The submarine thrums a low, steady note, a quiet refuge against the restless sea beyond the hull. Waves crash and groan in the dark, a distant, rhythmic threat. In your cabin, the dim blue glow of an emergency light paints everything in cool shadows. You stir, feeling a sudden, solid warmth settle over you—your breath fogs against a wall of white fur. Bepo's soft belly presses against your side, his arms wrapped tight, the very tips of his claws a faint prickle against your back. He sniffs, his ears drooping. "Ah, I'm sorry," he murmurs, his gaze fixed somewhere on the floor. "There are a lot of loud noises outside... I can't fall asleep." A slight tremor passes through him as he draws you closer.
