This blog is for me to indulge in fandoms and characters I like, as well as post about my self-inserts and OCs, and reader-inserts for these fandoms. I also reblog astrology posts.
If you don't like that, then this isn't the blog and content for you.
List of my Self-Inserts and OCs
Genshin Impact OC - Vesper
isekaied into the fandom but it's an omega verse setting
male | he/him | average height
beta (lavender scent)
has a dendro vision
wants more than anything to find out how and why he was isekaied into Teyvat

She gets her first pokemon at the same time as Hop and Gloria get their starter pokemon. Gloria chooses scorbunny, Hop chooses grookey, and Spider chooses sobble. She names her sobble James Pond.
Spider goes on a pokemon journey and even enrolls in the gym challenge but after defeating Nessa at the water type gym, Nessa offers Spider to join her gym as a water type trainer specialist and she accepts, ditching the gym challenge entirely.
Spider helps Nessa teach classes on how to train water type pokemon with the other gym trainers, and to clean and prepare the gym for matches for the gym challenge and for those who want to book the gym for practice when it's not the gym challenge season
She still hangs out with Gloria and Hop on occasion, supporting both their careers as Champion and aspiring Professor
Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rosie Ripley
Rosie was reborn as a demigod daughter of the brittonic god Triadmus (god of abundance) and a Lily Ripley (a mortal, legacy of the Brittonic God of Iaonus)
Rosie's great-grandmother on her mum's side is a demigod daughter of Iaonus. Her mother's mortal family line has plant/nature powers (although weaker with each generation). This plant power in Rosie was boosted by the powers she got from her deity father, Triadmus which also allow her to power up the powers/abilities of other beings
Rosie has Botankinesis (power to control plants) and support-based power/energy boosts
Rosie was born in Glastonbury England, and was raised among the "normal" English folk but also visited settlements and villages filled with Brittonic, Irish and Welsh demigods, legacies and druids to learn more about her roots among the non-human side and learn how to defend herself from monsters and non-human beings tied to this mythos who might hurt her or take advantage of her
At the request of a local druid who forsaw that a legacy of of Brittonic god was in need of help, Lily and Rosie move to NYC to find this troubled legacy who turns out to be none other than Percy Jackson.
Rosie hates the whole process, and hates how demigods are treated in CHB by the Greek Deities, and their system.
She finds Percy shortly after the events of the Labyrinth, when Percy is feeling the most pressure and frustration with the Gods and for how Annabeth treats him, and how he hardly sees Grover anymore
Rosie uses this time to befriend Percy and when she accidentally comes across him doing a mission for CHB, she helps him out and even saves him from being killed by an enemy demigod. At that point she has to reveal to him that she's a Brittonic demigod to help him calm down and prove she isn't a monster in disguise
Once Percy calms down, Rosie helps him out in small ways and even teaches him some useful techniques and practices from the Brittonic settlements to help him survive.
When Percy comments; "It's nice to finally have someone around to explain things." Rosie takes the bait to alienate Percy from CHB and the Greek side by saying; "Well yeah, how else are you going to survive if no-one teaches you what to do?" It gets Percy thinking, and starts the process of getting him to see CHB and Annabeth differently.
Lily also met Sally by complete co-incidence, and since of Sally dating Paul she starts dating Lily. Both parents inform them that they're dating, and Rosie is worried but also sees it as a huge advantage to getting Percy away from CHB and the Greek side (who she sees as abusers because of how they treat him, and other greek demigods)
At the end of Heroes of Olympus (Lily and Rosie helped in the final battle instead of Paul), Lily and Rosie are not impressed with what happened to Greek Demigods (and Lily has caught on that Percy is the one that Rosie was meant to find), and Lily offers to marry Sally and bring her and Percy to England with her and Rosie so they can get a chance to really live and survive. Sally agrees and marries Lily
Shortly after Lily and Sally marry, Hera kidnaps Percy and the plan for them all to move to England is put on hold.
When the business with Gaia is over, Percy is filled in on the plan to move to England (which he's fine with because the people he's loyal to want to leave and he has no other ties to the USA and CHB besides them anymore other than Grover). They all move to England, and Percy and Sally finally gets the counselling they need to deal with the past abuse they suffered from Gabe
Percy, Sally, Rosie and Lily settle in Glastonbury with the rest of Lily's family (getting a warm welcome from Lily's family), and get to live a long, happy life in the UK.
Percy eventually gets a boyfriend, a blonde boy who is able to see through the mist (or veil as the Brittonic demigods call it) and trains to be a druid so he can keep Percy safe too. They eventually marry when they're both 25. Percy rarely hears from Poseidon after leaving the USA and it hurts but he manages and continues to thrive. He and his boyfriend eventually adopt a daughter together, one who happens to have the same sea green eyes as Percy (a potential half-sister of his)
Rosie finds a girlfriend that's a Brittonic demigod, and they marry when they're in their early 30s and adopt lots of cats, and spoil Percy's adopted daughter like the cool aunts they are
Imagine Dan Heng being utterly terrified for his rebirth, solely because he fears not being able to find you in the next life.
Or even worse. What if in his next life, he's just as stubborn as he is now? Wanting nothing to do with anything from his previous life, wanting nothing to do with you?
Just the thought makes him sick to his stomach, along with the realization at just how much of a lack of control he'll one day have over his life.
So, he holds you tighter at night, nuzzling into you so hard it almost aches. You know something is wrong, but until he confesses his greatest fears, you'll be right there next to him.
Characters: Mydei, Anaxa, Phainon, Cipher, and Aglaea
Mydeimos
🍷 Is a Somali breed.
🍷 Mydei is an aloof and reserved cat that prefers to be left alone. He’s not a lap cat that you can cuddle and pick up whenever you please, at least, not until you spend enough time earning his trust. Over time, he learns to tolerate your desire to touch him, but most other people aren’t so privileged. Unless they’re children, that is. Mydei is surprisingly tolerant and gentle towards kids. Even if they tug on his tail or fur, he never lashes out at them.
🍷 He's also very stubborn. During the first few months of your cohabitation, Mydei would resist and fight back whenever you tried to get him to do something he didn’t want to, such as bathing and brushing. He swatted at you when you pushed your luck, but you noted that he never used his claws on you or even tried to bite. Despite being feisty, he knew not to hurt you. Once he warmed up to you, Mydei became tolerant of you bathing and grooming him even if he didn’t like it. He may flick his tail and look all brooding, but he stays well-behaved during the process.
🍷 Prefers hiding away somewhere high up. Mydei likes to sit on top of the fridge or wardrobe where he’s unlikely to be bothered. Those are his favourite hiding spots whenever you have guests over.
🍷 Mydei is an energetic cat that needs daily exercise and play to burn the excess energy. He gets restless staying cooped up at home with little stimulation and could tear up your furniture and curtains trying to entertain himself. Aside from playing chase with a laser and string, you found that the most effective method was to let Mydei outside where he could run around unhindered.
🍷 Letting him roam outside churned out some interesting results. Despite being a reserved cat, Mydei garnered a large following. Cats from all over the neighbourhood started following him around as if he were their leader. When you opened the door to let Mydei back home, you’d sometimes spot a group of 10 or more cats sitting not too far away before going their separate ways once Mydei disappeared inside. You’d also spot them following him around the neighbourhood, facing off against other strays or engaging in play.
🍷 Aside from human children, Mydei is also gentle with kittens. You discovered him playing with a couple of stray kittens once. He let the little ones bite and hop all over him and even played chase with them.
🍷 Mydei is protective of you and comes running when he senses you’re in distress. There’s a spider you’re afraid of? He kills it for you. There’s a person making you uncomfortable? He sits next to you and growls at them with his tail whipping in warning until they leave. He will even fight off a dog if it gets too aggressive towards you. You’re his most trusted and beloved owner, so he sees it as his duty to protect you. For this reason, he often stays in the same room as you when you sleep, almost as if watching over you.
🍷 Likes to watch you cook. When he hears you working in the kitchen, Mydei will almost always join you and sit somewhere nearby, watching you cook or bake with interest. Will jump on the counter to investigate what you’re making (and get his fur in the food). He likes it when you give him ingredients to sniff and sample. You discovered he’s fond of creamy foods and pomegranate, though you only give them to him in moderation.
🍷 You’ve heard of cats having nine lives, but you swear Mydei has an infinite amount of them. You’ve lost count of the number of times your heart has stopped seeing Mydei fight dogs, fall out of trees, and almost getting hit by a car. Miraculously, he always came out in once piece with nothing more than a few scratches. In fact, Mydei’s health in general is very good. The only times you’ve had to take him to the vet was for shots despite all the precarious situations he’s gotten himself into.
Anaxagoras
🌿 A Russian Blue.
