Now to prevent confusion I have colorized the NPCs names and Dialog. For reference:

Cindy

Mandy

Axel

Mr.Icarious

COMMUNICATION IS ENCOURAGED.

Cindy accepted the cookie-ball thing that was given to her and reacted with a confused expression. Coughing a little, she asks Yufi.

“Yea…definitely an acquired..taste..what kind of food was that?”

Seeing the display done by Tahamuras, Mandy nodded.

“This seems like it’ll be quite a performance. You seem to have a decent control over it too! Hmmm wonder if we couldn’t use this magic show to tell a story… any ideas?”

Mandy generally asked the others in the room for suggestions. Cindy says.

“The Fae See has some stories from what I heard… Widersia has sounded like a neat country but never heard any urban legends from there… Republic lf Kuridan might have some tales.”

She answered her brother, thinking about it before turning to Yufi, seeming confused.

“What’s a Kyuubi and a Kumiho?“

Mandy blinked.

“I assume that was Terran…?”

He asked Cindy who replied.

“Yes it was.”

Mr. Icarious asked.

“Don’t you know Terran yourself?”

He shook his head.

“No, I was taught Sylvan.”

He then turns to Tahmara’s

"How long do you think you can hold that up? I think I got an idea our performance will be displaying a story…but what story has a fox that anyone knows of?”

With Amice, Simi and the Seals, who responded to her by bouncing the ball back and forth energetically. Booping it around with their snouts flopping around. However, the third seal flopped it’s way over to Simi.

|Fish? Fish?|

“What... what does that mean?” She asked, as rather than having as much as a single question answered, she got told some things were better left unknown. Wait. That did ring some bell. “Is that like how you're not allowed to know where babies come from?” She asked, wondering if it was the same type of general secret.

“They can do that? That sounds so cool!” She jumped up and clapped her hands upon the suggestions of the seals bouncing balls together. “Can they also do the thing where they bounce more than one ball at the time?” She'd ask, wondering how much these seals were capable of.

Tahmuras

Spoiler: full image

“I've no clue what those are, all I can say is that I'm a proud Vulpix!” He replied, a bit confused by what Yuze was calling him. Also, is that a jelly filled doughnut? “These terms you keep using, are they from Kuridan?” He asked, as that was the closest he could relate them too.

Turning to Mandy, he tilted his head a bit sideways as he was thinking. “That might work, but I don't know too many stories. Asuka normally tells them to Amice. I think there's one about an ugly duckling that turns into a Phoenix and then burns all the ones that bullied her to ashes?” He recalled one folklore story.

“I can assure you, it wasn't Sylvan.” The fox replied upon hearing that mentioned. He'd have known the meaning. “I thought it was Beastial, one of the Kuridian dialects, in particular.”

“Most likely long enough to last an entire show. At worst I'd need a quick breather or dim it a little.” He answered next, with some proud confidence.

"Hmm, oh those are [Hyorougan] or ration pills, they are made with two kinds of rice, lotus seeds, sticky yams, cinnamon, ginseng, sugar, and pickled plums. Not the tastiest of food I do say but three of them can feed the bare minimum of calories a person needs for a day, because of the amount of nutrients it has. Plus they can survive for long after you make them, albeit mine are only a month old, properly made ones are still edible and full of nutrients for up to two years. In the past, they were used as a ration for warriors and spies. I think the republic of Kuridan has them as well or at least had them."
Replied Yufi to Cindy's question, as she herself popped another one into her mouth, carefully chewing it before swallowing it.

"Oh did I start speaking in Terran again?" Said Yufi, placing on of her hands on the back of her head wanting to scratch it out of embarrassment
"Yes it was Terran, though you assuming it was Kuridian wasn't that much off the target. Terran is a weird language, after all, I don't even know how I know it. Uhm Kyuubi and Kumiho are essentially the same but different. You could say that Kumiho is a species of fox spirits, they often appear as regular foxes that can summon fires usually blue or white ones. The more tails they have the more human they can appear, with Kyuubi having nine tails. Their human form is usually of a beautiful man or woman, with nine tails and fox ears. Depending on where you asked they could range from regular neutral living beings who love to play pranks to benevolent beings a simple person could mistake for something of greater power so some shrines were built, though some places paint them as malevolent man-eating creatures who devour one's soul to steal their powers."
Explained Yufi to Cindy's question, while trying to correct herself to Tahmara, so as to not appear bad.
"Of course, I was comparing you to the neutral ones Tahmara's. I cannot see you in the light of malevolent ones, though for the benevolent one you lack a bit of social tact from what iv seen."

