#macastrap

Mistoffelees and Munkustrap stayed on a blanket, drinking tea, talking, happy and content.

AlmonDisco and Shyny were destroying Macavity and Tugger in the volleyball. Somehow Oranglow was their arbiter, but he had no idea about the rules. HoneyTrap was a fantastic cheerleader, even when he cheered both sides.

Haze was napping in the sun until the ball hit him in the ass. He yelped and joined the game, in "father's team" because it was Shyny who hit him, and HoneyTrap joined the second one. Oranglow was dismissed from his position, because of flirting with them and not doing his job.

Macavity, walking into the room: No, you don't.

Munkustrap: I was literally just sitting here. It is far too early for this.

Haze: Dad, I think you went over and above of yourself this time. It's definitely something.

HoneyTrap: Oh my Cat, you are hopeless, both of you. Mister Macavity, it's one of the most beautiful necklace I saw. Stunning is too little! Totally and completely breathtaking! Gorgeous! Those gems! And ornaments!

Macavity: ... At least I know you don't want to get points of my sympathy, because you know I hate when you call me that.

HoneyTrap: And what's the occasion?

Macavity: None. I... it's the first gift of that value I can give my... Munku.

HoneyTrap: Mac... I know he loves you, but after that? You can treat my father as you want for a whole day and Munkustrap doesn't say a word.

(Mac and Munku were running most of their lives together, so they didn't have too much. And this is the early stage of Munkustrap being back on the junkyard, and with Macavity nonetheless.)

Macavity smiled, when he stopped hearing coughing. Yes, his magic worked perfectly.

AlmonDisco: And where we are?

Shyny: Give me a moment and I'll know everything. (And he disappeared in the shadows)

Mistoffelees: I... Somehow my magic didn't work as it should and... It's my fault! I'm sorry!

Munkustrap: Misto, calm down, please! It's not your fault.

Rum Tum Tugger: He's right... It's not your fault. It's... Mine.

Munkustrap: What? How! You didn't do anything wrong!

Rum Tum Tugger: I... I thought it was Mac who was supposed to bring us on place and... When he asked for a focus from the place we wanted to go, I just took the first thing from a junkyard...

Macavity, furious, caught by Munku in a last moment: YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Munkustrap: Mac, stop it right now! It's not time!

Oranglow, trying to lift morale and calm down them: At last we are safe for now and Shyny will be back in a moment with more info.

HoneyTrap, to Tugger: Dad?!?! How could you?

Rum Tum Tugger: What? I thought... OK, I wanted to disturb his magic. I thought it would be fun! I wanted to see his face.

Mistoffelees: Oh, cupcake... Don't do that ever again! It is so dangerous!

Shyny, appearing: We are in a chest on some big ship... the ocean, probably.

Mistoffelees: Not bad. Mac, do you think you can teleport us home, with my not so big help, I'm drained, I'm sorry...

Macavity, snarling: Of course I can! But I need something from the junkyard.

Haze: Thank Cat, I'm like a vampire and I always have something from home with me...

AlmonDisco: Nah, it's OK. Look, our parents don't shout at each others. Moreover, they sometimes talk like normal cats!

Shyny, looking at Munku and Mac: Maybe you are right? Papa is smiling and dad... Well, he isn't scowling so much...

AlmonDisco, warning Misto and Tugger with a finger, but in a way Shyny can't see it: Yeah, they are quite civilised to each other today. I think bonding by a walk was a great idea!

Macavity, to Munku, smiling ironically and whispering: You know what? I like that little fucker more and more.

Munkustrap, hissing: Don't call AlmonDisco like that. He is our son's boyfriend and you have to be nice to him!

Rum Tum Tugger, to Misto, grumbling: I don't like it. Even our son is treating me like an unruled kitten!

Mistoffelees: You had a chance to behave at dinner and you made a fuss, so now it isn't very unexpected AlmonDisco is showing his disapproval. (Smiling sweetly) Yes Munku, you're right! It would be great to have a nap in the sun!

(As you could guess, the situation between those two families (Macavity/Munkustrap, with a son Shyny and Rum Tum Tugger/Mistoffelees, with a son AlmonDisco, when those two kids are in love) is a little... difficult. Tugger still has problems with Munku lying to him about all that being Rumpus Cat and his hidden husband Macavity. Macavity has a problem with Tugger's attitude and uses words to cut deep and hard. Mistoffelees and Munkustrap try to be understanding to each other, but it's not easy for any of them. Shyny feels guilty and AlmonDisco has a time of his life.)
