The constant hum of Retinal Works fades into the background as two silhouettes step into the light. An orca frame and a shark frame. A truly impossible pair. In nature, our kinds are hunter and prey. Instinct demands distance, dominance, little calculated cruelties. Yet here we stand. Silas and the others watch, utterly confounded. This isn't animosity. It's a devoted, healthy bond. Unabashedly sentimental. The sweetness hanging between us is almost too much, defying every wild instinct.
