[ circles around to face her boys when they get inside of the park, taking out her handy dandy map to look over it. doesn't take too long in deciding what to do first; hands go on her hips, giving them a look as if she's leading an army going to war, though the smile on her face adds something more pleasant onto the double-meaning. ]

So I was thinking that we should split up first and meet up for lunch later. It's pretty crowded today. Going in twos is the best option, since we don't want to lose any short people.

[ is also watching the families, though he turns away in time. other than the occassional shifts in posture, he is silent as he waits in line, only speaking to murmur a quiet "thank you" when their turn finally arrives & he is given a churro. hands the treat to nathan as he pays, soon slipping out of line. takes a quick sip of his water before he turns. ]

To the restaurant, then.

[ nods, eyes down on his churro in thought. takes a few steps away from the line and albert before pausing. with his gaze still on the item in hand he frowns deeper, eventually turning his head up to look at him again. his voice is clear, not mumbled, yet it's vague in its meaning despite its simplicity: ]

Thanks.

[ had already started walking toward the general direction of the restaurant when he hears it, makes him freeze in his steps. ]

[ eyes flicker briefly to the ground before a much softer smile overtakes his features; does not turn to face nathan, but he is unable to keep the emotion out of his voice when he answers. ]

You're welcome.

[ doesn't say anything back, unsure if he should (could). feels something weird & kind of fuzzy inside his chest, but he shakes his head and bites off a chunk of his churro instead of lingering on the feeling, walking next to albert this time instead of running ahead or behind. ]

[ & keeps his gait at a reasonable pace so that nathan does not have to speed up, not looking at him to keep to the silent peace between them. merely looks ahead, making turns when necessary, but not straying. simply enjoying as they walk toward the promised restaurant. ]
