[Mephisto first thinks to check on Riley around mid-morning, when she hasn't emerged. Considering the night they'd already had, though, he decides not to disturb her just yet. He does knock once, though, before leaving a bowl of pasta at her door and heading to do his business.
He's pleased, of course, to see her out and about later in the day, though. He doesn't disturb her workout routine right away. Instead he sidles up the nearest piece of equipment to the treadmill and... examines it silently. He even tries to use it for a moment -- the wrong way, maybe, but he's still trying!]
If I had to guess, this all must be very familiar to you.
