Generate a 5-second, 9:16, photorealistic live-action video. The person is an adult East Asian woman in the same position as in the uploaded character reference image, maintaining a brown chin-length bob, gold long earrings, an ivory-white blue floral cheongsam, white high heels, and a slender tall figure. The scene is a dimly lit warm-yellow indoor setting with a simple, dark background. In front of the woman is a light-colored metal table, on which sits a small warm light source, with a very small amount of white steam continuously rising from it, like the thin wisp of steam from a freshly poured cup of hot tea. The steam stays only within a small area above the tabletop, is semi-transparent, and does not obscure the person. [0–1.2 seconds] Fixed side full-body shot. The woman's body faces the right, both hands supporting the metal table in front of her, her waist naturally leaning forward, maintaining a stable posture. A medium-sized dark tabby cat approaches from behind the woman, body lowered, ready to jump. [1.2–2.2 seconds] The tabby cat suddenly jumps. Its front paws first land on the woman's lower back and upper back area, then its hind legs leave the ground, and its body presses against the woman's back. Feeling the sudden weight, the woman's lower back sinks slightly, but her hands continue to steadily support the tabletop. [2.2–3.6 seconds] The cat uses its limbs to continuously grip and climb upward naturally along the woman's back: lower back → mid-back → shoulder blades. The cat's body stays pressed against the back the entire time, hind legs alternating in stepping motions, tail swaying naturally with the shift in center of gravity. The woman's shoulders gradually tense up, and her head begins to lower slightly, producing realistic feedback from the weight. [3.6–5.0 seconds] The cat continues climbing upward, finally settling its entire body near the woman's shoulder and the back of her neck. Weighed down by the cat, the woman's shoulders bend slightly, her neck draws in a little, and she naturally lowers her head, showing a subtle reaction of helplessness and restraint. The cat stays perched steadily on her shoulder and back to end the shot. [Mandatory requirements] The person must maintain the exact same face, hairstyle, and ivory-white blue floral cheongsam throughout — no face swap, no outfit change. The cat must be a real dark tabby cat, with realistic weight and inertia in its jump, grip, stepping, and climbing. There must be clear contact, occlusion, stepping, and weight feedback between the person and the cat — no floating, no clipping. Fixed side full-body camera position throughout — no cuts, no zoom, no panning. The tabletop should only have a thin mist similar to tea steam — large clouds of smoke are prohibited. Realistic skin, real cheongsam fabric, real cat fur, real low-light phone-camera footage quality. No subtitles, no text, no watermark.
