GUESS WHO HAS FREE TIME TO DO HEADCANON LIKE PROMPTS AND SHORT STORIES!
PROMPT: The burden of looking after Kankuro’s cat(s) has fallen on Gaara. How does he handle the task of pet-sitter?
-Kankuro only has 1 cat but don't ask where he got it and dont touch the cat or he'll flip.
-no one knows about the cat since Temari wouldn't let him keep the small animal that is NOT suited for the desert
-this also includes Gaara who is too busy to get into whatever is living in Kankuro's workshop.
-(because there is SOMETHING living in his workshop the siblings are THAT oblivious)
-Until Kankuro has to go to Kumo as diplomat since Temari has moved to Konoha.
-Gaara is confused and is wondering if he spent too much time in the sun (even though he hasnt been in the sun hardly at all today) when Kankuro bursts into his office with a cat in his arms
-Kankuro gives no fucks as he dumps the cat on his brother's desk muttering "just feed/water her" and takes his scroll and leaves
-Gaara is still frozen staring at the calico until the door closes and it meows at him and-WHAT THE FUCK IS HE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH A CAT AGAIN
-he scrambles to get up and chase his brother when he notices a note attached to the cats collar
-the note is instructions on how to take care of 'Yoko' and Gaara breathes a sigh thinking this wouldnt be that hard-WHERE DID THE CAT GO????
-he spends half the day visibly distressed that he lost his brothers cat as he wanders the Kazekage mansion trying to call for it.
-(At some point the elders politely ask if he spent too much time in the sun today and they stop asking once he gives them a look)
-Gaara eventually finds it sitting in his chair looking pleased that it lead him on a wild goose chase and Gaara is too relieved to be annoyed.
-he feeds it and gives it a bowl of cool water and jumps when Yoko jumps into his lap and curls up to sleep.
-he tries (he really does) not to pet the cat but he pets the cat and now Yoko is his cat Kankuro go get another one.
-(until he realizes Yoko used his gourd as a liter box and yeah Kankuro take your cat back and no more diplomatic missions again)
-((he also doesnt find out until the day before Kankuros return when he goes to clean the liter box and finds it unused))
-Kankuro returns to find an annoyed Gaara, an extraordinarily unused litter box, and his cat quite happy that he doesnt have to leave anymore.
This is my first time doing a prompt in this format. Hope it was worth the read! And this was actually really fun to do!
