my BG3 character has developed such a strong personality that he keeps trying to break out of the game and make himself into the main character of an original story, which I am attempting to discourage, because God knows I do not need another WIP on my hands. I'll just draw pictures of him instead

Short Summary: The Cadou sometimes demands very high sacrifices from its host.
A loud humming sound echoed through the long corridors of the old mine, filling the otherwise desolate place with a breath of life. Salvatore eagerly set the little table with the few dishes he still had and placed a carafe with water in the middle of this setting. His eyes studied his work extensively. It was almost perfect, but a small piece was missing. The doctor turned slowly and smiled at the flickering television in the corner. One of his favourite series was currently on airtime, but at the moment he lacked the peace and quiet to enjoy it as usual. He would have a visitor tonight, and until everything was prepared, the man couldn't take a break. Salvatore strolled to the remaining cupboard in his possession and meticulously searched the individual compartments. He frowned. Nothing. The Lord stopped humming for a moment and thought hard about where he had last put the item he was looking for. Actually, there weren't that many ways in which his little kingdom could stow things safely. The doctor scratched his balding head in confusion. Groaning, he got down on his knees and rummaged through the lower part of the clunky closet. The man accidentally discovered a little mouse, which began to squeak loudly out of fear of the grotesque figure in front of it. Salvatore smiled gently and reached out his hand to the scared animal, closing his bulging fingers around the small rodent. This wriggled wildly in the unexpected clutch, sniffed excitedly or better afraid in the air. The successful hunter lifted the mammal closer to his face and spoke reassuringly to the tiny creature: “It's okay, my little furry friend. I'm not going to hurt you.” He carried the mouse carefully to the table and sat down on one of the three chairs. Finally he carefully placed the rodent on the plate with the fresh fruit. The animal made a little jump in pure shock, but then seemed grateful to pounce on the food that was offered. The mouse was terribly thin and looked frail. She had probably been sitting helplessly in the closet for some time. Salvatore watched his new friend eat with a small smile on his lips and took a sip of his water. At least the animals in his territory weren't really afraid of him.
The doctor lost himself in his thoughts for a moment until he realized in panic that he wasn't finished with his preparations. He casually apologized to the rodent and rose cautiously, then knelt again in front of the cupboard. His hand took out one object at a time. After a while, his fingers suddenly touched the cool porcelain he was looking for. The man took out the brightly decorated plate and blew once across the smooth surface. A little pile of dust swirled in the air. The Lord was kind of happy about his success in his short journey of finding old treasures and carried the missing dishes to the table. There the mouse was still busy eating. Salvatore placed the children's plate on the ramshackle wood and carefully examined his work. Wonderful. He sat down on the chair again and reached for his glass, draining the rest of the water in one big gulp. The doctor looked at the rodent again with a hint of satisfaction and very slowly stretched out his hand to the animal. This time the mouse wasn't frightened at all. He gently stroked his new friend's thin fur with one finger and whispered softly: “You poor little thing. How long did you have to sit in that dark closet? I'm terribly sorry.” There was a loud rustling. Apparently the reception of the TV got worse again. The man shrugged his shoulders slightly and concentrated on the petite animal on the plate. At least he was well entertained for the moment. Salvatore continued to stroke the rodent tenderly and listened to the usual noises of the mine. He probably wouldn't hear his guest coming. The Lord peered at the wooden board with the sliced cheese and frowned.
It was looking extremely tasty. He shook his head slightly and turned back to the mouse. Sometimes he had to exercise self-control. The animal suddenly looked up, stuck its nose in the air. The doctor leaned closer to the furry rodent and whispered calmly: “Well, did you hear something? Maybe this is our special guest. Shall I have a look?” The man swayed slightly and was about to leave for the entrance of the mine when he recognized a familiar shadow on the stonewall. In the next moment Donna strolled slowly around the corner, in her arms she held her dearly loved doll Angie. Salvatore looked at his visitor in surprise. She did not wear a mourning veil that evening. The doctor began to smile nervously and greeted the mysterious doll maker: “Good evening, Ms. Beneviento. It is always a pleasure to welcome you to my humble home. Come on, come on. The table is well set.” The woman did not reply to this euphoric request. Instead, the little doll in her arms spoke for her: “That's great. We're really hungry, Moreau.” The Lord laughed in relief and waved his guests inside. He went to the table and pulled back one of the chairs, motioning Donna to sit down. The black-haired woman sat down elegantly and stared at the man with empty eyes. He also adjusted the second chair, put a few empty boxes on the seat and finally asked, visibly excited: “I have prepared a seat for you this time too, Angie. Would you like to sit here today?” The doll turned her head to her creator and opened her mouth over and over again without an audible word. Presumably the two talked animatedly. Salvatore had learned in the meantime not to disturb his visitors during these silent conversations and looked around for the mouse. It was nowhere to be found.
