prompt 35 for reggie ship of choice?

Reggie snuck into the house, which was really quite hard with both his hands full of tiny, squirming kitten. He'd been the last one in the box at the foot of the alleyway, the cliché FREE KITTENS on the front.

And look, Reggie was more of a dog guy, or even a hamster guy, but like, the tiny sad mews just broke his heart and what if nobody else took him home? Then he'd be all alone. He couldn't let that happen.

Still, he needed to convince the others. And he had the perfect plan. Thankfully, most of them were in the living room, Luke and Willie half-heartedly watching a show, Julie doodling, Alex flipping through a magazine with his head in Willie's lap and his feet in Luke's.

So Reggie strode into the living room, before holding out the kitten to Julie, who was probably going to be the easiest to sway.

"The last thing you ate is what we have to name him," he said, seriously.

"Mew," said the kitten, and Julie's eyes widened with Cute Overload.

"Ass," Willie blurted out.

"Dude!" Alex said, shooting upright, face red, which answered the question of whose ass. He seemed to realise that a moment too late, when Luke leaned over to fistbump Willie.

"Um okay, maybe not that," Reggie said, looking hopefully at Julie again.

"Peanut Butter Bagel," Julie said.

"Mew," Peanut Butter Bagel said, when she reached out to pet him.

One down...

"Frito!" Luke said.

"That's more of a dog name," Reggie said, cocking his head. Maybe if he played his cards right...

"Since when are we getting a dog?" Julie asked.

"Well, Luke already named him!" Reggie argued.

"Yeah, Jules!" Luke said, because he was the best boyfriend. At least right now. "Do you want Peanut Butter Bagel to be an only child?"

The bickering started up, comforting and familiar, as Willie came over to inspect the kitten and make friends, and Alex admitted he was pretty cute, and by the time anyone realised that no, they'd never agreed to a kitten, Peanut Butter Bagel already had a name, a water dish, a comfy box to sleep in, an improvised toy (one of Julie's scrunchies) and the hearts of over half of the polycule.

Points to Reggie.

Now apparently, on to part two of his plan, a dog named Frito...
