Re: Nish&Jen / Gabe&Eshan
Eshan barked a laugh, and Gabe shook his head.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to shove you into anything. It was only a joke," he carefully reassured one half of their companions. "Bob Ross has a lot to teach us, especially about the trees. I think he was a tree whisperer, in some respects."
"Maybe he was a bender, just of paint; the avatar in our world," Eshan commented, looking back over his shoulder as he was carefully pushing his way through another part of the crowd. Before he could continue in his particular vein of conversation. "Hey, I think I see the truck!" He pointed, which amounted to little more than through and over the heads of more of the crowd, but something like an umbrella was visible in the distance. Gabe motioned for Nish and Jen to stick close as they started to weave more purposefully through the crowd.
And then, a brief five minutes later, they were there, standing at the edge of a semi-long line of like-minded march goers who were all waiting for water bottles.
"Looks like it's cash only," Gabe commented, quickly taking up a spot in line. "We can always go for lunch, once we're done here?" He glanced at Eshan, who nodded, then back over to Nish and Jen. "Get something a little more substantial than sugar and water."