🌿 Shortly after acquiring Anaxa as a kitten, you quickly discovered just how intelligent he was. He didn’t like being separated from his mother and siblings and so became an escape artist in an attempt to go back to his original home. At first, he hid near the front door and waited until you opened it to quickly dart outside. Once you became vigilant and careful about opening the front door, he got crafty. He figured out how to turn doorhandles and used open windows to escape even if they were a few floors up. He got injured doing so, so you had to lock all your windows.
🌿 After a lot of grief, Anaxa eventually accepted his fate of being your new pet and stopped trying to run away. However, he refused to be a cuddly lap cat for you. He doesn’t ask for or give affection, he shies away when you try to pet him and wriggles out of your hold when you try to pick him up. If you pester him too much, he’ll warn you to back off my flicking his tail and hissing. Scratching is his last resort, but he’ll do it if you bother him enough.
🌿 When you’re not forcing your affection onto him, Anaxa can be a surprisingly fun cat to have. His high intelligence enables him to solve complex puzzles. He’s fond of those cat puzzles that require him to solve them to get a treat. He also likes being given obstacle courses to cross, such a needing to cross a hallway covered in string or balloons. Though he’s less fond of obstacles that require him to jump and crawls under them if he can. He likes being challenged since it keeps him mentally stimulated. If he gets bored, Anaxa will play with the faucet, light switches, and get himself into your cupboards and drawers to explore, otherwise he’ll become moody from boredom. You have to regularly entertain him.
🌿 Though it may seem like Anaxa doesn’t like you, that’s not true. Just because he doesn’t let you pet him doesn’t mean he isn’t fond of you. He’s actually very in-tune with your emotions and comforts you when you’re sad or hurting. When you cry, he approaches you and lays on your chest or lets you hold him and cry into his fur without protest. It’s one of the few times when you can pet him without him shying away. He also senses when you’re on your period and comes to lay on your abdomen to soothe your cramping.
🌿 You swear that Anaxa understands every word you say. When you talk to him, his body and expression change in response to what you’re saying, such as flattening his ears when you scold him or perking his tail when you praise him. He also meows back at you as if continuing the conversation. His meows get particularly angry when you try to bathe him or when you come home late.
🌿 Anaxa’s favourite toy is a dromas plushie that he usually keeps in his cat bed and cuddles with to sleep. He also likes wearing the dromas catsuit you bought him. It’s the only outfit he doesn’t try to tear to shreds but actually struts around the house in.
🌿 Due to his high entertainment requirement, you chose to let Anaxa roam outside despite his many attempts to flee as a kitten. To your relief, he didn’t attempt to flee but returned home whenever he was done exploring for the day. However, he tends to come home looking disheveled and sometimes even bleeding. You soon find out that he gets into fights with the neighbourhood cats. For whatever reason, they don’t like Anaxa. Your beloved kitty also eats plants he’s not supposed to, so you had to rush him to the vet a few times.
🌿 During one of his many excursions outdoors, Anaxa injured his eye. You don’t know how it happened, but you were very distraught when you brough him to the vet and were told the eye would have to be removed. You thought about preventing him from going out after that, but Anaxa would ask to be let out and turn into an escape artist again when you refused, so it was easier to just let him and monitor when he went out. Thankfully he never got that injured again.
🌿 Despite his unpopularity with the neighbourhood cats, you were pleased to see him get along with a couple younger cats. Hyacine, Castorice, and Phainon sometimes followed Anaxa like kittens following their mother and he tolerated them well. You even caught him grooming one of them. There is also Calypso, a stray that spends a lot of time with Anaxa doing whatever dangerous hijinks he gets up to. You’re not sure about the blind cat Aglaea, though her owner told you she and Anaxa got along well after you left Anaxa in their care for a couple of days.
Phainon
☀️ Is a Turkish Angora.
☀️ Phainon is a playful and energetic cat. He loves it when you play with him, be it with a laser or a mouse toy. He even plays fetch and will strut over to you looking all smug when he manages to catch the toy you threw in midair. Phainon likes your attention in general and is happy to let you pet and cuddle him. He purrs when you scratch under his chin and leans into your hand when you pet him.
☀️ He may seem like the perfect cat with a sweet and affectionate temperament, but in truth, Phainon is a mess. He hates being left alone for long periods of time and struggles being on his own when you’re away for most of the day. Your neighbour reported that they heard Phainon pitifully wailing for hours until your arrival. In addition, Phainon turns your house upside down when left alone for too long. Items are knocked off shelves, the curtains are torn up in places where he paws at the windows, and there’s an overturned potted plant with its soil spilled all over the floor. Phainon doesn’t do it on purpose, but he panics and runs around the house in search of a way out to look for you.
☀️ When you do come home, Phainon is already waiting for you at the door and comes running to purr and rub against your legs before you even get your shoes off. He’s happy to have you home but you catch him following you around the house as if he’s worried you’ll disappear again. You’re doing laundry? Phainon comes with and watches you load the washing machine. You’re sitting at your computer? Phainon will jump onto the desk and watch you do your thing before laying on your keyboard so you’ll pay attention to him. You’re taking a shower? Phainon is scratching at the door, begging you to let him in.
☀️ Because he gets lonely easily, you chose to let Phainon roam outside to keep himself entertained while you’re gone. This worked, and now you sometimes see him playing with a few animal friends he made in the neighbourhood. There’s the one-eyed cat Anaxa, the leonine Mydei, a pretty stray named Cyrene, and three small munchkin cats. Phainon even befriended a raccoon you often see digging in trash cans.
☀️ Phainon’s mischievous side comes out when left alone with Mydei. At first, you worried the two cats hated each other because they often fought but afterwards Phainon would come running back to you with his tail perked up, looking happy, so you figured out they were only playfighting. The two cats got up to all kinds of mischief, usually instigated by Phainon. You caught them zooming around your backyard like two energetic kittens, presumably engaged in a race or some other kind of game. One of them knocked over one of your potted plants so you gave them a verbal lashing. The cats had the decency to look guilty, and afterwards Phainon never engaged in such play in your backyard ever again.
☀️ Aside from playing with the neighbourhood cats, Phainon also likes to collect “gifts” for you. He comes home with a little something in his mouth and drops it at your feet. Most of the time it’s a leaf, a wrapper, or piece of dirty cloth. On rare occasions it’s a mouse or bird. It’s usually useless junk, though he once brought you a coin. Phainon always looks at you expectantly when giving you the “gift” and meows. You’re not sure what he’s trying to say, but he looks proud of himself, so you lack the heart to dispose of his presents (except the animal ones).
☀️ Phainon dislikes seeing you sad or sick. When you’re not feeling your best, he lays on your chest and purrs. He stays like that for at least an hour or until you feel like getting up.
☀️ Doesn’t enjoy taking baths. As soon as you place him in the water, Phainon tries to climb out of the tub but reluctantly stays when you gently force him back in. You can tell he hates the entire bathing process by his pitiful meowing, but otherwise he stays well-behaved for you. Just make sure to reward him with treats and affection afterwards.
Cifera
🪙 Bengal cat.
🪙 You swear Cipher is a magpie born in a cat’s body. She has a tendency to steal shiny things like glass marbles and sparkly Christmas ornaments, but the most worrisome is her penchant for jewelry and coins. You’ve had a lot of jewelry and coins go missing because you left them unattended only for Cipher to take advantage and squirrel them away.
🪙 Perhaps it’s because you got her as a stray, but Cipher is a free spirit that doesn’t like being cooped up at home. Try as you might to keep her indoors, she always finds some way to escape so you’ve given up and just let her go out as she pleases even if it means she doesn’t come home for several days. You then heard neighbourhood gossip about a cat stealing jewelry and other small trinkets, only to have your suspicions confirmed when Cipher comes home with someone else’s necklace in her mouth. No matter how much you try to discourage this bad habit of hers, you can never cure it, so you’re stuck apologizing to your neighbors and returning the stolen valuables.
🪙 Even your loved ones aren’t safe from Cipher’s thieving tendencies. One time you had a friend over with a sparkly hairclip in her hair. Cipher acted unusually affectionate towards your friend, rubbing up against her and purring in a way that had you feeling that something was up. Sure enough, as soon as your friend let down her guard and picked up Cipher, the cat lunged for the hairclip and tugged it out of your friend’s hair before running away. Since then, you warned everyone who comes to visit to not wear shiny things or risk them being stolen by your cat.
🪙 Aside from being a thief, Cipher is also a menace. For seemingly no reasons at all, she likes to knock items to the floor. While you’re having breakfast, she starts pawing at the mug on the table. You tell her “Cipher, no.” She looks at you, and as if saying “Cipher, yes.” with her eyes, knocks the mug to the floor, looking pleased with herself when it breaks. She runs away when you yell at her, but your reprimands never stop her from doing it again.
