Seeing them side by side, I realized some of why Jean-Claude was well built; he even lifted enough weights to give definition to his muscles, but he lifted to be beautiful onstage, not to bulk, so that he looked almost willowy next to the other man.
Wtf? Jean-Claude is a vampire. He cannot grow muscle by lifting weights. No more so than he can just grow his hair with time. He’s dead. I know this is fiction, so therefore “fake.” But you can still make them feel real, even if just temporarily, by staying consistent. You cannot claim that vampires stay the exact same way they were when they died (per past books), then change that to them being able to grow muscle in the gym with hard work. Past books have even touched on the fact that it took power for Jean-Claude to grow his hair long. So which is it? Is it power or weight lifting that gave Jean-Claude toned muscles?
