420: the Revolutionary

What it's not about: It's not about money, or fame. It's not about making a name for yourself. It's not about being known or about being acknowledged.

What it's about: It's about joining the people who are doing something right, even if you aren't sure that they're going to accept you.

You're on the wrong side of the country, so it took a while. You had to get your life moved to where they are, and do it so smoothly nobody noticed. You had to pack everything carefully just in case. You're not rich, and you're not able to just drop everything and go flying off.

In New York you're impatient and want to go, go, go. That's not how they do things, though, and you want them to accept you into their fold. Assuming you can find them. You haunt the areas you think they might be in, accepting and ignoring the looks you get in certain parts of the city.

The armor sits at home, in boxes, waiting. You talk to it, sometimes, because there is no one else to talk to about all of your plans for it.

And you live your life. Get settled under your real name, the one that everyone knows, and learn the city. If, when, you find them you're going to be ready.
