WAIT PEOPLE ENJOY QSMP AGERE CONTENT??

bro if i had known... IF I HAD KNOWN..... anyway hey hi have some q!cellbit regression headcanons :) what do you mean it's obvious i've thought about this excessively nuh uh no way i would never (lie.)

➤ what is age regression?

★ cellbit has no idea that he regresses. he just thinks its him being overly tired and stressed and maybe he just needs a nap? and - uh, is bad okay? why is he looking at him so oddly?

★ when he's regressed, cellbit behaves uncannily like his younger self - minus the violence. naturally, as a result, bad picks up on it before anyone else, and can't help but baby cellbit. just a little bit. pulling him on a few adventures, teasingly offering to carry cellbit around when he complains that he's tired, walking him home afterwards - you know, little things!

including a cheerful "good work today, cellbit!" as bad rubs his head, and cellbit bunts into it with a happy prrp! and then immediately pauses in disbelief at himself while bad giggles fondly, reminded of simpler times.

★ bad has to tell roier what cellbit's regression is, but once he understands it, roier introduces it playfully. teasing pet names, "let me do this for you, gatinho <3" lovingly, until cellbit finds himself comfortably allowing roier to do things for him and fussing over him and showering him in affection whenever he feels soft and tired and like his body is too big for him.

★ typically, cellbit is a sleepy regressor. sometimes he gets playful, rowdy, wanting to do something fun, but he's easily distracted with card games or being encouraged to work on his ttrpg.

★ roier likes calling him "gatito" when he's regressed. "little kitty." cellbit thinks its embarrassing and gets flustered over it. (he likes it)

★ pac and mike are familiar with regression, but didn't realize that cellbit does it at first. but once pac realizes, he begs mike to give it a try, just trust him on this, and suddenly they're dragging cellbit on adventures around their factory, and at some point ;

★ pac realizes that cellbit will chase laser pointers directly into walls with a startled meow when regressed, and laughs himself into tears of delight about it while cellbit gives him a sad, confused look, rubbing his now-sore head from where he slammed into the wall.

★ "cebe, you can't drink coffee all day! especially not when you're little!" "but guapito... :(" complete with the biggest saddest wettest puppy eyes a catboy could possibly muster. roier is a strong, strong man for forcing cellbit to drink water instead.

★ chews on his clothes. on his hands. on his mug. on his pencils. he'd probably chew on his shield if he could. dear lord someone get this little one a very very durable teething toy. he needs it.

★ oh you pick him up?? you pick him up??? sleepy!! sleepy cat be upon ye!! (falls asleep almost instantly upon being scooped up into someone's arms. always. without fail. every time.)

★ will laugh himself to incoherence playfighting with anyone who lets him. his favorite to playfight with is bad, who is strong enough and tall enough (and familiar enough with him) that he can get flung around like a ragdoll but never get hurt. he finds it delightful.

★ clingy clingy kitty. constantly hanging off roier's arm or wearing his clothes or carrying something that reminds himself of his husband. would carry richas around the whole day if he could. clings to bad's cloak and follows him like a personal shadow. scrambles excitedly to follow after pac and mike when they leave to go somewhere.

★ messes up his and roier's bed to make a big nest at the end of the day so he can roll around and make the bed and blankets smell like him, before grabbing roier and dragging him into the nest for snuggles, purring so loud he can't hear his own thoughts, and dozing off draped over his husband's chest.

10. Do you read fanfiction? If so, what are your faves? 📖

yes i do read star trek fanfic! i also write it!

Here is the link to my collection of star trek fics. They're all reader inserts, very fluffy, lots of gratuitous cuddling, and they can be read as platonic or romantic depending on your preference! I love reader inserts but im aroace, so often they can make me a little uncomfortable if they're too romantic or include sexual themes, so i started writing my own for other people who feel the same way :]

as for my favourites that other people have written:

This fic is a super cute, super fluffy, old married spirk fic. Jim goes away for a work trip and Spock ends up missing him more than he expected

This is a cool exploration of what pon farr would be like for an asexual vulcan! its very sweet and a little silly.

