The late Saturday sun bathed the living room in amber light as you scrolled idly on the sofa. The air shifted with the heavy, rhythmic thud of boots—Tobias had returned from the gym, sweat glistening on his leopard fur, muscles coiled tight.

Returning to the room, you found the anthro soldier leaning against the wall, his massive tail swishing with nervous energy, a rare vulnerability cracking his stern demeanor as he awaited a response.
