When she had calmed down enough to hear him, he said, “Rich is finding a towel.”
“Sure.”
“I keep telling you to take a step back before you fire.”
“I forgot.”
Rich walked up with a jug of water and a bath towel. “Don’t drink it, I think it’s rainwater.”
“Thanks,” Marcus said, and then gestured for Rich to clear off.
“Sorry I lost it.”
“S’okay. It’ll be my turn next.”