🪙 Cipher makes your life difficult in other little inconvenient ways. She hides your keys, steals your socks so you no longer have matching pairs, and raids your pantry. Every time you scold her, she rolls onto her back and looks at you with innocent, round eyes, that you no longer have the heart to be angry with her. Then, she steals the food on your plate when your guard is lowered.
🪙 You bought Cipher a collar with a bell so you can hear where she is in the house in case she’s up to no good. Though it alerts you to her presence, it’s not very effective because Cipher is simply too fast for you to stop. She’s like a bolt of lighting, there one moment and gone the next, so you struggle to catch her before she does something bad.
🪙 For all the bad that comes with owning Cipher, there are good things, as well. She’s very intelligent and good at learning tricks if you reward her with dried fish snacks. Can even learn tricks like playing dead and doing backflips.
🪙 She also regularly checks up on you. She strolls into whatever room you’re in to see how you’re doing. If she’s in a good mood, she’ll rub against your legs and ask for affection, bumping her head into your palm when you pet her.
🪙 At night, she likes to sleep curled up beside you. She’ll inevitably leave to do mischief in the middle of the night but always comes back to take another nap next to you. For all her disobedience, Cipher feels safest and at home with you.
🪙 While Cipher enjoys playing with feathered toys and felt mice, you discovered she likes chasing after jewelry and coins a lot more. You tied a coin to a piece of string once and used that as bait to play with her, and Cipher turned into an expert hunter. She closely chased after that coin, zooming across the room at the speed of light and successfully capturing it every time, no matter how quickly you tried to yank it away from her.
Aglaea
🧵 Doll faced Persian (aka the traditional Persian without smushed face).
🧵 Aglaea is the most gorgeous cat you’ve ever seen. She looks flawless in every photo you take of her, with her peculiar green eyes and golden fur and pretty muzzle. She could easily win cat beauty contests if you choose to sign her up for any.
🧵 When you first got her, Aglaea had perfectly functioning eyes, but a disease made her lose her eyesight. However, her blindness doesn’t prevent her from living her life. It took her some time to get used to being unable to see, but Aglaea is still capable of navigating your house and gracefully jumping onto furniture. All in all, she adapted to life without sight fairly well.
🧵 Before she lost her eyesight, Aglaea liked to play with string and yarn. She still plays with a ball of yarn even with her disability, but not as much as she used to.
🧵 One of her favorite activities is being groomed. Aglaea loves it when you comb out her fur. She turns into a purring machine and kneads with her front paws when you brush her and even leans into the brush when you brush her cheeks. As much as she loves a good brush, her favorite part of a groom is the bath. Aglaea is probably the only cat that loves to just sit and soak in the warm water. You have zero problems bathing her because she stays nice and still while you shampoo and rinse her. You would even say she seems reluctant to leave the tub when you take her out.
🧵 She also enjoys wearing fashionable clothes, like little suits and dresses, and never kicks up a fuss about being made to wear uncomfortable suits. If anything, she looks like she enjoys dressing up. Aglaea looks regal in practically anything you put on her, but she looks especially stunning when wearing sparkly things like a diamond-studded collar. Your cat could be a cat model, honestly.
🧵 Overall, Aglaea is a well-behaved cat. She has a calm temperament, doesn’t kick up a fuss when you groom her, and doesn’t misbehave or get into trouble at all. You’ve never had to scold her for anything. Truly, she’s the best cat a person could ask for.
🧵 You rarely see Aglaea get agitated, but the neighbor’s cat Anaxa seems to effortlessly rile her up. Whether she’d smell him outside the window or hear his yowling, her tail would start whipping in annoyance. When Anaxa spots her, his fur would stand on end and he’d hiss at her. When Anaxa’s owner asked you to look after him while they were gone for a few days, you were worried he and Aglaea would tear each other to shreds, but to your surprise, they ended up getting along. It took a bit of time, but once they stopped seeing each other as enemies they seemed to enjoy one another’s company.
🧵 Aside from Anaxa, Aglaea also gets along with three munchkin cats: Trianne, Trinnon, and Tribbie. The three little cats often come over to play with Aglaea, and though Aglaea can’t play intensively due to her disability, she still grooms them and enjoys their company.
🧵 Aglaea also gets along well with the younger cat Cifera, better known as Cipher or "Thieving Rascal" among the neighborhood. Aglaea had encountered Cipher as a kitten and took her under her wing, grooming and feeding the stray until you managed to find her a good home, though not before Cipher had stolen some accessories you kept for Aglaea. Cipher sometimes comes by to check on Aglaea and you let the two cats hang out.
🧵 Despite her calm temperament, you learned that Aglaea can also be very fierce and protective. She’s territorial by nature and dislikes it when strangers come into your home. You have to introduce new people to her or else she will act wary and see them as a threat. If she senses that someone is making you uncomfortable or is a threat to you, she will hiss and growl at them to back off. If they don’t, she won’t hesitate to attack them. Aglaea is protective of that which she holds dear.

Pain aches from behind Dan Heng’s eyes, and he rubs them tiredly as they throb once again. The glowing blue light emitted from his computer makes his eyes strain and squint, but he's far too used to staying up to sort the data bank. A sharp jab pierces his forehead as a reminder of how long he’s been awake.
Dan Heng forces himself to take another sip of Himeko’s coffee and continues to click and clack at his screen. The rustle of fabric reminds him that you were staying over tonight, and he looks over his shoulder to see if he was keeping you awake.
You squint and groggily cover your eyes from the light of his computer, lifting your head slightly to meet him.
“You said you would sleep early tonight…”
Dan Heng swivels his chair to look at you while tilting his laptop downwards.
“I know, I’m sorry. I.. I was distracting myself with work,” he admits quietly, rubbing his temple.
You close your eyes and mumble, “I’m cold without you, Dannie.”
He knows that’s a lie, but smiles anyway. The heat radiating from the data servers was more than enough to keep one person warm.
“Coming, coming.” He crawls under your shared blanket and lays on his arm to watch you nuzzle into his side.
Dan Heng can’t (and doesn’t want to) fall asleep. His eyes can’t help but stare at the bouncing water underneath the floor panels as another form of distraction. The light hurts his eyes but he can’t look away. He was about to reach out for one of the books that he kept by his bedside before you spoke quietly.
“I thought you said the nightmares got better…”
He sighs.
“I thought they did…”
He trails off, too exhausted to think further. You poke his side teasingly.
“You need to take better care of yourself, Mr. Dan Heng. Especially after you fuss over my health.”
He cracks a weary smile.
“I’ll try to. For you.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll protect you from your nightmares tonight.”
You respond playfully but then get serious.
“And I’ll always be here when you wake up.”
He wraps his arms around you and breathes in the scent of your shampoo. Exhaustion takes over after days of improper rest and his eyelids close shut.
Characters: Kaveh, Alhaitham, Venti, Wanderer, Itto, and Dainsleif
Kaveh:
🍷 Is a Siberian breed.
🍷 When you first brought him home, Kaveh took a while to warm up to you. He was wary of your intentions and reluctant to let you touch him. With some patience and gentleness, you eventually melted the golden feline’s heart, and he became inseparable from you. Wherever you go in the house, he follows, or at the very least checks on you to know where you are.
🍷 Kaveh is very sensitive to your emotional state. If you’re feeling depressed, he likes to lay on your chest and purr until you feel better. When you cry, he’s always by your side, rubbing his cheeks against you and licking at your face as if trying to wipe them away. He doesn’t leave your side until he’s sure you’re alright.
🍷 Due to your work/school, Kaveh is used to you coming and going at certain times as a part of your daily routine. However, if you come home later than usual, expect to have a grumpy cat on your hands. He will angrily meow at you non-stop and flick his tail in annoyance. He doesn’t like being alone, and he lets you have a piece of his mind if you leave him alone for long periods of time. He’ll sulk unless you coax him with some treats and gentle pats. Spending some time grooming or playing with him usually calms him down afterward.
🍷 Is very good with having guests over. Kaveh is a sociable cat and always greets anyone that comes through the door and gives them a sniff to learn who they are. He’s open to being petted by others but prefers to sit on your lap as opposed to your friends or family.
🍷 He’s a gorgeous cat but his coat is high maintenance. Because it’s so thick and long, he doesn’t tolerate the heat well. He requires regular brushing and grooming to keep his coat healthy. It’s a good thing he enjoys being petted because it makes grooming much easier. He tends to lean into your touch or the hairbrush when you stroke his body and purrs a lot throughout the entire process. He loves being pampered.
🍷 Kaveh likes to sleep on your bed, pressed up against you or lying on your chest. You got him a cat bed, but Kaveh still prefers to sleep right next to you in your bed.
🍷 He’s generally very affectionate. He both loves to give you affection and receive it. You’re not sure how well Kaveh understands what you say, but he always looks very smug whenever you praise him and give him scritches. He’ll headbutt you, asking for more head pats and affection.
