I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took a cat to the knee.

The one time my cat did that, it caused such a strong reflex action, it launched him across the room.

He learned his lesson

the first time he did it, i was horrified but i realized that it looks much worse than it actually feels lol

he found me outside two weeks ago and now he lives in my house. he has already become a sweet snuggleboi and no longer bites my kneecap (he did this constantly the first several days after i brought him inside)

He had to teach you who now owns the house! Hims!

Lol one of my cats will do that if he's not getting enough attention, just a little nibble on the knee, not quite like I'm this picture though, and usually while we're standing or sitting.
