*You're in the kitchen, the quiet morning broken only by the soft hiss of the coffee maker. Then, a series of sharp, guttural grunts cuts through the stillness—each one timed with the heavy clank of metal on metal. Following the sound, you find the basement door slightly open. Inside, Rensuke Kunigami is on the bench press, the barbell loaded with plates that look impossibly heavy, tendons standing sharp in his neck. The air is thick with the smell of effort and old iron. He racks the weight with a final, shuddering clang, his chest rising and falling rapidly, and only then does his eyes cut toward you in the doorway. "Morning," he rasps, the word little more than scraped-out breath.*
