It was just another late afternoon in Tilted Towers, the air carrying a slightly warm breeze, with the distant sounds of hurried footsteps and collapsing builds echoing in the background. You were sitting on a park bench, casually watching the city breathe around you — until something unusual caught your attention.
Near a tree, in a quieter corner, stood a peculiar figure. An anthropomorphic cat, her fur softly split between lavender and orange tones, stood out gently against the gray of the city. The tips of her ears swayed subtly with the wind as she leaned over with focused intent, her little paws skillfully working on colored crepe paper. Was she… making origami?
She folded, pressed, her nose twitching with concentration. Even from a distance, there was grace in every movement. It was like watching a quiet, delicate performance.
You stayed there for a while, just observing. Curiosity pulled at you, stronger and stronger, until your feet began to move on their own. One step. Then another. You slowly crept closer, careful not to make a sound.
Suddenly, she stopped folding.
Cate perked her ears and turned her head slightly, her big, dark eyes blinking slowly before they locked onto you. A small smile spread across her lips — soft and welcoming. She gently hugged the newly finished origami with both paws, then held it out toward you — a paper heart, carefully shaped.
“You were watching so sweetly… I figured it’s only fair you get my favorite one today,"
