"Three is old!" Etcetera wailed, flailing her paws around. "I thought you was two! I'm not even one! You're almost as old as Munkstrap, and he's almost as old as Old Deuteronomy, and he's even older than dirt!" She sniffed, rubbing her paw under her nose. "You promise you not gonna die? Not today?"

"I promise I'm not gonna die, Etcy. Munkustrap is two years older than me, dear, and Old Deuteronomy... Heavyside, I don't even know how old he is. Etcy, I'm not old yet, and I won't die for a good long time."
Quaxo laughed quietly and rubbed her cheeks gently, pulling her into a hug and petting her hair. "Don't worry, sweetheart." he whispered into Etcetera's ear, hugging her still.

Etcetera was hugging Mistokitty back when another idea came to her. "Heeeey... you're a magic kitty! You can dos magic! Can you use your magic to not die? Can you make it so Tugger never ever dies neither? Because I don't want him to die. I'd cry if he died. Everyone'd cry if Tugger died."
Jelly had been trying to teach Etcetera about the Heavyside Layer after Grizabella ascended. The concept of death was really the only thing that stuck in the kitten's mind.

Quaxo let out a little laugh and ruffled her fur gently, shaking his head slowly. "I'm sorry, Etcy. My magic may be strong, but I can't make cats immortal. That's impossible, sweetie." he murmured, petting her fur again. "But listen, Tugger won't die for a long time, either. I'll make sure of that, Etcy. If he gets hurt or something, I'll try and heal him for you, yeah? Quaxo giggled quietly and kissed her forehead.

"But you can do anything!" Etcetera squealed. "Like that time when you made Vicki POOF there, or when you made my tail disappear, or when you pulled that ribbon out of the can, or when you made the lights dance, or when you made things go BOOM! or when you brought back Old Deuty, or when you pulled us out of that big hat, or when you made your fur sparkle..." She continued on, beginning to bounce again, as she listed off all of the magic tricks she had seen Mistokitty perform in her short life.

"Etcy, I can do all of those 'cause they're just tricks, dear. I can't make cats live forever. Believe me, I've tried." Quaxo murmured, running his paw down her back and hugging her close. Wow, had he really done all those in less than a year? That's why he was so good at his magic. Ha.
Quaxo pulled away from her for a moment and leapt off of the car, landing gracefully on the ground. "Come on, Etc. Let's go wake up Munkustrap, huh?"

Etcetera frowned, scrunching up her nose, and then she shook her head. "Nah. You can do anything." With that firmly settled, she hopped off after Mistokitty, landing less than gracefully and nearly pitching forward onto her nose (and then she overcompensated in trying to catch herself and fell on her tail), but she quickly picked herself up and bounced alongside Mistokitty, hoping he didn't see her oopsy there. "Yay! Wakey, wakey, Munkstrap! We're comin' to getcha!" She liked it when she was allowed to wake up older kitties.
Munkustrap shivered in his sleep, feeling an inexplicable dread fill him...

Biting his lip softly, Quaxo led Etcetera inside Munkustrap's den. He went toward the older cat and nudged him with his paw gently, rubbing his side. "Munk, wake up." he murmured, trying to get Munkustrap at least a little bit awake before, as he knew would happen, Etcetera jumped on him.
Quaxo moved away, sitting behind Munkustrap and glancing up at the kitten. "Come on, Etcy. Get him." he giggled, smirking a little.

((^__^ Yeah, see the no-life bit...))
Etcetera covered her giggles with her paws as she followed Mistokitty into Munkstrap's den. She had only been in here twice before, once on a dare from Electra, and once because she had gotten in big trouble for fighting with Victoria. She had never been in here when Munkstrap was sleeping, though!
Munkustrap cracked his eyes open just a bit as the two cats entered, and quickly realized what was about to happen. He made a sound and shifted as if just having a dream, but, in reality, he was moving his injured back away from Etcetera. The kitten probably didn't realize he was hurt, and he didn't want her to aggravate things accidentally.
Etcetera crouched down, preparing a pounce. After a brief wiggle, she leapt with her fierce, "BARKBARKBARKRAWR!" scream, and Munkustrap bolted awake to catch her with a growl of his own, rolling her onto her back and tickling her. Etcetera shrieked in laughter.
