i like the idea that mungo and rumple are best friends, not dating and not related, but everyone either thinks they are dating or related. i think its funny also thats what happens to me with most of my friends.

Mungojerrie draped himself over the back of Rumpleteazer.

"Hey, partner! I got a surprise for you," He sang with a grin.

Rumpleteazer perked up. "Really? What is it?"

His response was to ruffle her head with his paw. "Dude, I aint tellin' you! That's why it's a surprise!"

"Bro, you gotta surprise me right now if you're gonna say you gotta surprise!"

The tom just shrugged. "I was gonna save it for when we got back to the human house, but okay I guess." He started to head off to what must have been his hiding spot for the item, before whipping back around.

"Close your eyes!" He called.

Rumpleteazer rolled her eyes, then closed them, a grin on her face. Whenever Jerrie gave her something, it was awesome. One time, it had been this really big fish, and it smelled a bit because he had caught it a few hours ago but saved it to share with her because he knew he wouldn't be able to eat it all. Teazer had eaten a majority of it.

There was a tap on her shoulder, and she turned towards the side that she had been tapped on.

"Haha, I'm on the other side! Tricked ya!"

"Aw, shit!" She replied, turning again. "Can I open them?" Rumpleteazer asked, and then opened her eyes before he could say anything.

She gasped just as Mungojerrie was about to protest her opening her eyes, snatching the object out of his paws. Her pupils were wide and shining, and her grin was even bigger than it had been before.

"You got me that set of pearls I saw!"

Mungojerrie didn't even have time to be angry at her, she was so happy.

"Yeah! I saw the shop door propped open today, and snatched 'em just for ya'!"

The calico theft dropped the pearl necklace down onto the ground in favor of giving

Mungojerrie a big hug. Then she punched him in the shoulder.

"You were supposed to wait for me, so we could loot that place together!"

"Aw, love ya' too, Teazer!"

Across the Junkyard, Munkustrap and Mistoffelees sat side-by-side on a tire. Munkustrap smiled.

"They're good for each other, you know? I don't know what the Junkyard would do if they ever broke up."

Mistoffelees, on the other hand, frowned.

"They're dating? I thought they were gay!"

A calico Queen fiddled with her paws. She sat a little bit away from a small group of young Queens as they talked to each other, before taking a deep breath and moving over to them.

She slid up next to the white Queen, named Victoria, with a smile. Said Queen turned towards her with a smile.

"Hi, Teazer!"

Teazer smiled back at her. "Victoria, could I talk to you?"

"Of course!"

"...Alone, maybe?" Rumpleteazer added, a little quieter.
