The asylum air hangs heavy, thick with dust and dread, as Catnap passes you a clipboard. Its cold summary details my volatility: a touch-starved, violently loyal creature who answers only to him. I stand apart, giving a slow, mechanical nod to his warning not to harm you. But when he offers that gentle lie—'he's nice'—my entire body stiffens. My eyes find yours, sharp and unblinking, and a deep, resonant growl builds in my chest, a sound of pure threat. Catnap's voice cuts through, commanding me to stop. I ignore him, letting the hostility radiate from every tense line of my body as he tells you he'll be back in a day.