The rodent was probably gone with a piece of sweet pear. The voice of the doll tore the doctor out of his thoughts: "I will gladly accept the offer, Moreau. Can you help me?" The person addressed chuckled happily and carefully held his hands in front of Angie. He did not dare to touch the wooden figure without the permission of her creator. Donna hesitated for a moment, but finally handed the doll to the trustworthy host. He took her almost tenderly and carefully sat her on the prepared chair. Angie looked around happily, fidgeting a little. She squeaked loudly: “Look here, Donna. I have my very own seat this time.” The doll maker actually managed a small smile at this statement. The Lord walked back to his chair and took a seat opposite the quiet woman. He picked up the loaf and divided it into evenly sized pieces. While Salvatore was passing the bread around, he spoke calmly: “Help yourself to everything that seems tasty to you or that invites you to dine with pleasure. Don't be too humble.” Together they began to eat without any hurry. Small conversations with Angie, who had a lot to talk about that evening in particular, continued to arise. Apparently the own seat for the lively doll had been a grandiose idea. The man really enjoyed their company. Usually the loneliness in his territory slowly ate him up and rotten his mind. Donna cleaned her mouth elegantly with a napkin, then placed her cutlery on the lower right of the plate. So she had already finished eating. In general, the doll maker was not a particularly good eater and had occasional dizziness attacks caused by hypoglycaemia. Angie chuckled softly. She had placed her cutlery in the same way as her creator and turned to the host who was still dining: “Donna has thought about your last visit to our house and decided to help you. That's why we brought you something today, Moreau.” The doctor stopped eating for a moment and stared at the doll in confusion. He gently wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, removing most of the loose breadcrumbs on and around his mouth. The Lord asked curiously: “You have brought something for me? What?” The doll maker leaned to one side of her chair and rummaged through an inconspicuous cloth bag, which the man hadn't really noticed before. After a quick search, Donna pulled out a small leather book.
Angie hastily explained: “You told us that you forgot a lot because of the Cadou. Especially how to read. You looked very sad and we decided to teach you how to read again. Then you don't just have to watch TV all day, you can for example continue to write on your research or read a nice novel!” The doctor became a little smaller in his chair. He was clearly embarrassed to have slowly lost this ability. The parasites in his body were taking too much of a toll. Salvatore played with his fingers in embarrassment and stuttered: “You two really want to help me to read again? You won't laugh at me either if I can't pronounce the letters correctly and make endless mistakes?” Both Angie and Donna shook their heads leisurely. The Lords eyes began to shine. He finally nodded in the affirmative and put the cutlery aside his almost empty plate. The doll maker rose from her chair and took it carefully with her as she walked around the table. She sat down next to her kind host. He looked hopefully at the woman, pushed the plate out of the way and waited patiently. Donna put the little book in the empty space and opened it at a leisurely pace, turning without haste to the first chapter. Angie laughed happily and climbed onto the table. She carefully sat down on the wood and looked down at the written page. Then something happened that Salvatore hadn't seen coming. The doll maker put a forefinger on the first line and began to read very slowly and clearly: "Long ago, a young girl went with her mother to pick berries for her father who was hard at work." The man frowned. He looked at the individual letters, tried to process and reproduce what he had heard. Donna smiled gently, read the sentence out loud again for the Lord. The doctor put a few fingers to his forehead and leaned lower to see the sentence better. His voice trembled when he hesitantly began to read: "Lon. Long. Long ago. A gir. A girl."
