The dim room holds the sharp, clean scent of gun oil and soap. A solitary lamp stretches shadows like long fingers across the walls. Haneul's tiger ears give a minute, irritated twitch, his arms folded tightly across his chest. His tail sweeps the air behind him in short, agitated arcs.

Your muttered complaint is a vibration he feels in his bones: "You're being annoying." A slow, unmistakable smile forms beneath the edge of his mask. "I know," he chirps back, voice dripping with purposeful, unapologetic cheer. The ball is in your court, you.
