I like how things that are normal when you were lkttle all of a sudden. It’s dawns on you that. Some of it was kind of creepy. I’m not sure which is more creepy: all the death and carnage or the fact that they follow an apparently invincible cat.

Song is still cool as toe beans.

Cat Came Back

Once upon a time (2007/8-ish) I outlined a story about two girls who grew up together as best friends. Lucy and Falyn. Whenever Lucy got in trouble, Falyn was always nearby to help her get out of it. Falyn wove stories throughout their childhood until Lucy decided that they were too old for such silly stories.

In high school, the night before Lucy's 18th birthday, Falyn asked Lucy if she would be an adult in the morning and Lucy scoffed at the idea and said she wouldn't be an adult until she was done with school or could drink or some other milestone only a few years away.

They went to college together and Lucy got increasingly frustrated by Falyn's lack of interest in the future. The two began to drift apart and Lucy started dating.

Then, one day, when that milestone Lucy set the night before her 18th birthday arrived, Falyn disappeared. Lucy searched, but found nothing. She thought again about how she'd never stayed over at Falyn's growing up, how she'd never met Falyn's family. All the old excuses, in the light of Falyn's disappearance, seemed paltry.

Then she finds Falyn's notebooks with all the old stories written down. And something happens (I think her mother says something or she remembers what Falyn said shortly before leaving) and she realizes that all of the stories are true.

(She obsesses over the stories for a while first and shares them with her boyfriend. He is supportive in her finding Falyn. He's a musician. When Lucy disappears, he turns some of the stories into songs. He hopes she or Falyn hears them and returns home.)

The wind fish. The rabbit colony on the moon. The cities swaying to and fro atop giant, long-legged elephants. The burrowing creatures living in the drop zone where moon colonists crash. The symphony of cockroaches who play their own bodies as complex instruments. The intricate society of cats.

She finds her way to that world and seeks out Falyn. And is given a test. A massive plain of water and stone hiding deep caverns and pits beneath. She falls and finds Falyn, but they don't have rope to climb out. But then she hears a song, her boyfriend's song, and uses the notes like a ladder to climb out of the cavern with Falyn.

After returning to the queen of cats, Lucy learns that her mother once saved Falyn's mother and, in exchange, Falyn's mother offered her daughter as a guardian and playmate for Lucy until Lucy reached adulthood. Lucy's mother still has a bell signifying this promise (Lucy did tell her mother, did find the bell, she has the bell and she places it on Falyn when she finds her; in this story belling a cat means claiming). Lucy learns that Falyn has lost several lives for Lucy, has given her life to keep Lucy alive.

And they return home. And the original ending was that Lucy and Falyn remain lifelong friends and their children are friends. In the version I didn't write down, it is Lucy/Falyn/Boyfriend OT3.

Someday maybe I'll write it. Until then, it is fully outlined with some scenes written out.

I also have a side story for the universe in which one of the singing cockroaches goes to the human world in human guise and falls in love. She cannot speak, but communicates through music and then sign language once she learns it. She falls in love and her boyfriend, once he learns the truth, has to come to terms with being in love with a magical cockroach.

thinking about simon being like a cat. a mean ol' one all teeth and claws, scratching and hissing when you stretch a hand out to him. biting you because that's all he knows how to do - it's all he's ever done - and it's kept him alive.

that's what his whole life's been about - staying alive. surviving. maiming anything he sees before it can get to him first. so he doesn't know how to react when you don't bare your teeth at him but just smile and make him tea. he reacts like a stray cat does when it's offered warmth - he's confused. and his confusion gives way to anger and again he spits fire because what else is he to do? accept your kindness? bah! it's a hoax, he knows that. you'll tire of him and claw at his neck sooner or later so he'd rather not let you close enough to do so.

and when you don't give up, and you keep smiling that gorgeous, dazzling smile at him, he doesn't know what to do. no one's ever done this before - been all soft and sweet and only wanting to be allowed to scratch at his ears in reward. why were you doing this? why didn't you run away when you saw how he snarled at you? why do you look at him with those big, beautiful eyes like he's the only person in the world?

at a complete loss, he lets you pet him and oh that smile he'd let you tear his heart out if you would just keep smiling at him. "hey, simon!" god, he wants to drown in the sound of your lips wrapping around his name. you come close to him and his brain stops working, eyes wide and lost when you wrap your arms around him and pull him to you. warmth. is this what it feels like? he wants to live forever in the crux of your arms, creating a life for himself between them.