This one was written by my mutual @spirk-trek! though i didnt know that when i first read it. its one of my favourites that i come back to a lot. Spock cuts Jim's hair and its very domestic and comforting, and it also features some excellent descriptions of what mind melding feels like

And just one more, for luck. This one is a crack fic about Spock chasing a laser pointer. You know, like a cat. Absolutely hilarious and a super fun read

[anoant-haikyuu-dump]

hi bb!! i love your nekoma headcanons, you capture them so well :) also thank you for enlightening me about fukatora truly. i was wondering what would happen if nekoma got a team pet. i KNOW chaos would ensue

Aaaa thank you so much!! I mainy made this sideblog to ramble about them so im super glad someone enjoys the text posts!! :D

Team pet is a fantastic prompt oh my god, you just know Lev walks into practice one day with a stray cat in his arms and it never leaves. At first Yaku's against it ("Why would you bring that inside, it could have rabies!") but all it takes is it rubbing against his leg and purring for Yaku to be converted into a full-blown cat mom. From then on he's the one bringing toys and treats and baby talking. Kuroo makes fun of him all the time and Yaku denies it but he doesn't stop.

Kuroo's canonically a dog person but he doesn't mind the cat, I think he's the type to talk to it like its a human and have (one-sided) conversations. When the team points this out he's like "Well at least he listens to me, unlike the rest of you". He also likes to ruffle the fur on it's head, reminds him of Kenma.

Kai brings a little bed for the cat and is the one to clear out a corner of the club room for it's stuff. If Yaku is the cat mom Kai is the cat dad. Everyone's always adding stuff to the cat nook, he's a spoiled little guy

Tora tries to teach the cat tricks as if it's a dog. He's really bad at it, he just commands it to do stuff as if yelling louder will make it suddenly understand english. Kenma tries to tell him to quit it but Fukunaga stops him— "I want to see where this goes." It ends with Tora rolling around on the floor like a moron while the cat just sits there watching. Who's training who? It's a mystery.

Inuoka chases the cat around, he's always the one to get it rilled up. He's been scratched the most times (along with Lev) but he hasn't given up hope, THEY WILL BE BEST FRIENDS. The cat can sense that he's the dog of the team

Teshiro's often found mid-staring competition with the cat, not intentionally they just get locked into it. They have a silent respect for each other

Despite being the one to bring it in the first place the cat has a love-hate relationship with Lev. He's not exactly delicate and always ends up scaring it or petting too hard. When school closes for holidays he's the one to take it home

According to promotional art cats love Fukunaga, and this is no expection. He brings laser pointers to play with before practice, his favorite thing to do it point it at Tora while his back is turned and watch the chaos ensue. The laser pointer also works on Inuoka.

Kenma and the cat take naps together, it's often found curled up on his lap or stomach during breaks. Very cute, the team has taken a lot of pictures

Petting the cat is Shibayama's stress relief after practice matches, especially once the 3rd years graduate and he's the main libero. He does this before games to get in the right headspace too, it's become a routine.

The cat is basically team mascot and it's in all their group photos. Their not allowed to bring it on the bus but whenever another school comes for a practice match they're sure to show him off.

Ok thats all woo pets!!

does kittykin keep any of his mannerisms when he becomes human again? a trill when he sees ahsoka, or some other noise on repeat until obi-wan puts down his work and pets him for an hour?

Hi anon! 👋 Thanks so much for this question about the hugs and sharing a bed ficlet I wrote for Obikin Promptober 2024!

LOL I like to think that Anakin keeps some of his cat behaviors after he's turned back into a human.

Even before he was a cat, he would make a displeased grunty noise whenever he was hangry, so that doesn't change.

Maybe he and Ahsoka both make a little trill when they see each other, like a special greeting just for them.

Maybe they're on a mission to a heavily wooded planet and Anakin disappears, only to be found on tree branch, crouched in a pounce position as he's stalking a bird. Ahsoka figures out that the only way to get him down is to have Artoo flash a red laser pointer, and suddenly Anakin's running in circles chasing after a red dot.

