Dance and Be Merry

lying thoughtfully

Who: Julian and Jesse
Where: The parade
When: Afternoon

Julian was enjoying the parade through town. He hadn't got to go to the circus, but anyway, this was much more his thing, wandering along the street, occasionally stopping to sketch something or someone when the muse overtook him, but otherwise just enjoying the atmosphere. The parade itself seemed endless and endlessly colourful, full of jugglers and tumblers and all sorts of acts going by for seemingly ages with music and laughter, holding the locals in fascination.

His attention was drawn by one of the stalls set up at the side of the road, selling cotton candy and popcorn. And by the group of people dancing next to it. They made a pretty sight and the teenager stopped for a while to watch them.
