Realizing that he would be leaving his home if he went with these people causes Toot some extreme anxiety. It was true he was banished by his people for being more curious. A curiosity they feared that some day would doom them all. In reality, Toot wasn't THAT much more curious than the average Jermlaine, he just happened to rely upon his wisdom and intelligence more than his primitive brethren. Toot uses Boo's fur to climb up to his saddle and then fastens himself in. Before he decided whether to stay or leave, Toot needed a question answered. He casually guides Boo to move away from the party, pretending to be investigating something that's caught his attention. Toot then readies to spur Boo to get away from the area.
"Me have something to say." Toot waits until he has their attention before continuing. "Me not have much here in this world but it be familiar to Boo and Toot. We's not have traveling companions before that we's can tolerate. We's not even have acquaintances. We's likes having protection from greater numbers but we's not sure if you's knew truth if you do what all Big People do to my kind. So before we's go, then you's find out truth and we's gets stranded on other world, we's need to shows you something."
Toot pauses a moment to gather all of his courage. He pees himself. Then he removes his Hat of Disguise. The gnome facade vanishes to reveal a tiny, dirty, little, rat-like humanoid. His grey skin has knobby bumps and wirey hair poking out from here and there. His face has a grumpy little nose and two beady rat-like eyes that flash red when the light catches them at certain angles.
"This really me..."
Boo growls.
