🥚may i have a strange little mammal of some sort?

Oh, sure

The maned rat!

(Lophiomys imhausi)

The only known mammal to date, at least that we know of, that co-opts toxins from a plant to make itself venomous. The maned rat chews on the bark from Acokanthera schimperi trees, mixes it with its saliva and coats itself in the toxins, just a few milligrams is deadly enough to kill a human.

my love is mine all mine

#i got a cat at the start of september #and hes become my whole world i just love him #i know this comes across as a memorial post but no hes very much alive and happy #i just love him an exhorbitant amount and take lots of comfort in his fluffy body #his name is wizard but i call him a variety of other names like:#wiz #mister man #mister magic #mister magic man #bubba/bubby #he likes to bite at my feet when im late giving him breakfast #and he purrs so loud and snuggles up with me in bed #he likes to sit in my bathroom sink for some reason #and likes to lick my kitchen sink #he watches the washing machine while its on #and has a hammock he dozes in every day #i love him excessively #and spoil him very much

hey dusty I'm here to push my Spock purring agenda on you. thoughts?

of course <33 he's the og catboy. now for a transporter malfunction so they all purr:

i like to think jim is DEEP in that cat brain (not because the transporter malfunctioned any differently for him as opposed to bones. but because he is just Like That honestly). bones is the sort of... almost humanly intelligent flavor of cat. except he retains his 24/7 anxiety and jumps three feet every time someone sneezes too suddenly. and jim knocks shit off spock's counter all the fucking time so bones just eats shit all the fucking time lmfao

#star trek #star trek fanart #mcspirk #mcspirk fanart #star trek the original series #star trek tos #spirk #spirk fanart #mckirk #mckirk fanart #spones #leonard mccoy #bones mccoy #spock #jim kirk #mcspurrk #that's it that's the tag for this now #dust trek hcs #yes jim is perfectly capable of doing the graceful cat thing and perfectly vaulting onto spock's dresser.#he was just huffy bc spock wasn't petting him lmao. he needs the attention <33333 #bones on the other hand. SO BAD at doing the graceful cat thing #yes he can jump. No he cannot aim. he leaps like one of those tiny frogs that evolved to be so small they fling themselves bc they cant jum #he eats shit ALL THE TIME (mainly because of jim lmfao) but that one time he tried to get out of spock's way on the ground but failed that #MISERABLY lolll and spock stepped on his tail and spock felt so bad about it he scritched him behind the ears for twenty minutes #cats #tos #spock is like...catnip for cat!mckirk bc he PURRS and he's warm and he gives the best scritches #also jim will not hesitate to scratch a bitch if provoked but bones just does the batting paw thing because he's a doctor not a cat dammit #he feels bad about scratching people even though he is literally a cat xDD

The most labrador coded guy, somebody call him a good boy

#UTDR #UTMV #Cross Sans #Consider this a small apology for all the awful dad stuff I am doing to this guy #I wanted to draw more but I am so tired today -A-#Thinking about how if they were animals or wereanimals or something like that #Cross would be a big-ish scary looking dog #Who wants to be pet so bad but doesn't let people near him #And when he finally lets someone pet him he probably whines the whole time and his tail thumps around furiously #Also Killer is a cat who can't purr unless he's in stage one #Anyway do you think Nightmare learned how to bake in his half a century?#I hope he makes cookies every once in a while and they're super nice

Purring had always been a comfort to him.

He knew why, of course. Purring released endorphins throughout a Mobian’s system that soothed anxiety and even had a healing effect. He had done the research one day when he was bored and his naturally curious mind wanted to know why a simple rumbling sensation so easily lulled him to sleep.

But he never really liked that answer for some reason. It was too impersonal.

Sometimes, back when he was alone, he would purr when he was really hurt. When it wasn’t something he could just walk off.

He’d crawl to the nearest hidey hole, curl up as tight as he possibly could, and just purr.