He insists on sleeping next to Obi-Wan every night and takes up 85% of the surface area on the bed (but I'm willing to bet this is an Anakin thing and not entirely a cat thing).

He hisses at spiders and crawly bugs (this also might have been true before he was a cat).

He scratches at the door when Obi-Wan's in the fresher. Demands to be let in.

He purrs when Obi-Wan pets his hair.

And when he's not listening or having murdery thoughts, Obi-Wan grabs the handful of curls at the back of his head to scruff him and gives him a firm tug.

"No, bad Anakin. No."

It never fails to make Anakin blush.

what are your favourite spider species and why?

less singular species and more entire families because there are too many cool spiders in this world!

jumping spiders because they look like this: °○○°. just a liddol creature. also they're like if a cat was a spider, they even chase laser pointers! absolute babies. also they make the best mimics. there's so many different species ant mimic jumping spiders and they can 100% fool me as well. completely flawless at it. it's fascinating.

tarantulas: oooh BIG boy. even back when i was more freaked out by spiders i loved tarantulas a lot, because paradoxically they are just. too big to be afraid of. for me. they're the size of a mouse and my brain goes "ohhh that's an Animal". also they come in funky colors and are soooo elegant when moving, i'm in awe. so sad i live on a continent where i can't just happen upon them on a walk.

for single species of spiders that are neither jumping spiders or tarantulas:

szongáriai cselőpók: this is a single species (lycosa singoriensis). steppe spider!!!!! biggest spider found here. very shy girl that i really want to see one day. also wolf spiders carry all their young children on their back. up to a hundred of them. which is objectively amazing and also objectively incredibly freaky-looking. (i love every other wolf spider as well, but my girl szongáriai cselőpok is the bestt)

diving bell spider: UNDERWATER SPIDER. the one, singular spider species out of every spider ever to live underwater. coolest guy that exists. literally builds a little diving bell out of silk so it can breathe air in the water. (also there's a beloved hungarian children's cartoon with a diving bell spider as a main character)

my other favorite spiders include whoever is chilling in our bathroom, because i STILL haven't managed to figure out her species. but i love her personally.

since Skellies eyelights glow...

what if the lights are out and they're looking around (especially red eyelights) would a cat launch/chase at them like a laser pointer?

Dust: Killer! get your cat outta my eye socket!

[azzydoesstuff]

lethal company is an amazing game, but forest keepers are in desperate need for reworking. the ingame lore says that they only eat you because they're curious creatures, and are essentially big toddlers, so why don't they behave this way ingame?

if the forest keepers really are this way in the lore, they shouldn't be so persistent on chasing you down and devouring you. instead, they should actually be, you know, curious like the lore implies.

forest keepers should get distracted by things like toys and trinkets, just like toddlers do. you should be able to use the laser pointer to move them around or drop stuff like toy robots or clacky teeth or boomboxes for them to play around with. after like a minute or two they'll get bored and just throw the toy away, or just straight up eat it. un-interesting items like bottles or bolts or axles would only stop them, for a couple of seconds before they put it in their mouths.

if they do catch up to you and grab you, they shouldn't immediately eat you either. they're meant to be curious creatures like cats, so maybe they could play around with their prey a little bit. might give you a chance to escape. maybe they could carry you to a secluded area, like a "play place" or a "nest" and inspect you and play around with you a bit. if you don't entertain them while they keep you prisoner, they'll just put you in their mouth and chow down (as toddlers do when a toy provides no entertainment or feedback).

methinks this would be a good way to execute their lore better in gameplay and overall make them less of a pain in the ass

Chat Noir Headcannons

Attempts gymnastics, fails

Separation Anxiety

Tends to fall asleep on late night patrols

He loves to give you forehead kisses, they're quick and easy

Might have an obsession with touching you, literally in any way

Purrs, like actively, when he's around people he likes

More cat like than he wants to admit

Does, in fact, react to catnip

High key possessive/protective, even as a civilian

Will knock full glasses of water off tables and counter

Adores it when you rub his head between his cat ears

Is a massive sucker for those videos with the birds and mice on the screen

Chases laser pointers when its just you and him

He's a lovable idiot

Will sit on your roof and watch over you while you sleep if he has anxiety

He will bring you birds he finds (they'll be alive, no worries) cause he thinks he needs to care for you. Basically he thinks you can't fend for yourself, it makes you laugh

