Remy was completely still for a few long moments, a bewildered expression frozen on his face. He'd thought his brief encounter at the city gates was weird... But this was positively ludicrous! There was something really strange going on in this city... And Remy was now even more certain that he was nowhere near Paris anymore. The cat person pretty much confirmed it. There was nothing in Paris like that... Heck, there was nothing on EARTH like that, and that brought up questions even more bizarre. He wasn't sure he was even ready for the answers those questions might give.

At least he seemed to be safe, for the moment. He wasn't about to go running up to someone who had just tried to strangle him to death, but she certainly looked sorry to have attacked him and that was a good sign. "Good, you better be sorry," he grumbled. "Just because I'm a rat doesn't mean I'm some stupid little... VERMIN that you can just stomp on out of sheer spite! I've got feelings too! And I like being alive as much as the next guy... How would you like it if someone came along and crushed you to death for no reason at all?"

Okay, so he wasn't exactly offering his paw in reconciliation. But he'd been attacked quite a few times by people that had wanted him dead simply because of his species, and this was the first time he'd been able to protest it in a way someone could understand. He felt like venting his frustration a bit.