Yufi's eyes sparkled for a bit after connecting the dots about why the name Vulpix felt familiar to her, it did take a bit of time so when she finally did it she spoke.
"A vulpix you said, that name is familiar to me though. The being who had that name looked far cuter than you Tahmara. No offense of course."

 

[Spoiled Bread]

Simi

---

|Yes, fish!| Simi gave the seals modest claps and rewarded them with some fishes. Though she's careful not to overfed the seals. A sleepy, full-bellied, lazy seals wouldn't be motivated to perform well afterall. She might not looks like it, but she's experienced at instructing a bunch of goofballs around. Speaking of goofballs... Simi glanced at the circus' entrance. She's sure she told Potty to bring her crews over here. She wanted to have them do the more menial tasks and wring out more money from Mr. Icarius, but for some reason they haven't arrive here yet. Oh, well, whatever. They probably got lost or distracted like usual.

|Use flippers and tail too| She briefed the seals, trying to improve their performance. |More claps, more fish to eat!|

"Hmm? Babies?" Simi shifted her attention when hearing Amice's question? After a brief thinking, Simi dramatically over her mouth and looked at Amice in shock

"Did no one told you where babies come from? Well then let big sis Simi teach you." Puffing up her chest in pride, the sea fae took this opportunity to boost her own already inflated ego. One of Simi's hand wrapped around Amice's shoulders while the other was extended forward, asking Simi to use her imagination.

"You see, babies comes from... eggs! Once an egg get enough time the baby inside it will break through the shell and swim freely into the world! Its a beautiful sight especially when hundreds of them hatched at the same time." Simi seemed to be very satisfied with her answer. Her tiny fish brain didn't seems to know, or care, that mammals was rather different in that regard.

Shifting her attention back to the seals. Simi addressed the seals with a more firm tone in her voice. The circus was the ship, she's the captain, the seals were her crews and Amice was the random princess she kidnapped for no reason, at least that's what the setting in her mind.

|One more time! Use flippers and tail too! Juggle as long as you can!| Simi tossed the ball again, but this time she tossed another ball soon after, and then another one. She wanted to see the seals at their peak potential! Juggle multiple balls with each others!

Other information:

The last round was intended to be the last round, but for a proper cut off of conversations I’ll change that to this one to finish up IC dialog. Next round will be the start of the show.



For Simi Language keys: “Common” |Aquatic Life|

Now to prevent confusion I have colorized the NPCs names and Dialog. For reference:

Cindy

Mandy

Axel

Mr.Icarious

COMMUNICATION IS ENCOURAGED.

Cindy replies to Yufi’s explanation of the Hyorougan.

“Interesting, might be useful when traveling to places for performances.”

Mandy and Cindy listened to Yufi’s explanation of what a Kumiho and Kyuubi were. Mandy tells Yufi.

“Sounds like some of the trickster fae I heard of from The See.”

He turns to Tahmuras and Mandy.

“Hmmm….then maybe we could make up a story? I am unfamiliar with them myself.”

While Mandy spoke, Mr. Icarious went outside the tent to Simi, Amice and Asuka. The seals respond to the commands from Simi. The sun was noticably dipping further down into the sky a purplish and orange hue indicating it getting closer to night time.

“Hey you three, it’s getting closer to show time! How about you meeting back up with the others in the tent while I go get Axel and the guy who was helping him so we can prepare for the animal show?”

“Oh, yes! Let me know!” She was exited the big secret was finally going to be revealed.

Asuka

Spoiler: full image

In the background, a large bird was starting to frown. She did not like the direction this was heading, but decided to risk it for now.

Luckily, leaving it be seemed to be the right move. Amice, however, nodded vigorously at Simi's explanations. “I knew it! It's just like with Asuka and the other birds!” She was pretty satisfied with that. “Wait... swim? What if they can't swim though, won't the baby drawn? Aren't eggs up in nests in the trees? Besides, isn't hundreds way too many? You'd not be able to raise that many children, right?” That was all getting confusing. That said, there was, most definitely, a bonus question. “But... then where do eggs come from?”

For the better, her attention was soon drawn to the seals again. “You can do it! Hup! Hup!” She cheered on the seals, hoping for them to be able to juggle well and for long.