🍷 You often find him staring out the window with rapture. You’re not sure what captivates his attention so much—maybe the sunset, the rainbow after the rain, or perhaps the flowers that bloom right outside your window. He’s also strangely attracted to lightning. Rather than get scared and hide, he sits by the window and stares out at the stormy skies.
Alhaitham:
🎧 Is a Russian blue.
🎧 Alhaitham is the quietest cat you’ve ever met. Hearing him meow or make any kind of vocal sound is rare. He’s also very introverted and prefers to spend time alone, hidden in some cozy nook or cranny.
🎧 He’s also very stubborn and smart. If you want to put a silly little cat costume on him for laughs, you can forget it because Alhaitham will give you the slip every time without fail. Rather than try to chase and play hide-and-seek with him, it’s much easier to abandon the idea altogether. If he doesn’t want something done to him, you won’t be able to force him.
🎧 As mentioned earlier, he’s a very smart cat. Alhaitham figured out how to open doors on his own, and is even able to open the fridge all by himself. It’s a bit annoying because he sometimes uses his abilities to sneak a tasty little something from the fridge, but his intelligence is truly a marvel. When you speak to him, Alhaitham’s expressions and body language change in response to your words, almost as if he understands exactly what you’re saying and is reacting to it.
🎧 Most of your friends and family have only caught glimpses of him when they visit. That’s because Alhaitham dislikes having guests over, and tends to hide from them. He only comes out once they leave.
🎧 He’s not a social cat in general and likes to keep his distance even from you. He’s not a lap cat, and will jump off and leave if you try to force him to lay on your lap. When he does feel like being social, Alhaitham will lay beside you if you’re reading a book, or perch on your shoulder to observe what you’re doing.
🎧 Is a very lazy cat, so you frequently find him taking naps while lying in a warm spot of sunshine. If you disturb his nap by attempting to pet or poke him, he gives you a displeased look and flicks his tail in annoyance. He’s very grumpy when his sleep is ruined.
🎧 Alhaitham never listens to strangers but does listen to you. If you call him over, he will come to you. He also tolerates your touch, and lets you squeeze and pet him without biting or scratching you. He looks unhappy about it, but lets you do as you please. However, if you ruin his attempts to leave once he’s had enough of your affection, he will take his revenge. That cup that’s sitting near the edge of the table? Yeah, he’s gonna push that off and stare at you without remorse while it crashes to the ground.
Itto:
🐂 A Maine Coon.
🐂 Itto is not meant for a house cat lifestyle. Despite your best attempts to keep him indoors, the rascal always manages to slip out somehow and venture into the great outdoors. His yearning to explore the greater world is too strong for you to contain, so you have to make peace with the fact he’ll spend most of his time roaming outside. On the bright side, Itto always comes home to you without fail, looking happy to see you and bask in your affection again.
🐂 He made friends with some stray cats in the area, so you have a small group of them regularly come to your porch and meow until you give them some food. It’s a bit costly to feed so many mouths, but watching the cats play together or rub against your legs while purring affectionately convinces you it’s worth it.
🐂 Since Itto spends so much time outside, he tends to come home dirty and matted. He needs to be bathed to stay clean, but good luck getting him in the bath. He screams and yowls bloody murder every time you try to wash him, to the point that your neighbors knock on your door to ask what’s going on. Thankfully, they grow accustomed to Itto’s bathtime opera and stop pestering you about it.
🐂 Brushing Itto’s fur also proves a challenge because he just can’t sit still. The little guy has too much energy to keep contained, so he usually ends up looking disheveled.
🐂 Itto is also a giant glutton. He’s capable of eating a week’s worth of cat food in just 3-4 days, yet somehow doesn’t gain weight. It’s expensive to keep him fed. If you try to put him on a diet, he will be very vocal in his complaints and even steal food from your plate.
🐂 He’s a troublemaker, but he’s incredibly loyal to you. If you’re feeling down, he’ll get you to play with him to take your mind off your troubles. If that doesn’t work, he’ll become more affectionate and rub up against you to get you to pet him and relieve stress. He never abandons you if you’re not feeling your best.
Wanderer:
☔️ Is a domestic shorthaired tuxedo cat.
☔️ Was very hostile and cold towards you when you first got him. He was averse to touch, and often hissed and glared at you for the first few months of your joint cohabitation. Over time, when he was sure you meant him no harm, Wanderer relaxed in your presence and wasn’t so hostile towards you anymore. He still glares daggers at any guests you may have over, but with you, he’s calmer and more affectionate.
☔️ Wanderer is a bit of a loner and tends to slink off on his own to whatever corner of the house he calls his own. When guests are over, he likes to sit in an elevated spot (top of the closet, fridge, or shelf) and observe everyone from above. He does this for two reasons: firstly to discourage people from touching him, and secondly to keep an eye on the people around you.
☔️ If there’s someone he doesn’t like, Wanderer will make it very apparent. That unfortunate guest of yours will get a warning growl to stay away from you. If the guest doesn’t comply, Wanderer could even go as far as scratching the person. It’s not good behaviour on his part, but Wanderer has his reasons. You’ve come to learn that he’s very good at picking out individuals who have bad intentions towards you or are just overall not good people.
☔️ He's a bit of a grumpy cat. He’ll let out noises of discontent if you pick him up to cuddle him or groom him, but he’s just all bark and no bite (but only with you). As unhappy as he’ll look, he’ll tolerate whatever it is you want to do to him. Unless it’s dressing him in silly costumes. Then you’ll get a harmless swat to your face (he makes sure to keep his claws retracted) and won’t see him for the rest of the day. Wanderer won’t come out even when you call for him. No silly costumes, please.
☔️ For all his grouchy attitude, he still loves you. He wakes you up on time if you sleep through your alarm, badgers you if you forget to take your meds, and purrs on your chest when you feel sad. He’s very intelligent for a cat.
☔️ Is very picky about food. He won’t eat just anything you give him. Unfortunately for you, the only cat food brand he’s willing to eat is very expensive. He’s a very spoiled cat.
☔️ Hates bathing. Wanderer tolerates brushing and nail trimming, but God forbid you try to put him in the bath. He will meow angrily and try to run, so it’s always an ordeal to hold him still long enough to bathe him. Sends you a scathing look if you laugh at how skinny he looks once his fur is matted to his body, making him look several sizes smaller. If you laugh, he’ll give you the cold shoulder afterward, so you won’t see him for a few days.
☔️ Isn’t into playing with cat toys, but he does hunt in his spare time. He brought you birds and mice a few times as a ‘gift’. He genuinely meant well, so was a bit irritated that you threw his gifts away.
Venti:
🍃 A munchkin cat.
🍃 Venti is a cat that cannot be tamed. He clearly understands your commands because he sometimes complies with them when he feels like it, but most of the time he prefers to do his own thing. This includes venturing out into the great outdoors. Venti is not content staying cooped up at home, and you’ve long since learned to just let him go out when he wants. He’ll find a way to escape one way or the other. Besides, he still comes home, so it’s not like he doesn’t like living with you.
🍃 Venti seems to have an appreciation for music. He becomes energized whenever you play music, no matter what genre the song may be. He becomes more playful, so you often find yourself sidetracked playing with the cat instead of doing your work. If you can’t play with him, then Venti will zoom around the house like a cat on a sugar rush.
🍃 To your surprise, Venti also likes to sing. Or at least, you think the caterwauls he’s making are his attempts at singing along to some of the songs. It’s an amusing, albeit weird, sight.
🍃 Is generally not a lap cat, but he makes exceptions if he senses that you’re feeling down. During such moments, he becomes more subdued and nuzzles into your side, allowing you to pet him. His gentle purring and soft body usually help you feel better. If not, then he’ll stick to you like glue and follow you around the house to keep you company. It will be one of the few times when Venti sleeps next to you at night since he usually goes off on his own during that time. It’s obvious that he worries about your well-being.
🍃 Out of all the foods you let Venti try, you never expected him to like apples as much as he did. You swear he likes them more than the expensive cat treats you bought him. You trained him to do all kinds of tricks and even sit still for grooming in exchange for a few slices of apple (given as a treat).
🍃 He likes sleeping outside under the shade of the canopy, accompanied by a gentle breeze. You often catch him sleeping high up in a tree or a nook somewhere in the grass.
Dainsleif:
🌌 A Norwegian Forest cat.
🌌 You got Dainsleif from a shelter. He has a chronic illness that requires you to take him to the vet regularly for treatment, and some kind of scarring on his right side. The right side of his face and flank has matted, thinning fur, and you can only guess what happened to him before he ended up at the shelter. He was a very pitiful sight, which is why you brought him home. Under your care, Dainsleif lives the best life he can given his afflictions, and you’re even proud to say that aside from his mangled right side, the rest of his coat looks gorgeous.
