[Turns out one of the older children does have a question. He's clumped with two of his friends, all of whom look slightly rebellious and the picture of 'suffering' at having to stay in a group]
But Mr. Izumo...this is SO SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW. Can't we all take the shortcut?
[Being that this was indeed a group hanging back, Izumo was the closest to be asked of the two grown-ups. That and he looked slightly less official.
As it was, the boy wasn't bothering to hide his complaint or keep his volume down. One of the younger kids up front looked nervous, and stammered out a quiet question to Trunks]
Bb-but some of the shortcuts go down an alley, and there's a loud dog that likes to bark at me whenever I go there and it's scary!
[Trunks let his gaze meet Izumo's to silently ask Do you want to handle this, or shall I? ]