Tahmuras

Spoiler: full image

Tahmuras was having slightly less of a good time. “Why would a fox want to appear more human? No offence, but they don't appeal to me at all. Nor does the thought of looking like on.” He instantly huffed and puffed upon being insulted next. “Why, for someone claiming I have no social tact, that is a rather rude and sudden insult. I'd have you know I'm highly popular among other Fae and a real party-animal at it. Even the Satyrs can't keep up with me.” He clearly felt rather insulted.

To make matters worse, he just got called by the wrong name as he was told he wasn't cute while at it. “Why, by all means, pile on some more insults. I'd almost assume you wish to challenge me!” He spew (literal) fire for a bit. “The name is Tahmuras and whilst I'm not necessarily striving to be 'cute' it is rather odd to be called I'm not 'cute' enough to be my own species. Insulting and confusing alike, for that matter.”

Sighing in relief, he'd scoff at the idea of making up a story. “How about the fox-prince and the woman that came to insult him? It'll be about a fox who's randomly getting insult about not being cute enough to be his own species and being told he lacks social tact.” He stated, still feeling rather annoyed.

As for the mister, he'd nod. “Sure, we can meet back up. I can give them a fiery show. Even though we'd need to improvise our story.”

"I didn't say you weren't popular Tahmara, that was your assumption." Exclaimed Yufi, feeling a tad offended at his assumption that she called him unpopular.
"I'm not insulting you Tahmara." Yufi felt even more offended at those words but bottled that feeling inside of herself, after all, it would be rude to act up here.

"Oh, I'm so so sorry, about that Tahmuras, it might be your sylvan accent or I might have misheard when you were introduced that caused me to not say your name properly. Please forgive me for that." Yufi knelt towards Tahmuras, her arms stretched wide with hands on the ground and forehead hitting it as well. She spoke to Tahmura not even looking in his direction her gaze focused on the ground. Only after a short while she raised her head and hands from the ground.
"And in case of that Vulpix." Said Yufi before taking her sheathed sword and drawing what she remembered to be a Vulpix from the Pokemon series, from her past life. Then, she hides her sheathed blade to its position on her back.
"This is the creature I know under that very same name that is the name of your species as well. So please understand where I come from Tahmuras, or at least know I didn't do that out of ill will."
Yufi finally looked at Tahmuras, her eyes and facial expression even if light did show she was truly sorry and sad about what a few misunderstandings and misspoke words could lead to.

Now to prevent confusion I have colorized the NPCs names and Dialog. For reference:

Cindy

Mandy

Axel

Mr.Icarious

COMMUNICATION IS ENCOURAGED.

The stars began to flicker in the night sky. A dim light began to show itself as the sky got darker with deeper hues of pink and purple and some black even began to show the two moons of the world, one green and one pink began to float into the sky as nighttime arrived. The campgrounds began bustling with activity as circus goers began to show up, entering the tent and taking seats in the wooden stands set up in the Traveling Misfits Circus. When the circus was filled with people, Mr. Icarious showed up to the center of one of the main stages, specifically in the middle where the crowds could see him.



“Welcome all to the Misfits Circus! The show will begin momentarily! Special thanks to all the temporary hires who have joined us today to keep the show going!”



Magic circles of light lit up the respective stages, the stage with the tight ropes showed Cindy standing on top with a wooden sword at the ready. The cloudy fog that was there for safety measures seemed more potent than it was earlier that day. Making it exceedingly safer for the performers. In the middle, Mr. Icarious stepped off-stage to make room for Mandy, who made a greeting to the audience with a small flare of a few flames from his palm. First, red, another blue and another green and another white. And then the next stage. Axel was standing near the cages. It was a wooden stage with a small pool filled with the respective obstacles the seals would need. However, the dire tigers; Heiro and Ignus, still sat in their cages. Axel opened the cage to release them, picking up the rings for their performance.

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Hunter picked up the rings as well, smiling nervously. He had a sweat coming on and rubbed the back of his neck. He was scared to something wrong. "Do I walk out now? What if I trip up or something?" He muttered to Axel, his face slowly turning red as he imagined everything that could go wrong onstage

Tahmuras

The fox raised an eyebrow at Yufi's explanations. “Fine, fine. I'll assume it was just cultural differences and accents.” He eventually concluded, deciding it was not worth starting up a fight. Wait... he was a tad surprised when she started kneeling. “Ehm... is that a cultural thing as well? In the See we'd only do that to worship someone.” He stated, clearly feeling a tad awkward.

