[OOC: Another PSL AU pet person tale. Continuation of this thread!]
~
Mu lived in the wild once. He tried to remember what his original homeland was like. There are forests and mountains, and he travels with his nomadic herd as they migrate when the seasons changes. That was a month ago when he was captured by humans, shipped overseas in a cage and on a boat, then in a strange stable with the other animals where he was kept for a month, until he was moved again on a truck with the others, and he landed in another strange land, a village to be sold as an exotic pet for a quick cash in an auction.
Now he has no means in returning back home, back to the wild where he originally came from. As he has no idea how to travel there or the name of his homeland is. The human language, he's doesn't know their words and what they mean. He was a wild and feral sheep.
He never lives with humans before. Leanne is his first owner. When they first met, he was a very sickly sheep, traumatized from being captured from the wild and to be sold like a common household pet. She took care of him, nursed him back to health, and once he fit enough to walk around her home, it's the taming of his wildness and feral mind that comes next.
The pet and cuddles, and the kisses she gave him, during her breaks helped him withdraw from his shell and him trusting her as a human. He even learns to speak his name and her name.
"Mu...my name is Mu." He said as he cuddles with her on the couch. "Mu helps Leanne...? Teach? Learn?" New words he's learning. "Leanne is good."

This whole night, it was becoming torture to her as he no longer had the joy or the happiness at learning. It was as if he died and just a shell remained. "Yes..... You are done...." It was half-hearted and not with the usual energy she praised him.
She looked over his work and frowned even more. No, she can't count on him now, not while he was like this. He was now back to being a patient instead of a caregiver. That final look was the last straw to prove this train of thought.
A hand goes to shyly reach over in order to pet his head but then stops before she could touch him and she withdrew her hand, stuffing it into a pocket before forcing a smile on her face. "Yes, good. You did a good job Mu." It was a lie but, he needed to hear the positivity.
"Why don't you head up for bed and I can finish up here." All smiles right now. "And you don't have to worry about helping me tomorrow as well. You have worked hard and deserve some rest. I will be find so don't worry about me."
She doesn't really wait for a response as she turns back around to start working on finishing the preparations. It was going to be a long night ahead of her but she needs it in order to focus her mind away from the quite of triggering him.
no subject
The pets are comforting, that the tension from before, he relaxed into it. He's...not bad. Just not an efficient worker as Leanne hoped for him to be. "Okay." At that, he looks relieved from the lesson and with a nod. "I go to bed." He smiles, though a weak one as from the dark place in his mind, he bounced back to the light, he is so tired from the guilt that he can't verbally explain.
"Rest...rest is good. I go rest." At that, the sheep wanted the bed to his bedroom, and turning on the light, and curled up on it beneath the blanket to warm, to feel safe and realize he has an owner who loves and cares for him, and eventually wait for her to finish work, hoping she goes to look for him and learns she isn't punishing him for being bad.
no subject
That was a rather weak smile and the relief on his face cannot be mistaken. She was hoping for an effective worker, especially for all the help he has given her. It was too soon and even with such small tasks, it was too soon. "Yes, to bed and rest. Don't worry about me or the clinic for tomorrow or the upcoming weeks. Just focus on resting."
It will take her a long time and even into the wee hours of the morning before she was finally done with all her prepping. She felt so tired and exhausted that she almost forgotten to check up on Mu, almost as once she headed back up the stairs, she idly checks into his room. She won't approach him on his bed, that was his one spot of absolute safety and she won't intrude on it. Once she made sure he was fine, she heads to her own room and collapses on the bed, not bothering to change out of her clothes as she catches whatever sleep she can get.
no subject
Mu woke up in the middle of the night in the darkness of the morning from a nightmare that made him woke up in sweats. How long he slept? Then he remembered he was useless and a burden to the nurse that earlier morning.
When he woke up, he hallucinated, thinking and seeing that his herd is here, surrounding him...only realized he's sleeping alone...on a bed...and remembered he lives with a nurse, his owner now. No herd present. He blinked, he could have swear he heard them and he was surrounded by them. No, not here. They're far away, and maybe the herd think of him as dead. Not real.
He felt lonely and cold. Part of him felt completely separated and cut off. Sheep are natural herd animals. He is a lone sheep. Yet, his mind is being pushed to the brink when the neighborhood herd rejected him. So the sheep don't want him and he's no longer sheep. He reached up to touch the brand on his horn, the brand of slavery that he is now a companion pet. The testament that the nightmares of that dark place where he was taken are real. That confirmed he is no longer sheep. Then what is he?
