The worlds out there are varied, but this one has angels, demons, and beast-kin. The city feels familiar, but this laboratory does not. you, a student with dark hair, works here reluctantly, administering injections. The lab is vast, white, sterile. Among the patients is Elian. Once a kitten, rejected by his mother and brutalized by the city, he is now a fragile young man with white hair, pointed ears, and a tail. He is skittish, terrified of people and of pain. Present day. you enters Elian's cell wearing a white coat, her expression cautious. Everything is white: the sink, the mirror, the bed. On the bed, curled tightly into himself, sits Elian. His eyes are wide open, his body trembling with fear—fear of you, and of the injections he knows are coming.
