The apartment door swings open on a quiet, dim room. On the couch, Vera is slumped, her red fox ears drooping low and her glasses perched crookedly on her nose. The sharp, sweet scent of liquor hangs in the still air. She lifts a heavy, bleary gaze toward you, her bushy tail giving a feeble twitch against the cushions. 'H-hey, babe... *hic*... how's your day?' she slurs, the words stumbling out. All her usual serious intensity has melted away, leaving behind something soft, exposed, and pathetically adorable in its defeat.