Chat has licked you once, BUT IN HIS DEFENSE. It was really late and he was really tired and he just kinda licked you

Chat rubs his cheek against you when he's being clingy, he's "marking you" he says

He gets the zoomies at the most inconvenient times

[spritehouse]

in my "they can all turn into cats for some unexplained reason" phase so here are my thoughts:

CW: mentions of drug use in spencer's section + CSA in derek's

Luke:

i think transmasc luke with a calico cat form would be nice. when he was younger, he hated shifting bc it made him dysphoric, but as he got more comfortable with himself he stopped minding as much.

also just this little calico cat walked up to somone and they're like "aww such a sweet girl" and then it turns into a tall muscular man.

or bengal cat luke bc i said so

Spencer:

mixed breed, but definitely has orange tabby in him. all of his genius goes out the window when he's a cat. he yells for food, chases laser pointers & light beams, sits in boxes, just the most Cat cat to exist. he also has zero balance so he does all this stupid shit and ends up falling every 3 seconds

he's also terrified of catnip after getting clean because he's afraid he'll become dependent on it

Derek:

i looked up athletic cat breeds and idk why but abyssinian stood out to me. my other option is a bombay cat

he hates being pet because buford would pet him, and he sees his cat form as a vulnerability, but as he gets more comfortable with his partners and feels safe around them, he lets them pet him

[crystalelemental]

Kitties update.

We've seen some funny stuff with Gia. For whatever reason, one morning she was super spooked and wasn't calming down too much, so any time we moved she'd startle and run away. One such surprise had her run to the window alcove...where Bond was. Gia froze and just stared at him, but refused to leave the window. Bond, for his part, looked up at her, hissed, then laid back down and went to sleep. Gia hesitated a moment, but did wind up leaving. It was just...very silly.

We also got the laser pointer back. Turns out, Gia loves the laser pointer. It's the only toy we've gotten her to respond consistently to. She had active big play, even with us in the room. This is great for Gia, but also for Coco, who has destroyed her rope stick. There's a toy with like a feather toy attached to a stretchy rope thing, which is then attached to a firm rod you wave around to make it move. Coco, ever the gremlin, loved chewing on the rod part. Which finally broke apart to the point that, while playing with it, it just snapped off. Fortunately, she likes the rope part too, but goddamn girl, must you destroy everything?

Speaking of bastardry, we've been waking up to various items pulled out toward the back door, near the guest room the cats like. We had kinda assumed it was Coco, given...well, everything about her. Until one day, my wife caught Gia picking up the sponge from the sink and running off with it. So it turns out Gia might be the hoarder. Her desired items include the sponge, the TV remote, my exercise bands, among others. I found their lost jiggle bell beanbag toy, and that seems to have momentarily reduced their tendency to play with things that are not toys. But they are a problem. They tore up an entire roll of paper towels! Stop destroying everything!

Bond has been getting better about Coco being present on the bed with him. He isn't happy about it and will chase her away if she gets too uppity, but honestly at this point I'm on his side. He's no longer getting annoyed about her presence, or even proximity. He's losing patience with her flopping around on the bed trying to play while we're sleeping. So like. Honestly dude, just slap her a little. Don't actually hurt her, but kick her ass just a little. I think he actually may have one time. She has not learned any lesson whatsoever.

We also have confirmed, live evidence of Coco Meows. A fly got into the house, and she got really excited about its presence. When I got up to take care of it, she gave a non-distressed meow. Prior, we've only heard her meow when she's scared or worried, like when we close her out of the room at night or we have to put them in the carry case. But it turns out, much like Gia, she has a very soft, cute meow. Which is...deceptive, really.

We're also finding out that Bond doesn't actually like almost anything but Chicken. We'd assumed he wasn't eating much of some of his dinners because he just doesn't eat much, and got him little half-portion meals. But then he ate none of it for anything fish-related. He only eats the chicken. Boy just likes his land animals, I suppose.