Looking at the image, he'd wasn't sure what to reply. “I'd agree 'cute' would be an apt description of that, yes. Though it is really odd to know there's a species sharing the name of mine with such a... how to say... domesticated appearance?” He wasn't sure what to call it, but he wasn't the most fond of it. “Well, all is good.” He eventually concluded, picking up on her sincerity.

He looked at Mandy, showing off coloured flames. That was one trick Tahmuras did not posses. He wondered how he did it. He also wondered when it was his time to do something, as he was staring at the performers to see if they'd cue him in or something.

Meanwhile, Asuka and Amice had made their ways into the stands. The gnome was already getting excited, seeing the coloured flames and all that. She was eager to see what was going to happen soon.

Yuze "Yufi" Fujiyo​

Languages: Common | [Terran]
Mention: DarkKitsune

Yufi cleaned herself up before the grand opening act of the circus began hiding her personal sword behind her outermost layer of clothing, and applied some borrowed makeup from Cindy to touch up her face a bit. Now ready Yufi began her walk to the stage, a slow elegant walk towards the pillar, a quick climb up, and once she was at the top the lights lit up her and Cindy's stage.

Yufi simply bowed toward the audience when Mr. Icarious spoke about the temporary hires, before turning on her heel to face Cindy who stood on the opposite side. Yufi let out a deep breath to calm her nerves, after which a smile began to form on her face, she looked at Cindy as she stood there ready to start. Yufi simply gestured to Cindy if they should start the performance now or if they should let others begin their performances first. With Cindy giving the same gesture back she knew they were the opening act.

So the two flourished their swords before entering the tightrope, once on it the two quickly approached each other and began their dance of swords. Cindy's sword flew low but Yufi stepped back in time to dodge it, then Yufi's sword soared high at Cindy's neckline, but she simply leaned back dodging by hair's breadth. Then once again they struck at each other only for their swords to clash, swords held tightly by both sides spun around in a circle, but none let their swords leave their hands. The two regained their grip on their swords as they gained some distance between each other.

Cindy stretched out her free hand towards Yufi and beckoned her to come and get her, so Yufi complied speeding off toward Cindy swinging her sword at Cindy's midsection which she skillfully blocked by simply placing her sword onto her side. Their act of sword fighting went back and forth sometimes they struck on the middle of the tightrope, sometimes closer to one's platform, as if to signify which side was losing more in this fight by how close they were to their starting platform. The act lasted some time but it reached its finale when they once again reached the middle of the tightrope and fought there for a bit. The situation resembled their previous training there. Once again their swords crossed and spun around each other sending one of their swords flying off and down to the clouds below. Now the last action was left for the victor to choose, it was Cindy's choice what to do with Yufi who lost her sword in that exchange, make it more dramatic, more friendly or should she throw Yufi off the ropes into the clouds below to finish their acts.

 

[Spoiled Bread]

Simi

---

Peeking out from the back of the circus' stage was a large colorful hat as Simi tried to see the opening act from her position. She didn't want to miss this experience so her eyes had been darting all over the place so she could brag about how many people were clapping for her performance later. That's when she spotted them, sitting in the same row with their blubbery face stuffing some carnaval snacks were five blob-shaped creatures with clear bluish body that almost make them looks like slime creature.

"Idiot!!!!" The fae almost yelled when she saw them. She did told them to come to the circus but they're so stupid they mistook her order as coming to the circus as visitor instead. The skeletal bird was nowhere to be seen, Potty was a monster so he rarely show himself to the public unless she's around, though he's probably hiding somewhere near.

Simi seethed even more when she saw one of the blob gulping down a bunch of cotton candies like it was peanuts, she wanted some cotton candies too! Fuming with jealously, Simi's little brain started working and tried to make a scheme to somehow give her own crews some lessons during her performance.​

the clashing of swords and movements on the tightrope. A circle light on them that would make the crowd focus their eyes on the Yufi and Cindy who performed with swift movements and back and forth. The performance came to a close when Cindy caused Yufi to fall onto the magic clouds before. Causing it to bounce up and down concluding the performance with an excited crowd. Cheers Sounded from the audience. Meanwhile On the stage with the animals Axel gestures for Hunter to follow, With Ignus and Heiro making a separate gesture they were trained to understand to follow.

