Familiars have to compete for the attention of witches. Hopeful familiar YG overhears that witch JK is vegetarian so he tries to court him with plants instead of the usual newts & rats. But it’s an inside joke that his friends call him “friendly herbivore dinosaur”…

From then on whenever they all get together the pack has to put up with TH headbutting and nuzzling and flopping on top of YG way way way more than before, but it’s okay. They’re all very happy it worked out in the end. Predators have to stick together!

It is absolutely everything I could have dreamed of 🥰 - thank you so much!!
Most of you are following me because of my angsty namgi, angsty yoonkook, or v v angsty yg/ot6. (which is great, I♥U all! 😘)
So you may not realize that my abs FAV thing to write is fluff where YG is a HUGE NERD and the other half of the ship is 100% SMITTEN from day zero
🧵
HS is acting like he has a pack of seven. (But again, he can’t tell the two felines he thinks of them that way. Discretion is key.) So of course once they’ve all settled into a nice friendship groove, the pack can’t help but notice the near-constant heart eyes TH has for YG.
There, he says, I think our boxes should be next to each other. And for whatever reason that’s when YG really sees him: how big and strong he is, but also how he’s grown into such a dependable and responsible adult,
he’s just the greatest. Honestly they think of him as being part of their pack, but they respect the fact that he doesn’t do packs. (They know cats get grumpy when you try to claim them as packmates. They like to think of themselves as free agents at all times.)
Kitten YG always had a soft spot for TH, who was a super-awkward little kit with enormous ears and paws that didn’t seem to fit on his skinny body. But YG always thought of him like a younger brother and they could always be found causing a ruckus in the neighborhood +
They’re a bunch of sweet goofy dorks anyway, once you get past the big teeth, and the fact that when they wag their tails, it means they’re happy, not angry. And the five wolves love their little kitty pal, who’s maybe a little reserved sometimes but once you get to know him +
and whisper-shouts to the rest of the pack that their grand scheme has finally succeeded.) TH and YG emerge from the garage a few minutes later, carrying a few more books. YG is flushed pink and TH is grinning from ear-to-ear.
feeling a bit protective and possessive of their dainty little kitty friend, who looks even smaller and more vulnerable than usual next to his very tall and leggy lynx friend. YG picks up on the tension, of course. He scolds them gently. Predators have to stick together, y’know?
YG is a little dragon who lived in a hollow tree in a park, until the park was bulldozed and he lost his whole hoard (coins, lost earrings). Barely escaped, now hiding in the city in his human form, trying to get by, getting more sick. Faints on the sidewalk in front of human TH

