHO CARES, YOU FEEL AMPED! ]

We could, if that's the aim of being here. Unless you had some other ideas, kiddo.