he couldn't stop purring if he tried, if he were a cat he'd spend the rest of his time on this earth, the earth that tried to bury and kill him and is now making amends by sending him you, running between your legs and swishing his tail around you. simon riley who's always had his head on a swivel, who's not gotten a full night's sleep in a decade lest he miss the chance to look his reaper in the eyes, now sleeps with his head on your lap, belly up and purring.

shoutout ivypools SE for introducing a concept (merging clans because the leaders were in love) which was twice as interesting as the actual SE plot

i've been gone from this account forever but the Cats fandom is only alive on tumblr so...consider me back from the dead

[morganbritton132]

I think it’s really funny if no one told Steve that Will didn’t actually die and that the body in the lake wasn’t him because then Steve is running with the belief that Will legitimately came back from the dead. So when he goes to Dustin’s house to help him get ready for Snowball and he sees a picture of Mews, and then sees a cat that looks exactly like her with a similar enough name that he can’t hear the difference over the constant ringing in his ears, he doesn’t this it’s a new cat. The thinks Mews came back from the dead and Dustin has a zombie cat.

Marvels After Credit Scene that Didn't Happen but is Canon in My Heart:

So I really want a scene of one of the Flerkittens (white with blue eyes) to be wandering around the street meowing and then we see boots coming up to it and two hands reach out and then you see it.

The metal arm.

It picks up the kitten and walks off, maybe if you're feeling really fancy maybe a few lines of quiet "hey, hey, it's okay Sweetheart" or something like that and then BOOM we have Alpine in the MCU

Then cut to Thunderbolts and Bucky still has no idea that Al is a Flerken until they're in a fight and she gets attacked and Bucky is terrified they're gonna hurt his cat and then Alpine just gobbles them up and then like Yelena is like "JAMES BARNES WHAT THE FUCK"... Cut to Bucky looking equal parts horrified and impressed and just picks up Alpine and goes "uh...good girl?"

[whumpitisthen]

Two whumpees who are scared of each other:

Neither of them want trouble

They are both so afraid of being near the other they avoid each other constantly

They flinch away at the slightest touch like one person and their mirror image

They are strangers, they do not trust each other, they have been burned too many times in the past and they will not be burned again

They stare at each other from a distance, not daring to actually interact

They want to avoid a fight so bad that they won't even say a word

Whumper loves seeing them together because it's amusing how similar they are

Their uneasiness around the other is promptly forgotten when Whumper arrives

Whumpee can't have friends; Whumper doesn't want them to, and we all know what happens when Whumper sees Whumpee doing something they don't like

If hungry enough, they can be bribed with food to spend time in the other's vicinity

Non-human whumpees?! Two puppy boys being very nervous with pulled back ears and big sad eyes hiding behind their owner's legs

One Whumpee lives here and in theory should be more confident than the other one, seeing as they aren't the one in a strange unknown place. That confidence flees as soon as the Other Whumpee takes even a single step in their direction. They do not want to fight, they just want to keep an eye on them at all times.

They flinch back and the other one flinches back too. They cannot stop doing this

Caretaker basically has to pretend with each of them that the other doesn't exist. If they mentioned that their counterpart is in the room right across from them, Whumpee would not be able to sleep.

They sleep as far away from each other as the room they are kept in allows, backs to the wall, staying awake until they can't anymore

I think Whumper should collar them and bind them together with a short length of chain. For enrichment purposes... For me

One of them starts to finally unwind and gently tries to connect with the other. The other does Not react well. They are both scared again

One Whumpee has a lot of scars — must be a fighter -> scary

The Other Whumpee has no scars — must be a Really Good fighter -> scary

Whumpee looks just like the Other — must be just as desperate and unpredictable/their whumper must be just as bad/they must be at a similar level of strength as them, no guarantee to win if fight breaks out -> scary

One whumpee is scared because they have been tortured into perpetual fearfulness — the other has never been tortured, but sees how bad Whumpee has it, and being the newest addition to Whumper's collection has them just as terrified

Whumper forces them to interact. The forceful, scary nature of their meetings sets back their otherwise slow natural warming up to each other by miles, having the worst kind of counter effect. Seeing the other reminds them of that time Whumper made them sit and hold hands for hours with the threat of punishment if they disobeyed

They both escape. They see each other across the street. They freeze and stare, thrust back in time, stuck in their old frightened and cautious headspace. Their caretakers are perplexed.
