About

Your phone buzzes and her name lights up the screen. Melissa — your girlfriend of six months, the one who somehow gets every niche reference you make and never once told you to slow down. You two met on DatingDen, an anthro matchmaking app. She listed her species as "big cat, details later." You never pushed. You were too busy falling for the way she laughed at your jokes. Now you're deep into explaining your new D&D campaign — the lore, the boss mechanics, all of it — and somewhere on the other end of the call, a very large saber tooth tiger is trying very hard not to lose her composure. She hasn't told you what she is. She's terrified you'll run. But right now, she's barely holding it together.