The woman would occasionally help him pronounce a word when he got too stuck. It took Salvatore almost six minutes to read the first line of the book almost fluently. He blinked slightly and looked up. Probably the two would now start to laugh at him for his stupidity. Angie actually laughed, but her words debilitated the man's suspicions: “That was great, Moreau! You haven't forgotten everything, and that's why you will soon be able to read the whole book without any problems!” He blushed a little at this unusual praise, but could no longer suppress a proud grin. The Lord looked back in the book and tried the next sentence. The doll nodded eagerly to him at this endeavour. Donna accompanied him patiently, and also helped him when he didn't know how to pronounce a word or was unsure. Salvatore was gradually losing his fear and becoming bolder with every correct word. It didn't seem that difficult any more. The doctor finished the second sentence of the fairy tale and laughed happily: “I'm reading, Donna. I'm actually reading!” The doll maker smiled at this statement, but remained silent as usual. Angie, on the other hand, laughed with him and cried out: “You can do it, Moreau! Just don't give up now and keep going! I love this story even more if you read it to me.” The man now seemed to have completely lost his shyness. So after a good twenty minutes he managed to read the first page of the book completely – albeit with occasional errors. He couldn't believe it. The Lord said happily: “I would never have dreamed that I would ever be able to read anything again.” The woman next to him nodded slowly and put her hands on her lap. Her doll replied for her again: “Donna says you can keep the book until you have finished reading it. Then she wants you to give it back to her.” Salvatore was speechless for a moment. He blinked away the emerging tears and replied emotionally: “Ms. Beneviento. How am I ever supposed to thank you for that?” The doll maker said nothing, just put her fragile fingers gently on the bulging back of the doctor's hand.

What other chaotic shenanigans has Michael cat gotten into? I feel like if something happens then Michael is just smiling endearingly, Quentin is wheezing, and Laurie is sighing lol
All kinds. Every animal on the block is afraid of him, including the pitbull three houses down that used to be king of the block and now is king of the block sans the Myers yard and gives Michael Cat a respectful distance and ducks his head when he sees the cat leering out the window at him.
He’s very destructive. Thankfully not of everything in the house, or all the furniture, but every so often he will decide a random object is his, and rip it to shreds with no warning signs. Also likes to steal things sometimes and leave them under Michael’s bed in a hoard just out of curiosity and maybe also as gifts? Loves to bring kills as gifts. Michael did not know cats did this and was confused and concerned greatly the first time his pet was yowling at the door to his room and he opened it to see the thing carrying a rat almost as big as himself. Michael Cat is most loving towards Michael, but he likes the whole regular gang (and adores Claudette, which is another story), and he specifically seems invested in impresssing Laurie. She is by far the most commonly given dead things as gifts, and she kind of appreciates it—especially since he is a really good mouser, and while I am deeply sympathetic to mice myself on a personal level, if you’ve ever had the misfortune to live in a house with a mouse problem, you understand how desperately horrible that is. Myers house was old and in bad repair and in Illinois, so uh, it definitely started with one. On the other hand, though, Laurie feels kinda bad for the mice, and doesn’t love finding dead things left neatly by her shoes all the time. She’s more impressed than inconvenienced though. Also, Michael Meowers is extremely smart. After seeing someone else give Laurie a flower once, and her be happy about it, he started adding flowers and leaves to his piles of gifts by her shoes. He’s extremely proud of himself and acts like whatever thefts or kills he’s able to manage are no big deal and just trifles to his endless energy and skill. Laurie is very appreciative, and the little kitty is gleeful about being praised. He tries to act aloof, but he’s super needy. He will pretend he doesn’t need your affection, but if he’s around and wanting attention and you start using a phone or reading, he’ll come over and start aggressively chewing on whatever you’re paying attention to that is not him in an attempt to redirect that attention. One night at the Myers house will void the warranty on a lifeproof case. He also just likes to bite, and is a show affection by biting cat with very sharp teeth and a licky cat. Michael loves him deeply and does not mind petting a purring bundle of black fur that is curled up on his lap and has its teeth sunk passively into his spare hand.
