Here at Beige University we’re making dorm arrangements for next year. I’m still going to room with Rachel, and Fenton will continue to share his ecosystem with Bob Shrike.
Rachel and Bob were relieved, as they each semi-expected Fenton and I to start living together due to our engagement. The answer is not yet; for all of my family’s uniqueness we’re traditional in that regard.
Also, Fenton and Bob have a perfect set-up since one is nocturnal and the other isn’t. For all practical purposes they each have a private room.
Rachel, meanwhile, has become the little sister I never had. (...Until Coney gets older, of course!) I grew up as an only child, in a rabbit culture that put a premium on the traits of cuddliness and fluffiness...adjectives that would never apply to me. I did wish for siblings and I eventually got them. I don’t regret that wish, even when the answer comes in the form of Rudy.