“Have some faith in yourself! Seems Cindy and her fellow performer got the crowd going tonight. If we can keep that excitement up I’ll treat everyone to all sorts of treats provided by the circus!”

Axel then looked at Simi.

“That goes for you as well!”

Axel enters the stage. And tosses the smaller ring up in the air for Heiro. The Dire tiger jumped through it and Axel tossed a 2nd ring one slightly larger then the last. And the cycle repeated it’s self with each ring proceeding to get bigger and the rings tossed higher this time. And then Axel looked to see if Hunter was performing if he was Axel would toss the ring that was big enough for both Heiro and Ignus to jump through.

On the center stage Mandy summoned a horse that was made or flames and looked at Tahmuras Mandy told the Vulpix.

“Come on Tahmuras! Just like we spoke about eariler.”

The flames of the horse would change colors from red, to white to green. Mandy controled and focused the flaming horse to run around a bit to start them off.

Looking excitedly about all that was happening, she'd applaud Yufi from the stands, enthusiastically clapping her hands together. “That was so exciting!” She called out. This was so much better than doing that sword stuff with... goblins. She nearly thought about them, but was quickly distracted again when it looked like other shows were about to start. Including one of Thamuras.

Tahmuras

Spoiler: full image

“Ladies, gentleman and gentle-people!”

“It is time for us to perform for you a heart-warming story!”

“A fiery display!”

They stated, after Mandy having gotten the crowd's attention by using the flaming horse.

“Once upon a time, in a mysterious land, far far away, there was a gorgeous princess!” He stated, as he summoned the visage of royal looking princess through the fire and flame around him.

“The princess, in fact, was so gorgeous, that knights from all over the continent wished to come ask for her hand!” Thamuras stated, as he made knight-shaped visages of flame and fire walk up to Mandy's illusion of a fiery princess.

“Even so, she turned them down, one after the other!” Mandy stated, dispelling Tahmuras' magic illusions and making them vanish like smoke.

“Sadly, her father, the king, grew tired and asked her to find a candidate to marry, so that she would not bring shame upon the family!” Tahmuras stated, using fire magic to display an old looking king firmly speaking down upon the princess.

“The princess agreed, but on one condition. She would ask to be imprisoned in a tower in the mountains, so that she may save the knight brave enough to come save her!” He stated, shaping a tower with his fire magic, making it look like a desolate and empty plains in the mountains as best as he could.

“Her father, agreed. Yet many of the knights that attempt to reach her to free her gave up, unable to go through the long journey and harsh conditions.” Tahmuras added, having many fiery knights walk towards the tower shaped by Mandy's fire, yet all of them fizzling out before they reached it.

“Until one day, the king heard news. Terrible news. A dragon had landed upon the tower!” Through combined efforts, with Mandy keeping the shape of the fiery tower up whilst Tahmuras landed a fiery dragon on top of it, they managed to make a fairly fiery spectacle out of it.

“The dragon roared, breathing so much fire that it melted to snow upon the mountains and made all the knights flee in terror!” He stated, using his fire magic to make the fire dragon breath fire.

“The king was desperate, for now, nobody would ever save and marry his daughter.”

“Yet, as he was about to give up, he was one day greeted by his daughter, along with a rough yet handsome looking woman.” He stated, turning the visage of the dragon into that of some form of warrior.

“The king asked her who she was and why she'd brought his daughter along.”

“Yet when she answered, fire escaped her lips and the king knew! This was not a woman, this was a dragon whom had taken upon the shape of a Human!” Thamuras spoke, giving the woman dragon-shaped wings and a dragon-shaped tail. “She spoke up and told the king that he had to live up to his promise, for the one who'd freed his daughter from the tower was none other than her!”

“As the woman spoke, the King froze up. Yet he knew that he couldn't come back on his promise. However, what he saw was something he never saw before. His daughter was smiling at the dragon-woman who'd freed her.”

“And thus, the king surrendered, allowing the dragon-woman to marry his daughter. After which they lived happily together, exploring the world together.” Tahmuras stated as he and Mandy made the sight of a Dragon with a princess riding atop it from fire, getting smaller and smaller as if they were flying off into their happily-ever-after.