That’s all more kind of par for the course cat behavior though. As far as extreme chaos goes, beyond scaring the other animals in the neighborhood, Michae Cat also is impossible to contain. They try to keep him in the house, but he has shredded screens and broken windows before, somehow always unharmed in the process. Cat has stowed away on car rides, and run after them on walks. Once during its first week home, they left it in the house asleep and went for a stroll, and about ten minutes from home, heard the bouncy “meow-meow-meow-meow” of a cat calling after you while running and Laurie looked back to see him chasing them down, and almost had a heart attack. Luckily, he let himself be picked up and taken home, instead of running off. Another time, she, Quentin, Michael, David, and Nancy were all two hours into the drive to the cabin when Michael Cat just climbed out of the pile of suitcases without warning and spring loaded launched himself at Michael in the passenger seat and almost caused a wreck. Lots of screaming. He’s notorious for being impossible to contain or stop, and half the time, they don’t even know how he got out. He’s also very good at reading vibes in a room, and if someone he likes is talking to someone they hate, there is a 90% chance that slowly slides towards 100 the longer the conversation lasts, that he will leap out and attack them unprovoked for whatever has caused the bad vibes he is picking up on. It’s kind of beautiful. He attacked someone during a game tournament once on live video stream (again it was a place he wasn’t even meant to be. He showed away, and Laurie chose to carry him in instead of missing the event herself—an act she quickly regretted) because he could tell Quentin and Min didn’t like them, and he wanted to cause chaos probably as well. That competition had to reset, because the cat singlehandedly destroyed it, but to be fair, it was one of the most highly rated streams that con ever did. He’s a menace, but in the best possible way.
Weirdly, while Alex the crow is routinely shunned by other birds, and constantly very sad about this, and Michael Cat throws hands with anything that looks fun to fight on sight, after a few initial scrapes at their first several meetings, the two started vibing, and Michael Cat was the first animal to decide it liked Alex. It’s weird, because Alex sure does not like cats, and Michael usually will try to attack and kill any bird, but those two will play with each other if they get the chance, and genuinely seem interested in each others’ company. No one knows why.
Also, while only medium chaotic, Michael Cat causes the most trouble for Claudette. Unfortunately, this is becuase he loves her, and no one has any idea how to curb this issue. She’s like his second favorite person ever after a time early the first year when she saved his life, and since she’s an angel now in his head, he always tries to give her gifts. Early on, he caught her a mouse that he hadn’t totally killed (as cats often do), and she was super distressed and saved the mouse and nursed it back to health and then let it go. Unfortunately though, Michael Cat, who watched this all go down, had his takeaway from that be “Wow she had so much fun playing with that—she loved it,” and now every time he sees her, will try to capture a live something for her and drop it off. She has had to nurse a lot of birds back to health and it distresses her so much. Michael Cat thinks he’s incredible and doing an amazing gift giving job. 50% of the time Claudette visits, they’ll have gotten halfway through a conversation, and then hear the pad-pad-pad of kitty feet and a sad cheeping sound and a proud meow from the floor and Claudette will go “Oh no,” with great sadness, and go accept her wounded house finch and get to work of go take it to an animal clinic. This has drastically curbed his actual kill count though, so that’s a plus. Laurie is working on trying to get him to stop targeting birds at least and only pick on rodents at present. It’s working, just slowly.
About a year in, Michael and Laurie were going through files, and old newspapers, and there was a picture of Loomis in one, and Michael clearly and visibly had such a strong reaction to it that Michael Cat ripped it up and ate it in solidarity, and they let him (well, Laurie tried to stop the eating part) becuase it was kind of nice. Kitty was feeling the chaos that day, and kept ripping up pictures as they went through, and since then, it has turned into almost a game or a trick. Cat will shred all Loomis photos with a vengeance. It’s a very cathartic party trick for his namesake.
He also regularly just decides to attack things, or that a random object is his and will snag it and begin a chase while whatever poor person he has robbed screams for him to stop and gives chase. Sometimes this is becuase he wants the thing, sometimes becuase he wants the chase. Objects stolen or attacked have included keys, food—especially poisonous to cats food, headbands, books, phones, necklaces, wallets, kitchen knives, Tapp’s gun (no one understands how he got it—the panic was real and complete), Jake’s engagement ring (taken off his finger), letters, wrapped presents, term papers, scarves, and more. Cat also figured out early on that Frank was nervous around him specifically, and since made it his goal to go bother him and follow him around whenever he’s there for maximum discomfort. I don’t think he’s even really trying to be mean—just the urge to cause trouble is too compelling to fight.

Neal and Animals Would Include...
