first drabble prev drabble next drabble

No beta! We going :D

*-------------------------*

Ccino pauses the clenaing of the counter as he waits impatiently for the last customer to leave. He loves and adores his cat cafe but it is already past 5 and he has been passive aggressively cleaning the tables around them.

Luckily the customers finish up soon after and leave with a cheerful wave.

Ccino rushes to turn the open sign to closed and turns off the main lamps. He closes the roll curtains and gets to work on cleaning the last table.

He however waits with cleaning the coffee machine, just in case.

Ccino keeps glancing at the enterance as he goes about cleaning up the cat toys and hearding the cats out of the kitchen once again. He fills their food bowls and puts fresh water into the water bowls and water fountains.

A glance at the clock shows that it is already half past six and Ccino sighs again.

No show again.

one of the cats stares at him and mews. Ccino glances over and knows it is Berry. He chuckles nad pets him "I dunno little Berry. Maybe I am overreacting..."

He can't help it. Ccino had just gotten used to having Nightmare visit once a week.

Many would proabbly tell him to tell the Stars. to make it obvious something was wrong. There had to be after all with Nightmare visiting.

Except that all Nightmare would do at first was study the cats. Ccino had once managed to collect all his courage, which wasn't a lot mind you, and ask Nightmare what he was doing.

Nightmare had looked at him before answering calmly. That he wanted to study the cats.

Ccino had been very worried. Mostly because there was one small detail about his cafe that people just seemed to ignore. there were the normal cats. the cats that ccino took in and helped find new owners for.

Then there were the special cats. the cats he would never let anyone adopt.

How do you explain that the reason a cat has blue fur is because the cat is somehow connected to an important player in the multiverse?

Yeah. He can't explain that.

Yet... none of the cross-multiverse customers ever seemed to notice. And that is saying something as the cats are not subtle!

But... Nightmare hadn't been here for that. He would always come after closing. He would just spend his time watching the cats interact and play togehter. And then he would leave after an hour.

Ccino had watched him watch them. Taking note that Nightmare never once actually reached out to touch them, even after the cats had gone over to investigate him!

he had pointed it out to nightmare once. just to see. mentioned that the cat near him now really liked pets. Nightmare had frowned slightly before slowly and so carefully petting the cat near him.

That had been a turning point. it is just... it is hard to see someone as evil and unredeemable when he just stared in wonder at a cat who accepted his petting.

Nightmare would keep coming by and Ccino would start to ask him what he wanted drink or food wise. Nightmare had been confused but Ccino had just pointed out the cafe part of the whole situation.

Nightmare would always order the same two things. An ice coffee with a lot of cream and sugar and the white chocolate cheesecake.

He would sit in a chair and just pet the cats that seemed to follow him around.

Nightmare meeting his own cat had been a sight to behold honestly. Noot had sneaked into the area without Ccino noticing only to have Nightmare suddenly have his own cat version licking his skull as if Noot had been planning on licking the goop away.

Trying to keep Noot or any of the gang cats away from Nightmare had been a struggle and eventually Ccino just gave up. He let the special cats near the outcode and nothing bad happened. Nightmar ejust petted the cats that came near him and left the ones who didn't alone.

Ccino sighs and turns off the coffee machine when it hits seven.

He is worried.

Which is stupid! There is no reason why Ccino should be worried about Nightmare! Maybe the other is just busy or something!

But here he is. waiting anxiously for one of his favourite customers to return.

Yes Ccino knows it is weird to grow slightly protective over a god but people just don't get it. Seeing someone interact with animals can change your perspective of someone and the way Nightmare just seemed so fascinated and mystified by the cats? Ccino can't explain how the wonder was just something he hadn't seen on just any customers. Nightmare had looked like he was only learning about cats for the first time in his life.

Ccino shakes his skull and focusses on the cats. he quickly finds Noot and their newest arrival.

Ccino smiles "Hey there Noot. How is your little friend doing?"

Noot opens his one eye and looks up before moving one of his four tails and revealing the little kitten that had just appeared.

Ccino has a good idea of who this little cat is. He had heard the rumours going around. About Dust and Cross having been spotted with a tiny babybones.

Ccino figures that is the kitten. Still strange that Noot was the one to first show up wiht the kitten just riding his back. It wasn't until a while later that the others in the cat gang got invested in the kitten, Dust- euh. Murder was first. Murder would pick the kitten up and go towards a spot and lazily clean the ktiten in the warm sunlight. Killer- well Stain was next. He went all up in Murder's business to get near the kitten. All while Noot just watched over them. Rust had been next and made sure to bring food to the tiny kitten. Rust never seemed to mind the ktiten playing even if it hit the headwound. Oreo was last but was now all over the kitten. staying near and watching continuously.

Another curious thing. How the five adult cats made sure to keep the new kitten far away from any of the other cats. a few tried and Ccino had been worried Murder would live up to his name for a moment there.

Ccino smiles nad pets Noot "Maybe that is why he hasn't visited... I am going to assume you are the baby's main babysitter with how often you are clsoe to the kitten."

It is just.. Noot has been getting slower and weaker. it may not be obvious to others but it was obvious to Ccino. the way Noot tended to hide more. ate less. spend more time just laying around instead of stalking others. How Noot would no longer climb to high places and just stay near the ground.

It is worrisome.

But Ccino has no idea what to do with this information... In matter of fact everyone seemed happy about the fact that the gang was quiet.

