I've got his nose!! XD

You say you have his nose... but can you truly be sure of it?

What if he has yours

[munkustrap-pillow]

No one will know.

Munkustrap Pillow is here to protect you.

[tumblepounce]

You have inspired me.

I am currently cross-stitching a Munkustrap Pillow™ of my own.

(And I have the pattern if anyone else is interested)

Well color me terrified- I mean interested!

I would love to see your own Munkustrap Pillow even though adding more to the world can only spell certain doom for us all

(seriously though I would love to see the pattern if you're willing to share!)

[tumblepounce]

Truly you are incredibly taltened

So much so that apparently I can't spell talented I am just so flabbergasted that I am here to witness the creation of Munkustrap Pillow 2, the sequel

And you're cross stitching it you absolutely wonderful creative person, the dedication involved is ludicrous

Good luck and please feel free to keep updating with your progress!

The chart is going to keep me up at night

Updates?

Been spending most of the fall in a quiet tranquility. The pillow and I had a truce. Things were going well. Not much to report.

Until last night when I got up for some water and LOOK WHO WAS WAITING FOR ME IN THE KITCHEN

Worst thing about this is I have NO idea how long he's been there waiting to judge my night refreshment habits.

The Munkustrap Pillow

So I got back into Cats the Musical and dragged my fiance into it, which resulted in him gifting me this one of a kind, absolutely terrifying pillow of Munkustrap. The eyes follow you around the room.

Now don’t get me wrong, Munkustrap is one of my favorites and I think the makeup is beautiful, but this face… it has seen things.

There’s really no good place to put this where you aren’t feeling judged.

So naturally we take turns putting it places where the other least expects it and wait for the inevitable discovery.

Sweet dreams everyone!

Now it has become a saga:

ASK ME AND BECOME A PILLOW

Truly this is the greatest blog in existence and I refuse to believe otherwise.

Please take this crown as a symbol of... well I'm not sure but I feel you deserve it.

The world needs to know about this underappreciated marvel. Munkustrap Pillow is there to protect you.

POV:

You wake up in the middle of the night mouth dryer than the desert. Despite not wanting to leave your warm and cozy alcove, you must go forth for moisture. Cold, tired, and alone, you make the trek to your kitchen where you sloppily pour yourself a glass of that good ol’ life-saving liquid. You down it and revel in your success. You march back like a proud little soldier, but then you see it-

You KNOW it’s not the sleep deprivation because that has worn off now. You are frozen, a new adrenaline in your veins. You thought you were the brave soldier boy, but now you’ve been put in your place by one unblinking dark eye. It peers at you from your closet. The one you closed definitely last night.

You’re now under threat- you’re at a disadvantage. It doesn’t move, always watching, and you? What could you do? In a last desperate attempt to not go out like a coward, you surge forward and in one swoop you throw it’s hide-away open and seize it by it’s mocking face. It flies across the room at your brazen spirit, and now, naked to your eye, you view your new foe on equal ground:

That fucking Munkustrap pillow from that one tumblr post you saw last night.

But the real question is

How did it get in your closet?

[tumblepounce]

Well this is a terrifyingly accurate description of what it’s like to live with this thing. Are you okay? Do you need a hug?

Do you need a Munkustrap pillow?

[tumblepounce]

How's the Munkstrap pillow?

You know what Anon I want to thank you for asking because boy howdy he's just doing great. And by great I mean he's loose in the basement and there's no way I can do my laundry ever again.

He is machine washable but it'll never happen because I am never ever going down there ever again.

[tumblepounce]

Any updates on the Munkustrap Pillow?

Ah yes, that cursed abomination that lives in my house

I couldn't find it for a while but then glanced over at the couch and had a near death experience

[tumblepounce]

Hi, I really really really love your fics. Not a massive Tumblepounce shipper (I discovered you because of your Tuggoffelees Catalyst - and it's still ranked in my top 10 of Tuggoffelees fics I've ever read) but I think you write really well and that you're just generally a great person. Also, I would kill for the Munkustrap pillow (though there is a possibility the victim is myself).

Aw thank you very much! I haven't had much time to write lately but I'm still planning on updating stuff when I can, so keep an eye out for new things! Also you calling me a great person just made my evening, I really appreciate it. :3

Maybe writing a sequel to Catalyst right now but nothing promised shhhhhh

Munkustrap Pillow is still as unsettling as ever despite my attempts to pretty it up with my wedding dress. Not quite the best look for him but I'll keep trying!

my opera browser puts sometimes the last image i saw in my most visited sites and look at thE TUMBLR IMAGE

HE IS WATCHING

[tumblepounce]

Ok so last night the Munkustrap Pillow just BLEW UP and I want to thank you all who are reblogging and liking it and stuff but… why? What’s different about last night?

Also this is where I found the pillow this morning so the saga continues

I was like, “Why is the light on?” and creaked the door open to find him staring at me so early in the morning. I guess I’m thankful he wasn’t in the shower….

Munkustrap Pillow Part 4

Yes, much to my surprise and everyone else’s, the saga continues. Today I started scraping the ice off my car, as you do, and then… hang on….

NOT IN THE CAR

He’s just sitting there, staring at me, judging my driving choices.

How I didn’t see the pillow sitting there when I first got in the car is beyond me, I clearly need glasses or something. Fiance is getting too good at these hiding spaces. I need to sleep with my car keys from now on.

If you also don’t want to sleep here are other places the pillow has shown up:

Munkustrap Pillow Part 3

Woke up this morning, did my breakfast thing, then went to sit in my favorite chair and found this waiting for me:

Nearly gave me a heart attack. So much judgment so early in the morning.

Anyways, the pillow has been migrating around the house since I was gifted this wonderful item. I left this one for my fiance to find when he went upstairs for bed:

And then he moved it further up and left it in a more unsettling position:

Not even the cats are safe. I went to look for Vivian (she likes to sleep in blanket forts) and found her just as disturbed as I was:

And last (but definitely not least), I went to feed the cats and found the pillow waiting for me behind the dishwasher. The reflection is haunting.

Anyways, happy February!

This isn’t the beginning or the end of these shenanigans:

More terrifying Munkustrap gifts

Right, so I mentioned that the Munkustrap pillow was a gift from my fiance after I made him watch Cats the Musical a lot. Not long after introducing him to Cats it was my birthday and I was gifted the magnificent pillow that haunts my every waking moment.

I forgot to mention that he gave me some other Cats themed gifts….

Truly I underestimated my fiance’s limitless creativity and devotion to my obsession. The five magnets are of my top five favorite Cats guys (can’t have just one). The white paper with Munk’s face is a stack of post it notes. The collage of disturbing Munk faces with the signature quote “Are You Blind When You’re Born?” is a plaque. It now sits next to my bed so every morning I can look at it and question everything. There are no family photos in this house, just disturbing pictures of handsome cat men.

These were all created on Shutterfly I think. I tried not to ask too many questions. While I commend my fiance’s devotion to taking the time to screen shot every single wonderful Munkustrap face moment from the 1998 DVD, I wonder if maybe I created a monster. Guess that’s true love!

Munkustrap Pillow Part 2

Alright so I was out doing some yard work in the backyard by myself and felt like I was being watched so I looked around and-

Wait.

NO.
