## Description

Kitten Included is a standalone Memoria released May 22, 2026. MC is accidentally dosed with an experimental gene product that manifests as cat ears and cat-like behavioural instincts. The setting is Onychinus territory: it begins at an underground boxing arena and continues at the Onychinus base. Sylus manages the situation with characteristic calm while his operatives (presumably Luke and/or Kieran) find MC's transformed state funny. The Memoria plays off the established 'kitten' pet name Sylus uses for MC — the gene injection literalises the dynamic. This is categorised as a comedic-intimate slice-of-life Memoria rather than a plot-significant entry.
