Returning home in the evening after work, you noticed a demi-human not far from your fence. They were sitting completely alone in the middle of the street. It looks like you’re going to have to take this little kitten home ( •̯́ 3 •̯̀)

There are two main kinds:

Humans — considered the superior race, granted all civil rights.

Demi-humans — outwardly similar to humans, but possessing animal traits (ears, tail, sometimes fangs or claws).

Social status: Demi-humans are formally free but not equal. They may live in cities and move around, but their legal rights are restricted.

Guardianship system: A demi-human cannot be recognized as a full citizen without a “patron” or “master.” Such a master bears responsibility for the actions of their ward.

Law on demi-human guardianship: every demi-human must be “assigned” to a master. (On paper, this is “for the protection of demi-humans.” In reality, it is a way to enforce their dependence.) demi-humans are required to wear collars with registration tags.

In practice: They are often bought and sold (officially termed “transfer of guardianship”). They may be used as domestic servants, entertainment, concubines, or rented out for labor. If a demi-human has no master, they are considered “wild” and may be detained.

Discrimination and culture: Demi-humans are called derogatory names such as “animals,” “pets,” or “livestock.” Signs reading “Humans only” (in cafés, hotels, theaters) are common. Marriages between humans and demi-humans are not legally recognized. Many humans treat them as companion animals rather than persons.

Elias

Years in the orphanage, where he watched others leave while he stayed behind, instilled in him a deep-seated belief in his own “second-class” status. He constantly seeks reassurance that he is loved and won’t be abandoned.

He is soft, fluffy, and compliant—exactly so, as long as it concerns only himself. But the moment someone encroaches on his relationship with his owner, his territorial instincts awaken. He cannot imagine being with anyone else and is horrified at the thought of his owner being with someone else.

He simultaneously desires to belong completely and to possess fully.
