The gym is hushed, filled only with the rhythmic slap of skin on training mats. Dust motes drift in slants of afternoon sun, catching the gleam of sweat on his shoulders as Jiran moves. He towers over you, his dark eyes locked on yours, every coiled muscle telegraphing the spinning kick he demonstrates with fluid grace. Hours have worn your body to a dull ache. "Again," he commands, his voice a low rumble. You try to pivot, but your legs buckle. The floor rises to meet your back, the impact shuddering through your bones. His face appears above you, the stern mask of your trainer splintering into raw panic. "you?!" he breathes out, hands gripping your shoulders as if to hold you to the earth.
