8th Act - Happy Anniversary, Eve's Garden Circus!

Who: Come one and all!
Where: Goldenrod
When: The weekend through the 15th to the 18th
Summary: The Eve's Garden Circus is celebrating its first anniversary!
Rating: PG
Log:

You know what's better than a regular birthday? The birthday of a circus.




Throughout the streets of Goldenrod, folks will find all sorts of colorful characters and Pokemon about. Fliers and the like have been regular eve since the Circus started up a year ago, 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.

There's even a Litleo hunt going on today! Catch one, win a prize!

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 weekend!

"Scuse me, commin' through, watch yer toes."

A brick wall wearing overalls makes his way through the staff area, head ducked, scanning the ground for something. He noticed a familiar face that seems to have been in here longer than he has.

"You see a mobile blob of disgusting cotton candy come this way?"
a_sin_for_him: (are you sure?)

"Is your sticky on the loose? Or did another one of your team have a terrible accident with concessions?"

Lust quickly glances around, assuming it's the former. Having a swirlix stuck in her hair is one of her greatest day to day fears. Especially at the moment, with her hair still pinned in a mass of curls on top of her head.
rocketralph: (pixels: error error!)

The Strongman nodded, growing visibly more frantic.

"I let Nelly out to see the sights and after she got ahold of a funnel cake, she went berserk!"
a_sin_for_him: (are you sure?)

"I swear those things can't be trusted without some sort of collar and leash apparatus. Which just sticks to them and is rendered useless in moments..."

Lust was on her feet quickly. Having her own Swirlex, she's well aware of the chaos they can cause, simply by moving among people.

"Where did you see her last?"
rocketralph: (ugh)

"Wish I'd thought a' that." Honestly, he could have used the yo-yo that was stuck to her earlier and not even have to buy one. He huffs and runs his fingers through his hair. He has to be back in the bigtop soon.

"I just lost 'er. Followed the trail of sticky candy this way but it ended suddenly."
a_sin_for_him: (seriously what the hell)

[personal profile] a_sin_for_him 2015-05-23 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh god, you don't suppose she's stuck to someone's back or some such?"

That would explain a sudden end to the sticky trail, if it were all collecting in some poor soul's shirt band. Lust quickly looked over her own shoulder, on the off chance that she had a gelatinous fluff stowaway she somehow hadn't noticed.
rocketralph: (huh?)

His eyes widened. Oh, no! NO no no that couldn't be it! Something awful could happen to h-- er SHE COULD BE BOTHERING SOMEONE. What a pain! What an awful little goo ball. Still, he scanned the crowd as they passed the staff area.

If only Ralph looked up because there was Nelly having a stand off with a couple of Pidov on top of a game stall's tent. The two flying types were cooing loudly at her as they argued over a stick of rock candy.
a_sin_for_him: (you're insane)

There were dozens of places for a Swirlix to get stuck or wander off to. Lust planted her hands on her hips, standing on her chair and scanning the crowds. Maybe under a table? God knew there was plenty of crumbs and wrappers and bits of sweets littering the ground. Nothing on the floor....

Scanning at mid-level, Lust reached into her skirt pocket and pulled out a small bag of hard candies. She shook it, eyes narrowed for any sudden movement.
rocketralph: (about that...)

Ralph looked up to Lust hopefully but her elf eyes could not see Nelly anywhere.

Meanwhile, as the Pidov was trying to unstick its wing from the Swirlix's horrible fluffy body, one of Nelly's ear perked up. That sounded...delicious. The cotton candy pokemon abandoned the grape rock candy and hopped to the edge of the tent flap, dragging that poor pigeon behind her.

"Y'really think that'll work?"
