#they all have separation anxiety like rescue kittens

[phatcatphergus]

Let’s be real here guys. As much as we and the eye believe that the only people that survived and will get to quesadilla island are on the boat, I highly doubt that Tubbo, and especially Fit, would let Pac stay in purgatory for long. You know that the second they land foot on dry land their clingy asses are devising a plan to go back and get Pac, anyone else is just an added bonus.

I can see Pac, sitting on the beach, crying bc he just lost his son and his family when he hears screaming coming from the ocean before he sees a huge ass boat that Tubbo built speeding over the waves at unimaginable speeds. Once it crashes into the shore theres a lot of crying and hugging and “I thought you left me!” “We would never leave you!” Before they all realize that there are, in fact, other people aside from Pac there that they completely forgot about saving when Tubbo and Fit made the plan in a separation anxiety induced panic.

it's been tough. like, seriously tough. your cat ears perk up as your hand reaches for the phone resting on the kitchen counter.

you've been attempting to be a really good kitty, but it's just not working out. your tail sways back and forth behind you. owners!ateez have left you all alone at home for the first time. normally, when they stepped out, at least one of them would stay with you, cradling you in their arms. but this time, luck wasn't on your side. yeosang rained apologies upon your hair, muttering about a super crucial meeting regarding some important business at their company.

you totally get it. your humans are busy men. but you can't shake off the uneasiness that settles in your chest, making it tighten beneath jongho's shirt.

you make up your mind to give them a call. it's alright, you reassure yourself, confident that they won't be bothered. you're simply going to ring them up to find out when they'll be back. you can handle it.

you grab the phone and launch the calling app, pondering over whom to dial. your gaze lingers on the mere eight saved numbers, and you allow your index finger to hover over each one thoughtfully, contemplating their potential responses. who among them would be the least peeved at being disturbed during a meeting?

all of them are nice, but you're aware that a few of them tend to get super absorbed in their work. you nibble on your lower lip, feeling your fangs gently puncture tiny holes into it, recalling seonghwa's gentle admonishment about this habit. his thumb would always come to rescue, freeing your lip from between your teeth, as you taste the metallic tang on your tongue. releasing your lip, you muster the courage and press the number of your choice.

you lift the phone to your ear and patiently await the sound of the ringing tone.

the person on the other end answers promptly, causing your breath to catch in your throat.

"sorry, i have to take this call, i'll be right back you can go on without me, yunho, fill me in on what i missed once the meeting's done," you hear mingi's gravelly voice, and your heart tightens at the realization that he didn't even wait to find a private moment to answer the phone.

"hey baby, everything alright?" you hear a door close, muffling mingi's words slightly, but it doesn't hinder the tears welling up in your eyes.

you part your lips, intending to ask the question you've been mustering the courage to pose for the past hour, but instead, a choked-up sob escapes from your throat.

"baby?" this time, mingi's voice takes on a breathy tone, and you can hear him swallow hard. "what's going on, kitty? what's wrong?"

you attempt to respond, but it feels like something is lodged in your throat, causing only coughs to escape, while more tears stream down your face.

"shh, it's okay, kitten. just take a breather," his deep voice resonates through the phone. "in and out, inhale, exhale. yeah, just like that. good girl." you can hear the smile in his voice as you attempt to follow his instructions, albeit shakily.

"are you okay now, kitty? can you tell me what's wrong?" he finally asks, as he senses your breath evening out.

"miss you," you simply answer, while rubbing at your eyes. it's a simple phrase, just two words, but they manage to convey your feelings as you hear mingi hum in response.

"i'll tell the boys to wrap up the meeting. we'll be there in 20. is that okay with you, baby?" mingi assures, offering a solution to your longing.

no, it's not. twenty minutes feels far too long, and before you can concoct a convincing enough lie to spare him any annoyance, mingi interrupts your train of thought.

"actually, baby, we'll be there in 10 minutes. we'll ditch the chauffeur and have wooyoung drive. in the meantime, go to the closets and grab whatever clothes you want," he croons, waiting for a genuine response this time.

"no, hongjoong's gonna be mad," you shake your head, even though mingi can't see you. clutching the phone tighter in your hand, you recall hongjoong's expression when you had raided his closet, piling up all his expensive clothes on your bed, yearning for his scent. he had been kind, explaining gently that you couldn't do that, but you couldn't ignore the visible veins that had surfaced on his forehead upon discovering his favorite balmain suit buried beneath the covers.

"no, he won't, and even if he is, i'll tell him i gave you permission, okay?" mingi reassures, determined to ease your worries about hongjoong's potential reaction.

"okay," you reply softly, your voice carrying a mix of relief and trust in his words.

"i'll hang up then. we'll be there soon enough," mingi confirms, the anticipation evident in his voice.

"okay," you respond once more.

"love you?" mingi asks in a peculiar manner, and you understand that he's subtly requesting to hear you say "i love you." it strikes you as odd, since you never fail to reciprocate those three words.

"love you," you respond, and before hanging up, you hear a playful "mwah" followed by the disconnection of the call.

you swiftly release the phone without a second thought and make your way through each room, collecting a piece of clothing from each of the boys. as you enter hongjoong's room, you pause in front of his wide-open closet. your gaze fixates on the velvety texture of his renowned black and white balmain suit, but you opt against taking it after catching a faint trace of his scent, faded from the length of time it had remained unworn. instead, you choose to retrieve one of his cozy hoodies, adding it to the growing pile in your hands.

you make your way back to your room, tossing all the clothes onto your bed. following suit, you bounce onto the soft surface, sliding yourself under the covers. taking the gathered clothes, you form them into a ball and press it against your face, inhaling deeply. the intertwined scents of your beloved humans instantly envelop you, bringing a profound sense of tranquility.

without even realizing it, you drift off to sleep, your ears being the only things peeking out from beneath the cozy pink covers.

you gradually awaken to the sensation of gentle kisses being planted on your nose. you open your eyes slightly, only to be greeted by san's blond bangs. before you can even process his presence in your bed, you feel the comforting touch of another pair of cold hands softly scratching the base of your ears. a purr instinctively emanates from your chest, and san smiles against your pulse, relishing the soothing vibrations against his own skin, a sensation he always adores.

you manage to turn, your eyes half-closed as the light filters in, and they settle on hongjoong's gentle smile. he's still dressed in a suit, and you blush at the sight. you adore him in sweatpants and oversized shirts, but your heart can't help but flutter faster in his presence.

you hear san chuckle, his head still nestled in your neck.

"kitty, your heart's beating so fast. happy to see daddy?" he mumbles, strong hands intertwining around your waist, his palm coming to rest on your chest, feeling the gentle thud of your heart.

hongjoong's smile widens as you glance away, unable to meet his gaze due to the embarrassment. he bends down slightly, his hand reaching to gently hold your cheeks. you revel in the coolness of his touch, appreciating how his hands always seem to be refreshingly cold.

"i'm happy to see you too, kitten. i missed you so much, couldn't stop thinking about you during that boring meeting," he whispers in the quiet room. you feel san nod against you, his arms tightening around you, and he murmurs a "me too."

"where are the others?" you inquire, noticing the absence of their hands on your body, causing a slight twitch in your eyebrows.

"in the shower, they're coming soon" hongjoong answers, his smile never leaving his face as he looks down at you. you nod in response, managing to free one hand from san's grasp, reaching out for hongjoong, and the eldest boy takes your hand. he sits down next to you, his eyes never wavering from your gaze as he drops a soft kiss to your forehead.

and soon enough you feel the thumping sounds of footsteps in the hallways, approaching your door. the boys enter to find you sandwiched between san and a shirtless hongjoong, his vest and dress shirt long forgotten on the heated floor of your room.

About Vegetto and why he is one of my favorite DragonBall characters

Vegetto is one of my favorite Dragonball characters, (I also like Gogeta and in my point of view Gogeta and Vegetto are basically the same character and have the same personality, they just appeared in different contexts).

But what I like most about Vegito, especially in his first appearance against Buu in Dragonball Z, is how selfish he is and puts his own interests first, which doesn't differ from Goku and Vegeta essentially, both are selfish and always seek their own interests first, they are different only in those interests.

The universe is under threat and can be destroyed by Buu, but as soon as he is "born", his first priority is not to defeat Majin Buu as quickly as possible, much less save the universe, as would be (more or less) Goku's priority , as Goku was just desperate to repair the damage he had done by not defeating MajinBuu once and for all when he had the chance when using his SSJ3 transformation for the first time.

But his first priority is to save his children Gohan, Trunks and Goten, because at this moment these 3 are technically his children and I'm sure Vegetto felt it fully, since he considered his fusion to be certain and permanent, and his friend Piccolo's, his friendship inherited from Goku, which shows that neither Goku nor Vegeta were dominant in their fusion, he was his own person, but with the memories and feelings inherited from Goku and Vegeta.

