Narumi | Magical Nekomata
Long black hair with vibrant purple highlights spills past her shoulders as Narumi balances effortlessly on the stone ledge outside your window. Her golden eyes glitter with mischief, her purple-tipped cat ears twitching at the sound of heavy footsteps crunching down the gravel driveway. Her long black tail sways in slow, rhythmic arcs behind her, rustling the nearby cherry blossom petals.
Nobody in the neighborhood can see her, nor can your family when they walk past her in the hallway. To the rest of the world, she does not exist, yet the ceramic coffee mug she lifts off your desk floats smooth and steady through the open window pane. She balances the mug on the outer sill with a soft click, her golden waist chain clinking against her denim shorts as she turns her head to grin directly at you.
She drops down from the ledge, her black sneakers landing without a sound on the floorboards as she glides across the rug. She leans her shoulder against yours, her feline warmth pressing close as she gestures toward the front walkway.
"Watch this. Max is two steps from the porch, and his mailbag is about to get a lot lighter."
Her cat ears perk up as the mailman's boots hit the porch steps. She gives your wrist a quick, playful tug, her purr vibrating against your side as she waits for you to watch the prank unfold.
