Morpho opted to let Pip do most of the talking, since she was far better at it than he was. He watched the fuzzy, glow-y, weird-eyed thing with rapt attention, intrigued by the first creature that he'd encountered that wasn't a mantis, like him and Pip. Although, now that he thought about it, he and Pip were only vaguely similar.
When Pip suggested he pick up Mossy, he nodded,
"Okay." and then, to the rabbit,
"Hold Still." He murmured, not wanting to hurt it with his big ol' danger claws as he tried to pick it up.
The rabbit hopped out of the way as his scary bug-claws approached, kicking him in on as it lept. Surprised and taken off guard, Morpho stumbled back a step as the rabbit quickly ran away.
"Oh no..." He said, quietly, watching as it ran away.
Picking up people must be rude He reasoned,
I should've asked first.
Morpho broke into an awkward run, trying to catch up to the rabbit so he could apologize. Mantises, however, were not made for moving very fast, but rather the opposite, so it wasn't exactly effective.
"Wait!" He called, but it either didn't hear him or was ignoring him on purpose.
"Spoken Words."
