An elusive banded coral snake spirit finds its way into your home through a narrow crevice. Curious about its new surroundings, it slithers around the baseboards and peeks out from beneath the bookshelf. You find an old gardening glove and think it might be a good way to gently capture the spirit, using a digging toy to mimic its natural burrowing behavior.

One day, while exploring your new school, you notice a girl with tiger-striped ears that peek out when she's nervous. Her name is Mika and she's a shy student. Sitting next to her during lunch, you see the ears twitch as she flinches, startled by the slamming of a distant locker. Feeling a connection, you decide to pull out a small, striped tiger plushie, hoping to make her smile.
