no but i can like see a whole au
yano like the ABO aus or certain D/s aus
where people are either a pet or a master
and pets have animal characteristics i.e. cat ears/tail dog ears/tail etc and whichever animal characteristics a pet has actually says a lot about their personality
and james was fucking
put onto the street by his last master who was a complete ass or something and james literally has nowhere else to go because once a pet reaches 18 they are given away from their family to a master with a dowery like it’s an arranged marriage
but then somehow michael fucking comes along and he’s never had a pet because he’s never had the time or he’s moved around too much or he’s worked too much or something
but he sees this cat pet sitting on a fucking box that says take me home and his eyes are so fucking blue and he looks so fucking sad that he needs to do it
and james’ old master was abusive, and michael has never had a pet before so he doesn’t know how they’re meant to be treated and he treats james more like an equal than anything else while they sort out what to do with james and this new relationship that the two of them have
becuse actually michael brought james home to give him a place to stay and be nice
but james thought otherwise so he kept trying to repay michael with sex and by doing all the cooking and cleaning and shit
and james is like fucking washing the floor or something so he’s proper bent over and michael has a pretty firm grip and james assosciates grips like those with something completely else so when michael touches him to stop him he just fucking jumps and shies away from it and he is so fucking frightened that that’s how michael works it out
because up until then he hadn’t realized what it was like for james
because yes he’d been told that james was kicked out and that their relationship wasn’t exactly ideal
james hadn’t told him how bad it actually was
and this is coincidentally the exact moment that michael realizes just how protective he feels of james and how badly he really wants james to be his
so he fucking
leaves
because he’s silly
he just leaves without explaining anything
and that puts james into a right state
he thinks he’s done something wrong and that michael has left him too and james’ also grown to be super attached to michael even though really they aren’t anything to each other than differently oriented roommates
so james is in a fucking state when michael gets back
but the point is that michael is back and jamesi s just so fucking relieved to see him
and he also has this box
this slim square leather box and james has seen on of those before
and michael sits him down on the sofa and rubs behind his ears and explains exactly how he feels
abotu how he wants to protect james and care for him and he loves him and is in love with him and his mind and the way his tail twitches while he sleeps and all these little things
and he says he wants to try and that he wants to learn how to be a good master for james
and in the end
james is fucking
wearing
michael’s collar.
