"Hand over that sickle, kitty cat."

Another illustration for my now complete fanfic The Golden Hourglass' ninth chapter. Only two more to go!

My multi-chaptered Puss in Boots: The Last Wish fanfiction, The Golden Hourglass, is finally complete!

Thank you for all your support, dear readers! I sincerely hope you like the conclusion to the story, and I would love to hear your thoughts.

Enjoy!

It’s Not In The Stars

Every mortal had a soulmate. Death didn’t.

"So?" Puss’ red rose twirled between his claws.

"So, you should stop pursuing me, and go back to your soulmate," Death growled.

"Kitty and I have an open relationship. Sweet of you to worry, though," Puss purred.

"I’m not supposed to mingle with mortals! This is why I don’t have a mark!"

"That doesn’t sound like a ‘no,’" Puss caressed Death’s chin with the flower. "I don’t care what fate has to say. But I do care about your answer."

Despite his suave voice, the rose trembled in his paw.

Death took it.

One Step From Your Grave

Cats had nine lives, but only one Death, like everyone else.

Puss in Boots had always laughed at the notion. He didn’t need a creepy shadow warning him about lethal danger, he was a legend.

Until his spare lives ran out.

Then the wolf appeared.

Puss slowly pushed his drink away. His Death sneered:

"Now you’re paying attention."

"Why… aren’t you moving away?"

"I will, once you sober up."

A claw tilted Puss’ chin up.

"When you do, you’d better remember this," his Death growled: "I won’t let you ignore my signs anymore. If I get this close again, run."

Here is an illustration for The Golden Hourglass' seventh chapter: Puss just caught some breakfast!

And So We Fall

"They sent the Angel of Death to get me? I’m flattered."

"No one sent me."

"You came on your own?! That’s breaking the rules!"

"You’re one to talk."

"What did I do to get you this mad at me?! Was it this town I saved from annihilation?"

"They will die eventually. I don’t care."

"What’s this about, then?!"

"What do you think? Why did you fall in the first place?"

"…For sleeping with mortals?"

"As a cat."

"Duh, cats are irresistible. I miss my wings, but honestly? Best form to get stuck in."

"…"

"…Not here to kill me, are you?"

Homespun Vessel

"Hey, Lobo! I got your parts!"

Death raised his head from the open bowels of his vessel. Puss in Boots glided in and landed beside the wolf with a flap of the leather wings Death had crafted for him. There was some beautiful irony in watching his creation come to life.

"Not as fashionable as my cape, but they’re very cool," the cat flaunted his wings. "So yes, I will help you upgrade your boat."

"Good," Death smirked. "You will be more comfortable when you ride it."

"Sure, eventually."

"How much for these parts?"

"One kiss," Puss winked. "Or thereabouts."

I Don't Want Your Shadow

"No… You can’t be here, this is supposed to…!"

"Make you immortal?"

Death sneered at the cat cowering inside the sealed pod:

"All this machine can do is gather data from your memories, create an approximate replica of your legend, and upload it into a robot.

"I don’t chase lifeless shams, Puss in Boots. I am here for you," Death’s sickle knocked on the glass. "You’re gonna use your last moments to ‘save’ your precious legend? Or are you gonna fight?"

Death could crush him inside the pod; instead, he waited.

Puss clenched his sword, and slammed the cancel button.

Art for DeathPuss Week Day 3: Hanahaki.

It goes with my drabble Flowers From Your Ashes, which I wrote for the same prompt. Let's just say that Death has... conflicting feelings for Puss in Boots, and leave it at that.

Flowers From Your Ashes

A good day to die, and a fine time for gardening.

Wasn’t it convenient that Death used sickles for work?

To add insult to injury, the cat died by fire this time. The flowers in the wolf’s lungs withered like all the sunlight and water had just vanished from the world. They were dry when Death spat them out and cut their stems. Orange and red gladioli, like the previous six times.

Death knew Puss in Boots would revive, and so would the cut blooms in Death’s lungs.

Another three lives for the cat to waste.

Until the last harvest.

Pestilential Tide

Death waited by the riverbank of Hamelin.

A black tidal wave rose and collapsed, narrowly missing the tabby running from the giant swarm of rats.

Wild-eyed, claws out, the cat growled around the ancient rat trapped in his maw, swatted fiercely at the rodents that came too close, shook off the ones that jumped on his back, without slowing down.

