Muskin! [He put the soup cap aside and stood up, a little shakily from being in the bundle and the cushion, but he steadied after a moment.]
People like me. We're like little mouse demons, without actually being mice? Same feet though. [And he picked one up, lacing his fingers between his toes and then stretching his leg out, balancing with a twitch of his tail.] It really helps for climbing and running!
[And he stood back normal.] And we make our livings in burrows and walls, knotholes, the little places big people like you don't look or don't care about, and we take the things you don't need anymore, or won't miss. We borrow, but only scraps, honest!
And of course, we have help from our small animal friends like the birds and the mice. The bird you saw before, he really helped me a lot. He helped me get somewhere in the first place, when I was old enough to leave my parents.