🌌 Dainsleif is a relatively quiet and well-tempered cat. Though he’s shy and skittish around strangers, with you, he is more open. In private, his sweet temperament comes out. He often grooms you with his tongue as an act of affection and relishes in your gentle caresses when you pet or groom him in return. Watching his eyes close as he relaxes is a nice feeling since he usually has his guard up.
🌌 He’s not playful. Dainsleif is kind of serious for a cat. He dutifully waits for you at the door like a dog whenever you leave the house and greets you with a loud meow when you return. He doesn’t play with the toys you got him and prefers to spend most of his time sitting by the window and staring outside with an expression you can only describe as wistful.
🌌 Likes to sample whatever food you’re having. Dainsleif eats his cat food just fine, but you notice that he’s often curious about what you’re eating. He can’t help but want to sniff and taste human foods since the unique scents and flavors entice him. You share a little bit of your food with him after making sure it’s safe for cats, and Dainsleif couldn’t be more grateful for your generosity. However, this led to him expecting you to share a bit of your food with him during every meal. He’ll look dejected if you don’t.
🌌 When not weighed down by his illness, Dainsleif is very agile and has good stamina. He’s well suited for traveling outdoors with you if it’s something you want to try and will stay by your side like a loyal guard dog the entire time.
🌌 He’s very pliant with you. He tolerates bathing and grooming like a trooper despite not being fond of it since you’re the only one he trusts. If someone else attempted to groom him, then Dainsleif would simply run off and hide. However, he allows you to maneuver him in whatever way you need to complete the work well, and he doesn’t even complain about it. He becomes the sweetest cat in your presence.

to better understand your planets in detriment and in fall: celestial anatomy: somatic astrology
I'm so glad you've gotten enough rest to feel the energy to write again! As for ideas... I have several for this man but I will share the most recent one I've gotten.
This is based on my personal headcanon that he'd any stray dogs in Dovebrook District.
So, pre-relationship, one of the days he's going to feed the dogs, he sees the reader there also doing the same thing as well as playing with them.
It's an absolutely adorable scene and his heart about to combust just by the sight of it.
He eventually joins them and it becomes a huge pile of Ashveil, reader and the dogs all playing together.
Bonus points if the reader is cooing at the dogs, talking to them in a cutesy high-pitched voice saying things like, "Who's a good boy? You are! Yes, you are!" And Ashveil is thinking to himself, "God I wish that were me."
So... Yeah! That's the idea. I hope you're having a good day!
I'M SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG! I've been dealing with some stuff lately, life can be a pain in the ass.
There's a verb missing in your first sentence but I'm gonna assume it's either "feeds" or "takes care of bc that man does NOT have the money to adopt any animal 😭 but it's honestly such a cute idea! I've inverted it in the sense that it's Reader stumbling upon Ashveil, hope that's okay!
Sparky, Roger, Damsel and Spot. Those are the four stray dogs you have encountered in Dovebrook District, the friendly ones you've gotten close enough to to occasionally pet and feed. When you come home from work, you encounter at least one of them, and you always make sure to have some snacks in your bag for them. Sometimes, you wonder if they had owners, or if they'd be better off in a shelter instead. Though the neighbors already take good care of them. There's little to worry about.
Today, you have a day off, and you've decided to surprise your furry friends by stopping by when they don't expect you. With a small bag of a new sort of snack, you leave your apartment and head for the little corner where you usually go to meet them.
"Aren't you the best pup, Mercator? Oh, I know you are!"
The familiar voice of a broke detective greets you as you spot Ashveil crouching down and ruffling Spot's hair and cooing softly at the big mutt, with Sparky, Roger and Damsel crowding around him, eager for pats. As soon as the dogs spot you, their tails start wagging.
You grin, stepping closer. "Mercator?" Of course he'd pick a name related to those comics.
Ashveik perks up at the question, smiling wide once he spots you. "Good morning! Here to play with these absolute cuties, I assume?" He turns to Spot once more, puffing his cheeks, voice a high squeal. "Because you are! You're so cute!"
A snort. The sight of this grown ass man being so doting with the pups is downright adorable, even if he looks very silly.
Crouching down next to him, Damsel eagerly comes over and presses her snout against your face, trying to lick all over. You hold her back as best as you can.
"And which one have you declared to be Vexis?," you grin, trying to guess which of the dogs he'd name after that refined lady.
"The one about to jump on your back."
As he mentions this, Sparky sets her paws on your back, eagerly sniffing out your nape. You let out a squeak, her wet nose making you jump. Ashveil only laughs in response.
You huff, one hand occupied with holding Sparky back while Roger timidly trots over, ever the gentleman among the bunch. You coo, turning your attention to him while you side-eye the detective.
"Unlike some people," you say sharply, but not serious, "there are some creatures in this District that know how to be nice. Isn't that right, Roger?"
While Ashveil opens a bag of treats, making the girls jump up to him instead, you gently take Roger's snout in your hands and lovingly rub through his thick fur.
"Oh, you're such a good boy, aren't you? So polite, so sweet, so loving," you baby-talk him, leaning down to press kisses against the dog's forehead.
Meanwhile, Ashveil's eyes widen. He seldom sees this side of yours: sweet and doting, not meeting the dog with the usual sass directed at him, that he's more than happy to reciprocate. It's what makes you fun to hang out with, not to mention all the other wonderful qualities he likes about you. Now, as he watches the way your eyes soften and your voice take on that lulling timbre, an image shoots into his brain: how it would be like to feel your loving hands on his cheeks, how you'd gaze into his eyes with such tender love, how you'd praise him, kiss him, tell him that he's so good, so, so good for you.
"...Ashveil?"
The question rips him out of his fantasies, and it's only now that he notices that he not only dropped the entire bag of snacks, leaving the strays to feast on the goodies, but that his face feels like it's burning. Quickly, he pulls his hat over his face.
"Ah, sorry. Just remembered that I forgot Mr. N in the fridge," he blurts out, quickly running off to the agency.
Everything around him escapes his every sense as his mind only focuses on that image, so vivid, and so utterly sudden. He has never felt this before. Not in all the times you two have hung out. What's this feeling suddenly tugging at his chest?
He's sick. Yes, that's his verdict, a result of careful, methodical, and most importantly, flawless deduction. And his deductions are always right.
🃏 You picked him up as a stray off the streets. Aventurine looked so pitiful in his dirty and starved state, that you didn’t have the heart to leave him like that, so you brought him home. Initially, he appeared nervous and quiet during the first few weeks. Once he became accustomed to living with you, you discovered that the little, scrawny feline has a big personality.
🃏 Aventurine loves to be pampered. He always purrs whenever you brush or pet him, give him belly rubs, or chin skritches. He simply adores your attention. When you coo that he’s such a pretty kitty? Aventurine looks as smug as a cat can possibly look and follows you around the house while affectionately rubbing against your legs.
🃏 He’s very loyal to you. Anyone that comes to your house and tries to coax him to come play or get pats, is promptly ignored by the feline. The ability to cuddle and pet him are luxuries he reserves only for you.
🃏 You’d think starving out on the streets would have made Aventurine eager to eat almost anything, but no. The little rascal only eats the most expensive cat food brands and turns his nose up at anything else. Either that, or he will steal your food off your plate when you’re not looking.
🃏 Aventurine likes to sleep next to you. It doesn’t matter what you’re doing—he will saunter up and lay down somewhere close to take a nap. It’s also a given that he sleeps cuddled up beside you in bed during bedtime. He simply likes feeling your presence since it makes him feel safe.
🃏 As such, Aventurine hates when you leave him home alone for extended periods. He’s surprisingly clingy and gets lonely easily. If you’re gone for most of the day, he’ll be very upset by the time you get home and might tear up a pillow or the curtains out of spite. If this this pattern continues for a long while, one day you’ll notice that your keys are gone. Aventurine is a smart cat and quickly figures out that when you leave the house, you always bring your keys with you. To make you stay, he’ll hide them in a spot that only he can reach with ease. Good luck getting your keys back…
🃏 That said, getting another cat or pet won’t cure his loneliness. If anything, Aventurine will become possessive and jealous because he hates having to share your attention with another cat. He’s a bit territorial of you. Similarly, he dislikes you coming home smelling like another animal, so expect him to rub against you to overwrite the scent of that other animal.
🃏 Most of all, Aventurine hates it when you get mad at him. He always looks guilty whenever you scold or yell at him, and immediately flops over onto his back to expose his furry belly to you. It’s his attempt to placate you and ask for your forgiveness. He anxiously follows you around the house and rubs his body against your legs until he’s sure you’re not mad at him anymore.
Argenti:
🌹 An Ocicat breed.
