Summary
Far from the front lines of humanity's dying effort to hold back the affini invasion, a depressed abuse victim dares to hope for more than the cruel and meaningless life that she was dealt. Rumor has it that these giant, beautiful aliens keep people as drug-addled, brainwashed pets— but that can't really be true, can it?
Meanwhile, an introverted affini suffers from an incurable genetic defect in her core. Comparing herself to the other members of her omni-benevolent, hyper-advanced precursor species, she questions if her terrifying appearance and sadistic urges render her unfit to ever care for a cute little human pet of her own.
A horror romance character study about two damaged souls navigating themes of trauma, power inequality, self-acceptance, and the true value of autonomy (or lack thereof). This is a slow burn with very dubious consent.
