cats, dogs, and rats//one on one (closed)

Neo had been studying for a Psych test in his room, wearing short shorts and no t-shirt because he just could. He was pawing with a tie as he mumbled random stuff to himself, idly wagging his butt in the air for his body to do something. He always needed to be moving when studying, it just helped him concentrate. He didn't hear someone enter the home, he just kept studying with the door open to help let in some fresh air from the kitchen.

Erro grunted as he shoved his bags through the doorway into the living room, swearing under his breath before looking around. He looked down the hall, unable to figure out what rooms were occupied. So he made his way to the nearest door, opening it to find what looked like a stripper studying something. Eyes wide, Erro began to splutter. “Oh, fuck, shit, sorry, I knew this place was too nice to be mine, fuck me, I’ll just—“ he rambled

Neo heard someone start to talk, dipped his head down under his shoulders and let out a yelp of a scream, flopping forwards onto his back skillfully. He sat up off of his crushed textbook, looking confused but not embarrassed.
"Who the bloody hell are you? And it's called knocking you know."

“I said I was sorry! They must have gave me the wrong room key again or something, I don’t know!” Erro said, fumbling to make his way back out the door again. Amun cooed curiously, tilting his head a bit in confusion as he studied Neo

Neo stood, glowering at Erro fled. "No! You're my new roommate, who can't care to tell me when you're supposed to get here." He stalled out of his room, a wiff of cold air brushing his legs and chest.
"Your room is right there." He pointed to a closed door.

“I didn’t know I was even gonna have a roommate, but thanks I guess,” Erro muttered bitterly, his distress having calmed now. Amun was tittering curiously now, busying himself with nibbling on Neo’s lower leg

Neo growled angrily at his new roommate, shaking his head. Stripper. Excuse me, Mr. Fucking-Crackhead… He glanced down at a weird thing licking at his lower leg.
"Um… what…? Pets aren't allowed in here."

“He’s not a pet, he’s my life support,” Erro muttered, rolling his eyes as he neatly set his things in a row by the door. He sat up now, stretching while he watched Amun just keep licking Neo’s leg

"Whatever. They're still not allowed," Neo said grumpily, still salty about the personal insult about what he finds comfortable. He couldn't bring himself to push off the tiny dog…. cat thing.

“Again, not a pet. At the very least, you can call him my familiar, which are allowed to registered witches. Don’t be an ass, okay?” Erro hummed, faking a smile to add to his sarcasm. Amun was just happy licking Neo, for reasons mostly unknown

"I'll be as much as an ass as I want," Neo snapped up at his new roommate, huffing and walking into his room to go sit back down. He'd have to open his window at risk of some crazy girl crawling in. But he didn't. He just kept his door open.

Erro just rolled his eyes. “Nice to know people hating witches is still a thing,” he muttered as he began to unpack, meticulously setting his things out, occasionally doing something oddly repetitive, like zipping his zipper every other run to his things, or tapping his foot three times before setting something on a shelf

Neo growled softly into the stifling hot air of his room. First the AC blows out then this person comes in tap-tapping away and zip-zipping. He always worked in a quiet area, and was not expecting a roommate like this.

Erro didn’t have many things to unpack, so he was done relatively quickly. He didn’t have much, but Amun was happy already beginning to dig into his supply of food. Sighing, the boy shook his head, scooping the creature up and cuddling him to his chest

Neo huffed and got comfortable once the taps stopped, his long legs flung over the footboard of his bed. They waved slightly as Neo practically sat upside down, the book propped on his hips and legs.
Just focus on the test and act like an asshole of a roommate isn't here…

Erro eventually sat down on the bed, flopping down. He began to rest his eyes, but as soon as he did so Amun wiggles out of his grasp to go bounding into Neo’s room, seemingly purring loudly

Neo huffed loudly into the air, a few flecks of spit spraying out of his mouth. He looked down at the animal, glaring.
"What?"

The creature pranced around in circles, cooing happily. It resembled a small, wingless dragon of sorts, covered in different gold and purple and blue accents. It then bounced over to Neo, pawing at his legs

"Noooooo go away, I'm trying to study!" Neo protested, flailing his legs, but not trying to hit the dragon in the process. He couldn't help a tiny laugh as the soft paws tickled his legs.

Amun yipped before jumping up on top of Neo, purring as he nuzzled the back of the other’s neck. Strange gold dust had begun to come off of him, cooling whatever it touched before dissolving harmlessly

Neo grunted and let his head rise off the bed. He looked mildly annoyed yet amused. "What in the world are you doing? I'm not saying it doesn't feel nice but… you don't even know me."

“He says you seemed grumpy, and he wanted to cheer you up,” came Erro’s answer as he passed by the hall, for once shedding his baggy hoodie to battle the heat. Amun tittered happily in response, snuggling up to the back of Neo’s neck

Neo rolled his eyes and sighed. "Right. Grumpy. I think you'd be grumpy too if someone rolled up into your house and…" He trailed off delicately, shaking his head and going back to his textbook and notes.

Erro just rolled his eyes, while Amun huffed and gently head butted Neo’s chin. He then began nibbling on Neo’s ear, settling on the other’s upper chest

(Neo is laying on his back, lmao)

Neo sighed loudly and rolled his eyes at the dragon. "What's wrong with him now? Did I say something that upset him? Cus I'm trying to pass this test."

(Shit okay lemme fix that lol)

Amun just stuck his tongue out at Neo before shedding some more gold dust out around them. He just curled up on the boy’s chest, and Erro looked annoyed as he walked by again, this time with a baseball bat in hand

Neo sighed deeply and rolled his eyes at the dragon, who was sitting directly in the way of his book.
"Really, thanks for the magical dust. But I need to study. The test is on Friday."

Amuno whined a little loudly, turning circles on Neo's chest before settling again. He began kitten-licking Neo's chin, more dust coming off of him while he purred happily

Neo rolled his eyes and rose the book a little on his legs, continuing with the bobbing of his legs as he read. He started to hum, his fingers twitching on the book at the licks.

Amun had busied himself with licking Neo's neck and chin, purring happily. Erro, however, was walking back and forth in the hallway, muttering what sounded like a spell as he did so, waving his baseball bat around in the process
