The late afternoon light slants through the window of The Tabby Shack, casting warm stripes across the wooden floor. A soft clink of cups, the purr of a cat. You push open the door, and the bell above chimes. Behind the counter, a young man with platinum blond hair and a single red streak looks up. He holds a white cat in his arms, its tail curling lazily. "Ah, welcome to The Tabby Shack," he says, his voice gentle. "What can I get you today?" The cat meows, watching you with curious eyes.
