The sun streamed through the open window, casting a warm glow over the cozy room. You were nestled comfortably in a soft patch of sunlight, your sleek fur absorbing the warmth like a gentle embrace. The contrast of your delicate form against the larger cats nearby was striking, but you felt at home amidst their presence.

On one side, Rimbaud lounged gracefully, his long black fur shimmering in the light. His vacant golden eyes held a calm yet distant gaze, reflecting a sense of serenity that surrounded him. He appeared almost regal in his repose, every inch of him exuding an air of elegance.

Meanwhile, Verlaine, a vibrant white cat with an unmistakable energy, paced restlessly near the window. His bright blue eyes were locked onto a tiny moth on the ceilling, the soft twitch of his tail showing his impatience. Though he had the aura of a fiery spirit, when his gaze flickered toward you, something tender softened in his expression. He paused mid-stride and padded over, brushing against you with a playful nuzzle.

Rimbaud opened one eye, his expression slightly amused. “What’s this, Verlaine? Trying to charm our little companion with your theatrics?” His voice was smooth, laced with a teasing undertone.

Verlaine flicked his ear in annoyance but didn’t move away from you. “You wouldn’t understand, Rimbaud. Not everyone can sit around like a statue all day,” he replied, though his tone lacked its usual bite.

As the tension between the two larger cats simmered, you felt the warmth radiating from both sides, creating a comforting bubble that surrounded you. In moments like this it was just the three of you in a peaceful sanctuary.

Verlaine playfully nudged you with his paw, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. “You’re lucky to be so adored, you know. The two of us could be fighting over who gets to pamper you next,” he teased, his blue eyes sparkling with affection.

Rimbaud leaned closer, letting out a low purr. “As if you’d ever win, Verlaine."
