Hector only needed to listen to the child that barked at him for all of two seconds before mentally writing him off and listening no longer. The last thing anyone needed right now was a preachy load of nonsense straight from a Japanese cartoon. He wanted answers, and he was going to get them once they escaped this danger. After some time, the rabbit lead them to a fitting hole for them to all crawl into. Or jump, as it were. Given everything that had occurred so far, Hector could care less about the absurdity of jumping into a rabbit hole to safety. Like the rest, he dived right on in, eager to reach safety and here some answers.

Despite the weird and wonderful environment they soon found themselves in, Hector was still squarely focused on getting an explanation. Fortunately for him, it appeared that some of the others were equally focused on the task. They quickly got down to brass tacks and interrogated the rabbit more effectively than he would have expected. While the horrifying visage that the rabbit undertook in reaction was certainly disturbing, Hector was still set on a singular purpose, and having already seen a man burn to death, he wasn't about to cower in fear of whatever this thing was. The rabbit's apparent indignation at being pressed only served to lower him further in Hector's esteem. It was as if he had no insight or appreciation for the circumstances of the people he had brought here. If he expected their co-operation, he was doing a piss poor job of soliciting it.

Nevertheless, the others continued to press for answers, and Hector wanted nothing more than to add his voice to the chorus. [b]"Aye, answers. Oh, but only if you can be [i]bothered[/i] with them, right? Wouldn't want to strain you or stress you out or anything."[/b] He mockingly mirrored the rabbit's earlier statement. If he insisted on getting shitty with them, then Hector was going to offer nothing but sourness in return.
