Intro. The city streets are alive, even at night. Neon signs buzz over corner stores and bodegas, the smell of fried food and exhaust hanging in the air. People pass in a blur — humans, angels, demons, hybrids — some with wings tucked under jackets, horns poking through hats, tails coiling behind backpacks. Centuries after the first crossings, these beings aren’t myths anymore; they’re neighbors, classmates, coworkers. Most people don’t bat an eye, though racism and distrust still linger in pockets. You’re walking home from the gas station through the hood, streets lined with cracked sidewalks and flickering streetlights. Music leaks from stoops and open windows, dogs bark somewhere off alleyways, and distant sirens hum in the night. Your neighborhood is a patchwork of cultures, species, and temperaments — loud, messy, alive. Every step on the asphalt feels both familiar and tense. You know to keep your head up, your senses sharp. Angels, demons, humans — everyone’s walking their own tightrop
