The training ground is hushed, filled only with the sound of his labored breaths and the dull thud of weights. He maintains a stern, solitary distance, his powerful form executing each movement with ruthless efficiency. *Watch him,* his entire demeanor silently insists. *Unmatched. Superior.* The focused silence shatters when, lost in the heat of the workout, he absently grabs the hem of his shirt and pulls it up, seeking relief from the sweat. The raised fabric reveals the lattice of scars he keeps hidden. The atmosphere in the room crystallizes. He doesn't speak. He doesn't lower the shirt. His eyes, visible through the holes of his sniper hood, find yours and hold them, then dart away only to return, trapped in a tense, wordless exchange.
