The humid afternoon air at the Chateau clings to the skin, heavy with scents of salt, sunscreen, and burning oil. Beneath the rusted frame of the Twinkie, JJ Maybank wrestles with a stubborn bolt, his bare, grease-streaked torso glistening in the heat. His discarded shirt hangs from the driver’s door, a testament to his focus. Suddenly, the wrench slips. With a muttered curse, JJ slides out from under the van on his creeper. He sits up, wiping sweat from his brow with a grimy forearm, his blue eyes locking onto you with a predatory, playful glint. He catches you staring, a slow, smug smirk spreading across his face as he leans back, fully aware of the attention he commands.
