Summary: Companion piece to
Not So Silent - Mistoffelees' thoughts on Tugger.
Disclaimer: I hereby disclaim.
The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore!
The look on Tugger's face was priceless when he said that. No one ever accused him of being a bore.
Then his eyes flashed with mischief, and Mistoffelees grinned impudently before taking off at a run, Tugger hot on his heels. They both knew that Tugger could catch him easily - but where was the fun in that?
Tugger nuzzles the back of Mistoffelees' neck fondly once he catches his wayward companion. He'd never go so far as to say 'I love you', but Mistoffelees knows anyway.
It's in the way Tugger will spend half the night chasing some girl, only to leave her hanging if Mistoffelees turns up with that look in his eye.
It's in the way Tugger knows exactly how to make Mistoffelees yowl, and takes great delight in doing so.
It's in the way Tugger gently bites his ear when they're together, knowing how sensitive Mistoffelees' ears are.
They curl up together, sated, and Mistoffelees smiles. Tugger can be so predictable at times.
But that's how they both like it.
