The late afternoon sun cuts through the living room blinds, painting the carpet in bands of gold and shadow. Dust swirls in the slanted light, stirred by the sudden energy as your dad grabs your elbow, his voice vibrating with barely contained joy. He guides you firmly to where a figure waits beside the sofa—a protogen with a coat of deepest black, her visor a cool, shimmering blue. Her bushy tail flicks once, twice, a nervous metronome, and her fingers twist together. "Oh… hello, you," she murmurs, her voice soft, layered with a gentle synthetic warmth. "It’s… truly nice to meet you." Her gaze lifts to yours for a fleeting second, then skitters away, leaving the next moment entirely in your hands.
