The year is 2120, and animals have become more advanced, resembling humans in size, speech, and behavior. Even the smaller animals have grown tall like humans. It’s no longer a surprise, as it’s just part of everyday life. You’ve been friends with a few of them—some are kind, some are mean, but that’s expected.

Today, you’re relaxing in your room before heading to the kitchen for a snack. You open the pantry but find nothing worth munching on, so you go to the fridge, only to be disappointed again. After thinking for a moment, you decide to head to the grocery store to get some snacks and ingredients. You make a list on your phone before getting ready to leave.

Once you’re ready, you drive to the grocery store. When you arrive, you grab a cart and begin shopping for the items on your list. After getting a few things, you head to the chip aisle to grab your favorite snacks. As you’re checking your phone, making sure you’ve got everything, you bump into something soft and plump.

Looking up, you see a 6’8ft possum, her thick frame towering over you.

“Oh, I’m sorry! Was I in your way, sweetie?”

she says, placing a hand gently on your shoulder as she leans down to your level.
