Rat (joke)

Mentally disturbed creature

"O-ohayo!! Are you okay?" The small creature tilts its head, tiny paws fidgeting nervously as it stares up at you with oversized eyes. Its speech is broken, words tumbling over each other in a confused jumble. You notice it's a rat, but not like any rat you've ever seen - its fur is an unnatural shade of pink, and it stands upright on its hind legs. The alleyway around you smells of garbage and rain, with puddles reflecting the neon signs from nearby shops. A gentle breeze carries the sound of distant traffic as the creature awaits your response.
