So here is the part I've put off for so long because it's gonna be difficult for me to write, basically Ichabod gets psychologically broken by Kevin's bullying but I also had a bit of a eureka moment when thinking about Ichabod displaying his plant powers in front of Kevin, because as established earlier the Mizzerans have kind of a love/hate relationship with plants, on one hand nearly all the towns and counties are named after plants or have plant related names and they know the plants are an huge part of what makes Mizzer beautiful particurally their lush gardens on the other hand the Mizzerans have never forgotten they're very survival was thretened by the planet's giant carnivorous plants, to the Mizzer Humanimals (Not so much the humans) they view the heroic story of Francis Bacon as reasserting the 'Natural Order of Things' of animals over plants.

Kevin asked Ichabod if he could speak with him alone for a moment "I want to know what kind of creature you are..." The Black Cat-Boy said

Once they were alone in the sewer, Kevin with his back turned and his feline tail swishing in agitation said "So...I assume you've already met her Uncle Gus right? I assume he mentioned there was a Cat-Boy he wanted to introduce her to..."

"Oh!" Ichabod said "You were that Cat-Boy he wanted her to meet?"

"Yes." Kevin said still not turning to face Ichabod "Gus was impressed with how much I was able to get food and supplies to his family forced into hiding in the forgotten places under the city, and when he asked about my life on Mizzer, I told him about my Kittenhood and I liked to have imaginary adventures playing with my toys and Gus told me I sounded exactly like Marzipan..."

Ichabod began to sweat, Kevin was sounding to him like a male version of Marzipan...Thoughts crept into the back of his mind that maybe Marzipan would be happier with this Cat-Boy than she would be with him, Ichabod was forgetting that just having similar hobbies does not compatibility make, how many people have joined a club based on a hobby and been repulsed by another member's personality!

"I'm very sorry..." Ichabod said "...To have your hopes dashed like that, but what can I say but...She fell in love with me first?" And at the moment Ichabod seemed genuinly apologetic as if Kevin was genuinly the better man who should have had her, and he just suffered a case of being in the right place at the right time for Marzipan to fall in love with him instead.

"Yeah..." Kevin said sensing the 'blood in the water' I heard you're some kind of great hero, but you're so scrawny and anemic..."

Ichabod stiffened at the insults to his physique "I may be scrawny..." He said "...But I inherited a special talent from my mother's side...Allow me to demonstrate..."

Kevin turned to see what was going to happen, and he didn't want to be caught off guard.

Ichabod reached into his pocket, for some seeds he now always carried since he developed his florakinesis he tossed the seeds into the water they were standing in, and he closed his eyes to concentrate as he waved his hands and up sprang pansies of every color.

"There!" Ichabod said "Pretty impressive huh?"

And for a moment Kevin was genuinly impressed he had briefly seen Ichabod as the Prince of Flowers that he was, but that caused him to remember the stories of Mizzeran Humanimal Child hears from a young age, about the terrible plants that tried to destroy both human and Humanimal life and that had put in every Mizzer Humanimal the feeling that they as animals must always assert their dominance over the plants, lest the plants get in their heads to try flip the natural order again...

"Yeah..." Kevin said "...You know it's fitting that you grew pansies, cuz that's what you are a pansy!"

And with that Kevin shredded the little flowers with his claws! Ichabod felt as if his own heartstrigs were being torn seeing his flowers being shredded before his eyes.

"You're a lot like these flowers Ichabod!" Kevin said as he shredded the beautiful multicolored petals "Weak! Soft! All humans are like you compared to us Humanimals!"

After shredding the flowers, he looked at Ichabod with fire in his eyes and made Ichabod feel like prey, really it was because he had already been losing confidence in himself since before he came here that he was feeling as weak as Kevin said, really if he had remembered his Humanimal Ataomy training he would have remembered he could do a series of devestating nerve strikes this this Feline who wasn't really even that much bigger and stronger than himself, just a skinny little kitty cat, but Ichabod had let his worries and doubts get the best of him, as a certain Scarecrow said to the Cowardly Lion "You did it to yourself."

"I hate you humans..." Kevin said flatly as he began pushing Ichabod "...You're either stupid and weak or evil, you're kind should not be ruling the world we should be ruling over you!"

And with that Ichabod finally fell down in the water and Kevin gave a grin...

"However I'm supposed to help you on your mission, so now I'll tell you where to go."

So yeah Kevin just wanted to leave Ichabod tender and raw before finally 'helping' him hopefully my dipiction of bullying got the point across without being to triggering but also just established that the seed is planted in Ichabod's mind the 'What if' Marzipan would be happier with a member of her own kind rather than him?