Ccino carefully strokes the soft fur of Noot "I am sorry i can't help more."

Noot however looks fully calm as he pushes his skull into the hand for a pet before turning back to the kitten and cleaning him.

Ccino follows the sight. It is a pretty little kitten alright. A beautiful black coat which seems to shine a slight purple in the direct sunlight. soft purple eyes and just the cutest little pink nose and pink toebeans.

The tiny kitten mews uphappily as Noot cleans him. some of that very soft fur sticking up from the cleaning.

Ccino sighs as he pets the older cat, noting that the sharp eyes seemed duller as well, before going to check the other cats. seeing the four other cats join their leader and kitten.

Ccino tries to calm himself as he goes back to the kitchen to finish cleaning and preparing.

everything is going to be okay.

*-------------------------*

Look. I am not gonna lie. I am weak for Ccino and Nightmare having been friends :D

first drabble prev drabble next drabble

[kotikaleo]

Tell me the headcannons *-*

OKAY!

Let's start with actor!Nightmare:

Overprotective brother

He used to live with Dream in the past, but now they live apart because Noot choose to rent some better apartment (since he as actor earns enough money for that), but Dream wanted to stay in their old house/apartment. But Noot still checks his brother every week. (and a bit more often, since Dream met Cross)

smol

but elegant

Have you seen his wool coat???? 💜💜💜

Don't like trust actor!Cross

Are in relationship with Killer. ❤️

Likes coffee and can't start working without it.

He is more like pre incident Noot, but with some oh his Corrupted version expirience.

I hope that I haven't forget anything.

Next is actor!Killer:

CATS. He feeds cats who lives near his home or studio also adopted two - one is white ~1 year young kitty and other is red stripped cat with one eye.

He still buying cheap clothes, even he has enough money to buy better ones. "They are comfortable, and I don't need more ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭"

And also uses the bus to come to work.

In love with Nootnoot 💜

Yet don't live with him. They talked about that, but turned out they feel more comfortable to live apart for now.

Cross' good friend. Not like Epic and Cross, they are BRUH&DUDE, just good pals

Used to smoke.

I feel like he is more like original Killer, when he has his soul shaped as normal soul. Calm and non violent person.

Ccino is pretty much the same, except that he is an intern and makes coffee in studio. Also SansCat follows him every where. And he at first falls in love with Nightmare and than with Killer. Shy fluffy boy.

I think that's all.

Also a little reminder that all this is just my headcanons, which aren't canons nor for original character, nor for studio AU (because there is nothing canon, everybody can make up anything!)

[small-bitty-rescue]

Scyryl

Noots and Dreams: @dotchi13, @tails-and-scales

Paladins and Errors: @askbittyerror

Pretty much the same as System Sansies, but with wings.

Likes: Cuddles, sweet foods, cats, flying, pretty stones, Paladins and other Dream types

Dislikes: Being abandoned, being betrayed, being yelled at, bitter foods, crashing

Feels safe around Dream type bitties and lamias, corrupted or not.

If you find a feral Scyryl, there is likely some kind of Dream bitty nearby.

They don't stray far from a Dream bitty unless they have to.

Is a "bad bitty," unless reformed by a Dream, most effective with Paladins.

Will avoid Nightmares, at least until they realize the Nightmare won't hurt them. Then they may get a bit attached.

Passive-aggressive

Will try to attack those they see as threats.

If you get bullied do not take him to school or work.

He will probably prank someone to the point of them dying. (Note: if he doesn't like someone, he will set up potentially deadly pranks. Like poisoning a drink.)

They have swords, but they don't bond to their sword, still not a good idea to take it though. They will find another weapon if you do, which will probably be more deadly.

He will steal from shops.

He has his ways of getting out of buildings.

About the size of a mouse or rat + flying = can get into places their non-winged counterpart can't.

They lay eggs instead of live birth, like the Methryl. For that reason, they prefer to be the one having the children in a relationship, as they've collectively decided laying eggs in a couple of minutes is better then giving birth for hours.

Will have jewelry in his rock collection. Don't worry, it's not yours.

Don't remove things from his rock collection without his permission.

If he vanishes for a couple of hours he's out stealing.

He will find a way to get the crystals out of the jewelry. When that time comes you might find random, jewelless peices of jewelry.

If you find jewelry on your pillow it's probably a stolen gift. If you put it on, he'll notice and be extremely happy.

It will mostly be bracelets and necklaces that you are given.

He will react to an Error the same way Systems do: go completely still and silent, until the Error Sansy is used to him. They also give Errors their space, and often find things to help the Error feel more comfortable. It seems to up their chances of survival.

He can read and write binary code as well as english.

Don't give spicy. Scyryls get sick from spicy foods, and it can cause serious problems.

Don't let him pick on his arms. If you see him doing that, reassure him that he's loved and cared for. They only do that when they're doubting themselves,or being bullied.

Probably a good idea to ask if someone has been bullying him.

Don't abuse him or any other person, bitty or biggy. He will get violent and end you, then take the other bitties and/or biggies to a bitty shop.

He will become depressed if he does, or if he's returned.

If you get one who's depressed, show him a lot of love, and you should probably get a Dream type, or even a Nightmare type, as they will accept any help they can get.

They just want to be loved.

Everything they do. . .

It's an attempt on their part to show they care.

Please just love them.
