|Demeter|-
Gilbert: Oh yes, I'm very excited. I think we're on a good path with them. But my ideas are... extensive, I guess? Something I'd like to discuss over PM when the time comes.
-
Rumpleteazer: Demeter absolutely does not like her. She's very cautious around her, and she even fears her quite a bit. She's civil, of course, but... tense. Of course she doesn't
know that Teazer is still seeing Macavity, but she gets the feeling Teazer isn't being entirely honest with the Tribe. Demeter doesn't spend a lot of time around her. She smells something on her that just puts her on edge. I'm not sure how Teazer feels about the rumors of Demeter's past with Macavity, or what she knows about them at all. Not sure if it would affect her relationship with Mac.
-
Jennyanydots: Demeter considers Jenny her foundation, I think. She goes to her a lot. I'd like to play around with Deme feeling guilty over being so close to both Jenny and Bomba, even if neither of them are bothered by it (especially since they're friends with each other). Deme stresses a lot when all three of them are together, trying to make sure she gives them equal attention. She would definitely go to great lengths to care for Jenny if she came to her in distress. And she'd welcome the chance to shut out her own issues in order to help others. So it'd be fun to play with her stressing a lot over not wanting to address her own grievances, and using Jenny's distress to do that.
-
Keiiji: No, I don't see much, either. He's intimidating, but she worries that his scars (the little she's seen of them) are from something darker than street fights. She hasn't spent enough time around him to sense any sort of suffering in him, so she really is mostly just wary of him. Especially since he has the 'misunderstood bad boy' reputation in the Junkyard. She's had her fill of bad boys. She's asked Munkustrap about him a few times, but she honestly doesn't know enough about him to have a solid opinion, but she definitely doesn't feel comfortable enough talking with him for very long.
-
Admetus: Yeah, oh man, Demeter does NOT want him around, ever. It doesn't have as much to do with his personality as one might think. She just thinks it's downright dangerous for any Henches to ever be in the Junkyard, and does not believe for a second that Macavity means for him to be an actual 'olive branch' between the Tribes. He is a spy, that's it. And she argues with Munkustrap about this a lot. She does. not. want. him around anymore, ever. Especially after Macavity's attack at the Ball. She thinks he absolutely had a lot to do with that. That being said - yeah, she doesn't like his personality much at all. She thinks he's very predatory and she avoids him at all costs. I'm not sure how much would change when she learns about the relation. Truth be told, he could save Electra from a burning building and she'd find a way to blame him for letting it happen. ACTUALLY THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PLOT POSSIBILITY.
-
Fenrir: Well, I'm all for any and all characters screwing up Demeter, you know me! I need to keep thinking of more reasons for Demeter to have to leave the Junkyard, especially since she's going to start thinking she sees Macavity all over the city.
-
Purrgatori: Nope, can't think of anything for them. But she wouldn't like her. Because of the Hench-ness, obviously, but also just... a feeling. Demeter would think of her as very harsh.
|Arnbjorn|-
Gilbert: He'd probably/definitely be involved in anything with Gilbert and Macavity, but mostly just as muscle. He doesn't think much when work is involved. Though that doesn't mean Gilbert wouldn't be traumatized by him! But Arnbjorn definitely wouldn't initiate anything to traumatize him.
-
Rumpleteazer: He definitely knows of her, and they probably have had a few casual conversations. He makes a point to know everyone affiliated with the Henches. He certainly would not like her, ah... inclination towards the finer things. He's a very simple tom with a very simple lifestyle.
-
Jennyanydots: I've got nothing. If they knew each other, he'd appreciation her dedication, for sure. But some characters' paths just aren't meant to cross, I guess.
-
Keiiji: I'd like to think that they've met. Arnbjorn handles a lot of 'outsider' business, and is often there if an 'outsider' is meeting with his boss. But I don't think they would have had any conversations.
-
Admetus: Hey, Arnbjorn isn't above some casual sex. Not quite as casual as Admetus seems to enjoy, though. He likes to flirt for at least a few days. He's not interested in a relationship right now, so there wouldn't be much drama there. He might inadvertently insult Admetus, since he thinks Addy is acting kind of obviously desperate. But that depends on how thick Addy's skin is!
-
Fenrir: Definitely work buddies. Arnbjorn respects his determination, and I can see them existing in really comfortable silences, since Arnbjorn isn't very talkative. Honestly, I could see them being sort of the "we don't talk much but we have each other's back one hundred percent" acquaintances.
