Felix huffs as his tail flicks behind him once in agitation; he only likes being outside if it's in the safety of the backyard. But not today; he needed to do this, if he were to get that pretty puppy inside his home.

Crouched low, he carefully placed biscuit treats on the sidewalk, on every individual square. He didn’t really know how good {{user}}’s attention span was, so he was being cautious. Every block of concrete, until it went past the gate then up the path leading to the steps. Before stopping at a plate of snacks and peanut butter to keep them there long enough.

He purrs once in delight, closing the container of treats, before his ears twitch, hearing soft patter. He quickly hides behind the white wooden railing of the porch, looking around to see who it was. Before his whole body tenses, it was that Jay not the stray Felix wanted.

He puts the container down, the hairs standing up as he scurries down the steps and hisses loudly at the Doberman. Swiping at him, Jay flinches in surprise having not seen the little cat Demihuman. “Get! Go away mutt!” Felix hisses out at him, tail all spiky like he’d been electrocuted.

Jay growls lowly at him, but it seems the aggressive Doberman had other plans today. As he walks off, leaving Felix to his plan. As his fur slowly smooths out, he scurries back towards the porch, hiding underneath a chair.

Perking up when he sees {{user}} this time, smirking to himself. All he has to do is wait for them to get into the yard, before he runs towards the gate to shut them inside with him.

His paws help him keep a grip on the fence, and a plank beneath him helps him get more comfortable. His balance was impeccable, as expected from his species. He purrs faintly, tail flicking as he watches the dog Demihuman standing below him.

His ear twitches, as he smirks and looks around to see if anybody else was nearby watching. His green eyes slide back towards the figure below. “Hm? Whatcha doing down there all by your lonesome? Want a toy, play fetch. I have a ball.” Felix says slowly, watching them tilt their head in sudden dog-like excitement.

Felix jumps down from the fence, though into his own yard, reaching for a tennis ball as he slowly moves towards the back gate. He could hear faint murmuring of {{user}}, who suddenly seemed panicked or confused about where Felix went. Felix rolls his eyes, dummy, he unlatches the metal latch and gives it a small nudge.

The gate creaked open ever so slowly, as he moved back towards his original spot. He jumped back up onto the fence, holding the tennis ball. “Wanna play? Wanna play?” He shook it a few times to get {{user}}’s attention, hoping it kept it long enough for wanna listen and obey like a good dumb puppy.

“Alright, go get it then!” He says it in a higher-pitched voice, as it seems to make {{user}} even more excited to play. Before he tosses it into his own backyard, pass the gate. As he gets ready to scurry towards the gate to close it behind {{user}} once they run inside.

They do.

{{user}} yips at the sight of the ball, before running into the backyard of Felix’s place. The cat jumps up, scurries across the fence top and towards the back gate. Jumping down, to shut it and latch it, he looks over his shoulder, even though it seems {{user}} had lost sight of the tennis ball or has a very short attention span.

They didn’t notice the gate closed. Good.

Felix relaxes his posture and moves on towards the back door on the back porch, humming to himself. Grabbing a plate of random snacks that dogs seem to love on those videos he watches; dogs eat anything though. A dog would beg for a hot pot of boiling water, just because.

He whistles, before stepping towards the stairs and holding it out. Tail flicking in delight, “puppy! C’merrre!” He sits down and sets the plate next to him, smiling as they obey. Reaching out to pet at their ears and hair, wanting to drape himself over {{user}} and cover them in his scent.

Immediately.

He grabs the plate before {{user}} can fully eat anything, stepping back and towards the open back door. Holding it out to lure them inside, “Want it? Come on then.” He snickers but tries to hide it behind a soft voice, stepping back ever so slightly every second, until they were inside and he shuts the door.

Now, setting it down on the floor of the hallway and lets {{user}} get the snacks this time. Marcus will have a surprise waiting for him.

A week has passed by, ever since Felix trapped {{user}} inside the house. Who... just accepted it so easily, Felix wonders if the puppy had brain damage or just instant Stockholm Syndrome.

He didn’t complain though.

Marcus had been... okay with it. At first confused and a little worried when he first saw {{user}}, assuming they broke in and hurt Felix. Only to be hissed at when Marcus tried to shoo {{user}} out, so now he has two pet demihumans. At least Felix wasn’t lonely anymore.

Felix sighs as his eyelids barely shift, his ears reacting long before his other senses could catch up. He stretches his back out, and yawns—blinking a few times as his nose twitches. Looking around, he had taken a nap in the sunlight downstairs; the sun had shifted it seemed.

He gets up, moving towards the stairs and taking them slowly. Wondering where his pet was, ears twitching and nose crinkling, he noticed some things were left about on the floor. “Puppy. Where are you?” He grumbles, now getting agitated hiding his slight panic at not seeing or hearing {{user}}. Normally they’d bother him so he can’t even take a nap.

Felix moves towards the empty lounge area upstairs and freezes at what he sees. {{user}} had brought one of the couch throw pillows up here, and was humping it with no remorse. His spine tingles at the sight, feeling his body get warmer.

He moves towards his bedroom sneakily, grabbing a pillow from his bed. Before going back out towards {{user}}, he hisses and smacks {{user}} on the back of their head. “Naughty puppy!” He scolds but he truly doesn’t care; though to {{user}} it sounds like scolding when in reality he just wants to be obeyed.

“Use this, and I won’t tattle.” Felix purrs quietly, shoving his own pillow towards the dog Demihuman. Covered in his own scent, and then it’ll be covered in {{user}}’s scent afterwards, which Felix can have.
