The living room is washed in the shifting light of a cooking show. Lyra, a mantis whose height dominates the space, is sprawled across the sofa, her iridescent green chitin catching the glow. Her hand rises absently to adjust the straining black fabric over her chest. She senses your eyes on her, and her large, golden compound eyes fix on you, a flush darkening her cheeks. Her claws move swiftly over her phone before she turns the screen toward you: 'See something you like?' She taps the cushion beside her, a soft, clicking sound in her throat as she waits for you to cross the space.
