Munkustrap drew a line in the dirt with his foot, “Now let's say I'm a cat not in the tribe and I'm entering the junkyard. What do you do?”

Pouncival ran up and pushed him to the other side of the line, “And don't come back!”

Munkustrap patted his head, “You are getting stronger, but no. Tums?”

Tumblebrutus ran up to him, violence in his eyes. Munkustrap dodged him and Tumblebrutus ate dirt.

Munkustrap helped him up, “Alright, let's try the girls.” He looked at Electra, “What do you do?”

Electra walked up to him, crossed her arms, and told him, “Hey, this is the junkyard for the Jellicle tribe. Leave.”

Munkustrap shook his head, “A bit too rude, and not what I'm looking for. But I appreciate that you didn't rush into a fight.”

Etcetera’s turn! Etcetera went to him and asked, “I’m sorry, but you're not allowed here. Can you please leave?”

Munkustrap petted her, “You were close, but not quite there. Alright, Jemima, what do you think you should do?”

Jemima looked at her paws, “I was going to do what she did.”

Munkustrap looked at all the kittens, they were still learning, “Kits, you were supposed to start with asking me what I was here.”

Jemima asked, “Oh, Da- stranger cat, what are you doing in the junkyard?”

Munkustrap got on the kitten's level, “I'm looking to join the tribe. Do you know where the leader of the tribe is?”

“He’s right there.” Pouncival pointed at the tire where Old Deuteronomy was resting. He waved hi to the kittens.

Tumblebrutus asked, “But what do we do if you are dangerous?”

Munkustrap purred, “You know what to do.” All the kittens play-tackled him.

Day 2 & 3: Favorite WLW and MLM

I forgot to post for yesterday so I'll just put them together. Also favorite MLM would be Tumblestoffelees but I'm just gonna ignore that for this one.

Electcetera & Coricojerrie!

There both cute. I like Bombalurina and Demeter, but I generally prefer Demestrap. Electcetera is just a really cute dynamic and I love it for them. Coricojerrie has great content for it, and they have a great dynamic. I'm not huge on Tuggoffelees but I don't mind it.

Crystalball's Jellicle Valentine Month- Day 14

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

14- Which Jellicles' love language is acts of service?: Mistoria!

It takes plenty of practice for Misto to perfect his magic. When Cassandra's not around to assist, Vicci lends a helping paw. Victoria was the second cat Mistoffelees ever teleported, after trying it on himself first.

Jellicle Valentine Month Day 3: Favorite MLM Ship

i mean... come on, it's them

[eldritchmist]

Feb 28: Write a oneshot about your favourite rare-pair

Okay, so it's my very first oneshot I ever wrote so read it carefully :D

Mistocavity fluff based on an artwork I'm currently working (and will reblog this illustrated with it). Inspiration was the song of the same name by Lord of the Lost feat. Scarlet Dorn.

I love the way you say my name

Macavity's hands wandered slowly down on the slim, black furred body, caressing away the last sparks of the delight they had just a few moments ago. The rain knocked hardly on the old window and the deep voice was just as rumbling like the receding thunder.

- Mistoffelees

The black cat couldn't hide his smile. Mistoffelees. Not Misto, not Mist, not other pet names, just Mistoffelees. Macavity calls him always on his full name and it was somewhat suitably strange. And it felt oddly...proper? Maybe. He never wanted to be someone's darling, sweetheart or - Everlasting help - baby. He also put lots of effort to stop Tugger calling him Sparkles, without a single hint of success. Most of the Jellicles call him Misto and his full name used just in serious cases. Hearing it face to face sounds naturally just from Macavity.

Mistoffelees smiled again and opened his eyes, a bit startled for a moment as the golden eyes of the big, red cat were just centimeters apart from his face. Macavity was lying on his side, with smiling eyes and curious expression.

- I thought you dozed.

Mistoffelees stretched. - I was thinking.

Macavity's curious look came more expressive as he raised on his elbows and tilted his head. A small thought that he is not less curious than his younger brother at all, made the black cat chuckle.

- I wonder why you call me always on my full name. - he said. Macavity's brows raised with surprise before the typical, one-sided smirk appeared on his face.

- Well - he answered, touching lightly a black ear - I like the story your name is from. - the smirk wided - Your almost full name, I mean.

- Oh - Mistoffelees looked at him in surprise - so you know, what my real full name shoud be.

The red cat nodded, smiling. - Mephistopheles. The demon from the story of Doctor Faust.

Mistoffelees felt a sudden odd feeling in his chest as he heard this name. The almost forgotten memory of the voice of his father rumbled in his ears. No one, literally no one used this name after that night. The last night before he and his sister teleported to the woods for saving their life. The last night before coming to the Junkyard. The last night he has parents.

He fell back into the reality as he felt a large, warm hand on his own. Macavity looked down to him, worrying. Mistoffelees sighed and shooed away the memories as he forced out a small smile.

- I just thought of my parents. You know, my father was a real fan of Faust's story, he grabbed every single opportunity to see it as theater, ballet, whatever he could sneak in. He even met my mother at a ballet production of Faust. And when he first saw me as a kitten, he immediately wanted to name me after the demon.

- I don't blame him - Macavity laughed - It's a kind of a story and you are kind of a cat. Besides you could play Mephistopheles with your bare face. But why they skip letters from it?

