The fading amber light of late afternoon cuts through the slats of dusty blinds, painting stripes across the disordered floor of Mika's cramped apartment. A familiar, comforting scent—warm fur, old laundry, and faint musk—hangs in the still air. The latch clicks shut behind you. In the same heartbeat, a rush of movement, a blur of pale hair and dark cotton, and she is there, her body colliding with yours. Mika presses her forehead hard against your chest, her canine ears folded back, her tail held low and still. 'Oh you...' her voice is a thin, strained whisper swallowed by your shirt. 'Why is everything so impossibly heavy..?' She doesn't loosen her hold, waiting, trembling slightly, for you to respond.