All three have started to learn timing in the schedule. Coco will come snuggle just before bed, Bond knows exactly when 5pm is for dinner and when the wife is set to get out of work, and Gia's pretty aware of her meal times. She'll kinda hover outside of the room starting around 6am for breakfast. I've had to rotate less demands in the morning for her. She doesn't like to approach for fear of getting picked up, so although she's used to it and calm, she doesn't like it. So I have to switch it up so she can't tell when it's going to happen. Which shouldn't be often, we just have a vet appointment in two weeks.

They're doing well. No major updates, but they are goofs.

[poisonouswritings]

Ahh shiz the brainworms got out again-

* worm delivers request to you*

Ahem anyways, can I request a last legacy fic with the main 3 or 4 (specifically knight wife anisa) and a s/o that somehow gets transformed into a Ilephta (probably because of Felix's spells) for like a day and how their li reacts to their s/o purring and doing the doggy foot thump (I'd be fun if s/o is like a mix between cat and dog ilephta) all while their li is torn between making felix fix their s/o and maybe they should stay this way...

Well anyway thanks for listening to my rambling but I've gotta get these brainworms back before they cause any damage!

Ps. Steve the brainworm like you and your writing!

Thank you Steve! An excellent delivery. 12/10 little FedEx dude

I do have a couple MC!Ilephta posts that I'll link here too because I should be allowed to shill my own shit sometimes for your convenience

^also Disney Anon I was going through my asks and I saw you asked about Sage with a cat ilephta!MC a little while ago so you can check out this one!

GN!Reader, I'm not specifying which animal you are but you have both dog and cat characteristics that switch depending on the moment so do with that as you will, very minor catnip joke, The Starsworn Share A Braincell

You have got to stop offering to help Felix test his spells.

It's a perfectly average day when Anisa and Sage return to Fathom. They'd spent the whole afternoon out chasing a bounty together, and it's been a very good reminder of Why Sage Could Never Be In The Sunstone Knights and Why Anisa Could Never Be A Griefer! They're friends but they are [] this close to killing each other. So You and Felix totally need to get in there and diffuse the situation a little bit.

And it's as they're coming in through the main entrance that they see you, laying on your back, snoozing in a sunbeam. You, their usually-human friend/partner, with fluffy ears and a fluffy tail. And when you yawn, you have fangs. Maybe you even have marks on your cheeks.

They also see Felix, crouched over you and scribbling in a notebook with a quill.

And Stella, who is batting your tail around.

When Felix does finally acknowledge everyone (which doesn't happen until Sage literally picks him up by the scruff of his neck like a kitten), he explains that he was testing a spell to improve agility and you'd offered to be his subject! And it had. Well. Unintended side effects.

It's about then that you stretch out and wake up with a yawn, fangs glinting in the sunlight and sliver-pupils widening and contracting. Your tail wags in excitement when you see your partner.

-----

Felix Escellun

Yes, Felix is aware that he massively screwed up. But he's also aware that you're adorable and this is probably the best he's ever screwed up, ever. So.

You two are in his study, you curled up in a sunbeam to nap and Stella curled up against your side. Cats sleep 12-16 hours a day and dogs sleep 12-14 hours a day so you nap a lot! Felix, with his perpetually terrible sleep-schedule and night owl tendencies, is more than happy to nap with you.

He wakes you up by petting you,, soft,,,

Once you're awake, it's play time! He pulls out your trusty laser pointer and starts pointing it around. You know what he's doing but your instincts refuse to let you ignore it.

(If you're in a poly with Rime then he breaks out the rest of the cat toys, and the boys team up to bully play with you.)

Felix decides that with your new superior sense of smell, you should help him hunt for ingredients for a potion he wants to try making! Also it'll take a potion to reverse this spell so like. Two-fer.

So you guys go out to the forest. He's got some samples of what you need, and he holds them out to you wrapped up in a handkerchief.

"Felix, I'm not a bloodhound! I can't" *pauses* *starts sniffing the air*

"Pardon, love, a what hound?"