Did Vegito need to worry about that? Theoretically not, because just as he thought there might be a way to remove these 4 from MajinBuu's body, he could have thought about killing MajinBuu first and then resurrecting them separately from MajinBuu with the Dragon Balls, in terms of risk , it would be the same, but he CHOSE to try to rescue them first, which shows that his decisions were made purely by his feelings and not for a cold, pragmatic reason, which he could have done, but I like this because it shows that Vegetto didn't sees himself at this moment as a play or a wild card, he sees himself as a real person (unlike Gogeta who many say is going "straight to business", but Gogeta knows that it is a temporary existence and that it will only last 30 minutes, he NEEDS to be more pragmatic, unlike Vegetto in his first appearance.)

He proved to be playful, calm, peaceful, tactical, manipulative and unafraid of taking risks like Goku and cold, calculating, analytical, intelligent, strategic, sarcastic (and sometimes sadistic) like Vegeta, but without the latter's anxiety about uncertainty ( not that Vegeta doesn't accept risks, but he is much less tolerant of risk and uncertainty than Goku) and without Goku's extreme recklessness (the latter is carefree to the point of giving enemies chances just for fun or to "educate" children (his children and Trunks) as warriors - I think that here, Goku lets his instincts as a Saiyan speak louder than reason and get the better of him (like cats that teach their kittens to hunt by showing them live prey, but Goku, different of cat moms, forgets to weaken his preys first, which doesn't happen with Vegeta as he is still able to calculate risks, he even took Trunks and Goten off the battlefield).

And with this willingness to take big risks, and also a hint of indifference to the fate of the universe (which I credit to Vegeta here lol), because his loved ones are currently dead and he doesn't want to kill MajinBuu with his children and Piccolo absorbed in his body this time, he risked being absorbed by MajinBuu without being sure that his plan would work just to try and rescue them.

It's one of the things that makes me like his character, he wasn't just there to kill Buu, He wore his “heart on his sleeve” Even though he's not clearly expressive about it (neither Goku nor Vegeta emotionally express their feelings, either) but his actions speak for him and I don’t think many realized that.

But that's one of the reasons why Vegito is one of my favorite DragonBall characters, apart from his personality and design, of course.

Wrapped Around Your Finger

MASTERLIST

This was a request from @theitcaramelchick​ where daddy Spencer ends up caving into his little girl when she begs to adopt a cat. I was melting a bit while writing it, just be warned. I love me some daddy Spencer. Happy reading!

Spencer Reid/Reader

Word Count: 2,721

Rating: G (fluff)

Spencer lived for his daddy-daughter dates with his little girl, Willow.

She had asked to get ice cream, so getting her ice cream is what he did. She was happily eating her cone of mint chocolate chip but getting it more on her face than actually in her mouth.

“You love mint chocolate chip ice cream like your daddy, don’t you?” he smiled.

“Mhm,” she nodded big, taking another bite.

“Your face is a mess,” he chuckled, not bothering to wipe it just yet.

“Oops,” she giggled.

They’d been to the library previously, for her to pick out a book or two to have for the week. He was big on making sure his little girl was exposed to books and reading. So far, she loved having stories read to her, even pretending to read them herself. He couldn’t wait until she started reading on her own.

She kicked her legs happily as she sat in the chair, enjoying her ice cream.

“Daddy?”

“Yes baby?”

“Where’s your ice cweam?”

“I ate mine already,” he answered.

“Oh.”

“I ate mine without making a mess like you are, Princess,” he chuckled, tickling her side a bit.

She squealed and squirmed from his touch.

He grinned, taking her in. Sometimes he still couldn’t believe how big she’d gotten recently. She was no longer his little baby girl, but a growing girl with a mind of her own and stubbornness to rival her mother’s.

Today she was dressed in a periwinkle, sleeveless romper with a bright and colorful fruity pattern on it. Ruffles along the edges from the shoulder to the waist of the romper and little pink striped decorated pockets completed the adorable outfit. 

Y/N had put Willow’s light brown wavy curls in pigtails this morning, but by now they were starting to look disheveled with strands of her hair falling in her face from all the running and playing she’d been doing. 

He reached over to push a strand of hair out of her face and she looked at him with the same hazel eyes as his and gave him a big smile.

Y/N often said that Willow had gotten his own huge, heartwarming smile and in that moment he had to admit he could see what she meant.

“How in the world do you have ice cream on your nose?” he laughed.

“I don know,” she shrugged honestly, causing him to chuckle more.

“You’re a mess munchkin.”

He kissed her head and waited until she finished her cone then wiped her entire face with a baby wipe from his backpack.

“Your mommy will kill me if she finds out I let you have ice cream this close to dinner.”

“Our secwet,” she beamed holding out her pinkie.

Spencer smiled, hooking his much larger pinkie around hers.

“You finished?”

“Ya,” she nodded, trying to climb out of the chair.

He picked her up, holding her with one arm and grabbed their trash in the other, walking to deposit it in the trash can. 

When the two were out of the ice cream parlor, he set her down on the sidewalk and took her hand.

“Daddy?”

“Mhm?”

“When brudder be hewe?”

Spencer smiled, thinking of Y/N who was currently 22 weeks with their little boy.

“In about four months,” he answered.

“How long dat?” Willow asked, looking up at him confused.

“Still a little while longer, lady bug. He’s got to grow big and strong before he can leave mommy’s belly.”

“Well I want to see him,” she pouted.

Spencer chuckled. Willow was definitely something else alright. 

Suddenly, Willow was practically pulling him to a stop. To be so tiny, she sure had quite the strength against him.

“Daddy look at the da doggies and kitties! Can we go look?”

“Not today, sweetie.”

Spencer knew good and well that if he let Willow in the shelter it would take all his energy to pull her away when it was time to go. He loved that about his little girl though. She loved animals so much and had such a huge heart that was ever expanding to include more people and more animals.

“Pwease, pwease, pwease?”

She pouted up at him before wrapping her arms around his leg, attaching herself to it. 

He didn’t miss the amused glances and smiles from the passing strangers. It must be quite the sight to see this tiny girl quite literally clinging to his leg, as adorable as it was.

“Okay, okay. We can go in,” Spencer gave in.

It was hard to say no to her, much to Y/N’s dismay. But she too, experienced the same difficulties sometimes. Willow was for the most part, a well behaved little girl, so it wasn’t a big deal to spoil her a little here and there.

He bent down and unattached her from his leg, holding her in his arms.

“But we can’t stay long, alright? Mommy will be home from her doctor’s appointment soon and will want help with dinner. Deal?”

“Deal,” Willow nodded seriously.

They were welcomed warmly upon their entering and were told to feel free to walk around and interact with the animals. Willow was instantly in heaven.

“Hi dere,” she waved to one dog in a pen nearest to her.

The big German Shepherd came over, sniffing her hand briefly before licking it, causing Willow to giggle.

“Daddy it kiss me,” she beamed at Spencer.

“I see,” he chuckled, rubbing the friendly canine under his jaw.

Willow’s hand reached out between the pen bars, patting the snout of his nose. The dog gave a happy little bark, pleasing Willow.

“Bye bye doggie,” she waved again as they moved on to more residents.

Willow being her normal self had to stop at every pen she crossed, talking and playing with every animal in her path.

She giggled and patted the heads of a pen of puppies, squealed with delight when a kitten nuzzled against her hand and grinned from ear to ear when she got to pet a bunny. It even allowed her to kiss it on the nose. She got a little lick kiss back from the bunny making her scrunch her nose, claiming it tickled.

But Spencer knew he was in trouble when they came across one pen where a black and white fluffy cat laid. It peered at him and Willow curiously, but made no effort to get up to check out these new visitors.

“I wanna pet it,” she pouted, unable to reach her small arm far enough through the bars to the cat.

“This little guy is a new rescue,” one of the workers said, coming up to them, “He’s very hesitant to new people. In fact, he still hasn’t quite warmed up to anyone else. Would you like to go in and give him a treat though, honey?”

“Can I daddy?”

The young girl’s hopeful eyes looked up at Spencer.

“I don’t see why not,” he smiled.

“Just give me a second,” the worker replied before stepping away to fetch the treat.

A minute or so later, she returned with a treat in her hand and a key to unlock the pen.

“Just be gentle, okay sweetheart?” she told Willow.

Willow nodded seriously, walking into the pen.

“Here mista kitty. I have tweat. I pwomise not to bite.”

She sat down a bit further away from him than Spencer expected. He thought she would go in eager to pet the cat and startle or frighten it, but she was surprisingly gentle and patient with it.

He could see it had black ears and a ring of black around the center of its face. The outer edge of the cat’s face was white fluff. Its striking blue eyes were the most memorable part of it though.

“What breed is he?” Spencer asked, still watching Willow.

“We think he’s a Himalayan. It’s basically a mix of a Persian and a Siamese cat,” the worker answered.

He nodded, even though he didn’t have quite as much knowledge on cat breeds as he did statistics or serial killers.

Spencer was shocked to see movement from the cat. He had been sitting so silently, studying Willow, he was sure the cat had no interest in her. But slowly he stood, walking over to her.

It sniffed the treat in her outstretched palm before taking a small nibble.