 

[Spoiled Bread]

Simi

---

"Allright, you goofs. Vacation over. Time to work!" Simi sneaked into the spectator seat and dragged her crew of sea gels into the back stage. The crew didn't seems to mind though, whether they're doing it by being enthusiastic spectators or directly helping with the performance, they simply want to support their captain.

There's only a bit of time before its their turn to perform so Simi gathered the seals and the sea gels. Together they formed a rather rowdy bunch as the fae tried to coordinate a choreography involving all of them. It wasn't easy, but the moment she moment she said that Mr. Icarious would let them feast on as much foods as they want if the performance was successful, the group quickly united under one universal motivation.

Whoops, with these much people to feed, she would really wringing Mr. Icarious' pocket... just like a pirate!

"Shihihihihihihihihi!" Simi was performing her evil laugh when the cue for her turn to perform finally arrive. With a determined look the short fae led the group as they enter the stage

"Allright, crew. Its show time!!"

...........................

For her part, the majority of the stage had been turned into a large pool with various colorful toys floating on it. The circusgoers would witness five curious blue blobs rolled into the pool before Simi and the three seals entered. Simi opened her performance with some simple tricks as the seals enthusiastly jump over and swim under some obstacles.

Then after a few minutes of warming up, the real performance began. The seals jumped into the pool and Simi tossed a rubber ball to each of the seals. Just like what they practiced the seals easily balanced the balls on their snouts. Then, as if the seals had an ability to walk on water, they raised their front body above the water and started to clap with their flippers.

|More claps, more fish!|

|More claps, more fish!|

|More claps, more fish!|

The seals talk to encourage each other. Simi could only shrug at the seals' misunderstanding of her words. At least it would keep the seals motivated. Now time to move to the next part of the performance. Simi approached the edge of the pool, and then stepped on the water. Just like the seal, it was as if Simi can just walk on the water's surface.

The secret? Simple, the sea gels had the same color as water and while they're quite visible at close proximity , its unlikely for the audiences to spot them from their seat. So Simi simply told her crew of sea gels to go into the water and became moving pedestal for her and the seals to step on, creating an illusion of them walking on the water surface. The sea gels also had the same size, shape and texture similar to a circus ball so it wasn't hard for the seals to treat them as one.

"I AM SIMI AND I WILL BECOME THE PIRATE KING IN THE FUTURE!!! REMEMBER THIS!" Simi suddenly announced herself. Its definitely not part of the script, but she just wanted to build some reputation for herself and got people to know her by name. Though it seemed most people there thought it was part of the performance.

Then the performance moved into the the next stage as the fae signaled for the gels to move underwater. The spectators would see the seals moving around the pool without having to move any of their flippers, all while still balancing the ball on their snouts. Then the performance became more elaborate as Simi instructed them to weave over moving obstacle, jumped into a large ring that she held above her head, and passed the balls to each other. Once they reached the climax, Simi, the seals and the gels jumped out of the pool, completely revealing their trick and bowed in unison to the audiences.​

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Hunter would be commanding the tigers, his smile getting a bit bigger each time. he tried his best to block out the crowd, but found it easier when he wasn't consciously doing so. Hunter picked up a couple rings himself from the ground and juggled them between axel as the rings crossed each other and looped. He was unsteady but laughed. The rings ignited in a rose flame that looked like Stars as they flew into the air and the tigers jumped through them. He looked at the crowd and he smiled cheerfully with his teeth shining white in the light. His face turned red a bit after watching the crowds reaction for a while however, as he seemed stuck in place.

Other information:

Alright due to the kind of posts that were posted last round seems like we need another.

But this is the LAST round. As explained prior but with more details:

Preform the shows as you wish or was ‘taught’ you are allowed to assume the NPCs are following along with your character in some manner. Post should contain the performance of each character. (Basically follow Meg’s example last round)

For Simi Language keys: “Commom” |Aquatic Life|

Now to prevent confusion I have colorized the NPCs names and Dialog. For reference:

Cindy

Mandy

Axel

Mr.Icarious

COMMUNICATION IS ENCOURAGED.

the clashing of swords and movements on the tightrope. A circle light on them that would make the crowd focus their eyes on the Yufi and Cindy who performed with swift movements and back and forth. The performance came to a close when Cindy caused Yufi to fall onto the magic clouds before. Causing it to bounce up and down concluding the performance with an excited crowd. Cheers Sounded from the audience. Meanwhile On the stage with the animals Axel gestures for Hunter to follow, With Ignus and Heiro making a separate gesture they were trained to understand to follow.

