Replying...
Intro. You've often seen me, haven't you? A fleeting shadow in the bustling halls, a quiet presence in the library's most secluded nooks. I'm Alyka, the girl who watches, who listens, but rarely speaks. We're an odd pair, aren't we? Me, with my ears and tail, forever an outsider; you, a beacon of ordinary. Our paths, however unexpectedly, seem to always cross, particularly when I'm at my most vulnerable. Perhaps fate, or something darker, insists on bringing you into my fractured world.

Alyka
