list of ships back at ya! and also answer as many or as few as u like <3
rumplectra
jellydots
skimblegus
tuggerstrap
mistoria
mungotoria (i had to)
coricojerrie (>:D)
YOU KNOW IMMA ANSWER ALL OF THESE 😈
Rumplectra:
Can honestly say I've never heard of this ship, but it seems cute!
Jellydots:
I LOVE. I really should flesh out my hcs for these two - I just see them and like, they've been married for longer than I've been alive. No other hc crosses my mind. They're solid!
Skimblegus:
I love them and I love giving them angst. Once they get together they are inseparable and exist in their own little world.
Tuggerstrap:
One of my only real sticking hcs for Cats is that these two are brothers, so I don't ship them romantically at all 😅 That said, I'm always interested in hearing about other people's ships and hcs, especially if they're wildly different from my own!
Mistoria:
Again, I usually see them as brother and sister, except in the 2019 film! So I answered for that! The potential for angst there is so great, and they're super fun to think about! I feel like that would be such a wild ride.
Mungotoria:
I know this ship is your baby and I'm very interested in hearing your thoughts about it. This is actually a very fun ship! I have a different main Jerrie ship tho, which I currently have all-encompassing brainrot for.
Coricojerrie:
I love them so much and I love you for asking for them. They're JUST SO GOOD. They're both the perfect weirdo for each other and so devoted I sometimes cry 😭

All the Jellicles I ship together (+ my headcanons for them)
Alonzostrap – With Alonzo as his right hand working alongside him as a Jellicle Protector, I think they'd get along well.
Altugger – Alonzo yearns, but his pride stops him from approaching Tugger.
Casslonzo – Good for them, being slinky together.
Munkoffelees – Yeah, Munk might also be dating his brother, but it somehow works out.
Tuggoffelees – I guess it's even with Munk since he's dating his brother too. Munk and Tugger are fine with keeping their relationships with Misto seperate, but that doesn't stop them from spending time all together.
Demestrap – Husband and wife. No qualms here.
Demelurina – Bombalurina knew Demeter longer than anyone else, but they haven't gotten married yet. Demelurinastrap do spend time together, but Munk and Bomba mostly devote their attention to Demeter.
Mungoteazer (Not related to each other) – They were conjured to life from scrap puppets, by Macavity to do his bidding. Rather than being made as siblings, they were made for each other, and it all works out.
Munkujerrie – Munkustrap has a crush on Mungojerrie, but they haven't realized their pining is mutual yet. The extent of their relationship thus far has been mostly sexual, with bits of "I love you but I can't stand you," thrown in.
Victeazer + Mungotoria – Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer may be a bad influence on Victoria, but what kitten can live without a little roving here and there? Those two are a very convincing package deal.
Platoria – Young lovers. Plato was Victoria's first mate, and she couldn't be happier. They just adore each other.
Platugger – Their relationship is mostly sexual, but there's genuine love between them. They just have to explore each other on a more serious level to realize.
Skimbledots – Aunt and uncle duo who may've adopted all of the Junkyard.
More headcanons below the cut !
There's a lot of overlapping here. Munkustrap seems to be involved in most of these, and with the busy life he leads, how could he possibly make enough time for everyone?
Well, I like to think they sometimes all spend time together. But that would be a lot to manage thinking about it now.
There's never really enough time in the night/day. So what's easier than having them all spend time together at once? Maybe not all of them at once, but different pairings for different days, depending on which lover they happen to catch that day.
These cats aren't the most picky about their partners — and they all understand they lead different lives. Living together in the Junkyard just makes it easier to manage that.
How they manage to spend time together (+ extra rambles LOL):
Demelurinastrap definitely share a den. Demeter is usually out with Bomba during the day, and Munkustrap can always come home after the night is over and curl up in bed with them if he chooses. He spends a significant amount of time there when he's not busy.
Alonzostrap sometimes do their patrols together, though Alonzo is usually in charge of the day and Munk has the night.
Alonzo is welcome to spend as much time as he pleases at his brother Misto's den, but this sometimes results in Munk dropping by while they're both around. It's not that they're uncomfortable knowing they're sharing the same cat, but I imagine they like to keep it seperate for the most part.
Tugger and Misto also share a den, and Munkustrap occasionally comes by there as well. They're less concerned to be sharing Misto, and it's not unlikely you'll find them in a cuddle puddle.
Platoria prefer one-on-one time together, so Vic-Teazer-Jerrie usually go off to do their own things instead of spending time all together.