It was forced and scratchy, but it still made him feel better. If it made his battered body hurt a little less, he didn’t care about what it sounded like. It's not like anyone else would hear it anyway.

But then he met Sonic.

The memory was a little fuzzy considering how young he had been, but he could remember all the important parts.

Sonic saving him from the creeps who were beating him, finding the damaged Tornado on the beach, and the hedgehog offering to take the kit along with him.

He remembered how Sonic had been haloed in the sunlight as his hand reached down towards him. He took his hand, a mixture of anxiety and wonder swirling in his stomach as the Tornado flew further and further from West Side Island.

He hadn’t purred in a long time when it happened, even when he was far into traveling with Sonic, he didn’t purr.

He didn’t think he needed to anymore, he wasn’t hurt anymore and any nightmare he had were chased away by Sonic reaching down and scritching behind his ear. The hedgehog had promised him that no one was going to hurt him anymore, not while he was around.

One night, however, Sonic had gotten hurt.

He refused to see a doctor, saying how he could just walk it off, but the kit knew that wasn’t true.

So that night, when he saw the hedgehog wincing in pain as he tried to settle down for the night, he curled up next to him and started purring.

He hoped it would help the one who gave him everything he never thought he deserved feel better, he owed it to him.

Sonic saved him from his home island, the least he could do was make him hurt less.

And it worked, much to his delight.

So as Tails laid here, wrapped in an embrace that was somehow so loose and so tight at the same time, he purred.

It hurt, it hurt a lot, but he still did it.

If it would help make his big brother feel better, he would do it as long as he possibly could.

He would purr, even as Sonic’s voice died down and his hand stopped petting him…

He would purr, even as his own body slowly gave up on him…

And he would purr, even if the body he clung to couldn’t feel it anymore.

It was the least he could do for the one who gave him everything…

Even when he deserved nothing.

#retaliation against nixoon and myla #if i have to be devastated beyond repair twice in one day so do you /lh #this is really short- like 500 words #wrote it while listening to one of my cats purr #anyway enjoy #miles tails prower #sonic the hedgehog #unbreakable bond #the brothers ever #fic

Serendipity

"Billy wasn't sure what the creature ransacking his train car was.” Alternatively, Billy feeds a stray and ends up with a roommate.

WC: 1215

Serendipity (n): the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way.

──── ∘°❉°∘ ────

Billy wasn't sure what the creature ransacking his train car was. Granted, the train car wasn't in the most hidden place ever, but he had made sure to ward it against most creatures. The ward would have made one unable to see the train, and if they somehow saw it anyways, they would have been turned around. He usually was pinged if anything passed his wards, which was why he was so blindsided to see something moving around in his train car. It seemed that this one had slipped through his protections.

The creature was strange and almost hard to look at directly. Its blinding white hair moved independent from the wind and twined around its long, pointed, mint colored ears. It was also small, small enough that Billy thought it could comfortably fit into his cupped hands, and wearing some sort of skin tight suit, black with a stripe of silver along its torso. Or what appeared to be its torso, Billy couldn't really tell when its lower body faded into a long tail.

From his perspective, it seemed to be rummaging through where he usually hides his food, showing slivers of its white paws. Did it pass through the barriers he set because it was hungry?

Billy approached the creature quietly, making sure not to get too close, he wouldn't want to startle it. His efforts were in vain though as the creature snapped its head towards him. It's glowing eyes like headlights, as if staring into Billy’s soul. The green in its eyes swirling hypnotically as the creature bristled at his presence.

Billy watched, amused but vigilant, as the creature puffed up like a cat. Even going so far as to swat a couple times in his direction. So far, it was quite harmless, but the buzzing in the back of his head that he usually equated to Solomon told him to be careful.

Billy slowly dropped to his knees, mindful of the creature's reaction, and shifted his bag to his front. He shuffled through his bag and brought out the small piece of jerky he was saving for later, sliding it slowly towards the creature.

