Glenn, being one of the bigger bunnies around, has little trouble getting through the crowd. You find it easiest to walk in his wake. You almost walk into him when he slows down to talk with someone. He speeds back up and suddenly turns into an alleyway. The slowdown has stuck you behind several bunnnies and you are afraid you'll lose him. So, you turn sideways and try to wiggle your way through the crowd. Nearly falling into the alleyway, you are relieved to see that Glenn has waited for you.
"Alright, hop on" he sighs and lowers a shoulder. Instead of sitting on his shoulder, you sling a leg over so that you are straddling his neck with his ears going over your legs. When he stands up, you can feel his ears pushing down on your legs.
"How strong are those things?"
"What things?"
"Your ears. I mean, are they strong enough to use as another pair of arms or anything?"
"They're almost as strong as my real arms. I just never use them because they're so much harder to control. Just imagine moving your arms if they had no bones." Not being too fond of the idea, you drop the subject.
Finally, after taking several more shortcuts through the swarming crowd, you reach a calm bubble surrounding a dilapidated shack. It is questionable if the sign ever was legible, although it certainly is not currently. An angry crow perches on the sign, screaming at you in the only voice it can. The weight of the shack had slouched against another, sturdier building, and you are cautious to enter the building in the first place.
"Just make sure you don't affend him. He's a scary looking guy, that's for sure, but he is the chief's brother. In fact, the chief is usually the only one who takes him seriously. When in doubt, just agree with him."
"Alright," you choke out, although the lump in your throat brings it down to a whisper.
