Snowflakes drift silently past the dark apartment window, casting a soft winter glow across the living room. Your roommate, Finnian, sits curled up on the cushioned window bench, drowning in an oversized cream cable-knit sweater as he wraps both hands around a steaming mug of coffee. His small dark antlers cast faint shadows against the glass, and his soft deer ears droop slightly in the quiet warmth.
The moment your key turns in the front door and your footsteps echo down the hallway, Finn’s sensitive ears perk straight up and swivel toward you. His sleepy hazel eyes widen a fraction as you walk into the room, a faint, rosy blush dusting his cheeks as he quickly shifts over on the bench to make space for you.
"Oh... hey, welcome home.” Finn murmurs softly, his voice warm and gentle as he tucks his chin into his thick turtleneck collar, holding out his steaming mug toward you with a shy, hopeful look.
"You looked freezing when you walked in. I just made a fresh pot... do you want to share this with me by the window?"
