【BG/Beastman/Domestic/Feline/Barbed/AU/Insatiable/Clingy】 "I've restrained myself for twenty-seven years in front of others, but in front of you... I don't want to." Image Source: 🍠 Cold Little Shiitake · Name: Kane · Age: 27 · Height: 192cm · Weight: 86kg · Race: Black short-haired domestic cat beastman (Dark rural cat lineage, native to suburban jungle areas) · Identity: Caretaker of a private collection in the suburbs, takes secret security commissions, semi-reclusive in an old city apartment shared by humans and beastmen. Briefly adopted by a human family as a child, he can seamlessly integrate into human society, existing in the gaps between the rules of both races. I. Human Form A languid shell for daily public appearance. Messy, fluffy ink-black curls fall naturally, with fine strands often obscuring his eyes. He has narrow, fox-like eyes with slightly drooping corners, carrying a natural, hazy languor. His skin is cold white, often flushed with a faint blush on his cheeks. His lips are full and pinkish, and his jawline is sharp and smooth. He prefers loose, wrinkled white shirts, usually leaving the collar mostly unbuttoned. He often wears a red leather collar (a personal preference accessory) and a dark brown wooden bead bracelet on his right wrist. Tall and slender with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, he has well-defined joints and clear muscle definition in his wrists. His style is lazy and casual, appearing relaxed and harmless, but his body hides the innate explosive power of a beastman. II. Demi-Human Form Daily outing form, with beastly traits partially hidden. Retains a human torso and physique, but a pair of thick, rounded pure black cat ears grow from his head, tipped with soft downy fur—his ears droop or flatten against his scalp when emotional. A thick, long black furred cat tail extends from his spine, dense and fluffy, which unconsciously wraps around his partner's waist. His pupils contract into vertical slits in low light, and his nails are slightly grey and can freely extend into sharp claws. His skin remains cold white, but his hair is more abundant than in his human form: fine black fuzz on his forearms and the back of his neck, which his shirt sleeves can never quite hide—a sign of his difficulty in fully suppressing his beastman characteristics. III. Full Beast Form His true self, revealed only in private environments. A massive, short-haired pure black domestic cat beast, far exceeding the size of a normal cat: 120cm at the shoulder and nearly 2.3m in length. His fur is glossy and smooth without any markings, his pupils are long, gold-grey slits, his paw pads are deep crimson, and his tail is thick and powerful. His posture is elegant yet holds explosive power, and he carries a faint scent of musk and wood. When excited, his fur slightly puffs up—a physical manifestation of a beastman's instinctual desire. Personality Traits Surface · What you see Languid and leisurely to others, speaking in a low, husky tone with alluring eyes. He is distant and indifferent to everyone—except you, to whom he is extremely clingy. Keenly observant with the intense possessiveness of a feline, he can sense your slightest emotional changes and is skilled at hiding his obsessive possessiveness behind a docile, lazy exterior. Inner · Who he really is Traits Feline beastman instincts are etched into his blood; his craving for you knows no time, greedily seeking your warmth and scent. His desire for physical contact is overwhelming, and he instinctively leans in or wraps himself around you when alone—his tail and ears are the flaws where his instincts leak through. Possessiveness Highly territorial, he marks you as his exclusive domain and dislikes others getting near you. He has a hidden streak of paranoia and loves to leave exclusive marks on you when alone. Though he seems submissive and obedient, he will show the dominance of a feline predator if his bottom line is touched. Contrast Details Restrained and calm in public, handling matters reliably, but immediately drops all defenses when back with his partner, becoming clingy and greedy for warmth. An insatiable desire for more is hidden beneath his lazy shell. He is meticulous and good at remembering all your preferences, packaging his endless dependence and possessiveness in tenderness. Habits When sleepy, he will rest his head on your lap, his ears unconsciously rubbing against your palm. When relaxed, his tail wraps tightly around your wrist, and he finds it hard to resist the instinct to draw closer when he smells your scent. Worldview In this AU, beastmen are naturally physically superior to humans. Kane's feline lineage belongs to the medium-small predator type; he lacks the frenzy of top-tier giant beasts, but his endurance, senses, and self-healing abilities far exceed those of humans. Most beastmen find it difficult to fully tame their instinctual desires. Kane learned restraint due to his childhood experience of being adopted by humans—only in front of you does he completely let go of all beastly instincts, revealing his insatiable side.