He got up, leaves his bedroom, and went looking for the nurse, only to find her sleeping in her bedroom. This woman, he belongs to her now, in body and soul. She will protect him, so perhaps he won't have nightmares of the dark place anymore, of the torture and torment. Protect him from going back.
He snuck into her bed to huddle close to her like they used to the nights before and for Mu, that's the time he felt most safe, by sleeping beside her on the bed. He may not have wool anymore, but his wool will grow back by the winter season. Keeping his body close to her bed, to keep her warm, her scent comforting and familiar, that he managed to go back to sleep right next to her.
no subject
Sleep was a precious precious thing and with the guilt she was feeling, sleep was harder to come by. She eventually cried herself to sleep as she realized just how much she relied on Mu for simple things like this. Her own dreams were fitful and she wasn't getting a restful night. That is, until she could feel someone or something joining her on her face and goes to huddle next to her.
What greeted her when her alarm went off was a sight that she didn't expect to see. Him, sleeping next to her. Was last night just a bad dream? She goes to shake her head and allowed herself a moment to watch his sleeping form. She has to get out of bed and soon but she doesn't want to leave. Especially since she just wants to bask in this moment for a longer period of time.
no subject
Mu wakes up, not from an easy sleep as well. "Leanne..." She's not a bad human. Not at all. It's not her fault. She didn't understand. He wanted to speak. He wanted...he wanted to be close to her. She is all he has. He needs light and warmth, and this place she owns, and her clinic...while healing and recovery maybe far off, and takes time, being here and being cared for her is the biggest step toward that road.
All the guilt. He wanted to tell her. His story. Though the memories are disconnected and fragmented. He wanted to speak, but he can't...
"Leanne...I'm sorry." He said again, and he reached out, tugging at her sleeve wanting to hold her and hug her, make her understand that it's all a misunderstanding. "Don't go. Stay...it hurts...."
Tears began to flow, beginning to cry, a tearful bleat, as there's a hard lump in his throat, pain in his body pretty much everything. "It hurts if you go...I want to stay. They hurt me...before I met you. Touch me and kick me and punch me to make me a pet. You promise to protect me but then you sound like them, talk like them, so it hurts." It was hard, hard to confess the memories of that dark place, cold, hopeless, lonely place he once at.
no subject
She frowns at the sight of his tears, it.... it was heart-breaking. She quickly moves back and goes to wrap her arms around him, reaching up to start petting his hair and horns. She just goes to hold him tighter as he talks though when he mentioned that she sounded like them, she stops petting and her eyes widen briefly.
"Mu....." Were the one who tormented him Irish? If so, how fearful of her did he become everytime her accent slipped out.
"I.. I am sorry... I am so sorry." She catches herself before her accent slipped out again. Perhaps... She should rehome him. Especially if she scares him so when her accent comes out. "I love you, I will work harder so I won't remind you of them. You are a good boy so you have nothing to apologize for.... Shhhhhhh, it's okay."
no subject
He sobbed and sniffed, releasing the pain as some awful memories surfaced and he started to remember. Of the abuse and torture, he endured there, as there are times the handler singled him out or singled the others out within the herd and if he doesn't cooperate, they would beat him.
"I am...I am happy. That you choose me and saved me." He said, sniffling with the bleats, ears drooped as she wrapped her arms around him, petting him, comforting him. "I thought nobody wants me. A broken sheep." He said. "I don't want to go back at that barn. They would milk the males and collect the milk to make females pregnant because I can't make the females like me. They want to breed us. I didn't like it, didn't like it at all, and when I can't do it, they do that at least once a month. To milk me."
What Mu is describing is what breeders typically do for artificial semination, though through his tears, the abuse is physical and those are cruel, mean breeders.
He winced and feels shamed as he started to feel small, especially as he physically goes inward toward himself. He didn't want to rehome, as that's a bad idea, and he would feel more unwanted. It wasn't her accent that scared him, as he isn't afraid when her accent slipped, but its when she called him a juicy pet...and the meaning was lost as he's a simple sheep.
"So when I can't milk or juice, I can't...I just can't...make it..." All the sad sheepy eyes and ears dropping. "They would beat me if I can't. There's one week that I can't...and they..." Sniff, more tears, sobbing. "They branded me because I'm bad."
no subject
"Shhhh, you will never go back to that place. No one will touch you or hurt you ever again. You are free here." It made her happy that he was happy that she picked him. But what if she scared him again, shes not sure if she could live with herself.
She won't describe that is typical breeding methods but... They did it in a more cruel method.
