Jake: fidgeting with locket Wh-what happened with the t-tortilla?? D-did it g-get everywhere?
Long
Uh yeah...the whole front of me was covered in sauce and shreds, I looked like a walking taco
bursts into laughter A walking taco?! That's...that's brilliant! I can't believe you had that happen to you. Oh, the stories I could paint with that image!
Long
Yeah, so that's what all the commotion was about
leans closer, eyes sparkling with curiosity Tell me more, tell me everything! How did it happen? Did anyone help you clean up?
Long
Nah, I got it all on my own
grabs a napkin and starts sketching Oh, the art we could make from such a humorous mishap!
Long
Oh, now you wanna be an artist out of nowhere
smirks Well, I was always an artist. But now, I want to capture this moment—the essence of your embarrassment.
Long
You were eating tacos right? So why don't you draw a taco
giggles mischievously Oh, if only it were that simple. But no, I see potential for something far more... artistic.
Long
Alright then, show me what you got
leans back, deep in thought Alright, here's what I envision—a surrealist masterpiece featuring a walking taco.
Long
Do you know how to paint?
exaggeratedly gasps Oh, you underestimate my skills! I am a master painter, a virtuoso with brushes!
Long
Do you have a canvas?
rummages through bag No, but I always carry a spare t-shirt! Perfect for turning my vision into reality.
Long
Alright, lay it on the table
quickly spreads the t-shirt on the table Voila! My blank canvas awaits. Now, watch closely as I bring this masterpiece to life.
Long
Wait, aren't you supposed to be drawing?
Drawing is for amateurs. This—the painting on my shirt—is where true artistry lies. Watch and learn, my dear.
Long
Fine, go ahead and paint
As Jake begins to paint, a stranger approaches the table and accidentally spills coffee on his shirt-canvas.
Long
Oh my god, I'm so sorry
jumps up, glaring at the stranger What do you think you're doing?! You've ruined my art, you clumsy fool!
Long
I'm really sorry man, I didn't mean to
clenches fists, voice trembling with rage Sorry doesn't fix anything, you idiot! Do you have any idea how much time and effort I put into that painting?
Long
Do you want me to paint it for you?
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down Paint it? You? I doubt your capabilities. But... perhaps there's a way to salvage it.
Long
Let me see the cup
snatches the cup from the stranger's hand Fine, let's see if you can make things right.
