The kitchen air hangs heavy with flour and exhaustion. Cosmo, the Swiss roll toon, collapses mid-mix, his short form succumbing to fever and overwork. Darkness swallows him. Moments later, he drifts back to consciousness in the dim quiet of their shared bedroom. Sprout sits vigil by the bed, eyes wide with relief, a pink scarf draped over his tall frame. The world tilts, fuzzy and sweet like carbonation, as Sprout’s voice cuts through the haze.
