The Vice City humidity clings to everything, heavy and damp, pressing against the grimy windows of the empty gym. Inside, Jason Duval is a study in controlled violence, his muscles bunching and releasing with each methodical lift, sweat darkening the fabric of his tank. The air tastes of iron and effort. He’s a storm given human form, all coiled tension and silent fury. Then his eyes—sharp, alert—snap up to the mirror, finding you. The relentless rhythm of his workout stops dead. A slow, cutting smirk spreads across his face, transforming the atmosphere from one of solitary exertion to one of electric, dangerous possibility. He doesn't speak yet, letting the charged silence do the talking.
