((Characters: Bombalurina, Cassandra, Etcetera, Jemima, Munkustrap, Munkustrap's human, another human, Plato, Pouncival, Quaxo, Tumblebrutus
Thread Summary: Munkustrap went out to lie in the sun, and his human talked to him a bit. Then kittens showed up, as well as older cats.
Cassandra flirts with Plato and Tumblebrutus, succeeding with Plato.
Etcetera stalks the adults and pounces on Munkustrap, but Quaxo catches her, and she runs off to play with Jemima.
Meanwhile, Bombalurina finds out that she's pregnant.
After Cassandra leaves, Tumble and Plato tussle, and Plato gets Tumble to reveal the object of his crush. Plato then reveals his own crush, but Tumble doesn't think the Tugger really counts.))
Munkustrap was lying on the old TSE 1, curled up, a sour look on his face. He hurt. Most of the kittens were avoiding him, sensing correctly that he wasn't in a very good mood.
He had come out early, despite his caretakers' (Jellylorum and Quaxo) protests for him to stay in bed, but he wanted the fresh air and the sun. When winter arrived, the sun would be scarce. Munkustrap didn't want to spend the few nice days left curled up in a den.
The junkyard human was still around, showing off some of the old cars to another human. Munkustrap kept an ear pointed in their direction, but he kept his eyes closed.
An' this here... oh, hello, Tiger. The man's calloused hand swept down Munkustrap's head and across his back. Munkustrap cracked an eye open and grumbled. This here's Tiger, the junkyard's dog. I tol' you we might see 'im. The humans laughed and Munkustrap grumbled again - being called a dog, of all things! He likes this car, but if there are parts you want...
Munkustrap tuned out the sound of the humans talking, not protesting the man's caresses with anything more than a grumble. He didn't have the energy to show his displeasure in any other way.
Eventually, the two humans moved on, and Munkustrap was allowed to rest in peace again. He settled down, complaining internally about the insensitive nature of humans. His human hadn't even noticed how his heavy-handed strokes kept tugging on Munkustrap's injuries!
Humans weren't the only insensitive creatures around. There were Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer... Munkustrap did not want to see those cats at this moment. They were very lucky he was too hurt to do much of anything - if he was in one piece, they wouldn't be! Not after pulling that stunt the other day... he thought they were dead! He had avenged them. He had killed a cat for their lives... lives which hadn't even been in any danger, he later learned! Munkustrap was rather disgusted with the pair, but more disgusted with himself. He had yet another life on his claws.
Tumblebrutus and Plato were two other cats Munkustrap wasn't too happy with. From what Quaxo had told him, those toms were acting uncomfortable and edgy around him, ever since they found out the truth about Quaxo's parentage. Munkustrap couldn't really blame them... but right now, when he was cranky, it was just easier to be mad at everyone for the littlest things.
Here, Tiger.
Munkustrap opened his eyes and looked up, nose twitching. His human had returned and was crouched next to the car, holding out a piece of fish.
It's tuna. You like tuna, right?
Munkustrap blinked at the human, and the human set the fish down in front of the cat. Munkustrap sniffed at it and then began to nibble at the fish. He looked up with a growl when the human reached out toward him.
Shh, easy boy, the human said softly. I thought I felt some cuts when I was pettin' you earlier. I jus' wanted to see if you were hurt.
Munkustrap slowly relaxed, letting his ears come forward again. Maybe humans weren't as insensitive as he had thought. At least, not this one. He let the man check him over, nipping at his fingers if the man got too touchy.
