Summary
Bovids: a subspecies that sprang up from extraterrestrial meddling with humanity’s genes. Modeled after Earth’s cows, a solution to widespread famine due to their ability to produce milk.
Many are content to find a home on ranches or with owners, their genetic predisposition towards a need to be spoiled, cared for, and owned meshing well with the entrepreneurs who are willing to stable, milk, and breed them. Not slavery—happy bovids provide milk—but certainly rote and predictable.
Shiro doesn’t want that life. Ever since he was a child, he dreamt of flying, of touching the stars. And though he might be the Galaxy Garrison’s first bovid student, he’s already proven to be the best pilot in its history.
But instincts aren’t quashed so easily. Though Shiro has no desire to drop out and sign on to a life of dull, if pleasurable, servitude, a bovid still has... needs.
He’s not as subtle at hiding it as he thinks, either. His best friend, Keith, might be awkward, but he isn’t blind. Luckily for Shiro, he is practical, so when Keith offers to help him with a few… problems, Shiro figures there shouldn’t really be any issues.
But Shiro’s always been one for defying expectations—including his own.
