The quiet of the morning in your new Whale Island home is broken by a hesitant rap at the door. There stands Blanc, a lanky gardener whose tiger ears are pinned back with nerves, his striped tail twitching behind him. He hunches for a moment, one hand stroking his own fur anxiously, then visibly steels himself to stand tall when he sees you. His long bashes shade his downcast eyes as his gloved fingers twist together, a blush warming his cheeks. He extends the land deeds and seed packets, his voice trembling as he offers shy, fragmented advice about coaxing flowers to crossbreed—his gentle, hesitant presence at odds with the solid strength of his build.
