…Jeff laughed, a deep, genuine laugh that echoed the joy he felt. “We’re not amateurs, Walter. We’re a team.” Walter grunted, but it was a contented sound. “Yeah. I suppose we are.” He paused, then added, “Just don’t get any ideas about putting me in a TikTok dance video, alright? I draw the line at that.” Jeff grinned. “Wouldn’t dream of it, old man. Wouldn’t dream of it.” He looked at his puppets, his friends, his collaborators, and knew that this tour, this unexpected journey of creative rebellion, was just the beginning. They had found their collective voice, and it was louder, funnier, and more alive than ever before.
