Everyone and everything was beginning to set up and the festival was slowly but surely coming together. He was not surprised that the area was already bustling with activity. It kind of reminded him of his days on the university grounds. When events were happening, everyone was going out and about. When they weren’t, it sometimes reminded you of a ghost town. 

It was odd to see more stands this year compared to last year, a weird realization that the town was slowly getting bigger annually. The main thing he was looking forward to was seeing all of the carefree individuals who were going to enjoy today. Hearing a feminine voice in the distance that he could not place, she sounded like she was trying to help everyone with setup, and so on. Not really paying attention because he had known his location and stall type. 

Taking a few steps back as he began to rub the back of his neck, “[color=66946b]Aah should have forced one of the other officers to help meh out,[/color]'' Mumbling to himself before he got back to what he was doing. Unloading the trailer. 

Thomas didn’t realize that someone else was in the vicinity and hearing the voice caused him to jump slightly and the two fold out tables that he had in his hands landed on his one foot. “[color=66946b][i]Cracker snaps 'n pop rocks,[/i][/color]” Was the words he used instead of saying what he wanted to from the weight slamming down on his foot. 

With the items still on his foot since he couldn’t process or deal with that at this exact second, he had a friendly smile nonetheless, “[color=66946b]That's meh, the chief,[/color]” His voice cracked in a sense as he pulled his foot out from under the weight of the tables and completely ignored the fact that the tables fell on his foot in the first place as he walked over to the woman. “[color=66946b]Aah really appreciate the offer but aah reckon aah've this,[/color]” Glancing over his shoulder at the tables that fell on his foot only a moment before looking back at the woman and smiling slightly more awkwardly. Maybe a little embarrassment lingered in his expression. Definitely a little goofy looking. 

“[color=66946b]Aah don't reckon that aah know your name, miss?[/color]” A part of him was feeling dumb because he felt like he should know who she is. He thought her voice sounded familiar but not at the same time. Maybe he heard it on the radio or T.V. or just around town somewhere? Gosh. He couldn’t guess it if he tried.