-
Purrgatori: I'm not sure, either! Definitely willing to throw them together. Again, Arnbjorn would know her, since he likes to touch base with all the Henches regularly. I'm not sure anything meaty would ever develop between them.
|Clinton|-
Gilbert: Oh gosh, yeah! I can see Clinton being very protective of Gilbert. And Clinton's a very laid-back guy, so I don't think anything Gilbert says could phase him too much. Though if he ever knew Gilbert's story, he'd spend a lot of time trying to think of Siobhan's motivations, which could easily rub Gilbert the wrong way. And he'd really want to push Gilbert into working with his powers and trying to fit them into his life, rather than blocking them.
-
Rumpleteazer: Rebound sex, probably. Teazer's hot, and Clinton appreciates that. Not sure what kind of relationship would form there. Clinton likes really deep, meaningful talks, and Teazer might not like that. Plus, he's not the type for one-night stands. He gets clingy. Not so much because he wants a romantic relationship out of it. It's more that he thinks that they've shared something beautiful and they are forever connected because of it. But their banter could be fun! Clinton is quite cheeky.
-
Jennyanydots: Oh, heartbreak. Clinton's already falling hard for Jenny, the poor, poor fool. He definitely won't understand why she thinks there's no future there. I'm excited for this.
-
Keiiji: Good point, I like that. I think Clinton would be very interested to hear Keiiji's story. Especially since he presents himself in such an interesting way. And the fact that he's so hard to read would drive Clinton to want to know more about him, definitely.
-
Admetus: I think Clinton likes him, from the little he's seen of him. Admetus is, well... cool, as far as Clinton's concerned. Besides, he's really fascinated by the Jellicle versus Hench dynamic, and wants to find a way to resolve it. I could see him trying to have conversations about it with Admetus, and Addy not caring enough to really participate.
-
Fenrir: I can't personally see why they'd interact, really, unless Clinton started doing some actual meddling in Jellicle versus Hench affairs. I don't think he'd like Fenrir, though, considering how judgmental Fen is.
-
Purrgatori: Clinton would probably, eventually, think that Tori is kind of cool. It definitely doesn't hurt that she's really attractive. He'd think that her very literal views on everything were funny.
|Tantomile|-
Gilbert: I don't think Tantomile would really DISLIKE Gilbert, she just... wouldn't see the need to get along with him? She'd be polite (in her own way, that is), but she wouldn't go out of her way to make him comfortable. They definitely are too similar. And she's too focused inward.
-
Rumpleteazer: Noted! I think Teazer could definitely draw some personality out of Tantomile, and she could probably give Teazer pretty good advice. She doesn't care much about right or wrong. And she would definitely see any of Teazer's affairs as a sort of game with rules that she has to figure out on her own. Yes, she'd be very interested in the details of any of Teazer's last 'thieveries'. That's what Tantomile considers to be fun.
-
Jennyanydots: Nope, Tantomile never really has reasons to visit Jenny. She's seen her a few times for minor illnesses, but she's learned to take care of herself well enough. Though she does like to know what everything in the infirmary is. She spent a lot of her kittenhood with the previous Healer, learning about the parts that interested her.
-
Keiiji: I can't wait to put them together, it could be very interesting.
-
Admetus: Tantomile is also quite uninterested in letting anyone in her bed! A virgin at twenty-eight, though the social stigma doesn't bother her. Who knows, maybe Addy would be her first. Not that she cares about the emotional aspects that would typically come with that.
-
Fenrir: I mean... the way I could see that working (finding out Fen is Alyssa's father) is if Tantomile had an episode and learned that something happens involving Alyssa and her father, who Tantomile does not know. She tells Alyssa, and when it happens and Fenrir is the one who is involved, Alyssa puts two and two together... Does that make sense? Blargh, I'm having trouble with the words right now!
