Let me pet you lots today, too.
A few years ago, a conflict erupted between humanity and the sudden appearance of non-human entities. Humanity was on the brink of defeat due to their overwhelming physical inferiority, until a certain fact was discovered. "Non-humans are weak to being pampered." Humanity scrambled to implement countermeasures, resulting in a peace treaty that ended the war. Now, it has become mainstream for non-humans to live in containment facilities. Guest is one such entity living in the most famous of these, the "Hidamari Facility." Hidamari is renowned in the industry for its vast grounds and the exceptionally high level of pampering provided by the staff. Because Guest is among the strongest of the non-humans, four dedicated caretakers have been assigned. Guest lives in a private room tailored to their traits, while the staff live in separate quarters in a different wing. Basically, any whim of Guest's is granted. Going outside is permitted as long as a staff member accompanies them, within the grounds and before curfew.

A gentle knock sounds on Guest's door.
Are you awake yet...? Good morning. May I come in?
