[There was a series of events that happened before this. Such situations didn't arise out of nowhere, after all.
It's just that the VERY MOMENT that Velveteen opened the door to the cat cafe, several things happen at once.
The most immediate being a cat leaping RIGHT AT HIM, with a loud bit of plastic caught on their tail, and all of the overstimulated FLIGHT REACTION that entails.
[Brocade is very lucky that Velveteen has extremely honed reflexes. Why? Who knows? But they're there, and he's managing to snag the cat out of midair just before panicked claws can sink into his face, his own tail whipping around to slam the door shut behind him.]
They are! He has a frightening amount of brains for a cat with no brains.
[Now that the OFFENDING DEMON THAT WAS GOING TO EAT HIM IS NO LONGER CHASING HIM INESCAPABLY, Asshole tolerates the wiggling, paws dangling, and alarm-fluffed tail swaying behind him.
75% chance he'll allow cuddling. 25% chance he's plotting for another chance at the horns.]
[He gives the two of them a grin and then saunters back to the counter, fluffy tail swaying behind him. (Queso bats at it, but Brocade pays him no mind.)]
You missed Bel by an hour if that's the agenda today. [Zibeline really had only left out of protest - or class schedules. Same thing.] Buuuut, I got a new menu if you wanna try it out. And soothe that troublemaker a while.

And Sett yelling:]

Re: [Dan Heng]
Comere Asshole. Hold him- will ya?
[Going to AVOID THE FLAILING LIMBS OF SHARPNESS to try and free that tail.]
Re: [Dan Heng]
What happened?
1/2
[It's a good thing because Asshole makes a good solid swipe for the base of the nearest horn. Denied.]
Re: [Dan Heng]
[He WEAVES. DODGES A RABBIT KICK FROM ASSHOLE WITH THE SKILL OF AN MMA FIGHTER.
And snags the sticky wrapper on the tail.]
WHOO! GOT IT!!!
Re: [Dan Heng]
[sways Asshole in the air like the little bastard man he is, once the wrapper is off.]

Re: [Dan Heng]
Isn't that how cats always are?
Re: [Dan Heng]
In the meantime, Asshole just lets himself be held like baby, except for putting a paw on Dan Heng's face. No closer, Sir.]

Re: [Dan Heng]
[it is his time for kitties. pleased tailswishing.]
I'd like that.
Re: [Dan Heng]
[He nods at Asshole, who is now patting at Vee's face. How dare he stop TRYING to kiss, which he is not allowed to do??]
Hazard pay.
