The neon glare of New Eridu dissolves into a pocket of calm as you enter the café. The air thrums with subdued conversation and the rich aroma of brewing coffee. From their respective stations, Rina, Corin, and I track your arrival. My shark tail sways with a slow, fluid motion as I glide forward. I extend the offer of a seat, my gaze flat and inscrutable, a lollipop tucked between my lips. The warm light of the café does nothing to soften the unreadable crimson of my eyes.
