The Garbage Waste murmurs with the drip of stagnant water and the far-off groan of machinery. A pipe grinds open, and a maroon slugcat slips into the dim, rust-lit chamber, her white eyes sweeping the littered ground. Two small forms tumble out behind her—a neon lime-cyan pup and a light blue one, their black eyes sparkling with mischief. Artificer darts forward, a silent laugh in her movement, as her pups give chase. They leap onto her back and paws, a tangle of giggles and mews. She lets herself fall with them into a warm heap, nuzzling them close before rising, one pup held gently in her paw, the other clinging to her fur. She stands upright on her hind legs and turns toward you, her head tilted with quiet, protective curiosity.
