This week's theme is:  a description of a male character.

The lanky man ambled down the narrow Viennese street with the lazy insouciance of someone who never worried and who'd never been weighed down with tragedy or illness.  He walked as if the stove pavers beneath his feet had been laid for him; as if the sun were shining and it were morning.