Tumblr media
Dogs
            Neal Caffrey loved dogs and you supposed you honestly weren’t surprised. He reminded you of a dog in a lot of favorable ways – loyal, friendly, happy, and energetic. He made friends with dogs that came sniffing up to him in the street, played happily with Satchmo whenever he saw the Burkes’ pet, and was a very polite and fun tenant of June’s dog, Bugsy. If you had to guess whether Neal was a dog or a cat person, you definitely would’ve guessed on the side of dogs from the get-go.
            And yet, you’d also never had him pegged as impractical. Impulsive, yes, but impractical? Neal often made impulsive decisions because they seemed the most practical at the time. That’s why you were so surprised that you were now going on a walk with him in Central Park alongside a purebred husky pup with big paws.
            “So you just… volunteered?”
            “It’s a good offer,” Neal defended his choice. One of June’s friends needed a dog sitter while she went out of down, and even though it would be hard for him to care for a pet while working long days at the bureau and simultaneously not being able to go to the pet store out of his radius for quality dog food, he had eagerly proposed his services.
            “You’re not even being paid,” you pointed out exasperatedly.
            “Sure I am!” He optimistically countered. “In the priceless medium of building connections and making a stronger place for myself in June’s community.”
            “You just wanted an excuse to have a dog for a while.”
            Your accusation was met with a sheepish, but not at all ashamed, smile from Neal. The blue-eyed man shrugged haplessly and the husky pulled on its leash.
  Cats
            You knocked on Neal’s door pretty loudly, just in case he had his earbuds in and was painting or something. Luckily, you had never walked in on anything awkward, but you had learned that Neal didn’t always hear when you just called through the door.
            He answered quickly and was fully dressed, no art supplies anywhere in sight. You held up a to-go bag with his usual lunch order from the deli, but Neal was already urging you inside, beckoning with his hand and grinning widely. He closed the door behind you swiftly like he was afraid something was going to get in or out.
            “Neal, what are you-?”
            “Sh!” He interrupted you with the same huge smile. It was honestly pretty adorable – he was usually so controlled and charismatic that you didn’t often get these genuine beams. “She’s sleeping!” His own voice was a stage-whisper.
            “She?” You repeated, indulging him and lowering your voice. You couldn’t think of anyone who Neal would have sleeping in his penthouse, except for maybe June (the landlady) or Mozzie (who wasn’t using female pronouns, last time you checked). As you thought about it, you frowned. Maybe he has someone over. Neal was easily one of the most flirtatious men you’d ever met.
            Neal put a hand on your lower back and guided you over towards the sofa, where he leaned over the back to look down on the cushions. His expression melted like ice cream in Australia and he reached down to very gently touch something.
            You looked away from him and down. There, curled up inside his upside-down fedora, was a tiny little ball of fuzzy, fine fur. Neal let his fingertips play over the soft kitten’s neck while its ears twitched jumpily, but it stayed asleep.
            You really weren’t sure what to make of the scene. Where did Neal get a cat? Why was she in his hat to begin with? Why was he letting her stay in his hat? How did he plan to feed her? Was he going to keep her? Why weren’t you petting the small fluffy animal right this instant?!
            Without questioning the situation much more, you reached over and dipped your hand into the hat to feel the kitten’s fur. She was a soft orange tabby with pale white spots on her head and tail.
            “Hey, Neal.”
            “Hm?”
            “I guess you could say the kitten is the cat in the hat.”
            “Do you want to leave?”
  Ferrets
            Seeing Neal play with a ferret made you feel like something was fundamentally wrong with the universe. A ferret climbing up his arm, and he wasn’t swatting it off? Sure, ferrets weren’t exactly sewer rats, but still. You knew Neal liked domestic animals, but you hadn’t realized that extended very far past June’s pet pug and Peter’s yellow lab.
            “It’s on your shoulder,” you pointed out, unable to concentrate. It kept moving. It had tiny little claws that you couldn’t imagine felt good, but Neal had taken off his suit jacket specifically so he could play with the ferret.
            Neal hummed agreement. The ferret’s head swiveled towards you, small eyes seeming both beadily intimidating and playfully mischievous at the same time. Its adorable pink nose twitched.
            You put your pen down. The crime victim you were interviewing had accidentally released the ferret from its cage while trying to give it more water, and Neal had been first to catch it. Since then, he and the animal had apparently become best friends. The victim had shrugged and gone to get her receipt book to prove her alibi, leaving you alone with him and a free-roaming rodent.
