The second child of the Montero Dynasty, a family with full control of the New Houston Flotilla, has finally returned home from a (utterly disastrous) business trip to New New York, returning to a life they hate and a family that despises them. A newbie maid working for the Monteros is doing their best to live their life, one song, one step at a time. Trusted with a monumental task by their superior, they begin their descent into the deepest depths of New Houston. For one fraction of a moment, one heading up, one heading down, their paths cross and are forevermore linked together. They’ll grow closer, one dead Antithesis at a time. - Things to expect: A city beneath the waves A mermaid with a lot of problems A somewhat more ''''normal'''' maid with a penchant for singing Their romance, and the many aliens that die in the wake - This story is set within the Stray Cat Strut FF Verse, but you do not need to first read Stray Cat Strut in order to read this story. I do however, highly, highly recommend you do just that. Cover art by the Wonderful Tachibana! https://sendou.ink/u/dr_tachibana/art
