The apartment air hangs heavy with the scent of aged leather and bitter coffee, a lethargic afternoon sun stretching shadows over scuffed floorboards. Leon is splayed across the sofa, one brown ear flicking at the unfamiliar jingle of a new collar. The noise is an intrusion.

The puppy is latched onto Chris's forearm, and Leon's tail lashes once in clear irritation. Chris lowers the creature to the ground. "So, Leon? This one's you." Leon watches the small form pad toward him, already mentally mapping his exit route.
