Character: Rumpleteazer
Series: Andrew Lloyd Webber's
CatsCharacter Age: Unspecified, but she is a kitten
Canon: Cats is a musical about anthropomorphic cats who sing and dance...yes, that's about all. Singing, dancing, talking cats. Self-explanatory, really.
Twins, best friends and OTP all packed in one neat bundle of mischief, Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer are about as close as any two kittens can get. Tricksters, thieves and clowns, they spend their days wreaking havoc and inevitably getting caught.
Rumpleteazer is irrepressibly cheerful, cocky, and bouncy, and has a penchant for trying to steal shiny things, especially pearls. She is, however, a complete failure as a thief, and tends to burst into giggles halfway through the twins' operations, which makes it rather hard for them to stay unnoticed.
The accent is canon.
Sample post:
Oi! Oi! You inna lake! Now, lookit, you're an...octopussy thing, which is a fish, right? An' I'm a cat. You got it the wrong way 'round. I'm supposed to eat you. An' I'm not goin' for a swim, no matter how sparkly y'try t'make y'self. I don't like water at all. Not even shiny...shiiiiiiiny...are those pearls onna bottom?...so shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny...
...Jerrie says I ain't allowed to try to take shinies without him.
What d'you mean, can't take the thief outta the kitten? I ain't a thief! We're not murderers, neither. You got the wrong idea, guv! We are per-feck-ly innocent kittens, never did nothin' wrong...'cept there was that incident with the pearls, an' the roast...an' the vase...an' we didn't mean to make water come through the roof. It's wrongful imprisonment to keep us here all alone with the octopussies an' the trees an' no shiny things at all except for those pearls. An' they're inna water. An' the birdies. The dretful birdies. They oughtn't t'say those kinds o'things about a kitten. I never done none o' that. An' where've you put Mungojerrie? He's somewhere aroun' here, right?
...Did you drop him inna lake? With the octopussy?
Ew. I'm gonna be the one who has t'clean th'lake water off of 'im, y'know? An' that's gotta taste dretful. Mistreatment of pris'ners! Coppers ain't allowed t'do things like that t'innocent kittens! Y'better give 'im back, or I'm tellin' - I'm tellin' - you're gonna be in big trouble, lady! I got claws! There ain't nothin' worser you c'n do to me! You wouldn't dare!

That's a lie. That's a horrible, cruel lie. You ain't gone and messed with the milk.
