Would the Moon Boys like having a cat? Can the car see Khonshu? Who does the cat imprint on first? 😆
Heyyy nonnie!
Based on this post I did about Moon Boys’ favorite animals (which I turned into a pets post), I’m going to stick with the idea that Jake likes cats and dogs the most, including strays, and they love him equally.
At home, it's Jake's cat, Marc ignores it, Steven overfeeds it, wanting to take care of it even though Jake's already done so.
Jake calls it Freckles but Steven calls it something ancient Egyptian. Marc calls it Cat.
Freckles hisses when Khoshu comes calling, sometimes so loudly that Khonshu asks if Jake will make it be quiet. Jake says good cat, ruffling its head with a chuckle. Steven tells Khonshu that cats chase silly old birds, so maybe Khonshu should just make himself scarce.
Marc is like...wait, are you like the mummy in The Mummy? Are you scared of cats? Please be scared of cats and Fuck Off.
When the boys suit up, Freckles turns around and sticks its butt up in the air in defiance, mad at Dad for leaving at all hours. Marc says it's got the right idea when it comes to responding to Khonshu. Steven gives it a sweet, encouraging pep talk about returning soon.
Jake lets Freckles come with, half the time, to Steven's dismay.
Side note: At first, I was thinking can the caR see Khonshu, and it reminded me of this Supernatural episode named "Baby" where the whole episode is filmed from the POV of Dean's car. Not like the car is sentient or anything, just the whole ep takes place in and around the car.
So I was like, yo, what if Jake's cab or ride share car/limo/whatever was like.......alive? Like the old 80's show Knight Rider. And this sent me down a whole different, non-cat path...
@missdictatorme @marshmallow--3 and whoever else is more clever than me, please feel free to weigh in on cat behavior toward Khonshu. I'm sure there is hilarity to be found there.
