Carter had heard great things about the new magician Marjan had hired. Turned out the new fellow had revived the petting zoo, too. That was mildly interesting, considering the original petting zoo had just been decimated by a rabid coyote. Of even greater interest, the petting zoo was set up on the midway, and the midway was Carter's bailiwick.
Time to show the new guy who was boss, Carter decided, and made his way over to the pen that held the animals, clearing a path through the crowd with judicious jabs with his cane. He leaned on the fence, watching as little kids chased after bunnies and ducklings and piglets.
Carter had to admit, the new set-up was looking a lot better than the syphilitic goat and depressed-looking miniature pony they'd had before. The full-grown lion, however, that had to go. Carter couldn't believe he hadn't gotten any complaints about it yet.
"What kind of parents are you people, anyway?" he groused to no one in particular as he lounged against the fence.
