"He scrambled up to Helen and asked, 'What are you doing?'"

"He kick-flipped up to Helen and asked, 'What are you doing?'"

[edit] electric-slid! Pirouetted! Somersaulted!





Maneuvered, marched, slid over to, snuck up on/to, rolled on up to, ambled, thread his way through the crowd to, slithered, slunk. Pimp walked. Danced over to. Hopped over to. Sprinted! Jogged! Charged!

He rolled away on his heelys.

Sashay…

Scooted!

Crunched.

Glomped. Oozed.

He vermiculated obliquely toward Helen, and from a yet comfortable distance mumbled a barely audible request for permission to ask how she's doing.

Me too

Let's not forget "sashayed" and "marched"

I love sashayed. It's always accompanied with a mental image of a person clad in some silk, floor length robe who walks a slightly sidewards, the fabric whispering. I have no idea where that image came from, but it's always there.

"slunk"