Puss jumped into the river, claws gripping a drifting log. The rats tried to swim to their captured leader. They got swallowed by the wild currents like black foam.

"You’re giving me a real workout," Death shook his head fondly.

Words Unspoken

Jack Horner’s wish had cataclysmic consequences.

All magical creatures were stripped of their powers or disappeared outright. Those who remained were entirely at the mercy of an all-powerful tyrant.

Puss could no longer talk, wield a sword, or stand on his hind legs. But he remembered who he was.

The wolf remembered him too. Puss had known as soon as they had met again, red eyes locked on green.

He looked from the cat to the former pie factory turned magical fortress. They were headed the same way.

Words were unnecessary. Their intent was clear:

‘We’ll take him down together.’

I just posted chapter 9 of The Golden Hourglass!

Only one chapter to go before the end!

In the meantime, I will be participating in DeathPuss Week (see the details on this post): I will be posting one drabble per day for the event, from June 15th to June 21st. I hope you like them!

You know what? I'll do it too.

Expect one daily SFW Death in Boots drabble (exactly 100 words) for each prompt posted on my AO3 account when the event starts.

Happy Pride Month, everybody!

What are you going to do for pride month?

Cover art for my fanfiction The Golden Hourglass!

It was about time I drew Puss and Death together.

Just posted The Golden Hourglass' eighth chapter!

Please mind the added tags, dear readers, this one is a bit darker. Nothing dark enough to raise the rating above T, I don't think, but I made the most potentially triggering scenes skippable just in case.

Take care!

Chapter 7 is out!

Aaand the chapter count went up again because I had to cut a chapter in two due to an upcoming tone shift, oops. Let's see if I can stick to a decimal.

I hope you like the chapter!

Chapter 6 of The Golden Hourglass is here at last!

And yes, the chapter count went up again, hopefully for the last time; nine is a good number for this story. (And Puss in Boots: The Last Wish fanfiction in general.)

Enjoy!

A ship edit I did :3 ❤️

(Death and puss are laying close next to each other for a date and puss is spilling some stupid yet silly thoughts that he is having to death)

Kinger ignores:….

Caine:uhhhh kinger….?

(Literally only 10 seconds later)

Caine on kingers head balling his eyes out:PLZZZZZ ANSWER MEEEEE 😭😭😭😭

Kinger realizes he f**ked up and hugs him tightly

Puss being annoying to death to get his attention:

Puss:heyyyyyy deathhhh

Death:what mi amor..

Puss:Whyyyy are you so tallll

Death:are you drunk or something…?

Puss:maybe

That it for now 👁️👁️

NEW AU YALL OK SO PUSS AND DEATH BUT HUMAN AND KIDS MWHAHAHAHAHHAH

Yes chef kiss a flustered wolf that kills people and a confident cat robber 👁️👁️💅❤️

Why? Cuz I said so😃

Okay ima address this… so while I was in the mental hospital I was doing a brain rot of headcannons(sorry if I spelled it wrong) for death x puss that everyone would like and probably use so here is a few I came up with :3

1.

When death is done with work and is having a bad day, he would teleport(look idk 🤷‍♀️) to puss and drag him to the house just too cuddle but hey I can’t blame him 💅

2.

So when puss is tired/cold or just wants to annoy death he climbs into deaths cloak and climb to his neck then hugs it which leaves death either flustered or confused/careful

3.

After death and puss has an argument, death gets close to puss and nibbles on his ear or kisses his cheek multiple times as apologizing

4.

Death gets jealous when a boy or girl is getting flirty with puss, then he probably lures them to die or just tries to scare them away

5.

Puss likes to borrow(ahem…steals..) his lovely partner’s sickles

6.

Puss like to wear death’s cloak when he has it off even though it’s wayyy to big for him but death like to see puss squirm to walk when he actually gets it on

.

.

.

Puss: death mi amor would you still love me if I was a worm?

Death: …

Puss: …

Death:darling serious question what the actual f*** is in the milk you drink and the answer that I guess yeah

Puss: thanks lobo🩷

Puss:lobo lobo lobo lobo lobo lobo lobo lobo-

Death: Jesus what gato!

Puss:i love you ❤️

Death sighs: I love you too ❤️…
