you are    /     extremely    /    needy for a cat    .    it's    /   pathetic   /     watching you beg like a puppy      .    do you have any self respect   ?    *     irony   .    here he was    ,   childishly guarding some catnip like his life depended on it   ,    judging the other as if he were any better     .*

@arcanepaws  ♰  it  could  be  o͟u͟r͟s͟  if  you  opened  up  your  heart  for  little  old  me.  :(  please.  pleeeeaaaase.  [  riku,  ever  the  dramatic,  pouted  with  all  the  dejection  his  feline  features  could  muster  up.  his  ears  forward  but  drooping,  clearly  displaying  his  disappointment  for  something  he  definitely  did  not  need.  ]

.,.     no   .   its      /      mine      /       *    his ears flattened to his head    ,      pulling his cloak close to him as he took a step back     .    a small growl formed in the back of his throat  ,   though he wasn't been particularly too aggressive toward the other    .     usually   ,      his wizard told him   ;     be kind   .   be generous   .   be selfless     .    and thorne was more than obliged to follow that rule     .     until his beloved catnip for involved     (    but he'd swear he didn't have a problem   )       *

/   this is so cute please. i <3 him

            > •       •    <  riku works at a cat cafe because of course he does.
            ──  he's constantly surrounded by cats so his 
            instincts feel normal.
            ──  it's a casual environment. he can be playful 
            without being told he's too much.
              /\____/\
            > •       •    <  riku serves drinks, cleans up, and helps 
            the customers with the cats. and then he becomes 
            part of the experience.
            ──  he'll sit on the floor and play with cats
             and the customers at the same time.
            ──  he gently ( shocker ) guides nervous people into interacting with the cats.
            ──  talks to the cats like they really understand him.
            ( they do. )
              /\____/\
            > •       •    <   riku will sometimes absentmindedly purr 
            while petting the cats and customers definitely notice.
            ──  has a habit of mirroring cat behavior. 
            ( stretching, lounging, pretending not to hear someone 
            when they're clearly talking to him, slow blinking, etc. )
            ──  in cat form, riku gets in trouble for playfully 
            roughhousing with the cats a little too much.

/ᐠ - ˕ -マ Ⳋ riku's hybrid traits are impossible to hide with how expressive he is.
            ──  t͟a͟i͟l͟:  absolute traitor. gives away everything.
            flicking when annoyed, wrapping around people when
            clingy, and puffing up when startled.
            ──  p͟u͟r͟r͟i͟n͟g͟:  god he purrs so LOUD. mostly during 
            physical contact. especially after he calms down
            after being annoying ( loving ) all day.
            ──  zero sense of personal space.
            ──  play biting + grabbing. just instinctual, especially
            when he's excited or happy. ( so all day every day. )
            ──  clingy ❕️ if anyone tries to leave mid 
            interaction, he will latch on for dear life. will
            most likely ( definitely ) sink his claws into skin.
            ──  headbutts HARD. he's so full of love and will
            risk cracking his skull because to him, it's worth it