The creature tilted its head, staring at the jerky suspiciously before taking a few steps to paw at it. It apparently passed its test as it devoured the jerky surprisingly fast for its small size. While it seemed to be starving, thankfully it didn't reflect onto its body. It wasn't gaunt or thin, but actually quite plump. Perhaps it just didn't eat for a day or two?

Billy took a small step forward, then a few more when he realized the creature was focused on eating. “So,” He began softly, the creature startling as if it was just realizing he was so close. “What are you doing here, little guy?”

It stared at him silently before once again tilting its head. It was cute, Billy realized. The chubby cheeks and button nose paired with big, shiny eyes made it endearing to look at. His expression melted slightly as he took a closer look at the creature.

The creature's ear flicked as it padded up to him, paws on Billy’s knees. It let out an unintelligible sound, layered and harsh to Billy's ear, yet somehow melodious. Billy blinked, not expecting that noise. The creature looked at him almost expectantly, eyes shining brightly.

Billy hesitantly brought his knuckles closer to the creature, feeling its cold nose as it sniffed him. It was clearly unimpressed and trilled for more food. Billy chuckled under his breath as he brought another piece of jerky to the needy creature. It gobbled it up swiftly, looking up at him and once again begging for more, its eyes almost sparkling.

Billy folded under the cuteness overload and retrieved a sandwich from his bag, splitting it in half. He was worried that it would eat more than it could handle if he kept feeding it. He knew very well what that felt like.

The creature blinked at him, once, twice, before giving him a small, pleasant trill and headbutted his fingers. Billy cautiously set his hand over its silky hair? Fur? All he knew was that it felt divine, though not in the godly way.

“What are you?” Billy asked as he wove his fingers through its hair, genuinely curious on what species the creature was. He had inputted a lot of creatures in his ward but he had no clue what this one was. The tingling at the back of his head spoke otherwise, Solomon knowing very well what it was. He could transform and ask Solomon, since he couldn't really speak to him unless he was Captain Marvel, but that would just scare the creature.

It gave him a look before resuming its lunch, finishing it in record time. Apparently, it deigned him worthy of its presence on his lap as it kneaded his legs then curled up onto them. The purring surprised him, pausing when the creature gave him an impatient look when he halted his ministrations on its hair.

He resumed, of course. Why wouldn't he? It was a nice reprieve from fighting villains as Captain Marvel and watching out for himself when he was on the streets. It was just a quiet moment between him and the strange creature that broke into his home.

…He hadn't realized how lonely he was before this.

He had friends, of course. Freddy, Tawky Tawny, and the Justice League. But… this just wasn't the same. As good as a friend Freddy was, he doubted that he would be willing to just sit and enjoy each other's company silently. Freddy was a huge superhero fan and couldn't help but talk about them in excitement. Not to mention his analyses on Billy’s techniques as Captain Marvel.

The Justice League wasn't any better. They had a professional relationship, thinking of him more as a coworker than a friend. The times he tried to deepen their friendship by inviting them out, he was unfortunately turned down. It seemed that they got along better when they were in battle than not.

Billy usually went to Tawky Tawny for advice, but Tawky Tawny never turned down the opportunity to just spend time in the other’s company. Unfortunately, those times were far and few between, usually because Tawky Tawny was traveling or busy with something else.

With this creature— he’d have to name it eventually, Billy thought absently—all that was expected of him was companionship, nothing more.

Billy felt a cool paw pat his face, the creature looking up at him concerned. His eyes widened before he let out a huff, ruffling its hair. The creature let out a disgruntled chuff and phased through his hands then batted at them, settling down once more on his lap once it was done.

It hadn't been with him long, all he had done was give it some food, and it was already trying to comfort him. Admittedly, it wasn't the best comfort, it stopped once he focused on it, but it wasn't something he expected from a creature he met not an hour ago.

Billy smiled, eyes soft. Perhaps it could stay, if only for a while.
