  Swishing her tail back and forth, Bombalurina strutted into the Junkyard’s clearing. There were obvious signs when the red queen had returned from a late night meet up with another cat. Messier fur than the proud queen would usually allow? Check. An air of confidence even higher than she usually carried? Check. And last of all, her expression permanently turned into a smirk for a few hours after? Check. All in all, it was obvious that Bombalurina had just returned from a session of late night getting some as she lay herself down on the tire. She began grooming her fur into a more acceptable state as her eyes glided over the rest of the junkyard, surveying the other members who were still out, looking for someone to entertain her.

Alonzo completely ignored Bombalurina, he knew he shouldn’t have been there. But dammit he wanted to feel better and that is exactly what he intended to do. You could never say that he and Bomba were friends, far too similar for that, so he had no trouble making her mad to get his way.
He sighed internally when it seemed that Bombalurina simply wasn’t going to sit and be ignored. Can’t she just admit defeat? He straightened up and just looked at her, hand on hip. “Oh it’d do you no good learning fur care from her, you don’t want to wind up looking like a pollicles chew toy.” He was talking to the kittens but looking and Bomba, just so he could see her reaction.
He wouldn’t have usually try to rile her up like this but today he wasn’t interested in being civil. Munkustrap had said (shouted) that he was childish and who was he to prove him wrong?

As the kittens whispered “Ooooo” noises, sensing a fight, Bombalurina flicked her tail, cocking her head challengingly to act as if she wasn’t offended. It had been a long time since Alonzo had stooped so low to insult her looks with barely any prompting. She forced a smile, her eyes shooting daggers, and stood up slowly, the kittens glancing between her and Alonzo.

Walking up to him, she stood right in front of him, barely an arm’s length away. She put her paw on his shoulder, seemingly nicely, but dug her claws into it just a bit. “Alonzo, darling, can we have a talk? Away from the kittens? Jellylorum can keep an eye on them I’m sure.” Without even waiting for Alonzo’s response, or Jellylorum’s confrontation, she dragged him across the Junkyard.

As soon as she believed they were out of earshot of the group, her facial expression turned dark, a look of fury in her eyes. “What was that all about?” she spat, letting go of his shoulder. “Have you forgotten our agreement? Or did you just think it would be funny to insult me in front of all of them?”

To say things weren’t going well for Alonzo would be an understatement, well, if you asked him anyway. He walked right into the main clearing, head held high as if he hadn’t just been arguing with Munkustrap for the third time this week about his so called ‘lack of responsibility’ and 'childish attitude’ and other things he’d rather not remember. He wasn’t made for leadership, hell he was made for having fun.
Usually at this time he’d be off with Cassandra gossiping or grooming each others fur but she’d gone home for the weekend for a bit of pampering. So instead his number one method for feeling better was basking in the attention of dim witted kittens. He loved them to bits, so long as they loved him back. Bombalurina was there as he’d expected, entertaining his kittens. He joined the group without hesitation, she’d just have to find something else to do.
Alonzo stroked the side of Etcetera’s face with the back of his paw. “Good evening my queen.” He purred. What had been laughter at Bombalurina’s story turned into little giggles as she turned to face Electra and share her excitement with her. Alonzo smirked and looked up at Bombalurina who had been avoiding his gaze. /Can’t even handle a bit of competition./
The toms were not as interested in him as they were Bomba but they did like to take mental notes on what he did in case they could use his tricks when they could older. The queens however were all dying for his attention, usually he was more aloof and it was difficult but today he was handing out attention for free.
Alonzo took hold of Jemima’s paw, now he was happily in the middle of the circle. “Tell me, how do you get your fur to shine line that? What’s your secret?” As he spoke he didn’t break eye contact, enjoying how flustered it made the young kit.
“W-well it’s nothing like yours Lonz! It’s so nice and soft!” She said quickly, falling over her words. Alonzo grinned, he was feeling better already.

Watching the queens excitedly turn their attention to Alonzo, and the toms slowly being won over by him and watching him carfeully, Bombalurina frowned. Her tail began to flick back and forth in annoyance, and she had half a mind to give Alonzo a good claw on his nose to teach him a lesson.

After all, Alonzo and her had this problem in the past. Bombalurina had thought, before now, that this was in the past. They’d decided that if one of them had attention, not to steal the spotlight- because they’d have it later.

But apparently someone couldn’t keep their end of a deal.

Bombalurina forced a smile and laughed a fake-playful giggle, her tail calming down as she acted as if she wasn’t annoyed.

“Oh, Alonzo! I didn’t notice you there.” When she could tell no one was looking at her, only him, she made a much ruder expression, almost threatening, saying clearly ‘What are you doing here?’ 

Bombalurina took the opportunity to turn attention back to her, taking Jemima’s opening. “Well, Alonzo’s fur may be quite soft, but I think yours is lovely, Jemima. Nice, beautiful and red, don’t you think?” She smiled as Jemima turned back to her, thanking her.

“In fact,” the queen continued, “I have some fur secrets that I could share with you all. I know Etcetera and Pouncival both wanted to know that a while ago, didn’t you?” With the mention of their names, they were nodding along, looking back at her again as she dished out attention. “Well, I can spill my secrets, but I wouldn’t want Alonzo stealing them, now would I?” She looked at him smugly as the kittens seemed to agree for no reason. “Babe, you mind scampering along?”

@areblackandwhite Most cats needed only three things, arguably, to survive: Food, water, and air. 

Bombalurina, inarguebly, needed four; the previously mentioned trio, and the most important of all: Attention.

She felt at home in the spotlight, with every other Jellicle’s eyes on her. She could feel the small group of cats surrounding her’s eyes glued to her. Tumblebrutus and Pouncival were hooked on every word, and Etcetera let out loud laughs at anything remotely funny. Electra’s eyes never moved from her, and Jemima was entraced. Hell, even Jellylorum had a chuckle. 

Not only that, but she could feel the older cats, and some of the more, shall we say, excitable kittens eyes wandering up and down her body. She sat in a tried-and-true practiced posed that she knew showed all the parts of her body that she loved. 

Bombalurina Stage Center Zero. That’s her full name. Until, that is, Alonzo strutted in, and she felt the kittens attention wear as the tom joined the circle.

She narrowed her eyes. He better not take this from her, when he knew that he could perfectly well have their attention when she was out hunting with Demeter later tonight. Bombalurina purposely turned her eyes from him, acting as if she hadn’t noticed his arrival

“So anyways, then I said, ‘Oh, really, Cassandra?’ And she looked absolutely mortified.” Cue Etcetera’s laughter, exactly as planned.

2 for the price of one, I like this idea

Still vain? Too bad, I was hoping you’d taken this time to improve yourself xo

I’ll have you know I am a much better person now, although Im still as vain as I was before. Why should I change that?

Hah. You’re right, loving yourself isn’t a flaw. 

...Loving Alonzo, however? That is.