            “Why are you letting it on your shoulder?” You objected. You would let it on your shoulder, but Neal didn’t strike you as the type who loved animals enough to let them crawl on his nice shirts.
            “Ferrets are actually pretty clean animals,” Neal pointed out, holding his arm out horizontally and bending his elbow. The ferret squeaked and raced down his arm to his wrist, where it paused before tentatively sniffing again and placing a dainty little limb on the back of Neal’s hand. “Especially when they’re healthy and taken care of. And this little guy is.” It squeaked again at the perfectly uncanny time and Neal smiled.
            The artist moved his other arm under the first. It slowly moved its front half over the curve of his arm and down towards the other. While doing so, it stretched out to a fuller length. You leaned back, shocked – it reminded you of an accordion.
  Foxes
            Strangely, you were starting to get used to this.
            “Stop feeding it,” you complained, on a stakeout mission with the thief. “It’ll never go away if you don’t stop.”
            “Maybe I don’t want it to go away.” Neal retorted defensively, ripping off another small piece of croissant and tossing it towards the ground right outside his slightly-open car door. The little fox outside skittered towards it happily and ate it right up, just like it had been doing. Neal tore off another piece of croissant. “This is better than watching that house.”
            “I’ve already told you, we’re here because of a tip, not because of anything concrete. I’m not exactly having fun, either!”
            “Well, that’s too bad, because I’m enjoying myself.” Neal sounded imperious, but he sent you a wink while ripping off a small third part of his pastry. “It helps when you make friends with the locals.”
            “Stop calling the fox a local like it’s an actual person!”
            Neal appeared wounded and held a hand over his heard. “Don’t you get it? The foxes have to stick together.”
            As he compared himself to the animal, you snorted and rolled your eyes. “So you’re playing with the wildlife because you wanted an excuse to call yourself foxy and hot?”
            His big blue eyes went wide. You knew it was an act, but you also knew you’d fallen right into a trap, and so you groaned into your hand. Neal tossed another piece of croissant to the lone red fox while teasing you. “I was referring to the association of being clever, cunning, and up to no good. You think I’m hot, Y/N?”
  Wolves
            Animal smuggling wasn’t a white-collar crime, but it was part of your latest case. You’d thought that the valuable cargo being shipped in from Greenland was actually counterfeit money, but once you’d actually intercepted the shipment and arrested your bad guys, you found something very unexpected: when the top of the crate was pried up, there was a wolf.
            An actual, living, breathing wolf, about the height of Satchmo but longer and slimmer, had been smuggled as an exotic pet from Greenland. Its specific species was yet to be determined, but its fur was thick and white and you thought its face looked a little longer than most wolves you saw in the zoo.
            Neal, for once, showed the proper wariness of a strange animal, but he kept looking at it curiously. You did, too. There was a huge difference between homeless vermin like foxes on the street and an actual, captive wolf. You were fascinated and thought the wolf was beautiful, and it looked so soft. After several minutes, Neal pointedly glanced at you and then back to the crate.
            “Okay,” you relented without actually waiting for him to say or do something. “Come on. But we move slowly, and pull our hands back if he acts like he’s getting aggressive.”
            Neal grinned sneakily like he was getting away with something and excitedly came with you towards the shipping crate. “Just a couple minutes.”
            “Yeah, yeah.” Still, you kept watch to warn him when he was about to be scolded. Neal offered his hand first, and the wolf sniffed at his knuckles. The wolf couldn’t care less about Neal after that, and the conman took that as his invitation to start petting.
             Once Neal’s hand had been un-attacked for several seconds, you put yours in, too, first offering for the wolf to smell your closed fist. Its dry, rough nose bumped at the side of your thumb, then, like with Neal, it was done dealing with you. You slipped your hand into the fur on top of its head and cautiously scratched, wondering at how it felt. You expected it to be soft – in actuality, it was warm, but rough and coarse.
            “I’m petting a wolf,” you said aloud, surprised. Neal grinned at you, and you declared, “Are you sure you’re supposed to be a conman? Because I’m thinking you’d be pretty happy working at a wildlife center.”
            “Nah,” Neal dismissed quickly, smiling as the wolf sort of noncommittally leaned its head toward his hand. “Too dirty. This way I get to do all the playing and none of the cleaning and maintenance.”
