"See?" Magnus looked at the squirrel. "So... go do that."
The squirrel huffed as much as a squirrel was capable of and then scurried away. She had good advice really.
Magnus was about to thank the woman when he looked down and saw the animal. Magnus couldn't decide if he was cute or if he was ugly. The big question was would non-Earth animals be able to talk to him or not.
"The squirrel just was excited someone with thumbs could hear him."
