oh my god, if you ballroom dance with me in the club while everyone else is grinding on each other i will lose another life laughing

i will defend your honour with my life.

unless you find someone you like the look of more than me, in which case i'll manipulate my way into a threesome with you both. or take you home and remind you who you came with. depends how i'm feeling~


[ He's not dodging the question, you're dodging the question. ]

i moved... a couple of days ago?
it was kind of sudden, honestly, it's not like i was hiding it, i just
forgot? didn't think to tell anyone? idk
consider this your formal notification that i no longer live at my old address.

i guess im just not used to people knowing where i am at all times

and i suppose not... though technically i wasn't a city cat before i arrived here either. my home town didn't exactly have a bustling population

but it's nice here. it's... quiet. but not in the lonely way. weirdly tranquil for a place like decadia.
and there's a garden for vyv and marmalade to explore.

i think she has a favourite, actually. the blue one you got her with the lighter colour around the neck that matches her eyes. she's wearing it right now.

[ He drops Simon a pin, with the location of Phainon's cottage on the outskirts of the city. ]

my room is the attic, so let me know when you're here and i'll come down to meet you
really, one of these days you should learn to teleport. making me wait around for you like this πŸ™„

let's not limit you to one colour here, you look great in everything.
and out of it too~


with a can-do attitude, simon, you'd be surprised what the average human is capable of

and no, i'm not in the rafters! there's other people in this house, this is the only floor where i'm not expected to share anything with anyone β€” and, it's at the top of the house. the highest point. i'd argue that's very kingly.

or, maybe the more we fuck the more of my magic will rub off on you. only one way to find out, i'm afraid!

[ Two can play at that game. ]

asking what my bed looks like already... some men are only after one thing

[ Cat, you literally just sexually harassed him. ]

for your information, i have pretty much the same set up. except i have more pillows. and the bed is bigger. i'm a three cat household now, after all.

[personal profile] catting 2026-03-05 10:09 am (UTC)(link)
it has, but luckily i don't hold on to things like that. you're worth more to me than your sweet, tight little ass.

though i do miss it. and you. 😽

lucky for you, my powers will work more than fine once i get my hands all over you on the dance floor. so if you really want to test it out after we dance, i can make it happen.


[ Attached, a picture of Vyvyan currently sprawled up near the pillows on a large comfortable bed. She's got her favourite sweater on, and she's looking at the camera like she wants it to explode. ]

that's if vyv makes room for us

[ Cat, on the other hand, is definitely smiling about it. He knows he and Simon are good, even if they haven't been physical with each other for a while. He gets it! He knows Simon is in love (or at least in something) with Harrow now, and can only imagine how that might complicate things with the guy who's been effectively humping your leg for a couple of months... but the Cat came out of it feeling closer to Simon in a friendship way than he ever has with anyone, given something he didn't realise he needed, and honestly? That was all he ever wanted. A part of Simon that's his. ]

true... she's never scratched me but she hardly needs to with a glare like that
and she can be really mean sometimes

guess we'll have to do it on the floor instead

or find some nice private little booth at the club.... you like booths, don't you, simon?

idk i feel like if i keep trying to shove her in more elaborate outfits she might be tempted. technically i'm not *her* king, after all.
tho idk if decadia has a reigning cat monarchy other than me. i'd have to ask all the other cat people here if they have any objections to me taking that spot.


[ Which is, like, just Cipher. And he's pretty sure she won't care. ]

let's not forget hot chocolate stands either. i knew you were a little freak from the first time i saw you πŸ’œ

[personal profile] catting 2026-03-06 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Cat is kind of proud of that, honestly. It gives him the same feeling he got at the ball, giving Simon a messy lipstick kiss and then sending him off into the night, like he's made a mark on him that won't fade even when the physical ones do. And if that's encouraging Simon to let his freak flag fly, then he's happy with that. ]

no no i'llβ€”

[ Moments later, the Cat is opening the front door, looking only a little out of place amidst all this sunlight and all these flowers while wearing all black. He grins when he sees Simon, relief and joy and a whole bunch of other things surfacing on his face, so that he's unable to resist the urge to reach out a hand to scoop his up. ]

At least you didn't leave me waiting too long. C'mon. I hope you're ready to climb like three flights of stairs.

[ He has no idea who is in the house right now, but he doesn't spot anyone in the communal areas on the first floor, so they very well could have the house to themselves. Except for the cats, of course. And the chimera. ]
catting: (93)

[personal profile] catting 2026-03-07 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
That's Fig Stew. He's a chimera. Mydeimos' chimera, though he's kind of a communal animal at this point. He roars at my door sometimes if he can't get in and wants to tussle with the cats.

[ The Cat shrugs in an idk man, I'm from Earth kind of way that at least Simon will relate to. While Simon's Earth and his may not be the same version of Earth, they can at least agree that the word 'chimera' inspires a very different mental picture than the cute little furball blinking curiously at them as they move through the house. ]

This house was a viewer gift. Some of us are getting cats and drugs and bicycles and sex toys, and some of us are getting giant fairytale houses. I guess it's whatever your audience thinks you need most, right?

[ He leads Simon past the kitchen and the little communal living space, up the stairs to the floor where the other members of the household live, and then toward the door that looks more like it leads to a closet than anything else. Behind that door lies another set of stairs, a little more narrow, leading up into an open plan room with a small ensuite and a large window letting in natural light. It's smaller than his city apartment, and it's less dark and shadowy, but a lot of the Cat's familiar comforts are here: his furniture, his clothes in piles by the built-in closet that he's yet to organise, his comfy couch and armchairs, and his blanket and pillow nest on his bed. And, of course, Vyvyan and Marmalade, both looking with large eyes at the two of them as they approach. ]

... I've been getting close to the guy who owns the house, so when he got it, he asked his friends from his own world to move in and... I was part of the extended list.

[ He sounds like he's picking his words carefully, because he doesn't want to undersell any part of this or brush it off, but he also isn't particularly accustomed to saying vulnerable things like this all out in the open. He looks at Simon as if trying to judge his reaction β€” is he moving too fast, is it a good thing, is it a red flag move, is he being dumb? β€” but can't really bring himself to look anything other than pleased when he looks at him. He really did miss having him around. ]

[personal profile] catting 2026-03-07 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The Cat blinks and then nods when Simon says his name and the names of his friends β€” relieved on the one hand that he doesn't have to do some sort of romcom-esque attempt at describing Phainon's personality to Simon, and strangely wondering what Simon's take on him is. Simon has a decent judge of character at least. Not perfect, given who he's in love (or whatever) with, but decent.

At Simon's second question, the Cat squeezes his hand and fixes him with a look. If you ask him, that's a pretty cruel question to ask a Cat who can't lie, but... well, it's not like he has anything to hide from Simon. Simon came to him in his hour of need, and while the Cat has done a lot worse to Phainon than sucking his dick and doesn't feel particularly in need or anything here, it's not like he thinks Simon will berate him for this.

He might tell him he's moving too fast, but he already knows that. He might tell him he's fucking stupid for getting in so deep with someone who already has a best friend to be crazy about (again!!!), but the Cat already knows that, too. ]


It'd be pretty hard to get close to him if I didn't like him. [ Pause. ] Yes, I like him. [ The Cat squints. ] What are you looking at me like that for?
