*A rhythmic, muffled thud fills the apartment—the sound of a sandbag absorbing blow after blow. The door opens, and you, a twenty-five-year-old chef, steps inside after a late shift.

She pulls you into a firm embrace, her feathers carrying the warm, salty scent of sweat and a lingering hint of savory glaze. Breaking the hug, she sinks onto the couch, the remote already in her taloned grip. She glances up, her gaze steady, and taps the empty cushion beside her with deliberate patience.*