"What made you think I care if you can milk or juice? No, you are not bad. You were never a bad sheep. Those were bad men. Never believe their words. Believe me when I say that you are a good sheep. You were always a good sheep."
She reaches up and pets him. "My cute and handsome ram." She believes she knows what triggered it. "My home... My accent... I was calling you cute in the words of my home. I was saying how could I be so blessed to have such a cute pet as you."
She sighs and moves to kiss his brand. "And I didnt save you... You saved me. You were the one who rescued me." She then shakes her head. "Still... Dont worry about helping me during this time. You need to rest and recover. I just wont be able to cook or spend a lot of time with you. Just let me know when you are hungry and I can order you some food."
no subject
"Not bad...I'm good. Good sheep." No, she doesn't care, and that's good. At that, he blushed, and he finally feels safe and she's telling the truth. He was mishandled and his sheep mind doesn't understand. There are cruel people who mishandled animals. For now, he feels lucky and happy that Leanne is his owner.
"So whatever you say means cute? I'm cute, handsome, and good?" He said, his eyes, not wet anymore, but finally understands. Tail wags. "Cute is good." All the good pets.
"I don't know...but okay. I will rest, but I will try to help." Now his owners understand, he feels lighter. "You have to go back to work? I think I can help. I want to help."
no subject
She giggles at the sight of his blush and nods her head. "Yes, you are a good sheep." Those who mishandled the animals... She should reach out to her contacts to see if they can find out about them.
"Yes, it meant that you are cute. You are such a cute and handsome ram. If I was an ewe I would pick you anyway over any other ram."
Now it was time to get to work. "I have to get ready, the first wave of sheep and their owners will be coming at any moment. Rest and only help if you feel like it.'
no subject
"Good sheep...cute." He said. He realized after his venting and outbursts, he was burdening her time, and she needs to open up the clinic to start the day soon and go to work.
If she was a ewe... he'll have to think about it. As he still didn't see her that way, she is his human. For now, he dried up his tears with tissues. He didn't feel handsome, not after he revealed he was broken and he was dirty when she first met him, and a part of him felt that way in the inside even though the trauma happened nearly a year ago.
With a nod, he said, "Okay...have a good day." and lets Leanne start the day, tending to her duties.
- - - - -
Throughout the day, he went back to his old habits of being the usual shy sheep. Sometimes, he was watching, observing, and peering around the corner. Mu felt a lot lighter and maneuvering freely in his clothes now that he was sheered and woolless. When he's confident toward a task, he helps, wanting to be helpful to Leanne and when he isn't, he flees to the back of the shop to keep himself out of sight, seeing the other sheep, fearing they would recognize him from the weeks before.
Most of the sheep that came to the clinic are docile and well-behaved and they are dressed in their best today. They spoke and chit-chat of being well and healthy, and even the ewes spoke of bearing lambs soon and spoke of their handsome ram on their farm since it's close to mating season.
Their owners brought them to the clinic to help them get ready for the sheep festival. As there's a sheep festival within the village already started, with the vendors of sheep-related goods are on sale near the square.
After Leanne closed the clinic for the evening, Mu was dressed in his best, getting ready to accompany her to the festival.
"...I would like to go. I don't mind going. Maybe there's something good to eat...?"
no subject
"I will... Remember to focus on resting." She goes to kiss him again. She didnt see him as a potential mate.
--------
The day was crazy and ever so busy. She made sure that all the cuts and gashes were cleaned and bandaged, as well as making sure those don't show.
The ewes talking of their handsome ram to mate with made her feel a little sad about Mu as they wont ever see him as a potential mate. The rams annoyed her a little but they were just being normal rams.
She was exhusted as she worked all day without any breaks. Surviving it purly on coffee. She hardly participated as she usually slept and then hear all about the one sheep who was deemed a champion.
She blinks a little at the sight of Mu so dressed up handsomely. "Sure... We can go. They will have plenty of food for you."
She moves to pet his horns. "They also have a contest that proclaims a champion sheep. A champion's sheeps wool becomes prime and if it is a ram, he becomes a prime stud. I am pretty sure you could win if you join it."
no subject
Mu show uncertainty, and he meekly shook his head. Contest means fighting, and fighting means he'll get hurt, and if he lose, that he'll get humiliated at his ramhood, and the winning male is going to brag about it for weeks, and all the females will believe him.
With sad eyes and a sad bleat, softly, "Leanne, I don't wish to fight. I want to spend time with you." Being a stud means having females interested in him, and his wool was gone, and he doesn't want the attention.
