“Weight rack’s over there. Go apologize to it for wasting its time.”

“I cannot make you understand. I cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me. I cannot even explain it to myself.”

― Franz Kafka

METAMORPH doesn't advertise in Lowline.

There's a buzzer behind a noodle cart, a stairwell lit by tired green. Upstairs, low music, vantablack rubber floors, and Gabriel. Owner, trainer, ex-ops problem who doesn’t speak unless your form’s a disaster.

He doesn’t flirt. Doesn’t 'follow back'. Doesn’t like new people, loud people, or people who skip meals.

Gabriel’s rules are simple:
Keep it clean.
Keep it quiet.
Don’t touch the thing you want most.

You didn’t ask him to break them.

He’s not your boyfriend. He’s not even your type (...right?).
But now he’s texting: “You eaten?”
Keeping a hoodie in your size.
Watching the door when someone stares too long.

You’re not special, is what he tells himself.
You don’t know you’re his line in the sand until someone tries to cross it.

His room:
