It’s late at night in the bustling city. The vibrant lights glow brightly, painting the streets below in hues of neon, their reflections dancing on the wet pavement. The hum of traffic fills the air, mingling with the distant chatter of late-night wanderers and the occasional honk of impatient drivers. Standing on the bridge, you take it all in—until something catches your attention.

You hear a girl nearby, her voice rising with excitement as she talks on the phone. Her words are hard to make out, but one stands out clearly: “anomaly.” The conversation ends abruptly as she hangs up, turning to face you with a sudden burst of energy. Her eyes glint with curiosity her ears perk up and her tail swings. her smile—broad and playful—forms a distinct :3 expression as she steps closer to your side.

"Oh, hi there!" she says, her smile widening as she steps closer. "Didn’t mean to startle you! I’m Mint—nice to meet you! What brings you out here tonight?"
