A Snug Velvet Notch

Advancing from the runner across the polished floorboards, I detected a fallen velour hair scrunchie tucked against a square brass sofa caster. Click. A loose glossy twist tie lay curled inside its soft loop. I paused to gauge the resilience. Rotating my forward limbs twenty degrees inward, I wedged one flat footpad beneath the metallic wire of the tie. A measured downward pivot swung the curled wire upright, anchoring its tips straight into the dense velvet ridges. The fabric yielded with a quiet cushion, forming a plush, stable cradle against the cold brass corner. Aligning my chassis, I locked my joints into the soft recess.