Mungojerrie and Munkustrap's time together is often short, passionate, and rushed. They want more time together, want to try being more, but neither of them are ready to admit that yet.
(I think that's all for now? We shall see)

The One Where We Get Inside Alonzo's Head
Summary: A short glance into a morning in Alonzo’s life while the threat of Macavity is a rising one. Munkustrap and Alonzo deal with unrest from cats who distrust the ones who used to work with Macavity. Hypothetical murder is plotted. Set about two years after Grizabella’s Ball.
cw: discussions and plotting of hypothetical murder, discussion of betrayal
“Macavity is getting stronger,” Munkustrap said grimly, getting straight to the point. That was Alonzo’s second indicator something serious was wrong. The tribe’s protector loved to hear himself talk, which was fair enough because he was a fine orator. The entire tribe loved to hear him speak. The first indicator had been the instructions he’d gotten from Munkustrap about half an hour earlier to call all the cats, bar the patrolling ones and the kittens (and Jellylorum, who was currently minding them) to the Stage.
“He’s taking more and more territory and properties on the other side of the river. He’s been recruiting cats, specifically Jellicles without allegiances. He’s preparing to attack.
“No cat is to venture outside the Junkyard alone. There will be an increase in patrols— one at 9am, one at midday, one at 3pm and one at 6pm, one at 3am, plus the usual dawn and dusk patrols. There will also be one at midnight. The number of cats on each patrol will be increased from three to four.
“Cats are advised to stay in the Junkyard for their own safety, but you can of course stick to your homes instead. Kittens, unless they have homes, are no longer allowed to leave the Junkyard until Macavity is dealt with.” Munk looked around at the gathered cats and Alonzo met his gaze, blinking encouragement. “Alonzo and myself will have the patrols organised by midnight.”
“Is the Ball still going ahead?” Asparagus called. Alonzo smirked internally. Coricopat owed him a mouse— he’d told the other tom that somecat would ask that, but he’d remained unconvinced, sure that they’d obviously know the Ball wouldn’t be cancelled. They’d bet on it.
Munkustrap nodded. “Of course. Mistoffelees is going to put precautionary alarms and set-ups in case Macavity decides to interrupt again this year. We will be prepared this time. Are there any other questions?” Of course, there were.
“What about Old Deuteronomy’s safety?”
“Will the kittens be allowed to participate? It’s tradition!”
“Hardly! It isn’t safe!”
“What are we going to do about the cats who used to work for Macavity? Surely they can’t be allowed to stay. What if they’re spies?”
Alonzo rounded on Spike, who’d asked the last question. “That’s enough out of you!” he spat.
“It’s a valid question, Checkers,” the constant pain-in-his-ass drawled. “How do we know we can trust them? Why, Macavity probably fathered two of them!” Spike glanced meaningfully at Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer, the former of which had his arm around Victoria. Alonzo bared his teeth. Always hitting where it hurts.
“The cats who formerly worked with Macavity have proven their loyalty time and time again,” he ground out, “They’re nothing but faithful.”
“Of course, of course. But if one of our own cats was working for Macavity, how can we know for sure that they aren’t? Not to mention the white cat. We all know both of the mates she’s had work with Macavity, or have in the past.” Spike lifted an eyebrow at him, a challenge.
“Alonzo,” There was a warning note in Misto’s voice as he appeared next to the tom. Alonzo swished his tail angrily and stood down. “Don’t do something stupid. Don’t—”
“Don’t let my temper get the better of me, I know,” Alonzo grumbled, tail swishing, “Don’t scold me, Misto.”
Munkustrap’s voice rang out over the murmuring. “As I said, Misto is going to put precautionary measures in place to ensure everycat’s safety. Therefore, as usual, we will all be present and taking part. Macavity will not scare us into cancelling. We’ve dealt with him before, and we’ll deal with him again. As for you,” he fixed Spike with a cold gaze, “Alonzo is right. The cats who formerly worked for Macavity have proved their loyalty time—”
“You would say that, one of them is your mate!” Spike interrupted him.
“ —and time again,” Munkustrap swept on, ignoring him. His eyes flashed dangerously, and Alonzo was reminded just how formidable and authoritative their gentle protector could be. “On the other paw, to throw unfounded accusations around about another cat is quite serious. Do you have any proof of Victoria working for Macavity? I assume you do, otherwise you wouldn’t say such things. Well?” They glared at each other for a few moments until Spike finally yielded, lowering his eyes in reluctant submission.