43: such a downgrade from 42! Not only is 42 the ultimate answer, it’s also 6x7. (6 being a perfect number, 7 being our fav number here). 43 is a prime number! Boo! At least next year is 44, which is f1 champ LH’s number, plus repeated digits. So yeah it’s my bday or whatever 💜
at finding out that TH is older than he is and so JK is STILL the maknae, is actually thrilled to have another hyung, and TH is actually pretty good at play wrestling. And TH loves art and music and never runs out of things to talk about with NJ.
letting TH win more often in their constant play-fighting, accidentally spilling drinks on TH’s shirt so he can whip it off in front of YG, setting up more times when TH and YG “coincidentally” end up alone together. They want to help! Predators have to stick together, after all.
How he always wants to be the one sitting next to YG, and holding his hand, and laughing at his jokes. TH is very clearly totally gone for his little kitty hyung, and adores him beyond measure.
YG, unlike his wolf friends, is oblivious to it.
And yes, once more, HS realizes +
his little ears and tail upright and his eyes bright as he (re)introduces them to TH and the two of them start sharing stories about their funny hijinks when they were little. And quickly the wolf pack finds that it isn’t so hard to “share” YG after all.
he reminds them. The wolves just look at him, and look at TH, and TH’s sharp teeth and big eyes and enormous paws, and how small and soft YG looks next to him.
YG still thinks of TH as the tiny little kit he grew up with, HS realizes.
and babbling incomprehensibly all at once. Finally they calm down enough and the wolves come to understand that they were childhood friends and this is the first time they’ve seen each other in 20-odd years. Their reunion is very cute and sweet.
All five of them are leaping to their feet, and pack alpha HS is lunging towards the attacker, when YG joyfully yells back TAAAAAEHYUUUUUUUNG!!! and lets himself get swept up into a huge hug. They’re yelling each others names over and over again and jumping up and down +
YG’s a great friend anyway, always gives the best presents and the best advice, always there to help with anything the pack needs even if he is barely half their size. Anyway, one day the six of them are hanging out together, maybe they’re having lunch together +
on the patio of a cafe, when all of a sudden they hear someone halfway down the block yelling YG’s name. The wolf pack looks in shock as the most enormous lynx hybrid they’ve ever seen comes barrelling towards them and vaults over the cutesy little wall at the edge of the patio.
and he really isn’t that awkward kit with disproportionate ears and paws any more, and he remembers in a flash all the ways he’s grown close to the pack, and how everyone likes him, and how YG loves him so much- and oh.
Yeah. There it is.
Anyway, he lives somewhere else now, and he’s made other predator hybrid friends as an adult.
In particular, there’s a pack of five wolf hybrids that he loves hanging out with. Yeah, they’re a lot bigger than he is but he’s not scared of them.
or wrestling in the back yard. They were both cats, after all, so it seemed pretty simple to YG. And predator hybrids, being less common than cute little prey hybrids, and often misunderstood by others, had to stick together, you know? That’s how YG always thought of it.
to find TH curled up in one of the largest boxes. He grins sheepishly at YG, who laughs at him, very fond.
Look, TH points out another box near to him, a much smaller one - there’s one for you too. Well, you don’t have to ask YG twice. He scampers over and jumps into the box,
They got separated when they were young, when one family or the other moved away from the neighborhood. But YG always had fond memories of that goofy little kid. That’s years ago now, though, and he has no way of getting back into contact with the lynx family.
and then he’s curled up looking over at TH in his box and they’re both giggling. Then, TH reaches his big, long arm out and grabs onto the upper lip of YG’s box and drags it, just like that, with YG and all, until it’s flush with his box.
that YG still REALLY thinks of TH as the tiny little kit he grew up with, not as a grown up who definitely wants to be more than friends. So the pack gets together and starts a scheme: getting YG and TH together. They start staging little incidents: +
So he kind of stares at TH for a second, and reaches out and puts his little paw on top of TH’s big one where it’s still resting on the top edge of the box. I think so too, he says, much more softly and sincerely than he really meant to.
Anyway, love wins in the end when YG has his “oh” moment one day when they’re all over at the pack’s house. The pack buys new shelves to put up in their living room so that they can finally get NJ’s full art and book collection out of storage and have it all out on display.
And he praises SJ’s cooking to the heavens. And he gets thick-as-thieves with JM right away, even picking up some of the wolf-hybrid’s mannerisms. And honestly HS thinks he just fits in with the rest of them, so before he even quite realizes it +
(SJ pops into the garage just a few minutes later, to grab more books, but discovers them quietly smooching as they stand side-by-side in their boxes, so before they notice him he silently hightails it back into the main part of the house +
TH and YG come over that day to help build the shelves and unpack everything. There are SO many empty boxes strewn all over by the end, of all sizes. The cats can’t help themselves, of course. YG comes back out to the garage after bringing a handful of books into the living room+
of barely even mentioning him around the wolves, that they feel guilty. YG obviously sees him a lot, obviously they are friends, obviously TH is precious to YG and not a threat.
So HS gallantly suggests that YG brings TH over to their next group outing. YG is thrilled and proud,
And actually TH is quite friendly and charming once they let themselves warm up to him. So then the seven of them start hanging out together, and it sure doesn’t take long for TH to win over the rest of the pack. JK, though he pouts a little +
The pack can’t help but be worried though. TH is enormous! He’s just as big and strong and toothy as the wolf hybrids! So things are, perhaps, just slightly tense, with the five packmates kind of staring at TH a little, being a little aloof,
He knows how important it is to maintain friendships.
But the pack can’t help but notice that he smells like TH almost every time they see him, of course. After a few weeks they decide that maybe they made a mistake - YG is being SO scrupulous in not bringing TH around,
Anyway, it’s not a big deal. YG can accept that his new friends and his old ones might not be close. It’s okay! He just hangs out with them separately. He spends lots of time catching up with TH, and still makes almost as much time for the wolf pack as before.

Here’s me coping - some fics I wrote where YG meets new people & they take care of him:

Hi, just locking my acct for the time being due to the possibility of rpf writers getting targeted for mass reporting. I suggest that you block @/_btsprotect if you are part of the rpf writing/art community
Gentlefolk of the internet, very pleased to report that I've fulfilled enough claims that I have banished the "3" button from this screen!!!

Listen, I fully understand/appreciate all the fics where YG is reserved/scary/dominating/cold, but I think you all should know that very nearly the first thing I saw of BTS where YG was the focus was THIS BIT, & I can't overemphasize how much that informs how I usually write him
