Alonzo Things Part 1
This got long but I don't regret it.
Very few cats are ever allowed inside the casslonzo/alondra den. This is Alonzo's rule, though Cass doesn't mind it- she likes to have their own space too. Alonzo likes to keep his tribe duties away from the place where he unwinds in the evening. (The demestrap family -Munk, Deme, Misto, Quaxo, Vic, Jem and Bubs- are pretty much the only cats allowed inside. Though Tugger often wanders in when he needs to fetch Alonzo)
He has a soft spot for Victoria (he hasn't a clue why, really) yes you do alonzo don't deny it you see a little of yourself in her but you had to be tough and lost that certain... innocence, almost, that she has about her and you want to protect her from the same fate but she's tougher than you want to admit like goddamn she had to be plus her grace you arent the most graceful cat in the junkyard anymore the pupil has become the master
He's good with the kittens! Most of the time, anyway. Especially the older ones.
He's a total flirt but so is Cass. They understand each other.
While he loves and respects Old Deuteronomy along with the other Jellicles, his loyalties lie with Munkustrap. Though he'd never say it out loud, if he had to choose one or the other, he'd choose Munk. Demeter and Cass both suspect this- how could they not? Old Deuteronomy knows this is the case and believes that is the way it should be. Munkustrap is clueless- and it's better that way.
Alonzo's favourite colour is dark blue.
He can't stand dogs. Can't stand them. Thinks they're a waste of space and too noisy. Not to mention slobbery.
Neither he nor Cass are interested in having kittens themselves. Alonzo is of opinion he'd be a terrible father lol.
Misto and Quaxo are his little half-brothers and they all know this. The younger two love to call him ancient. Misto knows 'Lonz can be hot-headed and tries to calm him down when Spike riles him up, much to Alonzo's annoyance. "Don't let my temper get the better of me, I know. Don't scold me, Misto."
His family is complicated and I'll explain it in another post, but Victoria is his cousin
He never wanted humans. He ran away the first, and second, and third time the tribe tried to give him a home when he was a kitten. Eventually they gave up and let him live in the Junkyard.
His favourite duty as second is organising patrols, watches and scavenger patrols! Something is just so interesting to him about pairing different cats together, seeing which cats gel well and work together efficiently and which cats are better left on watch or on separate patrols. His absolute favourite part is giving young tom- and queenkittens their first patrols (and going with them for it!). They're always so excited.
His own favourite time to patrol is the midnight patrol, much to Cass' irritation- she likes to sleep at night because that's what her owners do. Somehow, even though Alonzo is one of the quietest and sneakiest cats in the whole Junkyard, he always manages to wake her. It's almost like she has a sixth sense.
Alonzo is an average height- the cats that are taller than him include but are not limited to: Munk, AJ, Tugger, Mungo, Admetus and George. Tugger always rests his arm on Alonzo's shoulder and that's Alonzo's least favourite thing about the other tom.
He is, of course, the slinkiest cat in existence
As he's a really pretty cat, the humans always give him bowls of cream. One of the more... mischievous... things he does with the kittens is go begging and have them hide out of sight, and when the human puts out the cream or other treat, share it with them.
He really, really does not get along with Spike.
He has so many nicknames. Tugger has a load for him, he has at least three from Munkustrap, Victoria calls him 'Zo- And many of them are to do with his colouring! Munk calls him Black-and-White, Tugger has an array of nicknames (Tuxedo, Domino, Bowtie, Constable, Pinstripe, Piano) but when Spike calls him "Checkers" he means it as an insult.
Alonzo remembers hearing a whisper of a tale that's mostly been forgotten; all Jellicles have a bit of magic. At least a tiny bit of magic, though not all as flashy or strong as Misto or Coricopat and Tantomile. Alonzo half doesn't believe this, but sometimes he wonders... he's always had a connection with water... and how else could Victoria be such a gifted healer, or Munkustrap be such a good storyteller?

imagine being someone at new rome university and not knowing percy is the same guy as “percy jackson, son of poseidon, two-time hero of olympus, former praetor” because the thought doesn’t even cross your mind. like… he’s percy. he’s a total frat boy. on a normal night, he walks into a party, refers to everyone as bro or dude, socializes with every living (and not-living) person in the room, makes at least 50 sarcastic comments, plays 12 rounds of beer pong, drinks way too much, and then skates around campus on his skateboard yelling “I LOVE NEW YORK” (which makes no sense, because they’re in california) until someone calls his girlfriend to come get him.
and then one day there’s an attack, and frat boy percy is all of a sudden a fighting machine. he’s yelling battle cries alongside the praetors frank zhang and hazel levesque as they lead everyone into battle. (why is he with the praetors? and why…. why in the world do the praetors seem to be following his lead?) his sword slashes through armies of monsters faster than you’ve ever seen. he’s controlling the entire river surrounding the camp, creating huge waves as tall as skyscrapers that crash down all around him, wiping out monsters and causing mass destruction to his enemies’ ranks. the sky is suddenly dark above you, ice-cold water droplets are slashing through the air, and the wind is blowing so aggressively that it’s making it hard to stand up steadily. because he’s somehow created a hurricane.
and he looks terrifying. you can feel the power radiating off of him. he’s like a god. or maybe a monster. it’s hard to tell. you’re a little scared of him, to be honest. but also in total awe, because it’s extraordinary. he’s extraordinary.
frat boy percy is not who you thought he was.
