Alucard knew Millicent had feline abilities, feline appendages and even feline DNA but he honestly didn't know to what extent her cat-ness went.
Does she sleep a lot? Does she chase things? Does she love to sunbathe?
That was the big one he had been pondering for months. Ever since the human felidae hybrid had been accepted into the Hellsings Organization, he'd been observing her constantly. Integra gave the okay for him to interact with her directly after she was more physically and mentally rehabilitated. Millicent seemed more than okay with his jabbing though and she jabbed right back too. She was pretty feisty and he loved it.
But as he watched he noticed that she did indeed pick up on some cat-like behavior but the purring was something he had yet to see.
Alucard at first was just going to ask her outright if she could purr but he was always more of a hands-on learner. Phasing through the walls to her room, he tries to get her by surprise. He had no plan but honestly he figured he would just pet her like he would an actual cat and see if it worked.
Millicent sat on the edge of her bed reading, while the No Life King silently creeps up behind her before gently placing a large gloved hand on her head.
Millicent is startled and makes a strange, "MEW!" sound of fright, her tail puffing up and ears straight up and alert. Once she heard the familiar deep voice though, she calmed right down.
"Good evening pussycat, hope you don't mind the visit," he teased while giving a large and amused fanged grin.
"Damn it Herr, don't sneak up on me like that! Seriously you made me ruin my book!," it was indeed ruined, her claws ripped off some of the pages. No matter though, she can just get a new one, The Count still had an objective on his mind.
"I'll only be here a moment, there's something I need to find out from you"
"Oh, well what would that be?"
At that, and once he's actually sitting comfortably on her bed, he begins to pet her. She made a sound of both confusion and protest before mewling and then....no purr still.
Alucard figures he needs to scratch a certain way so he then scratches lightly the sensitive area behind her left ear(he's sitting on her left) she leans into his hand and her eyes are almost completely closed. Oh she's enjoying this, this is nice. Her tail is flicking in the air happily.
Then he feels it, a rumbling or vibrating sensation going up his fingertips. She can indeed purr! It's also pleasantly adorable.
Finding his answer, he isn't quite ready to return to his chambers, so he continues to scratch when she moves her head and lays it on his lap, pawing a bit, basically asking for him to keep petting.
Now Alucard has seen a lot in his life, and after a few centuries there wasn't much to move him. This though...this almost made him coo audibly at just how pure and cute it was. He gladly kept petting and scratching causing her to purr even louder, him feeling the vibrations on his thigh.
They both sat contently like that a while longer before Millicent was all but asleep. Alucard slowly and gently moves her so her head is resting on a pillow and not his thigh, he wouldn't have minded being her pillow but the actual pillows were far more comfier than his thighs (though she may beg to differ, and he'll never know that). Snuggling into them more, still purring up a storm, he chuckled.
"Goodnight little pussycat," he said, phasing back through the walls to his own room.
