Mungojerrie reddened slightly. "Nuffin' in here them 'umans couldn't live without..." he mumbled. All at once, he didn't know if it was such a good idea to open the bag and display the treasures to these three. He could predict their actions almost perfectly: Demeter would scold, though she probably wouldn't be able to refrain from smiling; Quaxo would feign interest, though clearly still disapproving of Jerrie's actions; and Cassandra would simply look down on him. None of them were reactions the tiger tom was very keen on seeing. Why did so many cats have to be so ridiculously fond of humans? What had humans ever done worth talking about?
Shrugging his shoulders, Mungo turned back to the three other cats. He supposed he ought to let them see into the bag, since he had already offered. Maybe they would be nice about it if he shared some of the food... "So...any'un up fer lookin' inside?" he asked, looking around at them.

Quaxo bashfully fidgetted with his ear at Cassandra's gratefulness. "Ah thank you, but I am the one who should be expressing my gratitude to you. I would not have been able to even attempt returning Old Deuteronomy without the trust I received from you and...Rum Tum Tugger.." he trailed off. Even though Tugger and him were good friends, allot of the time it was hard to admit it because about half the time, the Mane Coone's actions irritated him so much. He did find his flirting and flourishing for the Queens terribly boring. He turned his attention to Mungojerrie and his bag as he offered it up to them. "I must admit I am quite curious now as to what you did find. May I see?"

Demeter chewed at the inside of her cheek, but she couldn't stop the smile from twitching at her lips. After all, she'd had her fair share of 'badass' days when she was younger and lived without a care in the world. She stepped closer to Jerrie to get a better view.
"I'd love to see as well." Her eyes darted around the dark Junkyard, and her lips twitched again at the secretive nature of the whole ordeal.

gave a graceful nod, "yes please do." she said then she reached out a soft velvety paw to touch his and added quietly, her pale green eyes catching the moonlight again, "and....Jerrie I am only concerned because while my Humans are kind many are not. and if we anger them too much it could mean traps, poison bait and who knows what sort of unpleasantness. but enough of my being gloomy, please show us!"

Mungojerrie gave the others a timid smile, feeling rather badly for assuming they would have negative reactions. He especially felt guilty for assuming that Cassandra would have some snooty reason for disapproving of his thievery. Of course he should be careful not to anger the humans, but he didn't exactly make a habit of stealing from the same family too often. He did have a system...
"No worries," he said, trying to reassure them. "Oi'm careful. Never want any o' me pals gettin' hurt er caught on my account!" With no further ado, he opened the sack and began pulling things out. "See, there's a beauty," he grinned, holding out a broach in the shape of an owl. "They threw it out 'cause it lost its pin," he hastened to say. "But still shiny, ain't it?" Putting that aside, he dug into the sack again. "Here's somefin' every'un might like," he said gleefully, pulling out a large piece of meat. "Any'un hungry?"

Quaxo stepped closer to see what Munjojerrie's haul. He wasn't to particularly interested in the broach for himself but he did think of a certain white queen that it might enjoy it. He smiled to himself as he eyed the broach, thoughts on how on how he could fix it but was immediately distracted when the thief pulled out the chunk of meat, mutton. He subconsciously licked his lips as he eyes his favorite food. "That does look quite delicious."

Demeter's eyes glittered in interest and she almost smiled before remembering herself. "You know, you really shouldn't be doing this, Jerrie," she said reproachfully. Though her gaze kept wandering between the broach and the sack. She couldn't help wondering what the most expensive thing he'd ever stolen was, the riskiest outing. She glanced up again to check the Yard.

The lovely brown siamese mix smile from where she had blended with the shadows and junk, "good evening Victoria, please join us." Cassandra said. then she turned her attention back to Mungojerrie. "some of that would be lovely, thank you." she said dipping her head demurely.

Mungojerrie was pleased, and even a bit surprised, by their responses. He'd half thought they might refuse the meat since it was 'stolen.'
Immediately he began tearing off bits and passing them around. "Well, truthfully," he said to Demeter as he handed her a piece of meat, "this 'ad been sittin' in my humans' house fer a good while. They'd forgot about it, an' it wos gonna go bad if some'un didn't eat it."
His ears flicked backwards, listening to what sounded like another cat joining them. This time of night was more active than he'd thought!

Victoria crawled onto the plain, surrounded by old wrappings and junk. She had spotted some flashes of white light her earlier, and was curious to see what was happening. Maybe it's Rumpelteazer play a prank or something. The white queen leaped onto a chunk of wood, and climbed higher to see what currently resided in the middle. "Hello? Anyone there?" She paused. "Rumpel, if it's you again, I swear I'll tell Munkustrap!" Victoria said sternly. She squinted and could make out some chatter. She spotted four cats. A gold and yellow queen, an orange and black striped tom, a sleek brown feline, and a black-and-white tuxedo cat she knew all to well. Victoria grinned. "Hi!" She called.

Honestly Quaxo might have refused if hadn't been mutton but it had been such a long while and after his uncle had talked about it last night, he had a craving for it. "Although that does not nesscarily condone stealing it, it is reassuring that this mutton will not be missed." He accepted a piece and smiled in delight as he took a bite of it. Although that only lasted a moment when he immediately recognized a new voice. He nearly choked on his mutton in surprise, not expecting her to be awake and blushed shyly at the fact a moment before he was thinking of her. "V..Victoria!" He exclaimed startled as he looked up her.

Demeter accepted the mutton with a smile, toying at it with her claws but not eating it. Electra would probably like it more than her. Besides, she found that she had not had much of an appetite since the Ball the night before. "Well, I didn't realize you were such a philanthropist," she teased.
Her ears pricked at the sound of a voice in the distance, and tensed until Victoria showed herself. "Hello, dear." Her eyes landed on Quaxo, not at all surprised by the blush on the tuxedo tom's white face. It didn't take a genius to tell that the poor tom was enraptured by the snow-white queen.

The lovely brown queen delicately sectioned her piece and looked up with a polite tilt to her rounded ears, "Hello Victoria please join us!" she said in a welcoming velvety voice. then she gave Mungojerrie a soft smile, "Demeter he is just showing that he could be a good provider." the she turned her attention to her mutton. behind her serene mask Cassandra was grinning inside her tail swishing rhythmically, Quaxo and Victoria were so charming together.

Mungojerrie blushed to the eartips at Cassandra's words. Thankfully at that moment Victoria came along, and the attention was directed away from him. He glanced keenly at Quaxo, wondering why the tuxedo tom seemed so...startled? Embarrassed? Mungo shrugged. "Evenin', Miss Vickie," he greeted pleasantly. "Care fer some mutton?"
