Brazilian Munkupounce is rather adorable. Munkustrap just keeps making eye contact with him and smiling, and they have their little inside jokes....

Pounce understands his little looks and gestures, and copies him...

... and they're such good buddies that Munk will definitely let him and Tumble get away with anything, right?

... oh.

betrayal.

He can't believe it. He has to stop and check. Munkustrap won't even look at him.

But all is soon forgiven. He spots a leg! He can cuddle the leg.

Munkustrap spotted the incoming boy and was expecting him to go between the legs - shifting his weight to give him room - but a leg cuddle is good too. He welcomes him in and gives him a pat.

They're good friends again!

Brazil 2010: probably Julio Mancini as Munkustrap and Rodrigo Werneck as Pouncival.

Photos so you can properly appreciate the cute:

hello i have a very important announcement

a kitten needs to be petted????

he needs all the love—and she needs all the spotlight so she can stare into the audience's soul in cryptid fashion and get all the attention.

.... it's okay, Carbuckety can get more than one chin-touch.

Alexander Auler as Munkustrap, Riccardo Sinisi as Carbuckety—in his final performance not only in that role but onstage in the Vienna revival! so he has reason to need extra onstage cuddles!—and Anastasia Bertinshaw as Jemima. Two days before close—24/6/22—filmed by @cryptidvoidwritings and @falasta, and giffed with permission.

Kitten is feeling emotional. He needs a backrub. (With a bit of claw in it.)

(Well, it's the end of his final show in the Vienna production, so. He just needs lots of pettings.)

ok so who wants platonic tuggerpounce h/c after pounce has been whumped by macavity because pounce is engaged to macavity's brother and he's going to take out all his resentment on him now he's got him and forget all that the point is h/c cuddles and whump and also agonised munkustrap trying to fix it from a distance. plus background tuggershanks. and magic rings of morse-like communication.

also tugger is werewolf and munk and pounce can shapeshift into actual cats or humans or anthro cats because what is a beauty and the beast AU if the beast and beauty can't retain a bit of non-human afterwards.

yes ok good that's what i thought

(cw for mention of recent sexual assault, sorry pounce. also obvs pounce is a young adult here, not an actual child, despite tugger calling him kiddo all the time.)

also. also pounce thinks it's very important you all know how indignant he is over the fact that he has fleas ok.

---

(brief sample:)

“First things first,” Tugger said cheerfully to the air, “you stink. Bath for you, kiddo.”

He strolled over to the bed, shrugging his cloak off his shoulders, and deposited it and his precious burden on the bed together.

The cat stared up at him from the cavern of its folds, ears half laid back and fur bristling so much it almost obscured the sharp angles of ribs and hip bones.

You wouldn’t even try to touch a real cat, if it had looked at you with that much fight-or-flight. But Pouncival was in there somewhere—who knew how deeply—and he’d come to Tugger. After Tugger had changed into his wolf shape and chased away the stray dogs who’d been hassling him, after almost an hour of lounging around outside the crevice where he’d wedged himself, looking non-threatening and making soft reassuring noises and letting Pounce drink in his scent. Eventually, eventually , he’d crawled out from under that pile of crates and huddled desperately up against Tugger’s flank.

He was still there.

“You’ve got fleas,” Tugger informed him. “Trust me, I’m an expert.”

He blew the shivering lump a kiss and strolled away from the bed, shedding his outer layers and plopping his boots down by the door.

(His ring was still vibrating, because Munk couldn’t take a hint. Tugger had lost count of the pulses so who knew what he was saying. Probably the obvious. Lots of desperate things.)

“Easier to get rid of them if you change back to human shape,” he added casually, downing a glass of water from the washstand then filling a shallow bowl. “Better hope you didn’t grab any ticks, by the way. The forests around here have some beauties. I got a couple last week, right up by my nadgers. Evil little buggers. Long fur in long grass is no joke, I’m telling you. If you don’t drink I’m telling Munk on you,” he added.

He wasn’t moving his hand fast, as he pushed the bowl toward Pouncival.

Pouncival flinched back automatically, all the same.

Tugger’s heart clenched. He poked his tongue out.

“Promise I didn’t gob in it.”

Pouncival still wouldn’t meet his eyes, but the cringe in his body language was now apologetic as much as it was fearful. Tugger didn’t like it any better.

But at least he crept forward, and lapped at the water.

Tugger’s other hand flexed in his lap, fighting the urge to reach out and touch.

Even as a cat Pouncival was always noisy. He made all sorts of sounds, all sorts of expressions and chatterings, no matter what mood he was in. But now, he was absolutely silent: Tugger had heard nothing from him but a couple of defensive hisses, right before he’d shot in under those crates.

It was wrong. Everything about this was wrong.

But he’d known that from the moment Munkustrap had contacted him via the rings more than a month ago, to say that Macavity had taken his betrothed.

“Well, hey, I guess it’s handy to have a wandering hero about the place after all.”