🌹 Argenti is the most photogenic cat you’ve ever encountered. He always looks graceful and dignified no matter what he’s doing or what angle you take photos of him from. Every picture comes out looking lovely. Anyone who sees your cat always says that he looks beautiful.
🌹 To keep such a gorgeous appearance, Argenti often grooms himself. He does a very good job of it, too, which is why you barely have to groom him yourself. The most you have to do is give him the occasional bath, brush out shedding fur during shedding season, and clip his claws.
🌹 As gorgeous as he is for a house cat, Argenti is a free spirit who doesn’t like to be cooped up at home for long periods of time. Whenever he wants to go out, he’ll paw at the door or windows to signal for you to open them. You were nervous about letting him out at first but soon learned that his desire for the great outdoors was unstoppable. He would venture outside one way or another, much to your befuddlement. He enjoys exploring the neighborhood but always makes sure to come home before dark. As much as he loves adventuring, he loves being in your loving arms more.
🌹 Argenti has the temperament of an angel. You could do whatever you wanted to him, and he would gracefully take it without complaining or struggling. It makes doing things like taking him to the vet, bathing, and grooming extremely easy. You could even make him wear different outfits, and he won’t mind at all. He might even like wearing some of them.
🌹 Is very friendly. Whenever you have guests over, Argenti greets them at the door and purrs while rubbing against their legs. He also readily engages in play and comes if they call him. He does this with everyone who comes through your door, so he’s pretty well-liked among your social circle. However, he doesn’t sit on your guests’ laps or cuddle with them since he’s too active to be a lap cat. Such privileges are available only to you.
🌹 His overly friendly and affectionate personality extends to more than just people. He can purr for other animals he finds during his little excursions outdoors, or even inanimate objects. You once caught him rubbing up against one of your potted plants…
🌹 If you’re scared of insects, then Argenti is the cat for you. Whenever he hears you shriek because you saw a bug, he runs over to your side and promptly fends off the heinous critter. He easily catches and kills any insects so that you, his owner, don’t have to be scared anymore. You can sic him on anything, and he’ll get rid of it for you.
🌹 Argenti is sensitive to your emotional state. Whenever you’re upset, Argenti brings a toy over to you to try and get you to play with him and take your mind off whatever is bothering you. If that doesn’t cheer you up, then he lays down on your chest and licks at your face with his rough tongue. It’s his way of soothing you. He’ll purr on your chest until you feel better.
Jing Yuan:
🦁 A Maine Coon.
🦁 Is a big and lazy cat. Jing Yuan will chase a toy around the house if you play with him, but he generally prefers to snooze by a window while catching some rays of warm sun. He can more often than not be found napping in some cozy and warm corner of the house. When you’re not home, he’ll also sleep in your bed under the blankets.
🦁 Jing Yuan has a calm temperament. He’s very well-behaved during grooming and handles bathing, drying, and brushing like a champ. He’s chill as a cucumber and doesn’t put up a fight while you do your thing in maintaining his long coat. In fact, he’s so laidback, that you could squeeze and rub him all over and he won’t lash out at you, instead tolerating everything with what you can only describe as a smile.
🦁 As accepting as he is of all your affections, he has boundaries. Jing Yuan is generally not fond of being squeezed and terrorized, especially by people who invade his personal space (like rambunctious children or people who bury their faces in his fur). If one such person is in your home, Jing Yuan will vanish without a trace as soon as he hears their footsteps. He only tolerates such treatment from you because you’re his beloved owner.
🦁 Jing Yuan likes being petted and praised but prefers it if these affections come from you. He especially enjoys being brushed by you, and purrs when you comb through his fur. He can even fall asleep on our lap during brushing since the process relaxes him so much.
🦁 He’s a very intelligent cat. Sometimes you talk to him as if you were talking to a friend or family member, and Jing Yuan would meow back in response at appropriate times during the conversation, as if he were replying to your comments. He also has this intelligent look in his golden eyes, as if he understands everything you’re saying. It can be a bit uncanny at times.
🦁 On top of his ability to respond appropriately to your speech, Jing Yuan also easily senses whenever you’re upset. If you feel down, Jing Yuan will stick to your side or lay on your chest and purr until you feel better. If you cry, he’ll lick your tears away. He remains by your side until you’re all better, and won’t leave you alone for anything.
🦁 Is very curious about everything that you do. When you cook, Jing Yuan sits somewhere in the kitchen and watches you busy yourself with whipping up a meal for yourself. He likes to sniff the ingredients you’re working with, either to identify them or discover a food he hasn’t encountered before. Rest assured that he won’t eat anything without you explicitly offering it to him. However, if you have something yummy like fish or chicken cooking, he expects you to share some of it with him once it comes time to eat. He wants to eat delicious things too, not only cat food.
🦁 Frequently sees you off when you leave the house. Likewise, he patiently waits for you at the door when it’s time for you to come home. He’s a bit like a dog in that way.
🛡️ Gepard is the most dog-like cat you have ever met. Much like a dog, he sees you off when you leave your house, and greets you when you return. He enjoys playing fetch more than chasing after a string, since it fetch gives him more of a workout. He’s also easy to train to perform tricks since he understands and obeys commands quickly. If you wanted, you could bring him to cat agility tournaments and do fairly well in the competition.
🛡️ He might comply if your relative gave him an order to come here, but won’t do tricks and such for them. If you tell him to come here, roll over, play dead, etc… Gepard will comply without hesitation. He’s that trusting and loyal towards you.
🛡️ While to you Gepard appears harmless, in reality, he’s a force to be reckoned with, even for a house cat. If he sees you welcome someone into your home, he assumes the person is important to you, so he welcomes them in turn, albeit with some initial suspicion. That’s why he’s so accepting of your loved ones. However, if someone enters uninvited, especially if it’s someone he doesn’t know, Gepard won’t hesitate to growl and threaten the person to leave. His fur stands on end to make him look larger, and his teeth and claws are bared, showing that he means business. It’s usually enough to discourage anyone from trespassing. If not, then he’ll alert you with a loud yowl if you’re home, or go in for an attack. Furthermore, if someone makes you uncomfortable in your own home, Gepard senses your discomfort and is immediately at your side, ready to attack if the other person tries anything. He has no reservations about using his claws and teeth for the sake of protecting his owner.
🛡️ Due to his long and thick coat, Gepard requires regular grooming. Based on the somber expression on his cute little muzzle, you can tell he doesn’t enjoy being bathed and groomed, but he soldiers through it without struggle or complaint. As mentioned previously, he’s very loyal and trusting of you, so he understands that what you’re doing to him is not dangerous and is for his own benefit. Giving him praise about how much of a good boy he’s being, seems to help warm him up to the process.
🛡️ While he’s not a huge fan of being pet, but if you spend some time gently petting his head or brushing his fur, he will relax and accept the attention. He purrs and kneads at whatever is under him, clearly enjoying the experience. You try to give him gentle pets as a reward for waiting for you to come home and keeping watch of the house, and it works to deepen your bond with him.
🛡️ He’s vocal when with you. Gepard often communicates with you via chirps and low meows, using them as a means of calling you over for something. When you leave something cooking on the stove and forget about it, Gepard smells smoke and meows at you to come over and take care of it. If you haven’t unloaded the washing machine for a while, he calls on you to let you know its done. He just wants to help his owner stay on track.
🛡️ Once the two of you settle into a daily routine, Gepard expects you to maintain it. He’ll be unhappy if the pattern is broken. If you oversleep, Gepard is there to wake you up. He’ll meow and walk all over you until you get up and feed him. It’s great for when you sleep past you alarm since it prevents you from being late to work/school, but it’s not so fun on the weekends… Similarly, Gepard expects you to go to bed at the same time every night. He’s used to going to bed together with you, so if you stay up late, he’ll sit nearby and glare at you, tail twitching in dissatisfaction. If you don’t get his hint to abandon everything and head to bed already, then he’ll quietly meow to get your attention.
Ratio:
📖 Is a Bengal
📖 Ratio is an extremely intelligent cat, but he has a nasty attitude. He’s very prideful and stubborn, and despite your attempts to discipline and train him, he refuses to bend to your will. If anything, you’re the one bending to his. He’s not a troublemaker, but if you piss him off enough, Ratio can resort to knocking items off shelves or swatting at your face (with claws retracted, thankfully) in retaliation. If you scold him for his behaviour, he simply glares at you with his ears flattened to his head and tail flicking, as if daring you to say more. Everything about his body language screams he will swat you in the face if you say another word.
📖 If he messes up big time, such as breaking something important or accidentally nicking you with his claws, then Ratio accepts the scolding with a guilty expression. The flicking of his tail indicates he’s not happy to sit through your verbal lashing, but he’s smart enough to understand that what he did was bad for you. Despite his prideful attitude, the feline doesn’t want to cause you too much trouble, or so you like to think.