- Oh - Mistoffelees laughed and recognized the heavy feeling fading from his heart - my mother was very inconsistent with naming her kitten after a demon, so father decided to drop some letters and said that no one will recognize the original one. Mother was suspicious but agreed, particulary after father said nothing when she named my sister after a human queen.

Macavity nuzzled his head and pulled him into his arms. The thunder was over, the sky cleared and the light of the first stars started to appear. Mistoffelees felt the rumble resonating from Macavity's chest as he spoke:

- You are my little demon, Mistoffelees. Or, do you prefer an other form of address?

Mistoffelees buried his smile into the thick red fur.

- Not at all. I love the way you say my name.

Notes:

1. Mistoffelees is named after Mephistopheles, the demon from Faust. It's a fact.

2. In most of the productions, Mephistopheles's face are the same kind of black and white like Mistoffelees's and they use a recognizable black 'V' pattern on the forehead, which also appears on some of the Misto's (included my own Misto design).

3. In my hc Mistoffelees and Victoria are twins/littermates and their parents are an eldritch cat, who appears as a stage-magician named Faustus among regular cats (father) and a white ballet cat (mother). One day the cats of the theatre found out that the father is not a normal cat and the company started to fear, banned the mother and attacked them. Faustus teleported the kittens into the woods near the Junkyard to save them, planning to pick them when the fight is over. But it never happened, because both of the parents died and the Jellicles found the kittens days after the fight. Later Munkustrap and Alonzo found out, that the whole theater burned down and everyone died, including the parents. The Jellicles adopted the kittens after that.

Feb 28: Write a oneshot about your favourite rare-pair

Here there be 500 very dumb words of Tuggerjerrie fluff.

*yeets into the void*

Mungojerrie stretched to the fullest and yawned hugely. His tail whipped as he resettled into the thin beam of weak sunlight. Who kept watches in the middle of winter, anyway? No cat in their right mind was going to try taking over when everything was frozen. He laid his head on his paws and curled up tight against the cold.

Stupid responsibilities.

Mungojerrie yawned again, eyes screwing shut.

“Sleeping on the watch already?”

“I’m awake!” Mungojerrie jerked up, ears pushed forward. He blinked at nothing, then looked down and grinned. “Tugger!”

The Rum Tum Tugger stood with his paws loosely hooked into his belt. He cocked his head. “You were expecting someone else?”

“Thought mebbe you were Straps.”

“Would be like him to watch the watcher,” Tugger agreed, rolling his eyes.

Mungojerrie snickered. He sat up, nodding hopefully at the space next to him. “Wanna join me?”

“Bored already?”

“Critically.”

“You’ve been at it for fifteen minutes.”

“How d’you know?” Mungojerrie smirked slyly. “Watching me?”

Tugger smirked back. “Would it make you happy if I was?”

Mungojerrie decided his ears needed fastidious grooming. Honestly. Tugger knew the answer and he knew that Mungojerrie knew. Tugger chuckled knowingly, rolling his shoulders in a lazy stretch. Mungojerrie hissed halfheartedly at him.

“Well,” Tugger drawled. “I must do my duty to provide succor to all bored cats.”

He leaped up to the oven and circled to make himself comfortable. Their sides brushed lightly several times until Tugger settled at Mungojerrie’s side. They sat in silence for a while. Then Tugger pushed his shoulder into Mungojerrie’s. Mungojerrie glanced at him, found him looking out over the junkyard with a tiny smile playing at the corners of his lips, and nudged back.

“Attacked!” Tugger wailed, going boneless against Mungojerrie, “Betrayed!”

“Oy!” Mungojerrie laughed and jabbed his elbow lightly into Tugger’s side. “Get off ya big lug.”

Tugger whined dramatically. “Double-crossed and deceived!” He slid into Mungojerrie’s lap, closing his eyes and going limp. There was a beat of silence and then he opened his eyes. “Actually, this is quite nice. I think I’ll stay here.”

Mungojerrie swallowed. “S-sure. If you want?”

“I do,” Tugger rolled over just a little, pulling his long legs in to tuck himself around Mungojerrie and kneading absently at Mungojerrie’s thigh.

“I... thought you didn’t like cuddles?”

“From humans,” Tugger said, making a face. “Always drooling into my fur.”

Mungojerrie bit back a snicker. He ran his fingers through Tugger’s mane; a moment later, purring vibrations rose to meet the careful stroking of his claws. Tugger yawned and snuggled closer. Mungojerrie decided discretion was the better part of valor.

“Hey.”

Mungojerrie looked down. “Hm?”

Tugger’s eyes glinted in a way that made Mungojerrie’s stomach flip in anticipation. Tugger crooked a finger at him. Mungojerrie leaned down. Tugger hooked the finger in his collar and lifted himself up just enough to press their lips together. Mungojerrie hummed into the kiss. They pulled apart slowly.

“Romantic,” Mungojerrie scoffed affectionately.

Tugger laughed. “Shut up.”

Day 1: OTP

I'm doing two just cause.

Tumblejem & Tumblestoffelees!

I like Tumblejem a bit more, but Tumblestoffelees is not far behind at all, it depends on my mood for the day, and the production. Not enough content for both of these.

Crystalball's Jellicle Valentine Month- Day 11

11- Which Jellicles' love language is physical touch?: Demestrap! Munk and Deme can reassure each other with the simple brush of a paw. Although they tend to be private, their closest friends can tell when they're in need of a nuzzle from the other. As Bomba would say, "Demeter is horribly cranky when she misses Munkustrap."
