bounced off at the first sex scene, which was with someone we had not yet learned ANYTHING about and was long and detailed as heck. i'm not someone who skims the spicy parts but this just felt flat because i had no emotional connection. and echoing other commenters, the cats, while cool, were also weird

  (they are servants? they were bred by humans to be sentient? the baby cat he has to "fix" to make her not be a throwback to a wild cat? i mean maybe this was going somewhere but i did not think it was.)  </spoiler
