Thread: â - - - the line between a rat and a cat l MINA & KING !

Of all the people who Fate could put together, she decided that it'd be humorous for Kyo and Yuki to be stuck with each other. As if it was some inevitable destiny, Tohru left to stay over at her friend's house, and Shigure, claiming he had 'business' to take care of for an entire week, cursed him to dwell with the god-forsaken cat. His insides tingled with creepy crawlies as he imagined being under the same roof with Kyo, but he concluded that it would be best for him to ignore the truth he couldn't deny and divide the place in half so that they wouldn't have to come in contact with each other. He would hate having to cook for someone who wouldn't even lift a finger for his own food, and he assumed that he would have to eventually take care of the chores without the cat's help. Well, he wasn't going to let himself suffer so miserably while observing that lazy cat lying around and doing nothing. He had Tohru to boss around when she was here, but now that she wasn't, who would he be able to rely on ? Yuki had his own ways of torturing idiotic people like Kyo. He was just every trait the rat-boy despised in a human being rolled into one annoying cat-morph. As Shigure left in the early evening, Yuki was busy cleaning up his side of the house. With a neat apron wrapped around his waist and a broomstick in hand, he paced the tatami floors, making sure to make his end incomparably cleaner than Kyo's. Then, when his uncle would return, he'd see how much of a failure Kyo was in comparison to him. There was a distinguishable white line trailing down the middle of the entire household, and this marked their separate territory claims for the entire upcoming week. Yuki claimed Shigure's room to sleep at in exchange for the sink, while Kyo possessed the ever-so-useful laundry room and spacious study enclosure. But Yuki had his own resources to make up for his losses. He could wash his clothes by hand and cope with reading a few books in Shigure's room, however much he despised anything that mentioned pornography or obscene subjects ... He was dead-serious about this, of course. If the cat underestimated his decision and would later decide to cross over that line, he would make sure to kick his ass so hard that he'd need surgery to remove his implanted foot. Yuki leaned against the door frame that connected to Kyo's side of the place, arching his eyebrows in mild amusement. How could he be lounging around like that when there were so many tasks to be taken care of ? Ah, he forgot. Kyo was nothing more than a useless cat. I applaud your laziness, Kyo. You should be hungry ... after all, you've been in that position for over an hour now, he teased, patting his full stomach in happiness. Such were the rewards of being able to cook for oneself, really. Even though he wasn't a great cook, there were such convenient inventions like instant curry to make up for his poor skills as a chef. With his daily chores done, he propped the broom in the corner of the room and headed into the kitchen to prepare a cup of tea for himself. After heating up a bit of water and adding a tea bag into the decanter that held it, he brought both the pouring jar and the jade green mug into the living room to enjoy the rest of his evening in complete silence. But he could settle for hearing Kyo's stomach growls, too.listu
