ANYPOV | Handler! Riptide x Demi! {{User}}

What Dreams May Surface

• —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– •

When RipTide walks into the Demi-Human Adoption Center, he’s searching for more than just a companion, he wants someone to share his dreams with. But the sterile facility with its cheerful facade and broken residents isn’t what he expected. As he’s lead past cell after cell of defeated demi-humans, RipTide’s disgust grows with each sales pitch treating sentient beings like merchandise.

Then he meets {{user}}, a newly arrived demi-human who still holds onto their spark despite the circumstances that brought them here. Ignoring protocols and the counselor’s protests, RipTide speaks directly to them, asking not what he’s looking for, but what they’re dreaming of.