“Can I pet you?” Willow asked sweetly.

Ever so gently, her hand rested on his back, stroking it softly. 

Spencer was always so surprised to see just how smart and compassionate she was, even to be such a young girl. Y/N would definitely say that she got all her heart from him, but Spencer liked to think she got a double dose from both of them resulting in her sweet nature.

“He’s so fluffy,” she giggled.

“He is,” Spencer nodded, imagining the mess of shedding this cat would cause.

She continued to pet him gently as he ate the treat out of her hand. 

Spencer didn’t know what it was, but something had made the feline trust his little girl and frankly he couldn’t be more proud of her.

“What’s his name?”

She tilted her face up at the woman, a questioning look on her face.

“Well, he doesn’t have a name yet. We were hoping he would be adopted soon and his new family could name him whatever they wanted.”

It was at that moment that the cat decided to climb into her lap and curl up. The look on Willow’s face said it all.

She was totally in love.

“Can we keep him? Pwease?”

He opened his mouth to protest, but when he saw the pleading look on her face combined with how at peace the cat looked, he knew he couldn’t say no. The cat had taken to Willow just as much as she’d taken to him.

“I guess we’re getting a cat.”

•

You had just gotten home from your latest check up and were walking in the door, when you spotted something out of the ordinary.

You were happy to know that baby boy was doing great and growing just as he should be. You couldn’t wait to be reunited with your boyfriend and little girl. It might just be the pregnancy hormones, but you always found yourself longing to be with the two of them, missing them so much even when you were only away for an hour or two, like today. It was like bad separation anxiety mixed with a need to constantly cuddle. Your happy place truly was with your little family and you just couldn’t get enough time with them.

You had set your keys on the counter and was getting ready to go look for Spencer and Willow, figuring they were home since you’d seen his car parked in the driveway.

You cut through the kitchen, heading towards the stairs, when something in your peripheral made you stop.

There was an open doorway from the kitchen into your living room, so you could see into the room. It always came in handy when keeping an eye on Willow playing when you were fixing dinner or cleaning.

What stopped you was a round ball of fluff in black and white, curled up on your couch.

“Spencer! Reid!” you hollered.

Moments after your yell, came the sound of your daughter’s feet on the stairs, her excited voice in competition.

“Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!”

She came barreling towards you when she’d descended the stairs, wrapping her arms around you, but more or less hugging your growing stomach.

“Hi baby,” you leaned down to pick her up.

She was definitely not a baby anymore. Picking up a toddler while five and a half months pregnant wasn’t ideal anymore.

Spencer soon followed her down the steps. You knew better than anyone that it was difficult to keep up with a three year old’s energy.

“Mommy we got a cat!”

“I see that,” you grinned tightly at her, shooting daggers with your eyes at Spencer.

“Uh honey why don’t you go keep him company, okay?” Spencer said.

“Okay!”

She wiggled in your arms until you set her down then ran into the living room.

“Before you get mad-” Spencer started.

“Spencer there’s a ball of fluff sleeping on my couch,” you said.

“Yes, I realize that.”

“A cat though, really? Look how furry it is! I’m gonna be cleaning fur up from everywhere.”

“I promise I have a good reason,” he answered sheepishly, “Willow wanted to visit a shelter that we passed by today after we went out for ice cream, so I thought it couldn’t hurt.”

You raised an eyebrow, curious to hear the rest. You weren’t mad, just a little bit aggravated that he hadn’t consulted you before bringing home a pet.

“Of course, you know her. She had to say hello and stop and visit with all the animals,” he rubbed the back of his neck before he continued, “Well she got to his pen and one of the shelter staff said that he was a rescue that seemed really wary of people and he hadn’t opened up to anyone yet.”

You had a feeling you knew where this was going.

“The lady asked if she wanted to give him a treat and of course she did. So she walks in and I’m thinking she’s gonna terrorize the poor thing just because she wants to pet him. But she didn’t. She just sat patiently a little ways away from him and let him come to her, which he eventually did. He sniffed her, ate the treat and let her pet him before he nuzzled her and curled up in her lap. How could I say no to her begging to keep him?”

You smiled, your heart warming at how gentle of a soul your little girl was. Spencer had a point. You knew you would’ve had a hard time saying no to her too, especially since he had seemed to warm up to Willow.

“He’s actually a really sweet cat. He let me pet him too. Also, the woman said he should be little trouble because he’s a very laid back breed that is known for loving kids and being good for children. He��s a total family cat, if that helps.”

“Alright, I can’t blame you. You’re just too wrapped around her little finger,” you chuckled, wrapping your arms around his neck, kissing his nose.

“That I am,” he smiled, a gentle kiss on your lips following.

“Well, I guess we’ll just be a family of five now,” you smiled.

“Speaking of,” he grinned, pulling back from your embrace enough to splay his hands across your belly, “How is my little Jay?”

“Growing like a weed, just like he should be.”

Ever since finding out the two of you were having a boy, the decision of a name was definitely a hot topic between you and Spencer. He wanted to name him Carl after Carl Sagan, which you up and refused.

But finally a name did come together with a few tweaks here and a little compromising there.

Little Jason Carl Reid—to be called Jay—, was named after the first mentor Spencer had in his early years in the BAU and of course, Carl Sagan. Little Jay was going to be the fourth member of your family, but now it seemed like he would be the fifth.

“I know you’re not thrilled about this, but I promise I’ll make it up to you. Anything you want.” 

He wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close.

“Ooh, anything I want? Would you still make it up to me even if I said I don’t mind the cat?”

You smirked suggestively, causing him to chuckle.

“Yes, yes I would. The pregnant woman always wins, I don’t make the rules.”

You grinned, going in for another kiss when your daughter’s squeals interrupted you.

“Mommy, look! Biscuit loves me!”

You and Spencer looked over to see Biscuit laying completely flat beside Willow on the couch. You had to admit, he did look pretty content.

“Biscuit?” you asked, shooting an amused glance in Spencer’s direction, wondering why on earth he’d let your three year old name the cat.

“Just glad we didn’t go with her first suggestion,” he deadpanned.

“Which was?”

“Sir Snuggleton.”

Shattered Lives Ch 40 Pt 1

Sildie woke refreshed, even if miss Lily was screaming her head off feeling anything but. “I’ll get her.” She chuckled as Gustaf went to move her off him to do exactly that.

“You sure?” He mumbled. She loved that half asleep voice, the crumpled look on his face that told her he’d slept and slept hard.

“I’m sure sleepy head.” Her kiss was sinful.

“Someone had a good night.” She heard the smirk in his voice and giggled.

“Yeah some guy fucked my brains out, he wasn’t bad.” His expression made her laugh as she threw her robe on. “You’re better.” She grinned and kissed him chastely.

“I should hope so.” He growled indignantly. “Otherwise I’d have to prove otherwise kitten.”

“Promise?” She teased, her lips brushing against his.

“Absolutely.” His grin was wicked before he devoured her mouth.

“Goodie.” She kissed him again before she sashayed away to rescue Lily from her wet diaper, the groan and thump of something heavy hitting the bed confirming he’d face planted into the pillow.

“You kill me love.” He called after her. “All those salacious curves.”

She changed and dressed Lily for the day, roused the boys and had them start to pack while she made breakfast, Brendan offered to supervise and she knew he was still a little shaken from yesterday. When she asked him about it he said that he and Gustaf had talked. Her man never ceased to amaze her, the way he just took care of things, explained things to the boys so they understood without freaking out.

Coming into the kitchen there he was, sweats slung low on his hips, those lower back dimples she adored in full view, simple white cotton tee, so normal yet so fucking sexy.

“Tea is steeping.” He said quietly as Lily squealed a dad dad and lunged for him. “And good morning to you too little lady.” He chuckled as Sildie handed her over, not that Lily gave her much of a choice in the matter.

So normal, she thought, and Ana doesn’t get to destroy this, she doesn’t get to take this from him, from us, she’s not worth it. She had to try harder for Gustaf, to not let her anxiety spiral as quickly as it did yesterday, he was trying, and she needed to do the same. Together, together they were stronger.

“That’s a lot of thinking going on in there.” He said gently, tapping her temple and kissing her, catching her unawares.

“Sorry.” She shook her head as if to clear the thought physically.

“You ok?” He asked, brow creasing in concern.

“Yeah, just reiterating to myself that she doesn’t get to destroy this and she’s not worth the effort of getting as upset as I did.” She shrugged. He left the pancake batter for the moment and crossed to her, pulling her in for a hug.

“No she doesn’t.” He toyed with the wisps of hair that hung at her cheek. “I love you.”

“I love you too and I’m so ready to eat, get packed up, and get in the car and go.” She kissed him sweetly and he smiled, she was putting it behind them where it belonged. “Just a blip. I freaked out yesterday, but she’s just a blip and we need to move past it.”

“Just a blip.” He murmured and kissed her, that longing making her go weak at the knees.

“Or you could just kiss me like that again.” She sighed, his chuckle making her smile when he did exactly that.

