Top notes: This came about from 2 different writing prompts which then turned into two different stories. But both are connected with the same character: Mungojerrie.
I don’t write a lot of stories using this character and I thought it would be a great idea to also include two headcanons I have. However, this also meant that there will be another fic connecting those ideas.
In this story, Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer had only been with the Jellicles for a few months. While Rumpleteazer isn’t in this story physically, she is an important part of Mungojerrie’s character and internal struggle. She is the sole reason Mungojerrie wants to do this. Summary: Mungojerrie was nervous but with a sort of nervousness that came with uncertainty. He was about to ask Munkustrap an important question. He’d only been with the Jellicles for a short time yet he knew this was something he needed. If not for himself then for Rumpleteazer. Someone he needed to protect. Original Prompt: Teach me to fight! Characters: Mungojerrie, Munkustrap, Macavity (mentioned), Rumpleteazer (mentioned) Warnings: Trauma, self-doubt Follows the headcanon that Mungojerrie used to be one of Macavity's henchcats and did anything to protect Rumpleteazer. They have only been Jellicles for a few months.
Bottom Notes: Thanks for reading! I am writing another fic where Mungojerrie meets Skimbleshanks that is mentioned in this story. I can't wait to finish it too.
