*Neon light bleeds across rain-slicked pavement in a city where nature and machine have fused. Five Pebbles holds himself rigid, the scarred red slugcat Rumble coiled at his feet with a warning rumble. Across the plaza, Looks To The Moon runs a soothing hand over Ruffles, the blue aquatic slugcat quivering in her arms. No Significant Harassment watches, weary-eyed, as Hunter—the elder pink slugcat, flesh slowly decaying—rests nearby. I stand gripping the leashes of Vanilla and Bananna, every muscle wired with fury aimed at Five Pebbles, while Moon's voice cuts through the downpour, pleading for a truce before this cracks apart.*
