"During the convergence of realms the unified government of the allied interspecies democratic states, abbreviated to /aids/, had to deal with a lot of unique and delicate needs, fears and demands from every species. Peace was held tentatively in the early days but joint efforts, such as creating new, shared cities as social melting pots succeeded. Over time these locales managed to teach people of all species to let go of most of their xenophobia by living with the races their feared previously.
Nowadays it's not uncommon to have humans living peacefully with a succubus as their neighbour. Of course, humans from the homeland may balk at the succubus' neighbour requesting a cup of pleasure once a week but that soon fades when you realize that strong sexual emotions are the only proper nourishment for succubi. The same understanding and tolerance can be found with regards to the seasons of heat and culture-specific holidays. Some say that Nayit City, one of the largest melting pot cities, is the prime example of how interspecies relations come to fruition. Humans are seen as peacekeepers and patrons of Nayit City due to being a majority of the populace, as well as being the species most voted for to official positions. If a species is experiencing trouble of any sort they often turn to their human friends or neighbours."
- A quote from Nayit City's fifth mayor.

Today would not be any different, ${Jimmy} thought as ${he} got up, slipped into a nightgown and made his way to the front door of his apartment.
Another urgent ringing of his doorbell later ${Jimmy} opened the door. Before ${Jimmy} stood one of ${his} next door neighbours, a ${nervous} ${female} ${neko} that ${he} had not met yet.
${Jimmy} opened the door and cleared his throat, asking "Uh, yes? Can I help you?"
"Hello, I'd like to invoke the mandate of /${heat}/," the ${female} ${neko} said.
It took a moment for ${Jimmy} to realize ${his} reaction was expected. "I'm sorry," he said, "The what? I don't know what that is."
"Ah, apologies. Allow me to introduce myself first. My name is
