CATS APARTMENT AU HCS!!

CATS APARTMENT AU HCS!!

Victoria is a ballerina and during one of her first performances once she moved into the apartment complex literally all the other cats showed up. One of like the other dancers was like “Yo who tf are all those people cheering for you specifically” and she was like “oh my neighbors :] !!!” meanwhile in the crowd it’s all of them but specifically Jemima being like “YEAHHHHHHH WHOOOOOO🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️💕”

Gus’s apartment is like kinda cluttered because he has a lot of stuff from his youth but jellylorum helps him keep it neat (yall gus makes me wanna cry I love that guy)

Munkustrap is such an upstanding neighbor. Like he is the PERFECT NEIGHBOR. The kinda guy to offer to help you with groceries when he sees you struggling while walking up the stairs. You’d never ever in your life have a noise complaint. And I know his apartment is like impeccably put together mostly for Jenny’s sake.

And then there’s his brother. His place is actually very clean. I don’t feel like it’s messy, BUT. IK he’s petty. Tugger not rude or anything but oh he’s petty. He and alonzo have the craziest beef because ONCE. ONE TIME alonzo was being just like a little loud when he was doing something. (I hc in this au to be like into music so probably that) and ever since then it was WAR. Everyone has just coped with it. They’re like two unstoppable forces there’s no end in sight

I feel like the exterior of the apartment is very beautiful actually, like they all one day pitched it and helped old D make it look better cause it was a decently old building for a while. And i fear it would’ve been after Macavity tried to burn the building down. and im making my jokey jokes but any angst writers that see a vision this is for yall

On a completely different note. YALL. CAN. NOT. TELL. ME. that my boy pouncival doesn’t have the room of your average early 2000s skater boy. I’m taking dirty socks, messy clothes, just random ass stuff all around his place. Like you walk in and you’re for sure slipping on a banana peel or something.

Also he just is a skater boy. Like he’ll try and do sick tricks on the railings on the outside of the building and it’s a miracle there’s been no casualties.

also my asks box is open if yall wanna send ur hcs cause i really wanna hear em :3

For me, I just notice it randomly. Like there’s this one scene in Mr Mistoffelees near the end where Munkustrap does this little jump with Misto. And I just caught it out of the corner of my eye. You just spot it I guess.

Here’s what I’m talking about btw

So, question for the cats people:

How do you find all these cute background moments?

I’ll be watching someone and think “Oh, what are you doing there, buddy” but then they just walk to the other side of the stage and sit down again.

I just end up getting distracted and watching the front instead so like- what’s the strat? There’s gotta be one. I feel like I’m missing something.

"Cats would be a great pick for one of those 'everybody lives in the same apartment' aus" I think before belatedly realizing that that's literally half of the plot of Cats

Back when i was just getting into cats i’d only seen a couple clips on youtube and i was convinced that mr mistoffelees was suppoused to be deaf/mute since he didn’t talk at all and communicated mostly through gestures, dance, and physical contact with other cats and now i’m just attached to it

A tiny collection of gifs I got from 1998 Cats

First, we gotta discuss Chorus Tugger: he has been and always will be Tugger. Those HANDS. The way he just rests them on Asparagus' shoulder like that.

As there are a few gifs, I'll put the rest under a read more thingie.

Managed to get Tumblebrutus' reaction to Misto's oopsie at the start of Gumbie Cat.

Bomba trying her hardest not to laugh at Misto. Meanwhile, Demeter looks very concerned, and Jelly is very "giving you judgement eyes right now".

You want sassy Misto? Specifically, Misto's sassiest, gayest leg lift? Now you can have it in gif form!

Misto, sweetie, are you okay?

Coricopat is completely enthralled by Misto's dancing in Misto's big number, and who wouldn't be? He has HEART EYES.
