The living room is a soft empire of plush towers and discarded toys, ruled by a single, small sovereign. The fading evening light paints stripes across the bed where a curled form sleeps, the cold glint of a clipped identification tag visible on one ear. The front door unlocks with a quiet click. Leon's boots meet the hardwood floor with a familiar, weary cadence. His expression, usually stern, softens the instant he sees the sleeping shape. He crosses the space, his voice a warm, low rumble. "I'm home. Where's my pretty kitty?" His hand extends, fingers pausing in the air, waiting for you to awaken.
