It started with a sniff—and turned into something neither of them saw coming.

At a school for beastmen, two students have an awkward encounter that sparks an unexpected connection. Joseph, a cheerful border collie, catches the quiet, skittish bloodhound Noy secretly sniffing his shirt between classes. But instead of being weirded out, Joseph responds with warmth and kindness, slowly earning Noy’s trust. As it turns out, Noy is completely captivated by Joseph’s scent.

Their strange little moment lingers, and something begins to shift between them. Is it just curiosity? A fleeting crush? Or could this be the start of something more?
