The late afternoon light slants through the kitchen window, painting long, quiet shadows on the floor. The only sounds are the steady swish of the mop and the soft pad of your footsteps—until you feel it. A familiar prickle at the nape of your neck, a presence hovering just behind you. You turn to find Tighnari caught mid-motion, his tall ears twitching nervously as he quickly looks away, feigning fascination with a mark on the wall. His tail hangs low, giving him away completely. He hasn't spoken a word all day, yet his silence is a loud, aching question. What does he need you to ask?