“That’s what I thought,” Munkustrap said icily, “Are there any other questions?” His eyes swept across the gathered cats, all traces of anger in them gone as quick as it’d arrived. “No? Then this meeting is over. Patches, Coricopat, Greycat and I will take the next patrol, at 3pm. Alonzo will organise the next few, and the night watches.” He stepped down from the tyre he had been speaking to them from and made his way over to Alonzo and Misto.
“Well that was certainly eventful,” Misto muttered.
Munkustrap sighed. “You’re telling me.”
The cats around them began to disperse gradually. There was still some mutterings, and a few shot glances at Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer, Victoria and Demeter as they left or gossiped. Alonzo’s tail swished angrily as he noticed the group around Spike, all talking quietly and staring openly at Mungojerrie and Victoria.
“Look at that,” he murmured. Munk and Misto glanced in the direction he was looking in. “We’ve got trouble.”
Spike and AJ appeared to be the ringleaders. Asparagus, Victor, Tabbygirl, Murad and Jonathan were listening to them speak, though to their credit, most of them looked hesitant.
“Well at least we know Tabbygirl is only there because she fancies Spike. Murad is definitely only curious. And Victor, he feels betrayed by Plato and Socrates,” Munkustrap said quietly.
“Not good that Asparagus is there, though,” a familiar voice rumbled. Tugger approached, sliding an arm around Misto’s waist, who nodded in agreement.
“Bet you anything Patches doesn’t even realise AJ is involved in this,” Alonzo murmured. That tom’s head was too high up in the clouds to notice most things.
Misto let out a low chuckle. “Alonzo, I’m beginning to think you’re a gambling addict.”
“Excuse you, Mr. Magic Feet,” Alonzo said playfully, “At least I always win my bets!”
Munkustrap’s lips quirked up at the corners. “Alright, that’s enough of that,” he said mock-sternly. “I have to get going on patrol. ‘Lonz?”
“Yes?”
“Whatever you do, don’t put Spike and AJ together on patrol.”
“Noted. Wouldn’t have anyway.”
“Thanks. Try not to kill Spike.”
Alonzo mock-pouted. “Fine.”
Tugger smirked as the grey tom faded out of earshot. “He never said I couldn’t kill Spike.” Misto smacked his arm.
“Much as I’d like to, I don’t think Munk would forgive us.”
“He wouldn’t need to know it was you,” Alonzo mused. “I could hypothetically tell you where to hide his body.”
“Ooooh, now I’m intrigued. What has Alonzo the Good, Kind and Faithful, right-hand cat of Munkustrap, done that he knows a good place to hypothetically hide a body?” Tugger teased. Alonzo smirked.
“Wouldn’t you like to know?”
“I don’t think I want to know what’s going on here,” a gravelly voice said. The newly-arrived Admetus shook his head at them as he and Demeter joined them, chuckling.
“Oh, just discussing a good place to hide Spike’s body. Hypothetically, of course,” Misto said breezily. Demeter chuckled again.
“I like the sound of that,” she mused thoughtfully. Alonzo sighed dramatically.
“Much as I’d love to stay and keep plotting hypothetical murder, duty calls and I have several patrols to organise. I’ll talk to you all later. Admetus, can I have a word?” The two toms walked towards Alonzo’s den. Once they were out of earshot, Alonzo spoke again.
“I’m putting you on the six o’ clock patrol with Hysperia, Cassandra and Victor. I need you to talk to Victor, to set him on the straight and narrow.”
Admetus’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean? What’s he done?”
“Nothing yet,” Alonzo sighed, “But he’s getting involved with Spike and what he’s saying. I take it you didn’t see the little group surrounding him after the meeting?”
“No, I didn’t.”
“Well, Munkustrap and I think it’s serious. Munk reckons Victor feels betrayed by Plato and Socrates and that’s why he’s listening to Spike. He’s lost. I want you to talk to him. He might listen to you, and the other two will be discreet. They’ll give you privacy if you signal for it.”
“I understand. I’ll talk to him.”
“Thanks. Things could turn nasty soon. We need to try and get as many cats to see sense as possible before Spike really starts undermining Munkustrap. Victor is a good place to start.”
“Who else do we think is lending an ear to Spike, if you don’t mind my asking?” Admetus rumbled.
“Victor, Tabbygirl, Jonathan, Murad, AJ and most worryingly, Asparagus,” Alonzo answered, frowning. They arrived outside his and Cassandra’s crate. “Cass is inside, I think. I’ll tell her to give you space to talk to Victor this evening. She’ll let Hysperia know, too.”
“Right then,” Admetus stretched. “See you later.”