*grabs his arm and pulls him along* "This way!"

"Darling, what in the world is a bloodhound!? Is it some demented sort of hellhound that goes after all the living instead of solely the damned?"

You continue yanking him along, your brain totally hyperfocused on the scent you've picked up.

You two pick your way through the forest. On the bright side his spell partially worked!! You now have cat-like agility and dog-like speed, so you're running circles around him. You have to help him across a tree-trunk bridge (you have heightened balance and we'll assume a little bit of extra strength since all the ilephta characters seem to be physically very strong) and he's clinging to you while complaining that He Could Have Just Portal-ed You Across!

Felix walking around,, trying not to trip on roots,, nose buried in his book,,, you keep zipping around him,,,, you're not used to this level of speed so you run face-first into a tree more than once,,,, he fusses over you every time (nearly dropping his book more than once) but is also trying not to laugh a bit.

He's not used to walking around so much so you'll have to stop and take multiple breaks throughout the day. If you start getting restless then he pets you and that's enough to calm you down.

Middle of hunting,, you just plop down in a sunbeam and be like 'okai nap time :3' and now Felix is dying because The Forest Is Not A Place To Sleep Because There Are Dangerous Creatures Afoot!! But Also You Are Very Cute And He Is hesitant to wake you up.

If this is after Nyacromancy then like. Like. He gets it.

Anisa Anka

Anisa has hair poofs when she's startled... you get hair/fur poofs now and suddenly she understands why you're always teasing her. It's adorable.

Firstly she's checking on you, making sure you feel okay and everything. Then she's lecturing Felix. Then she finally gets a chance to properly fawn over you. Totally gives you a treat. And kisses. And constantly strokes your hair/fur. Just generally dotes. If you're a cat ilephta then some of her grooming instincts might come out? She's a half-ilephta so I'm not. entirely. sure how strong her instincts are.

You had made plans to help her out with patrol the next day. Initially she assumes you'll not want to go, and makes plans to call in sick so she can keep an eye on you, but hey! You're up and raring to go as soon as the birds start chirping (because you tried to pounce on them). You promise her you'll try your best to reel in your instincts but Boy oh Boy you just are not prepared

The day starts out relatively normal! You both head to the castle so Anisa can clock in and give out routes to the other kni- aaand you're biting the arm of a training dummy and thrashing it around a little bit. Like an attack dog. Okay then.

Then you start batting at a butterfly. Like a kitten. Okay then x2.

The other knights are trying so hard to avoid laughing, both because they respect Anisa immensely and also because she will not be happy if they make fun of you. Annie herself is trying really hard to ignore it but is also covering her mouth to not make it obvious shes laughing.

If you're helping with patrol then I guess you should probably be wearing a Sunstone uniform? Anisa had to help you pull it on and you kept biting at the strap and tugging on it and loosening it. Poor Annie. She cups your cheeks and sternly tells you to stop and then you do a little whine because 🥺 Oh No GF Mad 🥺 and she scritches behind your ears to calm you down.

Once everyone has been given their assignments and sent off, you two can finally head out. Anisa gave you a route through the marketplace so you'll have lots of stuff to do while you're all exciteable.

Both dogs and cats have way fewer taste buds than humans do. So Anisa buys you a ton of snacks (food is her love language) and you just,, can't taste,,, most of them. Or rather they're very dull. She makes sure not to feed you chocolate or grapes or anything else that could potentially be hazardous.

Anisa is a pretty popular public figure, and by extension, so are you. So you get more than one question about what's with the sudden ears and tail. Little kids try to get you to join in their games by throwing balls and Frisbees and stuff. More than one person offers you a treat.

You guys run into Ayanna,,, she thinks it's hilarious. Teaches you some little tips and tricks about how to navigate being an ilephta.

C...ca....catnip?? You and Ayanna smoking catnip??? Anisa coming to check on you and you're both high and Anisa is lecturing her mother but Ayanna is not listening even a little

Once your shift is over, you guys go back to the apartment for dinner and to unwind. Anisa even picked up groceries so you can cook together! How considerate :) and as she's pulling groceries out of the bag she happens to put a cucumbe-

You Get The Zoomies And Freak The Fuck Out and Promptly Tear Up The Kitchen. Then Run Away To The Living Room. Then Tear That Up. Then Hide Under The Overturned Couch.