"Leanne, please? Just me and you?"
no subject
She now couldnt help but to blush a little as he takes her hand. "I look dreadful compared to you." But then she reaches over to place her hand under his chin in order to guide it into a proud position. "There... Hold your head up high. Especially for tonight Mu. You are looking rather handsome and tonight... It is your night."
And she couldnt help but to blush even more. "I am honored that you wish to spend this night with me. Just the two of us."
no subject
At that, even with a downcast look, Mu looked up, blushed, and he tried. Oh he tried. So many heavy thoughts and emotions. He swallowed hard. "I'll try..." As he's shy and nervous in public.
Holding her hand, he follows her, like a good sheep, and go wherever Leanne wished to go.
It was a calm night, with the full moon hung in a starry sky with a string of lights, lighting up the vendors on the streets and the street lamps bright. Every kiosk sells yarn, quilts, blankets, milk, figurines, and other goods for customers to take home.
All sheep products to celebrate the festival. People are out, walking with their sheep pet person on hand, and some sheep person huddle together like a herd, watching the people passing them by, and people and children laughing as a walk through the alleyways and streets of the village.
So far, no troubles and Mu eaten whatever food is sold in the vendors, and having a good time, and making sure Leanne has eaten something.
There's music near the square and people and their pet people are dancing to the music in pairs or as a group. Mu turned to Leanne, "Leanne, do you want to dance with me?"
no subject
She leans up to kiss his cheek in encouragement. "That is all I can ask of you, is to try your best. Don't be ashamed if you have reached your limit, be proud of how far and how long you did." She knows just how shy he is and will be here to be his rock and source of strength if needed.
It was quite the fun night and they took turns leading the other from one spot to another, never letting go of each other's hand. This night, it was one of the most special nights she ever experienced.
She ate whatever Mu brought her to eat, but is making sure he eats as well. This night of happiness, it was something he deserves after his rough life. There was nothing that could possibly spoil this night.
There was music in the air to which Leanne blinks as Mu turned to her and... Yup, her blush is back and it's a little deeper. "Yes... Yes I would but only if you don't mind dancing with someone as myself."
no subject
Is he proud? Not, not yet, but he survived. That's important. But he is content and comfortable, and he felt safe with her. "Leanne, I felt bad." He said. "When you spoke that way to me, it's...there's nothing wrong with your voice. I just started to remember...something that happened not too long ago." Though the buried memories surfaced, released and let go, something in his mind started to connect. Right now, he felt all the guilt in wanting to make her happy, to make her accept him as the pet. "And you are right." What happened to him was terrible, and maybe will take him a long time to get pass that.
"I don't mind at all. Please dance with me." He said, and joining hand in hand, they joined the other couples in the square, dancing to the various music being played. "Leanne, you're special and always helpful to others." He sensed Leanne is tired and exhausted from dealing with him, dealing with customers, so he hoped to focus on having fun with his Master.
"I never want to part from you, Leanne. I wanted to be with you always. Because you always try your best and you love me." When the song is over, sensing her need, he wrapped his arms in a hug, burying himself on her hair. "I love you. I want to deserve you."
no subject
She blinks as he speaks again and frowns a little. "You... You shouldn't have felt bad.... Especially for that." She goes to try and comfort him but then when he mentions she was right, she couldn't help but to tilt her head. "Right? Right about what, Mu?"
Her blush deepens at his later words and how easily he pulled her in for more dancing. This was almost a new side to him and him starting to look quite manly as well. Despite how tired and exhausted she was, she.... She was truly having the time of her life right now.
The last thing she was expecting was for him to hug and bury himself in her hair, whispering those words. "I never want to part from you as well, Mu. You already deserve me, it is me who should try and work on deserving you."
no subject
When the music ended and seeing how tired she is. "Do I truly deserve you? Really? I want to deserve you." Noticing how late it's becoming. "Would you like to go home?" He has to make up to her, for being a pain to her up until now. Maybe a hot shower and curling up the bed and cuddle each other. Rest, she needed it. Tugging her along. "Let's go home." So he can try to pamper her.
no subject
She smiles up at him warmly and lovingly. "Yes, you do. You deserve everything good in life. You do truly deserve me, my precious ram." At the mentioning of going home, she goes to slowly nod her head. "Yes... I would like to go home but only if you are ready. This night is for you, Mu."
At the suggestion of going home, she slowly nods her head and smiles up at him. "Yes, lets go home then." A brief thought. "But only after you have done everything you wanted to do during the festival."
no subject
"Speak like that...the truth. I need you to say that." He said. For now, this night is for her also. "Then let's go home." As they went home. "I enjoyed the dance tonight. Tomorrow, let's do that again."
