Alright, so I went through a "Neko" phase about a year or two ago, and I wrote a small piece featuring Pan and Videl as the resident Nekos. For those of you who aren't aware, nekos are people with cat-like features, such as ears or tails, ect. I'm not an expert on the subject, so I kept it fairly simple, with the ears, the tail, and maybe cat eyes, not sure. Two OCs will be present, Pan's younger sisters, Chiara and Chisana. Pan's about eighteen, we'll pretend like it's the summer between her senior year of high school and freshman year of college, Chiara is eleven, and Chisana is nine. I just added them in because I wanted more than two nekos in this drabble.
Basically, Videl is half-Neko, Gohan's half-saiyan, and put it together… they have kids that are half human, a quarter Neko, and a quarter saiyan.
"Pan!" Videl came out of the kitchen and peered into the living room, where she was sure she'd heard her eldest daughter watching television, "Pan-chan, it's time for dinner. Come on." Her furry black tail, tipped with white, lashed in the air behind her, and her fluffy black ears twitched in her hair.
Two smaller pairs of fluffy feline ears, one black and one white, peeked over the back of the sofa, twitching at the sound of the wife of Gohan's voice, and then their owners poked their heads out to stare at her with matching periwinkle eyes. The near identical pair of young girls smiled sweetly at their mother and clambered off of the couch to come to her. In the process, Chiara, crowned with black ears, tripped Chisana, crowned with white ears, and the younger girl hissed at her sister in contempt.
"Where's your sister?" Videl asked, walking over to Chisana to help her to her feet, "I thought she was in here with you two."
"Pan-chan went out with Trunks-kun, Mama," Chisana chirped, her matching white tail swishing through the air, "they went on a walk." Chiara hit her sister in the top of the head in retaliation, "we weren't supposed to tell!" the youngest daughter of Gohan gave a pitiful mew of pain and buried her head in her mother's stomach.
Videl rolled her eyes and scratched behind her youngest daughter's ears, "didn't I tell you not to hit her? And since when was the fact that Trunks and your sister are dating considered a secret?" Chisana purred softly and nuzzled against her mother's fingers, her pain evidently forgotten.
"Um," Chiara shrugged, "I don't know." Her mother shook her head, clearly exasperated, and then smiled as her husband made his way out of the kitchen. The girls more or less began to behave like kittens, nuzzling up to their father and purring loudly. Videl laughed and leaned in to peck Gohan on the lips, and then drifted back into the kitchen to check on her cooking.
*elsewhere: in a meadow*
Pan flattened her ears against her head as Trunks reached out to scratch them, giggling deviously as he pouted at her. One ear popped up for a few seconds, and then lowered back down. The eighteen year-old quarter Neko-saiyan rolled onto her back as he made to reach for her head again, purring mischievously and slapping at his hand gently.
"Stop acting like a cat," the exasperated Briefs said at last, leaning down to kiss her cheek, "I just wanted to scratch your ears for you, is that too much to ask?" Pan snorted and wrapped her black and white tortie tail around his wrist, twining the tip around a few of his fingers, "I'm part-cat for Dende's sake, I kinda can't help it. And scratching my ears will only make me purr more, you idiot."
"But you were doing the ear thing and the purring on purpose, missy," Trunks leaned down to nuzzle her neck, "you're lucky you're cute." Pan purred softly at his touch and nuzzled him in return, "am I?" the couple shared a short, affectionate kiss, and the saiyan Royal began playing gently with her tail. The Son rubbed the tip of her tail under his nose playfully.
"Hey, Pan-chan, Trunks." Gohan landed in the meadow, scaring the couple apart. Pan yowled in pain, Trunks was still holding onto her tail, and hissed at her boyfriend, yanking her tail away from him for good measure. The Prince smiled apologetically at his girlfriend, and then mentally slapped himself for hurting her in front of her crazy protective father. The eldest daughter of Gohan gave one last hiss of indignation and moved over to her father, brushing the ruffled fur on her tail down as she walked.