📖 You find out that Ratio is unusually intelligent for a cat soon after adopting him. He enjoys playing with cat toys that serve as a puzzle he must solve to get a treat. Ratio also observed how you open doors, and devised his own methods of opening them despite not having hands. He also likes to sit beside you on the bed or desk when you read books, in particular textbooks. As a cat, there’s no way he knows how to read, but you frequently catch him staring intently at the pages. It’s a mystery as to what is going through his mind during those moments, but it sometimes unnerves you how he seems to be studying the images. Aside from books, Ratio also enjoys watching TV, especially if it’s a documentary where he can observe various animals. He’s smart enough to know that what’s on TV is not in real life. If you bring something new home, Ratio takes time to thoroughly sniff and inspect whatever that something may be. He’s very curious and enjoys interacting with new things. That said, he also requires a lot of exercise. He’s a large and muscular cat for his breed, and requires ample space and playtime to run around and burn off excess energy.
📖 Despite being a cat, Ratio considers himself your equal, if not your superior. Back when you first got him, you had placed some cat food into a bowl on the floor for him while you sat at the table to eat. Ratio had expressed a clear dislike for this arrangement, climbing onto the table and angrily meowing at you. You expect him to eat kibble off the floor like a common cat, while you eat a freshly cooked meal at the table? Absolutely not. Know your place, human. After several consecutive sessions like that where he angrily yowled at you for constantly shooing him off the table, Ratio now eats at the table with you. He always waits to eat together with you, so if you skip on a meal or are late to eat, he’ll make his dissatisfaction with you known.
📖 On the topic of food, Ratio dislikes eating cheap cat food. He likes healthier cat food brands which usually end up being more expensive, but he especially likes it if you cook his meal yourself. Some cooked chicken, fish, or seafood make him a very happy cat. He’s a spoiled cat.
📖 Ratio dislikes loud noises, so if you have noisy guests over, he will usually hide. He developed a habit of sticking his head inside a small paper bag you had lying around, and wearing it on his head until the guests leave. You’re unsure if he’s trying to block out the noise or trying to hide, but one thing for certain is that he becomes very upset if you remove the paper bag from his head. The bag must stay.
📖 Ratio typically isn’t into being pet or cuddled, so such occasions with him are rare. He does, however, enjoy it when you scratch under his chin. He tends to close his eyes and purr when you lightly scratch under his chin. Another time he allows you to touch him freely is during baths. Ratio is probably the first cat you’ve ever met that loves baths. He seems to always be eager to hop into the tub and soak in the warm water. He lets you clean his body without complaint, seeming to enjoy the pampering. He’s patient while you dry and brush him, but he expects you to do a good job of grooming his fur. If you’re gentle enough with the brush, he might lean into it and purr in enjoyment.
Dan Heng:
🐉 Is a Dragon Li
🐉 Dan Heng is a reserved cat. He prefers to spend time alone, away from the chatter and activity of people. You can often find him sitting by a window, pensively staring outside at the world beyond the glass. You can only wonder what he’s thinking about with such a somber expression. What kind of troubles do cats have on their minds?
🐉 If you have guests over, then Dan Heng hides. He dislikes crowds and loud noises, you’ve noticed. It’s rare for him to come out of hiding to meet guests. If he does, he tends to keep his distance and peers over the corner at whoever you have invited. Once his curiosity has been sated, he’ll leave without interacting with your guest at all.
🐉 Dan Heng is pretty antisocial, but he’s more amicable around you. While he doesn’t humor your guests when they try to play with him, when you’re the one dangling the cat toys or laser, Dan Heng engages in play with you. He also lets you get away with more than you think. He tolerates it when you play with his paws or rub his belly, even though he doesn’t actually like it. You’re also the only one he allows to pick him up.
🐉 Despite purchasing him a cat bed, Dan Heng doesn’t sleep in it. He acts a bit awkward around it, as if not knowing if it’s for him or not. He prefers to sleep on the floor, usually on a comfy rug. With some time and patience, you can coax him to sleep on your bed but know that he won’t snuggle up to you. Dan Heng will keep some distance between you and will lay at your feet. Even then, he’ll only lay on your bed if you’re settling in to sleep. During the day, he still naps on the floor.
🐉 Sometimes, you notice Dan Heng’s legs twitch and ears flatten when he sleeps, his fur standing on end as if he were terrified of something in his dreams. You’re uncertain if cats can have bad dreams, but Dan Heng’s reaction makes you think he’s having a nightmare. He seems dazed when he wakes from such episodes, and you wonder if he dreamed about something horrible from his days when he was a stray. You try to comfort him through these episodes by checking in on him and speaking gently, which seems to help calm him down. He follows you around for a bit after that, as if wanting to remain in your presence for a bit longer.
🐉 Despite how aloof Dan Heng is, you still know he cares about your well-being. If you’re having a bad day, he softens up to you. As if sensing your sadness, he comes out of hiding and remains by your side, sometimes even lying on your lap or chest. He allows you to pet and cuddle him if you need the comfort, and stays with you until you feel better. If you take medication, Dan Heng reminds you to take it on time if you forget.
🐉 Dan Heng keeps himself quite clean, and only needs an occasional bath and claw trim from you to keep him in perfect condition. He's surprisingly tolerant of baths. You thought he might struggle and run, but Dan Heng calmly handles the entire bathing process without so much as a peep. If you make fun of him for looking like a wet cat, Dan Heng will give you the most unamused look you’ve ever seen from a cat, and proceed to give you the cold shoulder for the rest of the day.
Sampo:
💣 Korat breed
💣 Cats are renowned for how quietly they walk, to the point their owners don’t hear them approach. It’s an amazing skill, yet somehow, Sampo manages to surpass the average cat in terms of stealth. While most cats still make noise when they accidentally knock something over when walking along cluttered surfaces or running around the house, Sampo doesn’t. He’s silent and careful about the way he moves, putting his feline brethren to shame. This skill of his comes at a detriment, however. You don’t hear him trail behind you when you do chores at home, and sometimes trip over him or step on his tail on accident. Sampo still hasn’t forgiven you for squashing his tail.
💣 He's a very intelligent and mischievous cat. Sure, he can do tricks in exchange for treats like a dog, but his intelligence goes far beyond that. Back when you first got him, there was a time when you were having dinner and Sampo came up to you and started to rub himself against your legs. He was very responsive when you leaned down to pet him, purring up a storm as you cooed at him. You were so engrossed with how cute and affectionate Sampo was acting, that you didn’t mind when he climbed up onto your lap for more affection. That was your mistake. While you were distracted with petting him, the furry scoundrel took the opportunity to snatch some food off your plate and made a run for it.
💣 He tried to use the same trick on you again, but it didn’t work a second time. However, he uses it fairly often on your guests. Despite your warning to not fall for his false charms, Sampo always manages to win your guests over and then unceremoniously yoinks their food from their plates when they least expect it. He has now been banned from the dining area when guests are over.
💣 Sampo has proven his cunning in other ways, too. Since the same tactic doesn’t work on you twice, the little furball devised another plan. He learned that you respond very effectively to his calls of distress, and so now when you have a meal, he goes into another room in the house and yowls in the most pitiful manner you have ever heard. His distressed meows make you abandon your food in favor of searching for your cat, concerned that something might be wrong with him. While you’re busy searching for him, Sampo slinks past you to where you were eating. By the time you come back after a fruitless search, you discover that half your food has gone missing.
💣 Sampo’s antics don’t end there. Once when you came home, you found your pantry raided and fridge open and emptied. The culprit was none other than your feline fiend of a pet—Sampo. You can’t fathom how, but he figured out how to open the fridge, among other types of doors. Of course, you gave him the scolding of a lifetime. He immediately started begging for your forgiveness by rubbing against your legs and staring at you with his big, green eyes as if begging you to not be angry at little ol’ Sampo. Despite sucking up to you, Sampo continued to steal food from the pantry, but in smaller quantities this time to not get caught. You still caught him in the act, though, and now have locks on all your cabinets and fridge to keep him out.
💣 Aside from food theft and manipulation, Sampo also has a habit of collecting various knickknacks around the house. He squirrels away anything that catches his fancy and that isn’t securely stored away where he can’t get into. He keeps his “treasures” in a small nook where he suspects you won’t find them, such as under your bed, behind the couch, or in a cluttered spot inside the closet. You only discover his secret stash when you do a deep cleaning of your home. There, in the dusty corner, are your missing hair ties, jewelry, candy wrappers, random string and other junk that you lost track of long ago. Sampo will be very upset if you confiscate these items.
💣 You can’t force Sampo to do something he doesn’t want. If you want bathe him and he hears the water running in the tub, he vanishes without a trace. If it’s time to go to the vet and he sees you get out the cat carrier, he disappears like smoke. He’s right next to you one moment, and then gone the next. No amount of “pspsps” or cat treats will coax him out of hiding. You can even turn the entire place upside down and still not find him.