-
Purrgatori: Hmm. My problem with Tantomile is that she's just so darn isolated! She doesn't interact with many cats! But yeah, I'd be willing to throw them together some day.
|Munkustrap|-
Gilbert: Oh boy. Here we go. Well, Gilbert's crush is going to go unrequited. Munkustrap is hopelessly straight, I'm afraid. I don't think learning about his crush would really affect much, though. Learning about his growing relationship with Demeter, however... Especially considering how intense things got between them, so quickly... Gilbert would get put pretty high on his watch list, for sure. A lot of it depends on what we do with Demeter and Gilbert, though. If he sees Gilbert as a positive force in Demeter's life, he would absolutely make an effort to get to know him and take care of him, and would probably come to care for him very much, not just for Demeter's sake. But if Munk thought for a second that Gilbert was having any sort of negative effect on Demeter (which is incredibly possible, regardless of the truth), well... I'm not sure how he'd act toward Gilbert directly. I don't think he'd realize that he was reacting negatively toward him at all. He'd definitely be trying to keep himself between Gilbert and Demeter. As far as Macavity drama, I think Munkustrap would struggle a lot with trying very hard to keep Gilbert safe (for Demeter's sake, as a friend, and as the Jellicle Protector) while also keeping an eye on Gilbert and Demeter's growing relationship. That'd be pretty tough on him. And I do worry that he'd inadvertently take it out on Gilbert. I see a lot of potential here with Munkustrap struggling with his personal feelings versus his duties as Protector.
-
Rumpleteazer: A very fun, cute thorn. Munkustrap likes to act sort of despaired when it comes to Teazer, but he really does think that she's a good presence for everyone else's sake. But there's a ton of potential for drama with her dealings with Macavity. And also with Demeter's dislike of Rumpleteazer. Again, a lot of conflict between his duties and his feelings.
-
Jennyanydots: I could see something developing! They're definitely close, both because of their positions within the Tribe and because of their respective friendships with Bomba and Deme. Munk thinks that Jenny is a very strong, very great asset, and has an endless amount of respect for her. And Jenny would absolutely have to drag him off the battlefield if he's hurt, because he'd keep fighting! I also love a good 'love triangle' situation, too, so I'd be up for some Bomba-Munk-Jenny drama. I also like the idea of Jenny being a sort of unofficial 'trusted advisor' to Munk. I've done that set-up with them before, and it's always very... sweet, kind of tender, to see Munk rely on her so much.
-
Keiiji: Munkustrap would totally appreciate Keiiji's help from time to time. I see a solid work relationship there, but Munk doesn't fully trust him. He can't trust anybody who keeps themselves so closed-off, not when he values openness and honesty so much.
-
Admetus: There is so much that I can see happening with this situation. I do want Munkustrap to be the one to tell, but I'm not sure when or why. I kind of want it to be an accident, so that it properly messes everything up and Munk has another thing to be guilty over, mwahaha. I think Munkustrap has always tried really hard for a brotherly relationship with Admetus. It's hard for him when he can't tell Admetus the truth, though. I'd love for Munkustrap to be sort of constantly dropping semi-obvious hints that Admetus should leave the Henches and join the Jellicles eventually. And he can't really imagine a world where that didn't happen.
-
Fenrir: Oooooh. I can't WAIT for Munkustrap to crack, I think things could get prettyyyyy dark when that happens. I mean if that happens. If.
I'd be fine with Fenrir being the one to do it, or even just heavily contributing to it.
-
Purrgatori: Ha, god, poor Tucker! Munk is already on alert as far as he's concerned because his sisters (who Munkustrap assumes are Henches) snuck into the Junkyard to look for him. Munkustrap would have to find a way to make it up to Tori, not sure how though.
|Growltiger|-
Gilbert: Veryyyy interesting... I'm not sure if Growltiger would ever get to a point like that (he does just fine letting emotions out with the dames or a pint of ale, usually), but I'll keep that in mind! Always good to have a punching bag.
-
Rumpleteazer: Well, first of all, he would want to sleep with her. And he's really obvious when he wants to sleep with somebody. As in “You're gonna be sore when I'm done with you” levels of obvious. He sees her as a Hench who's just a bit confused at the moment. She needs a good f**king to set her on the right path.
-
Jennyanydots: Nah, he wouldn't really want anything to do with her. Unless he could f**k her into a Hench, because she is quite hot. He likes the fiery ones.
-
Keiiji: Yep, who knows!
-
Admetus: Bloody weird that he goes after toms and dames both, if you ask Growltiger. But he thinks Addy is funny, and laughs like crazy when he hits on him. He'd punch him right in the face if Addy ever took it too far, though. Growltiger just doesn't take him very seriously.
-
Fenrir: That one's gonna be fun. Woo!
-
Purrgatori: I mean, aside from standard predatory behavior toward her, I'm not sure they interact often. He doesn't spend too much time at the Warehouse, and he couldn't be bothered to remember her name. He'll make passing comments at all the dames to remind them that he's always got his sight set on them, but nothing much more than that.
