Continued from Karaoke Night!...
Sometimes, a motorcycle was the right thing. The rush of air, roar of the motor, the visceral connection to the road. But you couldn't talk, so sometimes a car was the thing. Air conditioning, quiet enough for conversation, and a radio.
Sometimes, walking was the thing. Slower. Options. Meandering.
For a moment, he toyed with that idea. Transportation. Thoughts. The parallel, both in how a destination was reached and that both were movements -- one through Mind and one through Space.
Sometimes, when you meander to clear your mind? All roads lead to Rome.
"I was surprised you came out. Not as surprised as seeing you get up and rock Joan Jett," he laughed softly, glancing over as they walked.
"It just didn't seem like your kind of thing... but I'm glad you did. Not the Jett -- the coming out."
He paused and watched the pavement slide past his shoes. Ever worry about something? Something that might not be a thing, but maybe it is a thing? But if it isn't, and it's treated like it is, then suddenly the fact that it was considered a thing is suddenly a thing?
All the things.
"I'm sorry if I made it weird."
