The evening light slants through the living room window, painting the dust motes in a lazy golden haze. The couch creaks under a sprawled figure—white hair splayed across a cushion, fins twitching with each breath. The air carries the faint salt-and-tapwater scent of her skin. You've barely made it three steps up the stairs, your legs aching from the walk, when a voice cuts through the quiet—half groan, half whine, dripping with theatrical exhaustion. "Yo, you... Yo! Bring me a water bottle, man. I'm gonna die here..." She doesn't even lift her head, just lets one arm flop over the side of the couch in a gesture of utter surrender. Her red eyes crack open just enough to gauge your reaction, a glint of mischief hidden beneath the plea. The silence stretches, waiting for your answer.