One of Pouncival’s ears pricked up—a faint puzzlement, a faint lopsidedness. A faint trace of him.

Tugger grinned at him, and said, “Hey, you wanna—?”

Footsteps and a metal clanking sounded in the corridor outside, and the door handle turned. In a blur of panic, Pouncival disappeared under the bed.

… why wasn’t Munkustrap here. Tugger was not cut out for this sensitive comforting crap.

He and Pounce always had got on well, but you couldn’t really seduce a guy when he was the son of your not-so-casual regular hookup, and you couldn’t seduce or annoy him into a good humour when he was a quivering wreck who’d almost certainly been raped over and over for weeks. And seduction and annoyance were 80% of Tugger’ toolkit for making people get over bad shit.

In short, this whole situation was an attack on him personally .

The landlady’s sons dragged the buckets of hot water over to the tub in one corner of the room, while Tugger lounged on the bed, flirted carelessly, and incidentally distracted attention from any signs of cat.

“Didn’t you have a bath just this morning?” panted one lad, disgruntled as he dragged into place the screen which sectioned off the bathing area from the view of the door and most of the room.

(There were fleas in the bedding at this place already, so Tugger wasn’t about to feel guilty for bringing in stray animals who might or might not also be cute but traumatised boys.)

“What can I say?” replied Tugger, with automatic arrogance; “looking this good takes work, baby.”

If he’d actually been listening he would have despaired of himself—that banter wouldn’t impress a twelve-year-old—but all his attention was on his senses, not his tongue. He couldn’t smell or hear so keenly in this shape as when he was a wolf, but everything in him was focussed on a small furry shivering lump under the bed.

The boys left.

Tugger flopped onto his back, and looked at the ceiling.

The ring quivered on his finger. Munkustrap, asking.

Tugger tuned it out—it wasn’t like he knew any more than Munkustrap did anyway—and stared at the ceiling, eyes half-lidded.

He’d been hunting for traces of Macavity, of Pouncival, for weeks. He’d found nothing. Now here Pouncival was, cat-shaped, starving, in the middle of a nothing-much town.

The big question was: where was Macavity?

How long since Pounce had got away? How had he got away? Where was Macavity? Was he on their trail? How quickly would Tugger have to—

The lump under the bed stirred.

“Do you even want a bath?” Tugger asked of the ceiling, “because if you don’t, I’m gonna be on that like a shot. You should’ve seen the fish that man at the corner of Chancegate and High tried to sell me this afternoon, it was… well, high .”

The twin triangles of ears rose up over the side of the bed.

(... he was standing on his hind legs . Exposing his belly!)

Tugger flopped his head sideways to look at the beloved asymmetrical face, and cocked an eyebrow.

… Pouncival’s eyes dropped, and his ears flicked backwards.

“... okay. Bath,” Tugger pointed left, “or no bath?” he pointed right.

Pouncival glanced almost longingly toward the left, but then lingered in the middle, staring at the quilt.

Tugger huffed out air at him. “Just go take a bath, babes.” He sat up, rolling his body away at the same time so he wasn’t suddenly looming over the cat. “That soap should take care of the crawlies. Yowl if you want me.”

… fell kinda flat.

He didn’t look back. He was busy at the table with his maps. If Pouncival had turned up here, and now, then that meant… all these trajectories and routes he’d plotted on the map, when he was trying to find them… not this or that, but maybe up there in the northern mountains… or had he fled down the river, and come up from there? Timing, timing… how long would it have taken him? Had it been all on foot? All on paws? How long since he’d…

… how long had he been starving?

George Maniadis continues to ask his castmates their favourite/least favourite thing about the show, as the Vienna production approaches its end.

23 June 2022: he's usually Alonzo, but playing his final Admetus cover on this night. Matthew Levick is in (presumably) his final Mistoffelees and is therefore too tired to answer, and Riccardo Sinisi in his last Carbuckety—and despite not being Mistoffelees, can still demand interval thigh massages from Alexander Auler.

(transcribed below the cut)

GM: Matthew, what's your favourite thing about the shwo and what's your least favourite thing about the show? ML: ... My favourite thing... is... dancing?? GM: ... ML: ... (A wild Aulerstrap appears, and bursts out laughing.) GM: Okay. What's your favourite part of the show and what's your least favourite thing about the show? AA: My favourite part of the show? GM: Or favourite thing about the show, just generally? You can say 'George Manny is my favourite one...' AA: George Manny is my favourite thing onstage.. GM: Great. Great! AA: ... but the whole... experience, everything with the whole group, is my... GM: And least favourite? AA: The stuff that's dripping down my chin for the last hour. GM: Riccardo? AA: (helpfully) It's sweat RS: Hm? GM: And this is instagram so let's make it faster, come on. Favourite thing about the show? AA: I already answered, the pay cheque. GM: The pay cheque. And least favourite thing? AA: Uhhh... the Siamese. GM: ...? GM: Ah, Siamese. Cool.

what sounds do munku and rumple make when they're having sex?

