In reply for a Tumblr post of xserpx who wrote that Murphy would love Zootopia and would like to dress up as Judy for Halloween, but then has second thoughts about it, because a bunny costume for Harry's birthday...?
"Not a word, Dresden. Yes, this is a bunny tail. And yes, these are bunny ears. And yes, this bunny still can kick your arse."
"…"
"Wait, is this a fox tail?"
"…"
"Oh, for sanity's sake… All right, hereby you are allowed to speak. Happy?"
"Beyond expectations. Actually I was going to come to the party and be meaningfully smug while following you all evening, but it looks almost like you planned the same. And I'm pretty sure kicking arses is forbidden at the Carpenters. You like my tail?"
"…You know, you can already drop the 'meaningfully smug' part. And somehow a tail is less weird on you than this tie."
"Aw, Murph, won't you even have a nice word for my popsicle?"
"It's… noticeable. And dripping."
"Yikes, sorry. It's tricky to keep it simultaneously pink and frozen, even with the staff for the stick."
"Not to give you ideas, but I'm surprised you didn't try to put fennec ears on Mouse…"
"I did. He refused to cooperate at the velvet trunk."
"I'm glad to hear he has some limits of allegiance after all."