🃏 You picked him up as a stray off the streets. Aventurine looked so pitiful in his dirty and starved state, that you didn’t have the heart to leave him like that, so you brought him home. Initially, he appeared nervous and quiet during the first few weeks. Once he became accustomed to living with you, you discovered that the little, scrawny feline has a big personality.
🃏 Aventurine loves to be pampered. He always purrs whenever you brush or pet him, give him belly rubs, or chin skritches. He simply adores your attention. When you coo that he’s such a pretty kitty? Aventurine looks as smug as a cat can possibly look and follows you around the house while affectionately rubbing against your legs.
🃏 He’s very loyal to you. Anyone that comes to your house and tries to coax him to come play or get pats, is promptly ignored by the feline. The ability to cuddle and pet him are luxuries he reserves only for you.
🃏 You’d think starving out on the streets would have made Aventurine eager to eat almost anything, but no. The little rascal only eats the most expensive cat food brands and turns his nose up at anything else. Either that, or he will steal your food off your plate when you’re not looking.
🃏 Aventurine likes to sleep next to you. It doesn’t matter what you’re doing—he will saunter up and lay down somewhere close to take a nap. It’s also a given that he sleeps cuddled up beside you in bed during bedtime. He simply likes feeling your presence since it makes him feel safe.
🃏 As such, Aventurine hates when you leave him home alone for extended periods. He’s surprisingly clingy and gets lonely easily. If you’re gone for most of the day, he’ll be very upset by the time you get home and might tear up a pillow or the curtains out of spite. If this this pattern continues for a long while, one day you’ll notice that your keys are gone. Aventurine is a smart cat and quickly figures out that when you leave the house, you always bring your keys with you. To make you stay, he’ll hide them in a spot that only he can reach with ease. Good luck getting your keys back…
🃏 That said, getting another cat or pet won’t cure his loneliness. If anything, Aventurine will become possessive and jealous because he hates having to share your attention with another cat. He’s a bit territorial of you. Similarly, he dislikes you coming home smelling like another animal, so expect him to rub against you to overwrite the scent of that other animal.
🃏 Most of all, Aventurine hates it when you get mad at him. He always looks guilty whenever you scold or yell at him, and immediately flops over onto his back to expose his furry belly to you. It’s his attempt to placate you and ask for your forgiveness. He anxiously follows you around the house and rubs his body against your legs until he’s sure you’re not mad at him anymore.
Argenti:
🌹 An Ocicat breed.
🌹 Argenti is the most photogenic cat you’ve ever encountered. He always looks graceful and dignified no matter what he’s doing or what angle you take photos of him from. Every picture comes out looking lovely. Anyone who sees your cat always says that he looks beautiful.
🌹 To keep such a gorgeous appearance, Argenti often grooms himself. He does a very good job of it, too, which is why you barely have to groom him yourself. The most you have to do is give him the occasional bath, brush out shedding fur during shedding season, and clip his claws.
🌹 As gorgeous as he is for a house cat, Argenti is a free spirit who doesn’t like to be cooped up at home for long periods of time. Whenever he wants to go out, he’ll paw at the door or windows to signal for you to open them. You were nervous about letting him out at first but soon learned that his desire for the great outdoors was unstoppable. He would venture outside one way or another, much to your befuddlement. He enjoys exploring the neighborhood but always makes sure to come home before dark. As much as he loves adventuring, he loves being in your loving arms more.
🌹 Argenti has the temperament of an angel. You could do whatever you wanted to him, and he would gracefully take it without complaining or struggling. It makes doing things like taking him to the vet, bathing, and grooming extremely easy. You could even make him wear different outfits, and he won’t mind at all. He might even like wearing some of them.
🌹 Is very friendly. Whenever you have guests over, Argenti greets them at the door and purrs while rubbing against their legs. He also readily engages in play and comes if they call him. He does this with everyone who comes through your door, so he’s pretty well-liked among your social circle. However, he doesn’t sit on your guests’ laps or cuddle with them since he’s too active to be a lap cat. Such privileges are available only to you.
🌹 His overly friendly and affectionate personality extends to more than just people. He can purr for other animals he finds during his little excursions outdoors, or even inanimate objects. You once caught him rubbing up against one of your potted plants…
🌹 If you’re scared of insects, then Argenti is the cat for you. Whenever he hears you shriek because you saw a bug, he runs over to your side and promptly fends off the heinous critter. He easily catches and kills any insects so that you, his owner, don’t have to be scared anymore. You can sic him on anything, and he’ll get rid of it for you.
🌹 Argenti is sensitive to your emotional state. Whenever you’re upset, Argenti brings a toy over to you to try and get you to play with him and take your mind off whatever is bothering you. If that doesn’t cheer you up, then he lays down on your chest and licks at your face with his rough tongue. It’s his way of soothing you. He’ll purr on your chest until you feel better.
Jing Yuan:
🦁 A Maine Coon.
🦁 Is a big and lazy cat. Jing Yuan will chase a toy around the house if you play with him, but he generally prefers to snooze by a window while catching some rays of warm sun. He can more often than not be found napping in some cozy and warm corner of the house. When you’re not home, he’ll also sleep in your bed under the blankets.
🦁 Jing Yuan has a calm temperament. He’s very well-behaved during grooming and handles bathing, drying, and brushing like a champ. He’s chill as a cucumber and doesn’t put up a fight while you do your thing in maintaining his long coat. In fact, he’s so laidback, that you could squeeze and rub him all over and he won’t lash out at you, instead tolerating everything with what you can only describe as a smile.
🦁 As accepting as he is of all your affections, he has boundaries. Jing Yuan is generally not fond of being squeezed and terrorized, especially by people who invade his personal space (like rambunctious children or people who bury their faces in his fur). If one such person is in your home, Jing Yuan will vanish without a trace as soon as he hears their footsteps. He only tolerates such treatment from you because you’re his beloved owner.
🦁 Jing Yuan likes being petted and praised but prefers it if these affections come from you. He especially enjoys being brushed by you, and purrs when you comb through his fur. He can even fall asleep on our lap during brushing since the process relaxes him so much.
🦁 He’s a very intelligent cat. Sometimes you talk to him as if you were talking to a friend or family member, and Jing Yuan would meow back in response at appropriate times during the conversation, as if he were replying to your comments. He also has this intelligent look in his golden eyes, as if he understands everything you’re saying. It can be a bit uncanny at times.
🦁 On top of his ability to respond appropriately to your speech, Jing Yuan also easily senses whenever you’re upset. If you feel down, Jing Yuan will stick to your side or lay on your chest and purr until you feel better. If you cry, he’ll lick your tears away. He remains by your side until you’re all better, and won’t leave you alone for anything.
🦁 Is very curious about everything that you do. When you cook, Jing Yuan sits somewhere in the kitchen and watches you busy yourself with whipping up a meal for yourself. He likes to sniff the ingredients you’re working with, either to identify them or discover a food he hasn’t encountered before. Rest assured that he won’t eat anything without you explicitly offering it to him. However, if you have something yummy like fish or chicken cooking, he expects you to share some of it with him once it comes time to eat. He wants to eat delicious things too, not only cat food.
🦁 Frequently sees you off when you leave the house. Likewise, he patiently waits for you at the door when it’s time for you to come home. He’s a bit like a dog in that way.
Here's another one. I like this concept, don't judge me
Humans are space orcs but not exactly in our physical size or appearance. We as a species are considered very soft and even weak around the galaxy. No sharp teeth even if we're predators, no hard skin or horns or tail, and we cut our own claws! And yet we survive in a planet that actively tries to kill us. We're soft but we live in a world full of animals bigger than us and with poison that could kill us in seconds and we survive.
That softness makes a lot of the bigger and strongest aliens think of us as adorable little creatures that need them to survive in outer space. Which isn't wrong entirely, we can't survive half of the shit happening on their planet which is why we tend to stick to the bigger aliens around us.
One species of aliens likes humans a lot, the Ghokkells, because humans are so similar to their cubs that it triggers their protective instincts. If one facility has a Ghokkell and a human, you better believe that alien will do everything they can to be the human's assigned partner in missions to protect them
In one of those missions a group of Ghokkells and a handful of humans had running away from a threat until the safety of the space ship for a good handful kilometers. After it, the group sat down on the entrance, too exhausted to move elsewhere. The Ghokkells piled for comfort, some dragging their favorite human with them. After only half an hour the humans were squirmy!
One thing that a lot of species take for granted while evaluating others is the resistance, it's always how smart or strong someone is and never for how long can they work. And humans are creatures that can push themselves to impressive extremes. So it's a shock for the Ghokkells to see their humans just out and about as if all that running didn't do that much damage while they themselves could barley move on their own.