Meanwhile Anisa is standing there, hair-puffed, holding the cucmber to her chest because What In Talos' Name Just Happened

You're incredibly embarrassed, but Anisa is sweet about it. She gives you lots of headpats, scratches, and kisses until you calm down. Then you guys can clean up together and make something that doesn't involve cucumbers.

Later on, you guys are laying in bed,, Anisa jokingly rubs your tummy and your leg starts kicking,,, she thinks it's the cutest thing ever. And if you purr? She's Dead.

Takes her hair ribbon out and kinda dances it around in the air for you,, you immediately start batting at it. Which turns into biting at it. Which turns into her trying to keep you from accidentally swallowing it.

You spot a mouse and immediately pounce after it,, promptly destroy the entire apartment again,,, you didn't even catch it, it escaped out the open window,,, Anisa drags you off to bed and decides you guys will just clean it up tomorrow instead.

Sage Lesath

Okay I'm gonna get it out of the way now all the new sounds and smells are very overstimulating and you're kinda running around a lot and Sage has to keep chasing after you and one time he's holding you from behind so you can calm down and he grins and flashes his fangs and says if you don't settle down, well, he'll have no choice but to put you on a leash-

No but Sage is fucking enamoured and he's genuinely considering begging Felix to say there's no way to reverse it so you'll just stay like this permanently.

I mean not. Like. Literally because he wouldn't just do that. But if you did decide to remain an ilephta I think he would never stop smiling.

You guys head out to the tavern to start your day and pick a bounty and all, and the entire time Sage calling you his Puppy/Kitty. Emphasis on his. Now that you're an ilephta, you're able to smell exactly how much Sage has been scent-marking you. And whenever someone compliments you/is a little too flirty, Sage slyly rubs up against your back just to give you that little extra mark.

Possessive Kitty Possessive Kitty Possessive Kitty

Side note with how much I love doing jealous/possessive Sage,, like I really should just do a yandere thing at some point. It's sort of an x reader hallmark. I don't have much of an idea though so we'll see how it goes

In the tavern,, you have a drink (either alcohol or water or whatever you want) and you kinda lap at it like a dog would,, Sage thinks it's adorable

Yes he makes a joke about what else your tongue can do ;3

Okay okay okay hear me out,,, Ilephta!MC experiencing a heat,,,, ehehehehe,,,,,

Anyways, you guys have a bounty to go after! So once you've got some food, you head out into town and get to tracking. With your super-senses working together, you two are able to track the criminal down pretty easy. Now you just gotta catch up to the- oh you're already running

Sage watches in a mixture of awe and amusement as you go sprinting off like an arrow. Normally he'd be concerned about you taking down a bounty yourself, but your prey is so surprised by the sudden exciteable cat/dog/fluffy person suddenly pouncing on them and pinning them down. Your tail is wagging with pride at your catch and you look up at Sage with the cutest expression and You Deserve A Treat!! Sage promises he'll get you something after you bring the bounty in.

You spend the entire walk back staring at Sage's tail,, randomly batting at it,,, biting it once or twice,,,, Initially Sage is amused but he's gradually getting more and more flustered. He tells you that if you don't knock it off you guys are gonna have to take a detour ;)

As you hand over the bounty, the guard starts flirting with Sage. So you promptly wrap your arms around him from behind and start rubbing your face against his back to scent mark him. He's both a little turned on and also incredibly flustered about it because It Makes Him Happy To Know He's Yours.

Love bites,,, You'll be zoned out and then suddenly start nomming on him,,, tail curling around his wrist,,,,

You're sitting on his lap,, he's petting you all over,,, you start kneading biscuts against the floor/table/whatever and Sage is internally squealing,, Is this why you constantly tease him for being a cat? Suddenly He Gets It.

