#cats!au

Hey hey! Here be my second drawing for HfBLM :’) I was supposed to post this yesterday but... c:

This one is for @gideongrace, who requested Billy as a Rum Tum Tugger, and Stevie boy as Mr. Mistoffelees from The Cats musical! At first I freaked out because there is SO much hair and bling in this show...but hey! Always up for a challenge, so Gideon...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SIGNING PETITIONS! <3 And thanks for the request xDD

Btw...I have not seen this musical, and know virtually nothing about the show...please don’t @ me xDD But through my research I did see that Mr. Mistoffelees is hella flexible and ballet-oriented so I was PLEASED! What a fitting character for Steve because Yikes and I LOVE the headcanon of Steve being an amazing dancer...and I secretly would like to think even if he wasn’t a dancer...he should be super bendy because...I’ve taken photos of me as Steve in bendy poses and I enjoy the living daylights out of that idea xD

Like, one moment they're fighting each other and like five minutes later they're sharing a cat bed and grooming each other

And there’s that scene that confirms Macavity wants to steal Demeter back.

or

Yes I’m turning this into a serious AU. Outcat is a good and pure thing.

So... here we have Eddie, Frank & Dennis. They’re all alley-cats. Eddie was once a showcat, actually, but his owner passed away ( the bowtie is from her! ). Frank was born an alley-cat. Dennis was also once owned, but ran away - he was the runt of his litter too. They’re all buddies okay

≥︺‿︺≤ - AU where our muses are cats

(yesssscatsmeow bonsoir! I literally could not decide what breed of cat to make Washington, that’s why this took so long I’m sorry xD Also I’m totally picturing this in a more lackadaisy cats style s’up xD) 

***

Washington was a wild Bengal, just shy of two generations from a domesticated breed. That, of course, meant that the snow-spotted feline was more leopard that house-cat. It also made him a mean hunter. 

 Through a series of strange events, he found himself in a place he was not at all familiar with, and that put him more on edge. He kept away from large crowds when he could, but it wasn’t a place where he could just catch food. He would need to earn it, ultimately. 

…Rain. Great.
