<p>I squeak and skip a step to the side, tail bristling, before forcing myself to calmness. I bow to her.</p>
<p>She smiles, nodding her acknowledgement. &ldquo;What Right Have I, do you have a moment more to talk? I have a request for you before you head back.&rdquo; She lifts a plate heaped with some known favorite foods of mine. &ldquo;Plus, I brought you some to take back with you.&rdquo;</p>
<p>It takes a few seconds for the request and the offer to click into place for me, and I realize I have been blinking dumbly at her for that time. I smile hesitantly in turn and accept the food. &ldquo;I&hellip; ah, <em>tizkeh l&rsquo;mitzvos.</em>&rdquo; I murmur. &ldquo;What is it you wanted to ask?&rdquo;</p>
<p>She nods, gathers her thoughts, and then stands straighter to speak. &ldquo;I would like you to reach out to some clades, both within the congregation and within the clade, to get a better sense of our life a year later. I have a longer document written out about this to give you something in writing, but I wanted to get a sense of your feelings on the idea first.&rdquo;</p>
<p>My gaze drifts away, down to the plate of food in my paws, to the vegetables fresh and cooked, to the fried apple fritters and savory potato dumplings. I pick out a stick of celery to crunch on, knowing that something like that will give me more time to think. I do not chew prettily by some standards, but such was never the point, in my life. It comes with having a muzzle that borders on transgressively realistic. I chew noisily and, at times, quite messily. Let others cope.</p>