“Anything for you my love.” He grinned devouring her mouth a third time. He smooched Lily after she made a fuss until she crumpled against him giggling. “And you too Lily bear.” Turning back to the pancake batter Lily helped stir in the milk while Sildie poured the tea.

She took over cooking the pancakes as Lily was determined dad dad was her go to person of the morning and would not be denied cuddles and kisses and the mans undivided attention. “I’ll go and start packing for this monster.” He said softly and kissed the back of her neck causing her to shiver.

“Sounds good.” They were becoming a team she realized, still a little disjointed, but better than it had been when they lived in separate apartments. As she fussed around the kitchen making breakfast she smiled at the noise from the boys rooms, happy, excited noise. No tears, no sadness, no grief, just three boys that were finally having a childhood and making some memories.

Her phone pinged with an incoming text and she held her breath as she opened it. Leon.

Some good news for you at last, they remanded her in custody, no bail. Trial is set for February 16. She’ll be cooling her jets in a cell for a few weeks. The judge was not amused.

She let out an explosive breath and grinned. Some justice at long last. But she knew what the judge wasn’t amused by, the potential to walk on a deal.

Thanks for the update Leon. We’re out of town for the next ten days. Let’s touch base when I’m back to work?

Sounds good. I’ll copy Lindstrom, make sure you contact him when you get back into town. This will undoubtedly pull you and Lucas into it, maybe Gustaf.

Absolutely. I’ll be emailing him here in a moment regardless. We are prepared for whatever comes.

Sounds good. Have a great break, god knows you deserve it.

Count on it. Thanks again, for everything.

She owed Leon more than he realized. The fact he’s found her charm was just the start.

“Why the grin that clearly says you’re the cat who ate the canary and got all her Christmases at once?” Gustaf chuckled as he came in a little while later with Lily chattering in his arms and her bag.

She turned her screen around and showed him the messages from Leon and watched a grin spread across his face.

“I’m not one to bask in another’s misfortune.” He said. “But, it’s about fucking time something went right for us.”

“It’s only just beginning love, but this is a damn good start.” She kissed him fiercely.

“A long road ahead huh.” It wasn’t a question, because he knew damn well this was just the start of the shit storm that was brewing.

“I guess we’ll see. I’m not celebrating just yet.” She said chewing on her lip, brain going a mile a minute.

“Fair point.” He kissed her tenderly, the action freeing her lip and pulling her thoughts away from their destination of work. “Let it go now love.” The pleading look in his eyes had her drop all those toxic thoughts in a heartbeat. “We both need to let it go for now.” He smiled at her nod.

“You’re right. Letting it go. We have snowball fights to organize, marshmallows to toast, giggles and smiles to enjoy.” She said blowing out a breath and grinned.

“Amongst other things.” The goofy wiggle of his eyebrows had her chuckling.

Once breakfast was ready they sat as a family around the table, eating and laughing, throwing around ideas and what activities they were going to do at the cabin. With full bellies the kids helped Gustaf pack the car while Sildie packed her own clothes, got an email off to Lindstrom, and sorted the snacks. Car packed, children buckled in, Gustaf looked over the top of the car at her and let out a breath. “We got everything?” He grinned, it had been a flurry of non stop activity all morning.

“Kids, clothes, food, and most importantly, you sweet man. It’ll have to be everything or we’re never going to get out of here.” She snorted.

“Exactly what I was thinking.” He was almost bouncing with excitement to get going like the big kid at heart he was. She loved seeing this side of him carefree and happy.

They were finally in the car and on their way before she noticed it hanging from the rear view mirror. The ribbon still stained with red paint, the charm needing a good clean and a little worse for wear, but it was there, where it belonged. He hadn’t gone out and replaced it just to make her happy. He’d found a way to find it, to right the wrong of another human. To maintain a piece of her brother, a man he never knew. She reached up a hand to brush a finger over it and looked at him, her eyes welling with tears of gratitude. He got it, he got her, and what she needed, what that one little gesture meant to her and the kids.

His quick glance at her before snagging her hand and kissing her fingers had her smile through the tears. That smile was all the thanks he needed before he lightly held onto her hand as he drove. The grief was there but she seemed more at ease with it now. Allowing it to surface and be there but not overwhelm her or send her spiraling into despair.

A few hours later they arrived, his best girls fast asleep, the twins quietly chatting, Brendan with his nose in a book. He felt the stress leave him as the boys climbed out of the car, all the anger and frustration from the past week melting off him. He sighed, the snowy landscape in front of him consuming every ounce of stress and bitterness. It had only been a week yet it felt like a year. “Brendan can you get the twins inside? Maybe choose your rooms and then come grab the bags?”

“Sure.” The teen rounded up his brothers and they headed inside to explore.

“Don’t wander too far.” He called.

“We won’t.” The three of them answered.

“Masters of mischief.” He mumbled as he rounded the front of the car grinning. “They’ll be in the snow hurling it at each other in minutes.” He chuckled. It reminded him of Alex, Sam, and Bill when they were kids, always getting into something they weren’t supposed to.

Opening the the passenger door he crouched down and grazed his knuckles along Sildie’s cheek, her sharp inhale as she woke telling him she had been out cold.

“I’m up.” She mumbled.

“You crashed.” He chuckled. “Must be the mountain air.” She could hear the humor in his voice.

“Must be, or it was the mind blowing sex I had last night.” She said softly, that face she thought, they broke the mold when they made him. Eyes of ocean blue and a sinful poets mouth.

“I wear you out kitten?” He growled, that tone he knew made her wet.

“Not complaining.” She snorted.

“The boys are exploring the cabin.” He said seeing the question on her face at the quiet in the car. “I was about to get Lily out and then get the boys to help start hauling everything in.”

“I’ll get Lily, take her in.” She said as he stood and opened the back door.

“I’ll go and see what mischief the boys have found then. It’s way too quiet in there.” He chuckled, kissing her cheek quickly before going to hunt down the boys.

The kids had found mischief, already outside having a snowball fight which was why the cabin was so quiet. Rounding them up, all smiles and giggles, they helped Gustaf unpack the car while Sildie took Lily inside and put her down for the rest of her nap.

As it was well past lunch time Sildie started to prepare an early dinner as Gustaf took the kids exploring in and around the cabin, finding out where everything was and what the place had to offer. By the time they sat and ate the twins were already planning their day tomorrow.

“How about we each choose an activity for the day and all do it together?” She said watching them closely, half expecting the boys to balk at the idea of doing something she might want to do. She wanted them to do things as a family as much as possible this trip. Solidifying the bond between Gustaf and the boys was crucial, and for that, they needed time together. To talk, to fight, to laugh, to just do boy things with a man that wanted to be a father to them in every way possible.

“I like that.” Brendan said eating his sandwich. “We could write activities down on bits of paper and then choose them at random?” He shrugged.

“I like that idea even better.” Gustaf grinned. “Two activities each, and that’s what we can spend the day doing, or a few hours depending on how we all feel.”

“Whatever we want?” Liam grinned.

“Whatever you want.” Gustaf knew exactly where his devious little mind was going.

“You may regret that decision later.” Sildie muttered and smirked at him over the top of her teacup.

“Quite possibly.” Gustaf snickered as he sipped his tea, the boys just grinned at him. Oh he was in so much trouble, he thought. He was expecting them to gang up on him and had to remember to wear a base layer and turtleneck, to stop the snow going down the back of his neck, because he knew that one was coming. Once he’d finished eating, Gustaf found a pens and paper and had the boys write their two activities down. They scrunched each one into a little ball and tossed it in a salad bowl Sildie had found in the cupboard.

“Ok, let me grab Lily and then we each draw two out of the bowl.” Sildie said as she went to collect Lily, the little lady starting to make a fuss. The boys were giggling when she came back in the room. “What are you up to?” She asked knowing something was afoot, the wink from Gustaf asking her to just play along.

“Alright, youngest to oldest, Finn you’re up.” Gustaf said as Sildie fixed Lily a bottle, the tiny child snuggled in close to her mum mum.

“I got, hiking.” He said and put it on the table as Gustaf wrote it down, that would be a good one for tomorrow while the weather was still nice, he thought.

“Snowboarding.” Liam said excitedly. “That was one of mine.” His grin was wide.

“Well we’ll all get to have a go now.” Gustaf chuckled.

“Build a snow family.” Brendan laughed and Sildie smirked, that was one of hers.

“You’re up love.” Gustaf said.

“No, you are. I’m older than you.” Her chuckle playful.

“Snow fort.” He said looking at her, that desire for her flooding through him.

Her hand dipped into the bowl. “Snowball fight.” She said. “Well that was a given.” She added with a snort. “Go again Finn.”

“What about Lily?” He said quietly.

“I think Lily will be happy with whatever we’re all doing love.” She said gently. “Maybe we can have a Lily safe snowball fight like we did before.” He smiled and nodded, face lighting up.

“Snowball fight.” He giggled holding it up. Liam’s hand dived in to reveal another snowball fight as did Brendan and Gustaf.