“Have some faith in yourself! Seems Cindy and her fellow performer got the crowd going tonight. If we can keep that excitement up I’ll treat everyone to all sorts of treats provided by the circus!”

Axel then looked at Simi.

“That goes for you as well!”

Axel enters the stage. And tosses the smaller ring up in the air for Heiro. The Dire tiger jumped through it and Axel tossed a 2nd ring one slightly larger then the last. And the cycle repeated it’s self with each ring proceeding to get bigger and the rings tossed higher this time. And then Axel looked to see if Hunter was performing if he was Axel would toss the ring that was big enough for both Heiro and Ignus to jump through.

On the center stage Mandy summoned a horse that was made or flames and looked at Tahmuras Mandy told the Vulpix.

“Come on Tahmuras! Just like we spoke about eariler.”

The flames of the horse would change colors from red, to white to green. Mandy controled and focused the flaming horse to run around a bit to start them off.

[Megilagor]

Yuze "Yufi" Fujiyo​

Languages: Common | [Terran]
Mention:

Yufi didn't really expect Cindy to kick her off the ropes, so her fall was fully unexpected and unprepared, though the extremely fluffy clouds down below. Just as a small additional performance as Yufi kept on bouncing on the clouds she decided to do some flips, splits, and similar other airborne acrobatics to add eye candy for the circus watchers. Only when she stopped bouncing did she decide to just lay down on the corner of the clouds after returning the wooden sword to its place.

Laying there on the very soft and fluffy cloud Yufi enjoyed watching the shows of others probably being the first one of the audience members to clap whistle and generally be happy about their shows. After all the shows were meant to be enjoyed, and a good circus performer will be happy when even one person is happy about their performance. At least that's what her previous ringmaster taught her after she joined them.

Sensing that the performance was slowly coming to a close, Yufi scrambled herself to the back of the tent for a quick refreshment of makeup and made herself a tad bit more presentable. However, she did not know if in this world every circus member joined the ringmaster in the middle for the final farewell of the circus goers or not but she wanted to at least look good for it. Now ready she awaited the closing act from the back.

Hope you all enjoyed this rp! The outcome of this conclusion was decided by dice rolls. Other then that I know most may have lacked performance skills that may have been required for some things. Which is why dice was applied. It is safe to say this rp doesn’t follow advanced standards.

COMMUNICATION IS ENCOURAGED.

Everyone’s performances garnered an excited and cheerful crowd. Mandy and Tahmura’s show was received well as their talents with magic displayed a story with flames and light. The crowd was especially enthusiastic at the visage of a dragon. Once the two concluded their performance and presumably left the stage, all eyes were on the troupe members working with the animals. First was Simi’s performance. The Seals who seemed all too hyper as they performed with an energy that could rival that of an energetic child, balancing the balls on their noses and providing general entertainment. Hunter’s performance with Axel was also met with great reception, as Hunter’s rings glowed a rosy red and Ignus the dire tiger jumping through them despite the heat. The tiger did not have much of a reaction to the flames. The audience cheered and applauded, although a few members of the audience were slightly concerned about all the fire shown. Although that concern was washed a way with it being impressive the tent didn’t burn down. After the performance, everyone would be treated to food and dessert (including cotton candy) by Axel. Asuka would be caught up by receiving a compliment on her feathers from a circus goer wih a mention that they haven’t seen anything like Asuka since a trip to the Fae see.After the crowd disappeared in the morning, Cindy, Mandy, Axel and Icarious would probably be busy packing everything up and preparing for their next travels to the next nation, likely still not the East or the Fae See any time soon though.

Isekai Hell Grade​

DarkKitsune DragonSlayer57 Elvario Megilagor Spoiled Bread

Seemed fun, but probably coulda benefitted from teaparty status. Makes me think of the circus theme in my head. Dire Tigers seems like a spiffy idea. Another rp where companions seem to play bigger roles than the characters that spawned them, le sigh. Too bad things couldn't end peacefully.

Aftermath

During one of the circuses performances, the 'living ship' the Wailing Rhodon appeared, its horde of undead slaughtering and pillaging circus personnel and circus goers alike. In the chaos, members of the Roze Trifecta kidnapped/stole many of the circus attractions. The circus would struggle to stay afloat after.