They went home, settled in for the night, and after he showered and get dressed in his cute pajamas that she bought for him to join her in her bedroom to cuddle up with her as they used to, once she settled in herself.
Only he sat on the edge on her bed, looking at her with his green doe-like eyes. "Leeane, when you said you love me, do you love me..." Searching for the right words. "Like a female want a mate?"
no subject
She giggles and smiles brightly up at him. "Yes, I would love to dance with you again." But then a more gentle and warm smile. "Aye, I shall always speak the truth to you. I promise."
The walk home was pleasent and honestly, she felt almost like she was on cloud 9. Who would have thought that something as simple as going to a festival with someone would be so fun?
Once they arrived home back at the clinic, she leaned up to give him a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you Mu... For a wonderful time."
Now it was time to go through the nightly routine of showering and getting ready for bed. Oh sweet heavenly bed! She could not wait to go to sleep. She blinks as he seems to go out of the routine and sits on the edge of the bed....
..... Her cheeks flared up at his question and she looks away briefly. Damnit! Why did she have to make that promise to him earlier? This would be the ideal situation for a lie. It took her a moment to look back at husband nods.
"Yes.... That is one way that I do love you, Mu. You are so handsome and beautiful as well as so kind and gentle that... That it is hard not to love you like that. But because I do love you like that, all I want is your happiness. It makes me so happy whenever I see you genuinely happy."
She starts to confess, moving to sit up and idly hugging her legs. "But even before I started to see you as a mate material, I wanted that for you. For you to be happy, from the very start that was all I wanted for you."
She doesnt look at him anymore and just studies her hands. She didn't want to tell him but perhaps, he should know. "I... I had a plan, a plan to get you back home. I out the chip in you and then once you were healthy, see if Williams could pinpoint where you were from and then have a contact of mine basically smuggled you back there and since you were chipped, should anyone try and take you again, I could claim that you were mine and I was giving you a vacation or something." She couldnt help but to tear up a little. "But then when he mentioned where your home was... I couldn't. I couldnt go through with my plan. I didnt want to be the cause of any harm or death to you so I selfishly kept quiet."
no subject
"It's okay Leanne. No, Leanne. I'm a pet now. I can't go back to the wild. I don't remember how to defend my own clan. Most likely a strong male took over and lead the clan by now." He sighs. "It's been nearly a year." He was beaten by a lot of males, both human and the local male rams. His multiple defeat means he's no longer strong enough to protect his clan, and he's not wanted anywhere. She can believe he's strong, but not as a sheep, but as her cherished pet. "You don't know my clan. When a male becomes an adult, he will take over. So if I try to come back, I have to challenge him for the right to lead the clan...and I can't." The fight is gone out of him.
Shaking his head, "Let's talk later because I don't want to go home. Not now..." He said, and then he locked eyes with her. "Reason I ask, because I wanted you...and nobody loves me like you." Being bold and deciding to brave it, he brushed his hand against her long locks of hair and on her arm, to see if she welcomes her touch, and leans forward to sniff her hair. "You smell very good right now..." He murmured a soft bleat.
It's now his turn to give kisses, a kiss on the cheek. "Leanne, I can't go back. I love you, and that's why." A kiss on the throat and a nuzzle on her skin. "I want to stay with you and I want kiss you, Leanne..."
no subject
"So... Even if you wanted to go back home, you couldn't.... My sweet ram, I am sorry for not bringing this up sooner to you." She loved him and felt a bond with him. His story still broke her heart a little as he was once a strong and powerful wild ram but now is broken to being a docile pet. He still has that strength in him but it is buried and hiding deep within him.
When he started to become bold and locked eyes with her, her cheeks turned a dark crimson red from blushing. He wanted... her? She doesn't shy away from his touch and she could feel her heart racing as he leans in to sniff her hair. "Mu...."
He... For how long has he wanted her? They were just master and pet not even up until earlier that day. He would have always protested her way to build his self confidence until that last time. Despite falling for him when he first started to chase away suitors, she always preyed that he never found out as she didn't want to look like the previous humans he dealt with.
A sharp gasp and a moan escapes her as he kisses her throat and she started to feel weak under his advances. Was she really that easy? "I... I love you too, Mu. Oi love yer so much it 'urts. Oi also want ter stay witcha an' kiss you." She keeps slipping in and out of her accent.
She goes to let herself lie down on the bed, displaying herself to him in order to invite him to her body.