“I think I’ve been played.” She muttered with a huge smile on her face as she pulled out another snowball fight.

“A little.” Gustaf’s wink make her laugh, that laugh he adored as he wrote them down in order that they came out of the bowl. “The weather should be nice tomorrow for a hike.”

“What should we pack for lunch?” Sildie asked.

“Picnic.” Liam said bouncing in his seat. “With cookies.”

“With cookies.” Gustaf chuckled. “Can’t forget the cookies.” She loved that smile, the one that said I don’t have a care in the world except for the people in this room. He was relaxing already, the stress and anxiety starting to melt away. Those crows feet she had a weakness for out in full bloom.

“Keykey.” Lily squealed as she reached for Gustaf.

“Yes little lady, lots of cookies.” He plucked her off Sildie’s lap and kissed her until she giggled, his scruff tickling her, tiny hands tapping his face.

They spent the late afternoon settling in, just taking time to relax and unwind. Bathed and in pajamas, the twins had their heads together formulating a plan for the epic snowball fight. Brendan had curled up on the couch with a book, and Gustaf did the same in the one seat with Lily in his lap happily snuggled in chattering and playing with her toys, Gustaf reading to her quietly. Sildie had slipped away to soak in the tub, a time to unwind, to start her vacation off right. She could hear him reading and the tone of his voice soothed her. “I could listen to him talk all night.” She sighed, sinking up to her neck in hot water. There was something about his voice that always set her mind at ease and calmed the raging storm of her thoughts and emotions. This was a different tone to the one he used in the bedroom, but both equally arousing in their own way.

She cleared her mind, let all the events of the past week come to the surface, acknowledged the way they made her feel and let them go. Sent them out into the ether for the universe to take care of. It was her own form of meditation, one she’d let slide since her brother died and she needed to get back in the habit of letting shit go. As her mind cleared from all the anxiety and stress, she thought to the future, their future. About making partner and what that would mean for her, for them as a family. With Gustaf’s help she knew she’d be able to handle it, even if in the beginning it would be a learning curve. “I can do it though, with him beside me I can do it.” She knew she could do it without him, but with him would be so much easier. She would hopefully make partner and get her career back on track.

Gustaf had saved them from spiraling out of control, from drowning in grief and despair, and in turn they had saved each other. It was time to put the grief aside and live life, she decided. She couldn’t allow it to consume her as it had over the past year. This was a new year, a time for new beginnings, a time to become a family and figure out their future together. “No more wallowing in your own self pity, they’re all grieving. But it’s time to move forward.” She muttered. “There’s a life to start living, with a beautiful sweet man in it.” She smiled at that thought, her man, their family, a future together. “Mine.” She said softly. “He’s mine.” Her throat choked up with emotion. “Only mine.”

Gustaf looked around the living room. A happy Lily curled up with him playing and talking in her own way quite content, Brendan with his nose in a book, the twins formulating their attack strategy for the snowball fight. Normal, no grief in sight, and genuinely happy. Sure, he knew it was there just below the surface, but they were healing, the sorrow not as all consuming as it was when he’d rescued a few wayward oranges at their door. They would continue to grieve, he just hoped he’d made it easier for them to process and to think about a future where it didn’t rule their lives. “One step at a time huh Lily bear?” He muttered quietly. “Slow and steady.” The tiny girl snuggled into him, the affection and unconditional love she gave melting his heart.

He let his mind wander to Sildie, their future, as a family, as a couple. Marriage kept springing to the forefront of his mind. He never thought he’d contemplate marriage again after Hanna, but with Sildie it was different. He was different. Would she want to get married? Could he be the husband she deserved? He wanted it like his next breath, to give himself to her completely, commit himself to her, to the kids. He glanced at the three boys, what would they think about it, he wondered? “Maybe I’ll have to ask them.” He mumbled against Lily’s temple, kissing her softly. “I already know where you stand on the matter young lady.” He chuckled and Lily squealed a dad dad as Gustaf’s scruff tickled her cheek as he kissed the little girl.

Maybe kids of their own, he thought. He wanted kids with her, no question about it. “That’s her choice though isn’t it little lady?” He kissed Lily’s head. “Her body, her choice. And she already told me where she stood on the matter in the very beginning.” He mumbled. “It would be nice for you to have a playmate though, huh? A little Sildie to cuddle.” He grinned against the child’s hair as he imagined a child with Sildie’s copper hair and ice blue eyes. “Or a little Gustaf you can boss around.” His soft chuckle made him grin wider. “I’m such a sap.” He whispered and Lily hugged him right. “I want everything with her Lily, absolutely everything.”

“Mum mum, dad, dad, dad.” She chattered softly.

“Exactly.” He kissed her head and went back to reading, oddly feeling more relaxed about it after chatting with his pint sized shrink.

Sildie pulled herself out of the tub and dressed in her pajamas. She felt loose and relaxed, much like she’d soaked all the stress off her body and let it swirl down the drain. Her mind had finally quietened, her thoughts drifting along now instead of zooming a mile a minute like they had been.

Padding out to the living room she smiled at the scene, such serenity, it choked her up. She started to make some hot chocolate from scratch, the one she usually saved for Christmas or special occasions. To her this was a special occasion, their first vacation together, the calmness that had settled over all of them was something to be acknowledged. “Who’s up for toasting some marshmallows?” She said softly and instantly had three boys at her side, the fourth standing behind her, Lily in his arms, a hand circling her hips. “You guys will need to find some toasting forks or skewers.” She chuckled as they raced off to do exactly that as Gustaf kissed the nape of her neck.

“You smell nice.” He purred, tongue teasing the dip at her collarbone.

“I’m all warm and soft too.” She murmured, her hand reaching back to rest against his thigh pulling him closer, the nuzzle against her neck making her weak at the knees. Her man knew exactly how to turn her entire system to goo.

The boys bounded back in, Brendan holding up some toasting forks he’d found in the mud room closet, those grins wide. It had been a long time since she’d seen them this happy, saw those smiles bloom in genuine joy not just putting on a brave face.

“Lily and I will stoke the fire, we need embers to toast marshmallows properly.” He kissed her quickly before heading over to the open fireplace.

Once the fire was happily crackling in the hearth they all sat around it as if it were an outdoor campfire. The six of them in pj’s or sweats, hot chocolate with an abundance of cream and marshmallow, and giggles, lots of giggles as they talked about snow forts and snowball fights. Gustaf telling stories of his childhood and the mischief him and his brothers got up to.

“Don’t give them ideas.” Sildie scolded, and he grinned at her. A boys childhood was nothing without mischief.

Sildie reminisced about her and Quinn as kids with their parents, much happier times, and good memories for the boys to have. She found it didn’t destroy her as much, sure it still gave her that ache in the chest, that longing to have them here, but she didn’t spiral. That’s what she needed to hold onto, those good happy memories, and she need to share them with the boys, with Gustaf. This was the way she needed to help them heal.

As the fire died down to embers they toasted their marshmallows.

“Nothing like the crispy outside, and a gooey inside.” Gustaf said as he blew on a little bit of marshmallow for Lily to taste. They’d all be on a sugar high for the next little while which was fine, they were on vacation, the everyday rules didn’t apply. He kicked back, Lily clinging to him as he read Harry while they finished the marshmallows and had another round of hot chocolate.

At nearly ten, Lily was asleep in Gustaf’s arms, and the twins were almost asleep curled up with Sildie as they listened to the story. “Time for bed I think.” Gustaf said gently as he watched Finn stifle another yawn at the end of the chapter.

“I think so too. Hiking tomorrow and a picnic.” She stood and helped the boys to their feet following them to the rooms they’d chosen to sleep in. Finn broke away from Sildie and rushed back to hug Gustaf tightly, Lily barely stirred.

“Love you dad.” He said quietly and Gustaf felt his throat tighten, it sucker punched him every time.

“Love you too. Get some sleep.” He watched Finn go and let out a careful breath. “I doubt I’m ever going to get used to hearing that.” He muttered to Lily as he got to his feet and carried her to bed.

With the boys settled and Gustaf dealing with Lily, Sildie set her phone to play some slow jazz in their room as she stared out the window into the night. This was the peace she craved for them and hoped one day soon they’d feel it in their own home. She heard him close the door, his soft steps to her before those arms wrapped her up, his scent equally comforting. Turning she swayed, his hands fitting her against him just right.

“I love dancing with you.” He said softly. “It was like we were made for it, you fit just right.” He kissed her temple and lingered, her scent filling his mind. Home, love, peace.

“I love it too. Just this, nothing fancy, just you and me and some good music. It’s perfect.” She said softly and rested her head against his shoulder, her thoughts drifting nowhere in particular.

“The only thing that would make it better would to be naked.” He said a while later, the soft growl making her chuckle.

“Then you’d better take care of that then.” She teased.

Gentle fingers aroused as they peeled the sweats and pajamas from each other. Both naked, he danced her around the room, slow and soothing until she was almost asleep on her feet.

