5th Act - The GRAND Opening!
Who: Come one and all!
Where: Goldenrod
When: Throughout April 30th - May 3rd
Summary: The Eve's Garden Circus is officially open for business! When it comes to a circus, what better group to put the 'grand' in 'Grand Opening'?
Rating: PG

It's that time everyone's been waiting for! Time to put that nasty train robbery behind everyone. After all, haven't you heard?
Throughout the streets of Goldenrod, folks will find all sorts of colorful characters and Pokemon about. Fliers and the like have been regular this last month or so, but the advertising is in full force today just to make it EXTRA apparent that today is the day. Another hint is all the air traffic in the skies- various Flying-type Pokemon that make up the Circus' transportation service. Who knows? Maybe you're one of those using it today!
And of course, who can miss the colorful spectacle that is the circus itself? Past the entrance gate (which will let you onto the circus grounds for a miniscule fee) are dozens and dozens of stalls and little tents. Looming over them is the main tent itself, a monstrosity of bright welcoming colors. There are all sorts of things amongst their ranks, but it's generally fairly easy to find what you're looking for as Pidgey of a feather flock together and all that... From games of all sorts like the usual carnival games to more of a retro arcade, to a set of shops with local crafts and maybe something from the foreign trainers.... Of course, there's also all sorts of food stalls and even shacks for more filling stuff.
With all that alone, you could probably keep busy for most of the day! But surely you aren't forgetting the Big Act?
Yep, the big acts in the Big Top. Times are posted both at the front gate, on fliers you can pick up here and there, and by the entrance to the large tent. For each day, there will be three shows! Better hope you can snag a ticket before they get sold out... Although maybe you'll get lucky for the next show. Or the next day....
Either way, it promises to be a fun few days!

The cities in Johto are a far cry from Amestrian cities. Filled with life and light and now, of course, a carnival. It isn't quite like anything Scar has seen before, and taking it all in is a bit of a sensory overload.
His Teddiursa is at least having fun. She's spent most of the day on Scar's shoulder, taking in the sights and loading up on sweets. The two are making their way away from the Test of Strength just as the little bear Pokémon hops off Scar's shoulder, eager to show off her newly-won Aron plushie to whomever is willing to look.
That "whomever" turns out to be Winry and Didi.
Meet Yaminah the Teddiursa, guys. She's a typically mild-mannered one, but at the moment, she just can't wait to show off the prize her trainer has just won her. The stuffy is about as big as she is, but she holds it up all the same, hopping up and down and babbling to grab their attention. Scar himself is shortly in tow-]
Yaminah, come, you're bothering them.
[He shows no outward sign of knowing who Winry is.]
1 / i have absolutely no idea ... less than 100, I guess |:
...Wait, why Aron? Arons are EVIL in an automail mechanic's opinion anyway. What's their favorite food? Metal, iron, whatever like that. How many Edward Elrics have had an Aron here? Well, the first one's Aron and its evolutions weren't the last one to have it around in their team. How is Winry's relationship with those beasts?
Oh well, who cares when it's just a plushie this time! Wait, no she gets an idea and she claps her hands together.]
Heeeeee, your plushie is so cute! Didi, I have an idea for whenever he shows up again, if he even will show up! What if we got one of those to Ed too and if he ever wants to get the real thing, we just deny it from him for ev--
[The voice of someone, who apparently is the Teddiursa's trainer, cuts her words.]
2 / idk
3 / seriously though, this might take a while |:
4 / ??
5 / ??
6 / ?? idk, more likely around 10 than 100
7 / ??
8 / ?? i'll stop soon-ish, promise
9 / maybe 12, maybe
10 / 12
11 / 12 ... also wow, self, pick the right icons please?
Not that it's really helping the fact that she has no idea how she should be here, then, or the fact that her heart is racing like this is a horror movie time or something.
Ohkaaaaaay, let's try the thing called calming down. ]
12 / 12, done | oh geez, Winry
It's not like your pokemon was bothering us at all.
[... should she say something else? She's kind of lost about what to even say here.]
no subject
Her reaction, though...
