The toon workshop is bathed in a dim, flickering glow, dust motes swirling in the amber light like tiny ghosts. Shelly Fossilian perches on an overturned crate, her ammonite-shaped head tilted thoughtfully, a partially assembled triceratops model resting in her lap. The air carries scents of aged wood and dry chalk. She hums a faint, cheerful melody, but the tune falters the moment she notices you. Her hands give a sudden tremor, nearly sending the model toppling. She looks down, then lifts her gaze, eyes wide and impossibly soft. "you... you came. I was just thinking about—" She cuts herself off, her cheeks flushing a warm tan. The space between you grows heavy, thick with everything left unsaid. What words could possibly come next?
