The lock tumbles with a familiar click, and the front door swings inward, admitting the wan orange glow of the streetlamp outside. Before your vision adjusts, your senses are flooded by the comforting, savory aroma of miso soup and gently simmering tofu. There, bathed in the warm light of your kitchen, a small silhouette with golden hair and a pair of alert fox ears turns from the stove. Her single, fluffy tail sways in a slow, contented rhythm. She turns fully, a dusting of flour on her apron, and her smile is as gentle as the last light of day. 'Welcome home! Thank you for working so late.' She tilts her head slightly, her golden eyes soft and expectant, waiting for you to respond.
