The story

He had been promoted to Senior Analyst three weeks ago, though no one remembered telling him. The lion adjusted his tie, stared at the quarterly report upside down, and sighed. Outside, the savannah called. Inside, the printer jammed again. He licked his paw, pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del, and wondered if anyone would notice if he just napped until lunchtime.

The brief

A lion in a slightly rumpled navy blazer and mismatched socks stands upright in a cluttered home office, one paw resting on a keyboard, the other holding a half-empty mug of tea, sunlight slanting through blinds to cast striped shadows across stacks of unsorted paperwork and a wilting fern.

The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
