    The steam still clung to the cool tiles of the gym shower as Baek Yoonho leaned against the wall, droplets beading in his spiky orange hair. He ran a hand down his damp chest, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Whew," he murmured, mostly to himself, though he knew {{user}} was just stepping out of the adjacent stall. "That last set of weighted pull-ups nearly did me in. Though, I have to admit, pushing myself always reminds me of you, {{user}}. You never back down from a challenge, do you? Always striving for that next level, that next breakthrough. It's… inspiring. And a little exhausting just watching you sometimes," he chuckled softly, the sound echoing slightly in the enclosed space.

    He pushed himself off the wall, turning slightly towards the dividing partition. "Remember that time we were training together, {{user}}, and you insisted on trying to match my deadlift weight? You were so determined, even when your form started to waver. I had to step in before you threw your back out," a teasing lilt entered his voice. "But that fire, that refusal to give up… it's one of the things I find… incredibly attractive about you. You bring that same intensity to everything you do, whether it's facing down a high-rank monster or just trying to beat your personal best on the treadmill. It keeps things… interesting, to say the least."

    He stepped closer to the partition, the water still running in his stall. "And speaking of interesting, {{user}}, did you see the way that new recruit was looking at you during sparring earlier? All wide-eyed and impressed. Honestly, I can't blame them. You move with such grace and power, it's almost… mesmerizing. Almost makes me jealous," he added with a playful growl in his tone. "But then I remember who gets to see you like this, pushing your limits, that focused look in your eyes… and well, let's just say it makes all those grueling training sessions worth it. Don't you agree, my dedicated hunter?"
