Canon: Jesus Christ Superstar Arena Tour

[forallyoucare]

I keep thinking that, perhaps, one day I'd like to own a cat.  Something small and little that can mostly look after itself.

The road can get lonely.

And we actually have a lot of PBR boxes laying around.  According to Youtube, cats love to push themselves into boxes.

[Jesus laughs, but there's absolutely nothing malicious about it even as the kitten wriggles it's rear for another pounce. He's quick to pick Miryam up and kiss her head between her ears.]

[idreadbetrayingyou]

...Little brat. [Judas grumbles at the kitten but there's no bite behind it, rubbing his scalp where the dread pulled.] That's her name with me, now. Little Brat.

[forallyoucare]

Her name is Miryam. Mary said that it would get confusing if I called her Mary. She's probably right.

[Don't be jealous!]

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Not jealous. Not jealous. Not jealous.]

...Probably. [With anyone else, he might have made a bad joke about petting pussy and Mary, but Jesus it would go over his head until someone explained, then he'd be upset.

Just going to tug out a pack from his pocket and free up a cigarette. Easier than talking when he's still a little angry.]

[forallyoucare]

[If Jesus could understand, or divine the reason for Judas' sudden annoyance, he might have explained that the Mary that the kitten was named for happened to be his mother. Honestly. Far too many Marys these days.]

I wonder what she would call you if she could give you a nickname.

[He lifts the kitten so she's eye level.]

Maybe something about how your eyes match.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Those matching blue eyes narrow a little before he pulls out his lighter, flicking it a few times before the flame springs up, lighting up with a slow inhale and letting out a breath after the cig catches.]

...Suddenly I'm glad it's not male. Or ginger.

[Because he doesn't want a cat named after him.]

[forallyoucare]

I couldn't name her after you either. It would get confusing too.

[Jesus mimics the little kitten's yawn as he sets her down to rest in his lap. ]

And she's too affectionate besides.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Frown.]

Just because I don't paw all over people doesn't mean I can't be affectionate, if I want to.

[You of all people should know, JC.]

[forallyoucare]

[Bro-hugs and rolling into him when it's too hot to sleep inside the sleeping bag doesn't count! The little elbow touches don't either. Not when Jesus' standard is roaming around holding hands with his followers. Peter gets that treatment quite a lot.]

Perhaps one day you'll find someone to be affection with.

[But that's just a bit sad there, in his voice and eyes. He knows something you don't. ]

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Jesus' level of affection is so rare that Judas still doesn't always know what to do with it and sure as hell wouldn't let anyone else get away with it. Just Jesus. Maybe Jesus just doesn't realize that no one else gets even that affection from Judas.]

...Anyone who matters is blind. [Getting philosophical, or more just commenting on the man in front of him.]

[forallyoucare]

That's a bit of a downer.

[but he smiles just the same at Judas and leans into him, head inclined towards him.]

Your secrets are safe with me though.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Judas glances around, but other than Miryam, no one is around. His eyes close, leaving them just pools of darkness, and he leans into Jesus as well, their heads together.]

Not a downer, just reality. Reality is a dark, terrible place.

[forallyoucare]

It isn't. [He plans to be stubborn on this. Miryam is stubborn as well and flicks Judas with her tail.] Not when you realize that darkness is just another form of light, not it's opposite. You'll understand one day.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

Darkness is the absence of light.

[And there's Jesus being all... metaphorical again. Sometimes he can follow it, other times, like now, not at all. It was just frustrating... like now. But it doesn't matter. He deals with it, eyes staying close and just enjoying being close for a moment.]

[forallyoucare]

Stop thinking so small.

[He's trying to teach by letting Judas learn for himself.]

Even if you feel your mind is in darkness, even should you feel sick or used...you need only remember that I'm with you and love you. The light of love can break even through the dark.

[Jesus loved everyone. That was probably the whole problem.]

Ouch man, ouch.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Judas let out a breath, his eyes cracking open and looking to Jesus.]

If I was in darkness like that, it means that you're gone. It's the only way. Otherwise, you've been my light since you found me.

[Something he would only ever say with just Jesus to hear.]

Just using lyrics wherever I can. XD Like a lazy pro. :p

[forallyoucare]

I'll never be gone. That's what you have to remember.

[The betrayal might be set in stone but what happens after isn't.]

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Judas, if he knew anything about the betrayal, would have killed himself a whole lot sooner to prevent it. Or left. Or... or anything to know how badly he would fail his friend. The man he loved more than himself.]

Memory isn't the same as having you here. Maybe it isn't the same for you, but... fuck.

[Sometimes, like right about now, he wanted to grab Jesus, kiss him, and physically find a way to get into that brain of his.]

[forallyoucare]

[Kissing him isn't going to get into his head, Judas!]

Have a little faith. I know it's hard for you but... Even if you can't see me, I will be right with you. Always.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[No but it's a start. :|]

Why are you talking like this? [Eyes narrow.] You're not going anywhere, JC. You wouldn't do that to us.

[forallyoucare]

[Jesus blinks up at Judas before a smile settles over his face and he shakes his head.]

I'm not going anywhere.

[Yet.]

Except maybe to bed. Goodnight, Judas. Come on, Miryam.

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[And then Judas, who had been relaxing, tenses up all over again. JC really is going to do it. Fucker. Sometimes Jesus could be a complete arsehole. He knows that this is going to leave Judas jealous yet he goes off to do it.

Judas just grunts and grabs his stuff, going into his newly purchased tent completely pissed off as his mind imagined just what Mary would want to do with Jesus in her tent for the night.]

[forallyoucare]

[Don't be too jealous, Judas. Mary's just going to turn

<small>[Don't be too jealous, Judas. Mary's just going to turn <a href="http://dear-mun.dreamwidth.org/11612751.html?thread=343643471#cmt343643471" JC into a whole goopey pile of pleasure</a> with a little bit of head massaging tonight! Nothing too corrupt!

[idreadbetrayingyou]

[Bullshit. Judas is going to have a hell of a time sleeping tonight.

What doesn't help? Is waking up with a fucking cat in his hair. He turns over in the morning to find Miyram in his hair, who spills over as he sits up, staring down at her.

The fuck!?]

[forallyoucare]

Mew?

[Well, someone hadn't zippered the tent so well, okay? The cat was just as confused. She'd been trying to find the man and lady she'd slept with after her mission around the camp but had gone instead to say hello once more to the man who shared her eyes and her master's affection. So, boop! Paw to nose. A catty greeting, just for you!]