Together or separately? Because that makes a difference...!

Well, not so much with Teazer. Whoever she's with, she's much the same: noisy, giggly, talks a lot during (though not as much as Jerrie). Not dirty talk in any conventional sense, mostly just babbling. And also sometimes completely irrelevant thoughts or conversations, which some partners might find exasperating (or endearing).

Munk differs a lot according to who he's with, because the dynamics are so different and he adapts himself to the needs of that particular cat (or cats—Jellicles do polyamory, of course).

With Jerrie and Teazer, though they aren't children (obviously, if we're talking about sex), they still feel like cats he's responsible for and has to care for (and manage!). So there'd be a mix of tenderness and bossyness, a 'let me take charge of this / take care of you' attitude: soft growls and pantings and a lot of purring and praise. He'd put himself in charge of finding her limits and minding them for her.

Similarly with the other young cats—though some, like Pounce, I can see getting off more on being dominated or the size difference, so that would probably drag out a deeper register in Munk's voice, more rumbles from the chest and low groans and heavy possessing breathing close against the skin. Endearments too: baby boy, kitten, sweetheart, my boy, and so on.

With cats like Bomba or Cassandra (or, to a certain extent, Alonzo) he trusts them more to set their own limits and to look after themselves and him, so he relaxes a bit more. He's still not particularly loud but the sounds he makes are higher up in his chest and throat and mouth, pleased hums and chuckles and soft long moans.

Demeter would be similar but I think he'd be more tender and gentle with her. As for Mistoffelees, depending on which version of him you've got in your head, the dynamic could be just about any of the above!

With Tugger it's either a growly half-serious struggle for dominance, or something relaxed and playful, with laughter and eye-rolls and huffs of exasperation and fondness, and snatches of converstaion because Tugger is a talker, easing gradually into deep satisfied groans toward the end (and grumbles if Tugger's being particularly obnoxious or teasing).

And then with Skimbleshanks (and sometimes Bomba) you'd get the rare version of Munk who knows how to sub... and that's another set of noises entirely. 👀

Skimbleshanks collects the babies! Pouncival, then Sillabub. Mistoffelees is making explosions everywhere so better get them into a safe corner.

And here, 1) a Pouncival-coloured blob zooms excited circles around Deuteronomy while Munkustrap indulges him, then 2) clings to Deuteronomy's leg, and 3) bounces in excitement until a Bombalurina-coloured blob comes over to pet his ears. (It's been a long exciting night, kitten's a bit over-stimulated.)

Just so you know how adorable this Pounce is, here's what he looks like with a few more pixels:

Australasia tour 2009 (X): Caleb Bartolo as Pouncival (in the photo at least, and possibly in the gifs) Markham Gannon as Skimbleshanks, and possibly Alyse Jai Davies as Sillabub.

Munkustrap being a dad and loving it. Look at him beaming as he tries to wrestle the kitten deluge under control! Victoria has called dibs on the Munkulegs and will fight anybody who tries to get close. Where did Bill Bailey go oh there he is, better grab hold of his scruff to keep him still, he's looking a bit excitable. Carbuckety, no, don't yoink the Jemimacat, Jemima leave some fur on the poor man's arm please. And bonus - because Jalonzo is looking very elegant and prim in that first gif, doing a bit of lounging and preening - Demelonzo tidying themselves and each other behind the annoying sticker that I cropped out of the kitten gif.

2020 Asia tour: Rafe Watts as Munkustrap, Ella Nonini as Demeter, Jal Joshua as Alonzo, Caitlin New as Tantomile, Aaron Lynch as Coricopat, Taylor Scanlan as Carbuckety, Anina Pletscher as Jemima, Tyler Lotzof as Victoria, Kade Hughes as Bill Bailey, and Thomas Inge as Admetus. (X)

And when the kittens are unleashed....

Must. Touch. Every. Baby.

The girls: Electra (Anina Pletscher) with blonde braids and a grey top, Victoria (Tyler Lotzof) beside her in a black top with a bun, and Jemima (Holly Willock) with a blonde ponytail and blue top.

All the boys seem to have decided on black today, but: Bill Bailey (Kade Hughes) is first to reach him then ducks behind his legs, almost missing out on a touch in his hurry; Carbuckety (Jal Joshua) with the long hair sits up and gets a nice head pat and scritch, and George (Taylor Scanlan) is last and has to wait his turn. And Mistoffelees (Xavier Pellin) pops in at the end with his back to the camera, presumably having disposed of Deuteronomy's mask and hoping for more pats himself.

Have some adorable Munkupounce, courtesy of Alexander Auler and Matthew Levick (who are a couple offstage)! This is season 3 of the Vienna revival, and Matthew is a swing this season instead of being the first cast Bill Bailey. So far he's been on as Carbucketty, Alonzo, Coricopat, Bill Bailey, and Mistoffelees. Alex commented, "super proud of my boy for crushing the swing life".

3 October 2021 (X).
