Wolf Boy, otherwise known as Rolfo the Dog Faced Boy, was now covered it mostly gray hair.

Rolfo greeted Marcus, the Amazing Tattooed Man with a handshake outside of Sam and Ruby’s house.

“Wolf Boy, I haven’t seen you in years, I guess I should call you Wolfman now eh?,” The Tattooed Man laughed.

“Ha, ha, “Said Rolfo, ” Seems the ship on your bicep is sinking a little there buddy,” Rolfo retorted.

“Time it marches on. Sad about Giggles passing wasn’t it? Cirrhosis I heard. Man he was one funny clown,” the Tattooed Man said.

“He sure was a mean drunk,” Rolfo said.

“Hey guys, how have you been?,” Gustav the sword swallower said in a raspy voice.

They embraced and went inside to greet the rest of their old circus friends, and lament the loss of Giggles and a life long past that would never come again.

    Really funny continuation of the story here. I’m torn between the sagging tattoo and the raspy voice on the sword swallower for my favorite lines.