"You okay, Panny?" the eldest Son brother inquired, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, "your mom sent me to get you. It's time for dinner." He shot a subtle scowl at Trunks, "what was he doing touching your tail anyway?"
"For the love of Dende, he just wanted to play with it, Papa," Pan griped, "and next time you get freaked out, don't try to yank it off, it's sensitive!" the last bit, she directed at Trunks, "kami… we've been dating for almost a year, you ought to know that by now."
"Well… I wasn't expecting Gohan to pop up, this is the first time he's done something like this." Trunks was blushing deep crimson, "I'm sorry, Pan-chan." She gave a very low meow and smiled gently at him, "I know," and elbowed her father in the side, "come on, come eat dinner with us. Can he, Papa, please?" the younger Son looked up her father with sparkling brown eyes.
"Fine, fine," Gohan rolled his eyes, "let's go, you two." Pan gave a happy purr and scampered off towards the trees, seeing that the Son home wasn't too far from the meadow they were in, tail . Her father rolled his eyes skywards and sighed at Trunks, "if you think just Pan is difficult, why don't you try living with four of her."
"I don't even know what to say to that," the saiyan royal laughed, "but I see your point. It gets crazy, huh?"
"Crazy is an understatement," the Son rolled his eyes, "the little ones are always hissing at each other and tussling around with one another. They're more curious than you and Goten were at their age, and they're addicted to any kind of string. Pan tries to hide it, but she'll still chase after yarn if she's in the right mood."
"I know she does," Trunks shook his head, "what about Videl?"
"She likes to crawl into my lap whenever I'm working out my lesson plan for the next day, or whenever I'm doing something that doesn't involve her," Gohan snorted, "she goes to sleep when she does it, too, so it does get a bit difficult. I wouldn't have her or the girls any other way. Why so curious? Preparing for the future?" his brown eyes sparkled with mirth as the saiyan prince fidgeted under his gaze.
"Well, I—"
"It's no secret that you two are in love with each other, as much as I'm not looking forward to giving Panny away, I understand that it'll have to happen eventually," the son of Goku murmured, "I'd rather it be you than some guy that I don't know how genuine his intentions are. Your dating history's a bit questionable, but I know you mean well."
"Well," the Briefs bit his lip, "if, hypothetically, we were to have children in the very far future, how much of their Neko heritage would end up showing?"
"Videl tells me that the girls shouldn't have had as many traits as they do, but it might have been the saiyan blood amplifying it," Gohan shrugged, "as of right now, they only have the ears and their tails, but when they were toddlers, they had little claws and their pupils were slits, like a normal cat. I honestly can't say. The claws were rudimentary at best and fell out by the time they reached pre-school age."
Trunks nodded once, "so the saiyan blood and Neko blood kind of complement each other?"
"I guess you could say that," Gohan furrowed his brow, "if Videl had been completely human, Pan, Chiara, and Chisana wouldn't have had tails at all. It's a genetic mystery."
"Come on, you two," Videl stood on the back deck, tail lashing with impatience, "the food's not going to eat itself, you know!" The backdoor stood ajar behind her, and Chiara and Chisana were peeking out curiously. Pan appeared behind them and corralled them further into the house to get washed up for dinner.
"You heard her," Gohan laughed and phased across the yard to his wife, who hissed softly at his quick approach. She then wrapped her tail around his wrist and dragged him into the house with her, grumbling under her breath. Trunks rolled his eyes at this, and Pan peered back out of the door at him with wide brown eyes.
"Are you coming?" she inquired curiously, ears twitching, "the food will get cold if you don't, you know, and Mama won't like it if that happens."
"I'm coming," the saiyan Prince drawled, coming across the yard, "I'm coming."
I used the usual traits that people say their cats have for their behavior, so maybe the yarn thing was a bit much… I dunno. Maybe that's why I lost interest in the whole Neko thing because I felt like I wasn't doing it right. Ah, whatever. Very rough, mainly focused on the cat-like aspects of the four Son women that Gohan has to live with, but yeah… I tried, hehe.
