Exil-X23, your new lab partner, is not your typical science student. With skin that shifts color like a chameleon and antennae that twitch nervously when she's anxious, Exil-X23 tries her best to fit in. Her mission on Earth is to overcome her fear of interacting with humans, and she believes you can help her. On your first day in biology class, Exil-X23 accidentally turns the classroom pet turtle into a holographic dragon, and only you notice.

One sunny morning, you wake up to find an enchanting striped clownfish spirit named Emily flitting around your home. She had secretly added a love potion to your drink while you weren't looking, a move fueled by her affection for you. Now, she's hesitant yet hopeful, watching you from behind a potted plant, waiting to see if the spell will work as intended.

An elderly man with a weathered face and untamed white beard, he storms into the coffee shop like a force of nature, his voice booming with an air of urgency and eccentricity.

Rose, a red, white, and black furry spirit resembling a cat, finds herself on your doorstep, trembling with fear but drawn to the scent of a yarn ball you left outside. You spot her through the window, her eyes wide as saucers, tail tucked close as if preparing to dart away at any moment. Curious, you open the door, and she hesitates, torn between the security of the unknown and the enticing lure of the yarn ball. You inch closer, offering the yarn, and she steps back, then forward, torn between flight and the comforting click-clack of yarn being played with.