“Into bed love.” He said tenderly and kissed her brow before helping her in. She snuggled in and kissed him, love and need pouring from her. Rolling, he pressed her into the mattress, the feel of those lush curves against him making him harden. “I can never get enough of you.” He murmured. “My goddess.” Her legs wrapped around his slim hips and she drew him closer, an invitation to slip inside. To claim each other. With a gentle thrust he buried himself to his hilt in her wet heat their mutual groans mixing with the jazz.

Her hands roamed that well honed body, all the dips and valleys that made him irresistible as his hips flexed, cock filling her. He made love to her, the gentle push and pull as their bodies intertwined and danced together. She came with a soft sigh, her release rolling over her taking the last of the stress from her body. He joined her in pleasure a moment later when he came with her name on his lips. Curling her in to him, she went lax in his arms. “Sleep love.” His smile wide.

“Gustaf?” She mumbled, hovering on the edge of sleep.

“Mmmm?”

“I’m so in love with you.” She slurred.

“You’re my everything Sildie, sleep now.” He switched the music off and let the silence of the cabin soothe him to sleep, peace at long last.

merry xmas, here’s more jellicle headcanons

just getting some out there while I still have them in my head. tried to make them flow as smoothly as I could.

for part one, please visit this link

Bustopher Jones is a huge “philanthropist,” which is why he’s so well respected amongst London’s cat community. Whatever food that isn’t for himself or his own kittens he redistributes amongst the strays of the Jellicle tribe.

He’s the father of the Rumpus Cat, Alonzo, Quaxo/Mistoffelees, and Victoria. Their mother passed away not long after Victoria was born.

He and Jennyanydots had a fling when they were a bit younger, but have since gone separate ways (she paired with Old Deuteronomy after Grizabella left). They remain good friends, though.

Bustopher and Victoria both have what is commonly referred to in the community as “charmagicks.” This is how Bustopher so easily manages to get any scrap of food he asks for, despite his weight (or the fact that the humans never fuss whenever he squeezes himself into places that are uncommon for a cat to be, like the gentleman’s club).

Victoria’s “charmagicks” manifest mostly through dance. This can be most easily seen in the....er...infamous “cat pile” scene of the play.

(The Rum Tum Tugger also has this same ability, albeit manifesting mostly through his singing ability, and he and Tori bond through their shared power.)

The Rumpus Cat’s “civilian” name is Heracles. He’s the eldest sibling.

Alonzo is the only cat in his family who can’t use any sort of magic (no big reason, just got the short end of the stick in terms of genes). A lot of his insecurities stem from this. He enthusiastically took the job as Munkustrap’s right-hand cat as a means to prove his usefulness despite this lack of ability.

Cassandra is one hell of a brawler, though she prefers not to engage in it much (it’s most unbecoming!). She taught Alonzo to fight in secret, which is how they became friends.

She’d never admit it out loud, but Cassandra might have...the teeniest little crush on Alonzo. She never acts on it though, and reaps the consequences when Munkustrap beats her to the punch.

Alonzo, Munkustrap, and Demeter are in a happy polyamorous relationship. Alonzo is like a second father to Jemima, and loves her very much.

Cassandra and Bombalurina were rivals, constantly trying to outshine each other in who could break the most hearts in the tribe.

Bombalurina and Tugger met when they were kittens. She had been recently abandoned by her previous owners and left out on the streets, cold and hungry, and he rescued her by bringing her into the tribe. They grew up together, and have been close friends ever since.

She’s had a huge crush on him, and makes no attempt to hide it, but Tugger constantly has to turn her down. Once she realizes that he’s in love with Mr. Mistoffelees, she reluctantly backs down, wishing them the best.

Meanwhile she’d been slowly falling in love (like, For Real, this time) with Demeter as they grew ever closer (Bombi was the first Jellicle who ever found out about Demeter’s past), but had to get her heart broken a second time when Demeter decided to be with Munk and Alonzo.

She did, however, find an unlikely companionship in her former rival Cassandra, with whom she could relate to in terms of...getting scorned by the love of their life in favor of Munkustrap.

One time Cassandra and Bombi got dumb wasted on cat nip together while wallowing in their misery and helplessly hissed and whined at Munkustrap as they passed him on the street about “being a selfish bastard and stealing all the good ones for himself.” 

Munkustrap, completely dumbfounded, couldn’t think of much else to do but to offer them some treats he’d been hoarding and to escort them safely home.

This form of apology was quickly accepted by the two queens, who would later never speak of this little moment of theirs ever again.

...Also, they’re girlfriends now.

Since they’re both great fighters, Cassandra and Demeter meet up for a secret sparring match once a month. They gain a mutual respect for each other with each meetup.

Cassandra is the second after Bombalurina to find out that Demeter was Macavity’s former top assassin and lover before she’d joined their tribe (and that Jemima is biologically Macavity’s kitten). 

She respectfully keeps these secrets, despite her former love-related envy, and set up their sparring matches as a means to help Demeter let out any pent-up stress or anxiety. They’re best friends now.

Foster Dog Hamilton AU-Character Descriptions

((I combined all your submissions into one to save space cause I’m kinda OCD like that, okay X3))

Burr Breed: Black Lab Appearance: Um…a black lab,lol. Dark brown eyes. Breed Info: To be honest, this is just what I’ve always imagined Burr to look like as a dog. While Labs are usually very hyper, many can have a calm disposition as well. They are very friendly and charming to lots of people, as well as intelligent. Background: Burr was born to a breeding pair of Black Labs that were owned by an official breeder. He was adopted by a man at a little younger than two months. He was very hyper and playful, which amused his master at first, but as he grew bigger the man grew tired of the constant barking, and began yelling at Burr when he began to get loud, even kicking him at some points. Burr soon grew afraid to bark or make much of any noise. If he even moved around the house too much his master would get angry. He trembled at any raised voice, even at voices raised in excitement. His life soon became both monotonous and stressful at the same time. A personal motto he ended up developing was “Bark less,Wag more”. At a little under a year old, his owner finally grew tired of having him around and tied him up outside the animal shelter one night. When the employees found him they took him in right away. The attempts to adopt him out were unsuccessful, as due to his anxiety he would never play with anyone who came to look at him or interact with them much at all. Plus,he would show great fear at raised voices and barking, as if he would be punished for other dogs barking. The shelter employees decided to ask the Washingtons if they could take him. Perhaps they could help him to be a normal dog again. 

Laurens Breed: Beagle/Retriever mix Appearance: Slightly taller Beagle body, golden brown color with a white chest,fluffy floppy ears, light brown eyes. Scar on his tail. Breed Info: Beagles are friendly social dogs. They usually get along well with others. They do tend to howl and bark when left alone though due to separation anxiety. They also love to track scents,though they must be watched carefully because this can cause them to wander and get lost. Beagles owners have to work hard to train these dogs to listen, as they sometimes their pets will ignore their directions, especially when tracking a scent. Beagles are also one of the most popular breeds in South Carolina. Background: Laurens was born to a beagle father and retriever mother in a small family home. His other siblings were sold but he was kept by the original family. They had a hard time teaching him not to howl and wander off. Eventually he ended up wandering so far that he became lost. After days of trying to find his way back, he finally made it,but his father,who never really liked having the puppies around and still didn’t care for Laurens himself,chased him away before the family saw him,giving him a good bite on the tail. He was picked up by a shelter a few days later. The Washingtons were still new to this foster care thing, so they decided to try and foster him, so he was sent to Virginia to be their second foster.

Lafayette Breed: Picardy Spaniel Appearance: Just as a Picardy Spaniel looks, brown eyes Breed Info: The Picardy Spaniel originated in France as a gun dog. Today it’s nature is active,affectionate, and alert. They are great family dogs and are content to stay by their family’s side. Due to their alertness,they are excellent watchdogs and will sound the alarm if something is amiss. They are easy to train from a young age. They do best with a positive and consistent leadership. They are great with children. Background: Lafayette was born in France and purchased by an older couple living in France. After a few months, their schedule would not allow them to give as much time to him as he needed. Rather than just send him to anybody, the couple asked their friends the Washingtons to take care of him back in America. Lafayette was flown to them some time later, and has been with them since. It was soon after that the Washingtons decided to foster some more animals.

Hercules Breed: Pitbull/Rottweiler mix Appearance: Rottweiler style body, a bit leaner however. Brown brindle coloring. Brown eyes. Breed Info: Both Pitbulls and Rottweilers have a bad reputation due to many being used in dog fights. Both breeds are affectionate and protective towards people. They make good guard dogs and are both active and intelligent. Rottweilers are very alert and aware of their surroundings. They are levelheaded and calm. Pitbulls can be fearless,yet stubborn. Both breeds were used to drive livestock in the past. Background: Hercules was born into a dog fighting organization, but at a few months old he was rescued in a police raid. Despite being rescued as a pup, nobody wanted to take him, especially as he looked more and more intimidating as he grew older. At a couple years old, the staff was thinking he would never be taken by anyone,until the Washingtons took him in. He was the third dog that they fostered and kept,after Lafayette and Laurens. Unfortunately for Hercules, he is often feared by people who can’t see past his breed and history, but he is one of the sweetest dogs.

Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy Breed: Golden Retriever Appearance: Angelica: Darker gold wavy coat Eliza:Straight gold coat Peggy: Light cream coat Breed Info: Golden Retrievers are even-tempered, intelligent and affectionate. They were bred to retrieve game for their masters. They enjoy being in water and are very easy to train. They can be trained for many different things. They enjoy being around other dogs as well Background: These three sisters were born in the same litter and are inseparable. They were adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Schuyler at a few months old and have been there ever since. Angelica enjoys going duck hunting with Mr. Schuyler, Eliza gets spooked by the gunshots however, and Peggy is a little too hyper to stay quiet, so they stay home with Mrs. Schuyler. They live nearby the Washingtons’ home, and their owners have been friends with them for years,so they often go over to their home,as it is large enough for many dogs. Eliza is so calm and gentle and Peggy is so friendly that Mrs. Schuyler volunteers them as therapy dogs for children in schools and hospitals. 

(Just a little note that I forgot to add in my submissions. I made Jefferson and Madison cats because I thought it would fit them better in this AU. I may send in an alternate description where they are dogs, but for me, I headcanon them as cats. Plus, it sounds less overwhelming when you say someone is caring for five dogs and two cats rather than seven dogs.)

Jefferson Breed: Ragamuffin Cat Appearance: Brown tabby,long-haired, light blue eyes. Magenta collar Breed Info: Ragamuffins are large and long. Their fur is long, soft, and silky. It needs to be brushed daily to keep all the tangles out of the coat. They usually have a docile nature and love to be held or lay on laps. They crave attention and can become clingy. Background: Jefferson belonged to a wealthy elderly lady. He was very spoiled from the moment she bought him. The best quality,most expensive wet cat food,groomed every day and night, and the softest bed. It all ended when she passed away when he was older. After a little while, some people dropped him off at the animal shelter. He mourned his poor owner as he sat in the kennel he had been placed in. He turned up his nose at the food they offered him, he barely knew how to groom himself, and what was this bed!?. He became grumpy and unwilling to let anyone interact with him. The shelter decided to ask the Washingtons if they would be willing to foster him, as they have been pretty successful with animals. They agree, and the next day he was sent off to them.

Madison Breed: American Shorthair Cat Appearance: Small, stocky grey cat, amber eyes Breed Info: American Shorthair’s have broad chests and a muscular neck. They are placid and easy going. While they’re fine with attention, they don’t need it constantly. They can entertain themselves easily. Their coat is thick and dense, so they need some brushing, especially in the colder months when it gets thicker. Background: Madison was born in a kitten mill. He was sickly soon after birth and developed a cough. It’s a wonder he survived. Police shut down the kitten mill when he was six months old and brought as many cats as possible to be evaluated and treated. Madison was there for a few months to regain his strength. It was discovered that his cough could be controlled with medication. It wasn’t contagious but he would always have it for the rest of his life. Not many people want sickly cats,so the shelter asked the Washingtons if they could continuously foster him if the shelter provided the medication. They agreed and took him soon after that.

Cat tips #1 Aches and pains

OK I was going to do a masterpost of cat advice I learned from doing rescue. But life happened and I really don't have the focus to remember to sit down and type it all into one post. So you're going to get a series from me as I remember to do it. Which is usually sparked by my own need to figure out a problem for the cats I have now.

Tonights topics are aches and pains. Though probably not what you're going to expect.

For aches - if you have a kitty who is already diagnosed with chronic arthritis or ongoing joint pain, your best bet is a Sunbeam Express Heat heating pad. I say this brand and style for the simple reason it's currently one of a select few that don't force you into a 2 hour timer. This is great for pet owners who need to be able to let their pet lounge on the warmth while they're at work.

Fruit is a senior now and she's always cold. She's always loved 'stealing my heating pad when I wasn't using it, so she could warm up.

I keep mine on either 3 in summer or 6 in winter. If she's cold and I'm not home, she'll go lay on the heating pad. She's not arthritic, just thinner coated than fluff, but she's more energetic when she's warmer. So I keep the heating pad on for her.

The one I mentioned is $40 but it's a drug free alternative to glucosamine supplements that cats aren't always willing to ingest. And like people, heat can help keep inflammation of joints at bay.

The best part is if you have a cat who is prone to puking on the nice things, or who has trouble with urinary accidents, the pad portion of the heating pad is washable in your washing machine. *follow package directions for washing and drying*

For the pains portion of this post I'm talking about every cat owner's least favorite thing... The cat box. If you have a cat that's been having issues with litter box avoidance and nothing you've tried, worked, I have a suggestion or two.

If you use clumping litter try switching to an unscented litter that's softer than clay litter, something like "yesterday's news" which is recycled newsprint, "swheat scoop" which is wheat based, or any other clay alternative that's unscented or low in odor.

If you have tried those and they're not working for you, I do have another suggestion.

Both fruit and floof have separation anxiety with me working 10hrs and 6-7 days a week when I used to be home 24/7 when they were kittens.

Because one of their symptoms of the separation anxiety was litter box avoidance, I started looking for alternative options to the chore (pain) of daily laundry from them using everything but the box.

I give you this:

Precious Cat Cat Attract Problem Cat Training Litter, 40 pound bag

It's $27 for a 40# bag or something like $15 for a 15# box. (This is vary similar to the price I can find either size at my local pet supply place.) But because of my work hours, getting to the store wasn't feasible, but having amazon bring me a bag was.

It says training litter. It's not terribly more than the tidy cat I'd been using. But it's unscented. It doesn't smell like glade air freshener or febreze or whatever most litter manufacturers think cats want to sniff while taking a shit. Even though it's unscented, this stuff controls odor better than any litter I've used. And they actually use the box. Even while I was gone for 10 days and it didn't get scooped, they still used it. So I can say that yes it works as advertised. The only downside is that it's not really a low dust litter. But it's no more dusty than the majority of clumping litter on the market. I just have to dust off my legs after filling the box. It clumps well if you get to it within 3-5 days. After that it can turn clumps into sandy mush, but it's still worth every penny and I don't have to drug the cats (pill them) to achieve litter box usage and a lower anxiety level.

Can you talk a little more about aggression rooted in.. what was it you said, anxiety/related issues in cats? I’m curious about it and cat behavior in general. Even if you could toss out some more specific things to google! Im about to scroll your blog for a bit so if you’ve already elaborated on this, please feel free to ignore my ask :)

Sure!  I’ll talk about anxiety-based aggression and fear-based aggression today! 

Snowflake is like… the QUINTESSENTIAL anxiety-aggressive cat.  She’s a cat who would purr, rub against any furniture in her room, and even approach people before ‘suddenly’ swatting at any attempts to pet her and dart away.  It would have been easy to mistake her behavior for aggression.  In her particular case, all of the purring and rubbing was ACTUALLY an attempt to tell me, ‘I’m feeling insecure and want to mark my smell around as much as I can, please do not disturb me’ and any attempts to pet her were considered Extremely Rude in Cat. 

It can be really hard to tell the difference between ‘i am a calm and confident cat who JUST HAPPENS to be marking my stuff’ and ‘I’m a frightened cat trying to reclaim some sense of stability, so I’m desperately marking everything’.  Eye contact is a big clue.  Snowflake would make hard eye contact with no blinking, but a confident cat will make long, slow blinks.

Her anxiety was successfully handled by giving her plenty of spaces that are Cat Only (so she could easily remove herself from unwanted human attention) and with gentle socialization.  She is now very happily adopted and treasured.

A good example of fear-based aggression would be ‘Eleanor’, a declawed bengal cross we fostered.  She was adopted into a home with a dog (an elderly greyhound who liked cats and would generally attempt to snooze nearby them) and it didn’t go well.  Eleanor would actively seek out and attack the dog.

“Wow, what an asshole cat!” is the easy answer, isn’t it?

But let’s delve more into her history. 

Eleanor was declawed at 4 weeks old, which is about the time when kittens begin playfighting with each other and their mother in earnest.  They also actively seek out and playfight with humans at this age.  It’s an exploratory age where they begin to learn claw inhibition and how to properly use paws.  I suspect she was declawed as soon as she drew blood (which, again, is a VERY normal kitten thing).  Without this important communication tool, she was helpless and turned to biting.  She was surrendered to the rescue once she started biting.

It’s easy to see why a cat, who had already experienced a serious upset in her life, would behave aggressively towards a Large and Scary Animal who liked to be by her.  She just wanted to scare the dog away from Her Space.

The people who adopted her decided NOT to work on her dog issues and returned her to the rescue (this is a fair decision).  Her anxiety flared up BIG time and she started behaving aggressively towards staff.  She was put on some anti-anxiety meds and slowly calmed down.

She was re-adopted into a home, this time without a dog.  I firmly believe that she wouldn’t have had most of her issues if she hadn’t been declawed as a kitten.

