Lucas shook his head, sorry that he meant Emmaline feel unwanted.
"No no, I didn't mean it like that. I prefer you stay actually." He made some room for Emmaline on the bench. He was thoughtful for a moment.
"Have you ever made someone you love, Cenzio and Palomar for example, incredibly...
Lucas looked at Emmaline with a look of confusion. He had expected her to treat him with more wariness.
"Perhaps ashamed isn't the right word.."
He sat down on a bench going through his thoughts.
"Perhaps careless? Humans are not renowned for their silence. It would have behooved me to...
Lucas paused to stop and think for a minute. He was not sure if Emmaline quite realized what he did last night. Palomar saw what he did and even tried to stop him, but he didn't tell Emmaline? Curious indeed.
Lucas looked at Emmaline with a weary and exhausted look.
"Its less that I'm upset...
Edith sighed heavily. Despite Cenzio and Palomar's reassuring words, she was unable to shake these dark premonitions about the future.
"Maybe once these humans would have leapt at their own shadows. But they are no longer the drooling neanderthals they once were. They have learned much."...
Edith looked a little surprised as the doll spoke her first words since Edith had arrived. She paused thoughtfully as she tried to remember in what direction Lucas was heading.
"I seem to recall that he was headed in the direction I was leaving. My best gurds would be that he was headed for...
Edith sat on the edge of her seat as she listened intently to the duo. She also regarded Emmaline with a look of concern.
"No, I haven't. My Lucas walked by a moment ago however. He seemed ready to collapse where he stood."
Edith hung her head sadly. She stared wistfully out a window.
"I...
(Sorry for the XXL post! :\)
Lucas' heart slowed as he grew more and more calmer. In place of anger he only felt a sudden onset of weariness. His vision grew a little cloudy. Yet even in his jaded state, he frowned when Nora appeared from seemingly nowhere. He had neither the will nor the...
Lucas had been busy in the last few minutes. He slammed the man into the frame once more. Hard. A groan escaped his lips. The man was barely lucid. The Lucas now wasn't the Lucas known by the circus any longer. The alcohol and anger transformed him into something darker and more...agitated.
He...
(Thats alright, this is probably even longer. Also Lucas making a REEEEALLY bad decision=drama! :D )

Lucas watched Emmaline go through the door frame. As soon as he was sure she was gone, he closed his eyes as if contemplating something. What he was about to do was...
Lucas shook his head no in response to Emmaline. He was still quite drunk.
"No no, I'm fine. It takes a lot more than this to kill someone like me. Its just..."
Lucas reared his head as sounds of commotion sounded off behind him. His fellow cirque members had begun fighting some unfortunate...
Lucas shrugged his shoulders in a gesture of compliance. He rested his body against the wooden frame of the wall.
"To be honest, I didn't think I would get this far. By now I'm usually passed out drunk while whoever spent the night with me goes through my pockets. Its a nice change from norm...
Lucas shrugged his shoulders as they maneuvered their way through the bar towards a more calm part of the bar. He raised one of his eyebrows and laughed at Emmaline's response.
"No, I suppose it would be difficult to support a fantastic specimen such as moi. All that toned muscle is a burden...
Lucas chuckled softly at Emmaline's question. His cheeks were still flushed from the kiss and his heartrate had no intention of slowing down. He was just relieved that Emmaline decided to return the kiss, as many others did not.
He stood up from his chair.
"My dearest Emmaline, I would do...
"This is insane." Lucas thought to himself. He had done far bolder and far crazier things, but none had him this anxious before the act. Despite his nervousness, Lucas grinned with a slightly devious smile. He had heard Daniel and his group leave the bar without any further incident, which let...
Lucas raised his eyebrows and chuckled. He looked thoughtful for a moment. Alcohol brought the best and worst out of him, and Lucas wasn't about to stop drinking.
"So the kitten wants to learn how to seduce. Well watch closely. I only get this drunk once a week. To be too bold brings its own...
Lucas let out a knowing smile. As if he had done countless times before.
"Nothing. At least for a little while. If they do not see you like that, they pull away almost immediately. But those that stay their hand..."
He downed yet another shot glass. Soon the feeling of anger and his normal...
Lucas went quiet as soon as Daniel left his presence. He seemed to be figuring something out. Eventually his face settled on a sort of sad, amused expression.
He sat down next to Emmaline, in Daniel's seat.
"I suppose the humans are getting bolder and bolder in their advances. I give him a...
Lucas wanted nothing more than to take the man by the neck and smash him through the table, all the way through the Earth and personally lock him in Hell.. His heart pounded with an old rage he hadn't felt in many a year.
"No... Calm down...Not here not now."
Lucas couldn't do it here, not...
Lucas finished the last of his drink and hiccuped loudly. He placed his hand on his heart to Kora's response.
"Oh stop it you! You're really too much..."
He laughed heartily and gaily. Gaily.
"Well, you can continue praising me if you waaaant."
Lucas rolled his eyes when he heard Nora...
