"We are not getting a pet." -- theyoungmasterkoschei

"But Koschei! Look at it!" Theta held the kitten up, gently supporting the gray tabby in a way they had googled how to do very nearly immediately before walking in the door. "It’s so tiny and cute and fluffy!" This was all said with an undertone of ‘I am 100% confident that we are getting a pet, and it’s going to be this one.’

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

Will do. Are you going to be an outdoor cat, or spend all your time in the flat? I think I’ve seen catflaps before, but I don’t know where we’d put one.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Mm, not sure. Can’t hurt to have a way out, though.

By this point, Theta had brought Felix to their chest, gently stroking the kitten.

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"Ah, I see, it this why they are called "pet"s." Ko reached in to scratch on Felix’s face.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Woah woah woah! Watch the eyes! Felix batted Koschei’s hand away from the offending area. Theta snorted.

"Try back here," Theta suggested, pointing behind the kitten’s ears.

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

Ko does as instructed. My apologies, Felix. Ko pauses with the finger lingering in place. “We should probably get the sand square and the cat flap, shouldn’t we?”

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Yeah, man, let me scope this place out. Felix starts to squirm in Theta's grip. Theta lets the kitten down promptly and gently, guiding him further into the flat.

"There's a pet shop not too far from here, if I'm not mistaken, so we can just pop there and be back quite quickly, can't we?"

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"Oh, I mean worried. Don’t want to let them exploit that in us. And Mr. Mycroft always says to keep your vulnerabilities hidden in the field. I dont want you to get hurt, Theta." 

Ko gets the door for their partner. “After you, my dear?”

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"Oh. Yeah. Of course." Theta takes a deep, slow breath, before smiling and walking through the door. "Thanks, sweethearts."

REBLOG if you RP with nonnies

I know there are people out there too shy to show their faces, I wanted to know who’s out there that understands that and still wants to RP with everyone

[angsty-askboxmemes]

What is one thing your muse really hates about my muse? Does it get in the way of their relationship?

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"A tenner with the discount." Lily grinned, winking.

Theta tried very hard to keep their face even. It probably showed just a little bit. The second they had paid, Theta grabbed the bag of bread and Koschei’s hand, throwing a “Thanks-Lil-see-you-tomorrow!” over their shoulder as they stomped out.

No no NO that is NOT what I meant I was just saying that I think you are very pretty which is 100% fact proven by multiple species in clinical trials seriously your smile could launch ships and it’s not fair to the rest of us not that I’m complaining but I definitely do NOT want you to indulge her unless of course you want to in which case I don’t control you do whatever you want but anyway pumpkin coffee drink thing time??

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

Ko pays the bill, and when Theta grabs their hand, they feels the fear of the threat they’d implied. They takes the Gallifreyan’s hand and kiss it as, itself, an apology for having ever suggested that. And then spoke aloud: “Coffee.” As confirmation.

The two walk along to the coffee shop.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Theta sighs, visibly relaxing. “Yeah, okay. Yeah. It’s this way.” And they turn and hug Ko, sending an apology through the telepathic link. Sorry, sweethearts. Didn’t mean for you to take it that way.

(please don’t leave me alone here)

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

Don’t worry, I’ll never do that. [[Except you and I know they does.]]

They kisses Theta on the head while Theta’s hugging them.

"Alright, we’re here, my dear." They break off from one another. "Now, can’t have the threat seeing us like this, whatever it is." The thought hasn’t really occurred to Ko that the pumpkin thing is just a natural facet of the culture they’re in.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"Like what?" Theta frowned slightly. "Wouldn't it be more beneficial if we blend into the local populace?"

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

Ko laughs: The name’s Koschei. How do you feel about maybe living with us, Felix? (And just between us, what do you think of Theta?)

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Sure. It’s not the street, and actual communication is a nice change.

(They seems really naive, but crazy loyal and could probably fuck something up if they was mad.)

Theta giggled. “I can imagine actually being able to talk to us will help a ton.”

[thetwodegrees-blog]

Alright, welcome to team: Not-Quite-Sure-How-To-Deal-With-Humans. Oh, and you have to excrete waste, don’t you? You don’t seem the size to be able to use a toilet; how would you like to do that so as not to cover our things in waste?

[thegreatatheta-blog]

Humans have strange sand squares for cats. I don't know much about them but they work quite well. Look into that?

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"I think it is," Unless you think I should be indulging her dilation. Ko pulled out their wallet, breaking the contact and the psychic link. The talk of prettiness had made them very uncomfortable, so they had tried to make Theta uncomfortable as well, and was now feeling a touch guilty about that.

"How much will that be?"

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"A tenner with the discount." Lily grinned, winking.

Theta tried very hard to keep their face even. It probably showed just a little bit. The second they had paid, Theta grabbed the bag of bread and Koschei's hand, throwing a "Thanks-Lil-see-you-tomorrow!" over their shoulder as they stomped out.

Theta giggled. "I can imagine actually being able to talk to us will help a ton."

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"Sure, right away!" Lily smiled. "Theta, what’s your discount code again?" Theta rattled off the numbers, and Lily-Alice punched them in dutifully.

While she turned to wrap the pumpkin bread, Theta smiled and wrapped their arm around Koschei’s waist in return. Sweethearts, you really need to get out more.

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

I think you should be The Quiet of Rassilon.”Thank you much, Lily.” They tries to smile graciously, but it almost certainly comes off as really weird. “To get the coffee next, then, my hearts?”

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"No wait, can we also get a loaf of French?" Theta asked, scanning the back wall, where all the bread was stored until sale. Smaller things like muffins and scones were stored in the glass countertops.

You know, she's totally right about you being pretty. Shutting up... now. 

"Yeah, sure thing." Lily gestured for one of the other attendants to grab that loaf. "That it?"

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"We are not getting a pet." -- theyoungmasterkoschei

"But Koschei! Look at it!" Theta held the kitten up, gently supporting the gray tabby in a way they had googled how to do very nearly immediately before walking in the door.

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"A cat?" Probably the best of pets the two Gallifreyans could get, as the species cleans itself. "Why do you even want one? You’ve got all those humans, don’t you? How many more Earthlings do you need?"

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"Okay, but this one’s not just some pigsoleximas, it’s the only psychic species on this entire planet." Theta emphasized, rubbing behind the kitten’s ears.

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"Oh, psychic you say!" They looks down at the cat. What’s your name, then. Since you can talk to me much more efficiently than the rest of your planet.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

My name, as you so politely asked, is Felix. Felix of South Bloomsbury. And what about you, one-Theta-wants-me-to-like? Theta rolled his eyes, listening in more accidentally than not.

"See? Told you they’re psychic!"

[theyoungmasterkoschei-blog]

"Oh, I don’t like that," Ko whispers. "Humans should not be doing that."

"Can we get another loaf of that new—" they scans the board "—pumpkin bread." They’d forgotten the name for the particular gourd being used. 

Ko puts their arms around Theta’s shoulder and leans their head in to say telepathically: I thought the eye thing was a sign of the alien parasite. But it’s just attraction.

[thegreatatheta-blog]

"Sure, right away!" Lily smiled. "Theta, what's your discount code again?" Theta rattled off the numbers, and Lily-Alice punched them in dutifully.

While she turned to wrap the pumpkin bread, Theta smiled and wrapped their arm around Koschei's waist in return. Sweethearts, you really need to get out more.