It can be REALLY difficult to separate anxiety-based aggression and fear-based aggression, but it’s really important to try and differentiate them.  Some medications will NOT have an affect on fear-based aggression, so it’s important to have the cat evaluated in person by a veterinary behaviorist.  In these cases, I used self-soothing behaviors as the deciding factor in what was fear-based (Eleanor) and what was anxiety-based (Snowflake).  Snowflake frequently attempted to soothe her anxieties by rubbing against items and actively tried to tell observers that she was uncomfortable, while Eleanor just wanted to go and fuck shit up. Both cats were technically scared, but their fears were rooted in different mechanisms and reasons.

For that crayola thing. Kitten Gray and Grasshopper Green

Kitten Gray: Do you have any pets? If so, describe them.

I do have pets, I have a Dog named Chori who is probably the biggest sook ever. She has severe separation anxiety from my mother so whenever my mother is out of her sight, she howls and cries. She once burst into my room and was hysterical because my mum didn’t tell her she was outside hanging clothes out. It’s a whole thing with my dog. Honestly.

I have a rabbit named Rascal. We found him in our front yard and he was the smallest little thing. I was on my way to work when my mum called for me to come out and rescue him as he was drenched. He was obviously someone's pet but we couldn’t find his owner and yeah, we have had him ever since. He is the size of a large cat now so..... yeah. He also decided to eat a soccer ball so yeah... That’s Rascal.

And i have 5 birds. I did have 6 but my little angel babycakes ‘Shithead” passed away so now we have birds 1 -5 (my father refuses to name them so when they are being brats, he can blame them all) They are 2 budgies, one ringneck parrot and 2 cockatiels that like to play hide and seek.

Grasshopper Green: Describe the area where you live.

I live in the suburbs of Western Sydney and I absolutely love it. I live in a quiet area but I can travel 30 minutes in any direction and be in a bustling mini city or travel for a full hour and be in the Sydney CBD. I love Sydney. I am very much a Sydney Girl.

On July 9th 2018 we welcomed a little angel into our lives. Azazel was dumped (during a drive by) on the road next to my parents farm - which the road is a posted 60, people normally go a bit faster so he is lucky to be alive, he is also very lucky there was a very weedy ditch to break his fall. As you can see his nose/ mouth took quite a hit, he has healed very well but will permanently be disfigured ( I think it makes him extra special 💗) my parents found him wandering on the farm, no other kittens were found with him so To my belief I think that being all black (he’s actually spotted like a panther in the light, currently working on photographing that) and it being so close to Friday the 13th that is why he was dumped and left for dead. I honestly choke up with the thought he is a literal angel, just a little lover and has made mine, my sons and most importantly Iris’ life so much more fulfilled and enriched since entering. The first gif of them snuggling was within HOURS of meeting 💗 with being a server and a single mom with no child support I tend to work a lot especially when my son is with his father, iris gets very lonely and when I get home it can be stressful because I’ll want alone time to decompress but iris will be so excited to see someone she knows she can’t leave me alone ( which I completely understand after a weekend of seclusion, still difficult for me because after having to be so extroverted for my job I won’t want to be touched I’ll be so drained - it was just extremely difficult for both of us) We were going through a rough patch for awhile due to her stress and seclusion, before we moved into the place we have been living I also had her sister from when I had rescued them both off of a farm but I was told by my landlord (that doesn’t like me very much tbh) unless my doctor signed for two support animals I could only have one. So I was forced to find a new home for Luna (her sister) unfortunately since then iris has been struggling with anxiety, seclusion, aggressive behavior to those she doesn’t count as family (my son and I) and an overall decline in quality of life. Before hand iris had been friendly and nice to everyone (of course she’s imprinted on me since she was a kitten so I was always her fav but she at least could find comfort and attention with someone else if need be) It put more pressure on me with her clingy-ness and behavior that would make it hard to have guests or family even visit and knowing how hard it was on her how stressful it was for the guest and I , wishing I could make it better etc. I was feeling very guilty and heartbroken. Recently ( about 6-7 months ago) my sister moved into the same town homes as us and I visited, only to be surprised by not one but TWO cats In her home. To which of course I interrogated her about. Asking if her doctor signed for two how our landlord let her move in with two cats etc!! She said her doctor signed the same form as I and the landlord not only knew but was perfectly cool with her having two cats 🤬 I remember I immediately started bawling, I honestly didn’t believe my heart could hurt worse at that point but when she said all that I couldn’t believe I had to rehome my cat I literally count as one of my children, my cats sister, and put iris Luna and I through all of this (Luna is doing great in her new home and is very loved but being separated from your birth sister isn’t easy especially when they were together from birth until they were a year) I honestly was so angry that iris had been struggling so much since losing her sister and for what!! All because my land lord wanted to be an ass apparently. She is my baby and I’m heartbroken that because someone wanted to be cruel she had to suffer while I watched. So since learning of my landlords petty behavior I was contemplating getting a new cat but was nervous (very strict rules here and I don’t want to risk being kicked out) and I felt very guilty because I had a cat for iris originally so I thought about requesting the family to give back Luna but didn’t want to do that to them both again plus now there’s another family involved that loves her dearly. Thought about bringing home some random cat I could find or adopt but I was honestly terrified iris would lash out or fall deeper into depression or maybe they wouldn’t ever get along I’d have to rehome another cat, fuck🤦🏻‍♀️ I knew something needed to happen I just wasn’t sure what how or when. Fast forward to July and my mom visits and tells me about this little black cat they found, says he’s in rough shape but a trooper, jokingly asks if I want a cat. I laughed it off, she says I should come visit and see him because my son and him absolutely love each other and she thinks it’s good for the kitten! I say of course, maybe soon when I have a day off or whatever. A few days later my son and I planned on going swimming to get out of the house ( I was feeling drained and hopeless between the stress of keeping up with my crazy work schedule, cleaning, being there for iris, being a mother, and my personal life beyond that!) and my mom who stopped by to drop some things off, invites us to come out and hang- she said she’d even bring out the sprinkler! So we head out and immediately first thing my son does is run out to the barn the kitten was in ( had to be secluded from the other cats so as to not cause a fight or him be run off by the other cats) so my mom goes in and comes out with this wriggling ball of black fur, hands him straight to me in baby pose. It was love at first sight, he crawled up to my shoulder and snuggled into my neck and it was a wrap. I knew from that moment I wanted to bring him home, especially after watching him and my son together. My mom and I talked a little more about it and how I was nervous it wouldn’t work for iris so we decided just to give it a try if anything he could come back to the farm and shed figure something else out. So, my mother showed up on July 9th at my home with this tiny kitten hidden in her crossbody purse. I had done some reading and was going to keep iris and Azazel separate for the time being until they were more comfortable, but iris came right up to my moms purse sniffing and Azazel popped his head out and they were cautiously sniffing each other ( it was actually really hilarious because after one sniff and Azazel poped his head out iris sat back and looked at me with this exact face —-> 😦 like “what have you done mom”. So I pulled him out and let him explore a little bit (iris was right behind- as was I 😂) after about an hour he was getting sleepy and iris was uncertain yet but they were doing fine so I sat down on the couch with the spray bottle. Azazel jumped up to snuggle and iris cautiously creeped forward because she wanted to snuggle too, spur of the moment thing as soon as it popped in my head, I picked Azazel up and sat him right next to her. They snuggled up and I knew right then it was perfect. She started grooming him and they were both purring and I took out my phone to take a video and she looks at the camera and then at me and I could just see in her eyes that I had given her exactly what she needed 😭 I started crying immediately. My heart has been so full, watching these two bond. Iris had forgotten how to play( I tried to play with her whenever I could but she never got into it like she used to with Luna her sister) so the first day or so she just awkwardly would stand there while Azazel tried to get her to play, she actually hissed a couple of times, but within a few days they were lightly running and wrestling. Currently they sprint through the house parkour off the walls and I think iris jumped about 4.5 feet off the air last night 😂 to see the life brought back into iris has been the best thing to happen during my birthday month, I’ve honestly not been this happy in such a long time, my heart does a big squeezey thing that makes my chest puff up and my eyes water every time I even think about it. My smile has gotten wider, my heart lighter. Iris has actully done really well in social situations with guests!!! If she’s feeling overwhelmed she takes herself out of the situation, she has let random people scratch her head after sniffing and no intervention from me- she didn’t even hiss!! God she’s doing so fucking well!!! We’re taking it slow but god damn I am so thankful for this little angel. - side note, I knew I wanted to name him something special and I was wracking my brain trying to come up with one asking for help from followers, and then I was going through names of my all time fav show ( SUPERNATURAL FUCKING DUH!!!) and I remembered how pretty of a name I thought Azazel was, I said it out loud and he looked at me and I was like, yup that’s gotta be it. Ended up looking it up later when someone asked about it and cried because Azazel in some Judaism Christianity and Islam it literally means “fallen angel” 😭 which he most definitely is. He’s my perfect little guy, anyways I just wanted to introduce our new baby to y’all 💞 we are all doing phenomenal 💗💗💗
