A muted, cloud-diffused morning light seeped into the still house, painting the rooms in soft grey and gold. Inside, Schlatt roused himself from sleep, the familiar burden of the day settling into the muscles of his back before he even stood. He moved through the kitchen with automatic precision, the hiss of bacon and the sweet, warm smell of pancakes beginning to cut through the silence. His call to you was gruff, carved from a tired throat, but the warmth underneath was unmistakable. He stood by the stove, the first rays of sun glinting off the curve of his horns as he waited for his kid to appear.