He brushes your fur,, You keep growling and biting the brush,, he's as soft as he can be but snags are inevitable. When you stop growling/biting, he makes sure to kiss the top of your head and praise you for being so good. Once he's done you fall back against him,, reclined against his lower stomach,,, smiling,,, and doing that slow blink things cats do when they're content,, your tail is wagging,,,,

He's so in love with you he feels like he needs to cough up a hairball.

Since my brain wont shut the fuck up until I tell you about it here's some basic lore for the hybrid au thing. Be warned their world is fucked

Hybrids are a man made creation, some folks in the government got a little god complex with gene splicing and now hybrids are just a thing. That was a good few generations ago tho so most hybrids that are still kicking were born from hybrid parents

Hybrids are looked down upon, either because people think they're dangerous i.e. tigers and lion and bears oh my, or because they're seen as pets i.e. cats dogs and rabbits

Most places wont hire hybrids still so they have to give themselves up in some way, whether that means giving themselves up for testing or for adoption is up to how dangerous people think they are

Hybrids can also be born mixed breeds. Say if a bird hybrid and a cat hybrid had a kid that kid might look just like a cat hybrid but they will constantly try to jump from high places because their brain thinks they should be able to fly. Being a hybrid is also a dominant trait so if you have one hybrid parent you will also be a hybrid

All hybrids also have small characteristics from the animal they are. So like, dog hybrids don't like their hand being held and might bark at the TV, cat hybrids hate wearing shoes and will run into walls if chasing a laser pointer ect. Most of these traits are masked as hybrids get older but hybrids feel the best if they are allowed to show them

Any questions?

Oooooh delightfully fucked up!! I love it!!

Where do they get adopted from? Are there hybrid pet shops or do they just choose to put themselves up for adoption on like... ebay or something?

I think it could be really fun if the person who found him is also an Astronomer or something, so they're also a little bit confused as to why Aven reminds them of a star.

Also said person getting a laser pointer and using it to play with Aven-

Also I could see Aven trying to walk and immediately collapsing due to pain and the inability to feel anything in his legs... cue said person catching him before he could injury himself more (It would be funny if the person is shorter than him... although that seems pretty likely considering that Aven is 6"10.

I could imagine that Edda is, in fact, alive, but also somewhat injuried too... let's just say having so much godly power packed in such a small body would burn... a lot.

The mental image of Aven chasing a laser is pretty funny to me— he's like this big star entity but somewhat acts like a mix of a cat and a dog—

Oh dear— I can see him getting frustrated of his own inability to do something as basic as getting up and walk, but it's the result of his huge injury so he can't really force his body to do anything other than wait for it to heal...

Even if the person were to try to catch him before he could fall, I think they'd both just crumple on each other hah— it makes sense considering Aven's height... neither of them get too injured, hopefully—

Oough,,, poor Edda.. having godly powers would definitely have some effects on a body not used to having that huge amount of power, it would be overwhelming, and oh dear, the thought of it burning her in some ways is just— :(((

Muse gimmicks!

Grimlock has rubber beans! They're used for better grip on melee weapons, people and even structures! They're also heated and can be quite soft, so they're also very efficient for face rubs!

Grimlock's audials flick and twitch whenever he's thinking of attentive. They're very sensitive to sounds and are like little radars! Perfect for tracking people down!

He also posesses a very strong senses of smell, also quite useful for tracking! Also helps him figure out if something is poisoned or not!

He chases laser pointers. This man is half dog, half cat, all dinosaur. Do what you will with that information.

Every now and again, if you're quiet, you can catch Grimlock purring softly in his sleep if he's comfortable. Sometimes he idly kneads if he's really comfy.

Grimlock's right optic is a bit brighter than his left, that's because it's newer! Replacement optics are so shiny and pretty!

He'd wear audial piercings if he could. He'd rock those things.

HE LIKES PLANTS. A LOT. But shhhh I didn't tell you that, he's very shy about it.

I feel like whenever they're in their cat/base forms, Lil Coding and Plurality just do the stupidest things ever. Like they'll jump up to a windowsill and end up slamming into the wall instead.

Peaking through through the gaps of a railing? They fall through it.

Laser pointer? MUST CHASE