Scar heart feels like it's frozen over for the moment the young woman panics. Either she's recognized him as Ishbalan (he really needs to get some damn sunglasses) or she's recognized him. Scar. The mark slashed across his face makes hiding his identity impossible, even to someone who's only read the news stories.
He's on edge, eyeing the stranger warily even as she calms down. What should he say? He should just run now, but she's not drawing any attention to him. There's not point in making himself look guilty.]
She's eaten too many sweets.
[Scar hesitates. He has to know... He knew his race and reputation would follow him here. It had only been a question of "when."]
Are you Amestrian?
no subject
So, was he from before they met or from the other Amestris, and who knew if they ever even met there?]
Looks like it happens to many of them here. [Can you blame them? Sweets everywhere!
... Swallow. She hesitates with her reply for a moment. Frowning a bit, very unsure of what to say here. ]
Yes. Automail mechanic from a little rural town, name's Winry Rockbell. [So she's completely harmless! Mostly.] Did anyone explain to you how time and other things can be weird here?
no subject
[By now, Yaminah has figured out that something is up, and has returned to stand next to Scar's leg. That she would bring up time differences is enough for him to lean toward the assumption that she, on some level, knows who he is. He would have the urge to tell her that he means her no harm, but there isn't a point. There's no convincing anyone of that.
But if she's an automail mechanic...]
Why do you ask?
no subject
Because that usually explains why two -- or more -- people from the same world can be in a situation, where one of them recognizes the other. [Swallow. Of course that's different if someone is a nation-wide known murderer. Which just means she could have just seen his picture somewhere, but... ...] ...Or well, it can be a lot more tricky than that, since apparently there are two different versions of Amestris.
[She's kind of just talking before she can even think too much. The Audino is still near her and she has five more level 100s on her belt. So, why is she still so scared, that her shaking legs almost feel like jelly?]
no subject
His mind works quickly, turning through the options. Perhaps it isn't too late to backpedal. His questions could have easily sprung from an assumed reaction to his race, right? Scar has never seen this girl in his life, though she seems to know him. Not just know of him. He could even go so far as to trying to play innocent...
Could, but he won't. Even that the thought would cross his mind disgusts him, not to mention that the lie could very quickly and easily come to light if a third party stepped in. But that all doesn't mean he's going to just out himself as a serial killer, either.]
I have never seen you before.
[Just going to make that clear, and see where she goes with it. His tone is calm and neutral, and he tries to put on a somewhat less unfriendly face.]
no subject
[...Or for some other reasons too, such as that duplicate of Amestris.
Okay, what is supposed to say here? There is no way in hell she's going to go through the details about her parents if she can avoid it. Can she avoid it? She'll try!]
We've met twice where I'm from.
[Let's begin with that. It's not like that has anything to do with the reasons, that she mentioned but well... ]
no subject
[Scar isn't going to be meeting anyone in the future in Amestris. He's about as dead as dead can be.
Except NOT, because now he's stuck in happy Pokémon world.
But where does that leave them? Scar has no quarrel with this "Winry," nor does he wish to make one. She just doesn't seem too thrilled to see him. Not that anyone ever is.]
no subject
[ He's from there then. She is not going to ask much, maybe she just really doesn't want to even know or open old wounds again. Maybe he doesn't have any history related to her parents there -- though yeah, not going to ask that because if he doesn't have that, then there's someone else who did it, and Winry can really, really live without those details. At least for now.
So while that is clear, she really made it obvious that she knows him and she hasn't really said much about it, yet. She's not even sure how much she wants to say. ]
I -- can't say I know your background from there, and I wouldn't even ask about details. I know them where I'm from though. [ she's not sure if she should be even saying all this, but somehow it's all just coming out. ] While I'd rather not go into details about them either, I -- It's complicated, but I guess you should at least know that I'm not going to cause you any trouble.
no subject
Not that he has a record here, but... it's a nice reassurance, if there's any truth behind it. It also gives him a clearer picture as to the nature of "their" relationship wherever Winry is from.]
And I have no quarrel with you.
