> Nepeta: Meet your meowrail for the first time!

[bestestfurrend]

[It's a large, imposing hive that Nepeta is standing in front of, her eyes wide as she stares up at it. Pounce stands next to her, a smart green ribbon tied around her neck for the occasion - Nepeta has had to straighten it more than once, though, because it's been a long journey to get here.

She's so excited! For the first time ever she'll see her moirail in person! Her own moirail, bossy as he could be, and she just can't wait for him to open the door so she can fling herself at him.

Sure enough the door slowly starts creaking open, only for a white centaur to appear behind it - oh, yes, of course! Equius' butler lusus, Aurthour! She's heard lots about him, and Pounce is already purring their business at him when Nepeta spies a shadow in the background, looming yet apparently unsure whether to step forward or not.

She knows who that is!

The kittytroll launches herself through the air, and to her surprise the second before she hits him, Equius goes completely limp, so the two of them go sliding right down the entranceway together.]

Found you!!

[...wow. She can understand his need for constant towels now.]

[That sure was an adorable little insight he had gotten there. He's just smiling at the camera, motioning with a nearly empty bottle of faygo.]

Was that you bros meeting for the first time ever?

[Equius doesn't feel any particular need to be embarrassed with Gamzee. They've done more embarrassing things together, certainly! He does, however, have slightly bluer cheeks than normal when he responds.]

Yes. She came to visit me, and I wasn't prepared for pouncing.

[420]

You're lucky you were close enough that you could all do that.

[A line delivered with absolutely no hidden barbs. Considering he had never been in a position to meet anyone, there might have been a chance of it coming across as grumpy, but honestly, Gamzee is just really glad for Equius that he had had that chance.]

[If anyone else had said it, Equius would have been closely examining the statement for underlying nastiness. But because it's Gamzee, he just smiles softly and nods.]

We were. We were very lucky.

[bestestfurrend]

It was, it was! Equius was so silly about it!

[420]

Equius is kind of a silly motherfucker even if does try to act like he ain't.

[Your pity quadrants are gossiping, Equius. Beware.]

[bestestfurrend]

Heehee, he is, he really is! But we love him anyway, yup yup.

[Equius is still a little uncertain about this whole moirail thing. Nepeta seems nice enough, and she is definitely able to calm him down when he's feeling all ragey and highbloody, but they haven't met in person yet, and the gods only know what she'll think of him when she sees him for the first time. Text and talking online don't quite convey the hulking monstrosity he is in real life, or why he always talks about needing towels.]

[Just... eugh. This could end badly.]

[Of course, he wasn't expecting her to fling herself at him like that! Thank goodness his instincts kick in and he goes limp before she hits him, or she might have shattered herself against his STRONG chest.]

Nepeta, get off at once. This is highly undignified!

[Also get off before you realize you've totally got him pinned here and he can't get up until you do.]

[bestestfurrend]

No, no, no! I am getting to meet my meowrail for the first time, I don't care about being dignified!

[Also she thinks he's grumbling just for the sake of it - he hasn't tried pushing her off, so he can't mind that much, can he?

No, she hasn't realized he can't move because of her.]

Ooh, you're bigger than I thought! Will you let me ride on your back? Then I'll be really high up!

[A loud, rumbling purr comes from the doorway, where Aurthour is indulging Pounce with some headscritches.]

Interactive

[stayb100ponyboy]

You WILL NOT ride on my back. I will never allow such a thing!

[Famous last words.]

Now get off me immediately. I command it.

[Still making no effort to push her off.]

Interactive

[bestestfurrend]

Oh my paws, you're as grumpy and bossy in purrson as you are online! It's pawesome!

[She does indeed look delighted, and wraps her arms around him - or tries to, as far as they'll go - before burying her face against his neck and making the happiest little purring noise.]

[D'aww. Cutest matesprit face.] Tavros! Hi Tavros!

[video]

[toreadorkabull]

-=you were the one just being cute=-

Hey, Nepeta.

[bestestfurrend]

[BEAM]

Did you like seeing how I met Equius fur the first time?

[video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

... what?

[video]

[toreadorkabull]

...nothing?

[video] I'm sorry, he's such a poop. Imagine him saying all this while blushing

[stayb100ponyboy]

Good.

[Video]

[shippingmath]

How cute.

[Is he being sarcastic? It's hard to tell.]

[Video]

[bestestfurrend]

It was a nice thing to get to remember! [She's in too good a mood to care too much whether he is or not.]

[Video]

[shippingmath]

Somehow, that doesn't take me by surprise.

[Video]

[bestestfurrend]

Did you have any dreams, Dirk?

[Video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[He better not be!]

Having a moirail is very important to trolls like myself. Believe me, Dirk... you wouldn't like me when I don't have a moirail.

[Video]

[shippingmath]

Bet I could handle it. Not to say that I'm wishing she wasn't here, or something. I'm sure the two of you are great for each other. You both look younger in that memory, I'm guessing this has been a long-time thing.

[Video]

[stayb100ponyboy]

I don't think so.

[Equius isn't bragging there, or trying to sound overconfident. He actually sounds a little sad. He's dangerous when he's out of control, which is something the bubble hasn't seen in a long, long time, and in a highblood rage, he could easily hurt Dirk.]

But yes. We've been moirails for a long time. They say that in troll romance, the quadrants that are meant to be are serendipitous. Nepeta is my destiny... my serendipity.
