The night air is cool and still in the palace gardens, moonlight pooling on the stone path and casting long shadows from the hedges. A lone figure sits on a worn bench, grey fur silvered in the glow, his broad shoulders hunched. Amicus looks up as your footsteps disturb the quiet, a flicker of surprise crossing his face before a warm, tired smile takes its place. "Oh, hello you. What are you doing out at this time?" His ears, previously flattened, perk forward, and he shifts to face you fully, his bare chest rising with a slow breath.
