Rating: PG
Log:

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!

[Yaminah pokes out from behind Scar's legs. She's clinging to an Aron plushy that's as big as she is. Spoils from the game area, no doubt. The tiny bear toddles to the newcomers and cries a 'hello' of her own.

Scar crouches down as well to take a closer look.]

How long have you had them?

[He's genuinely curious. That someone so young would be collecting and training these mysterious chimera-like creatures comes as a bit of a surprise, even though this world seems to completely revolve around them.]

[red_roses]

Only about a month or so....I hatched Razzle and Lief from eggs myself!

[envy_the_sinners]

[The mention of egg hatching catches Scar's interest. He's heard and read about it, but hasn't taken a moment to stop by the breeding center and look around, yet. "Lief," he's willing to assume, is the Chikorita, so he reaches out to pat the grass-type on the head.]

Do they bond to you as a guardian figure?

[...Scar, why you ask boring questions.]

[red_roses]

I think they sort of see me as their mother....but if anything they're the ones that guard me. Pokemon are so strong!

[envy_the_sinners]

They are.

[Scar isn't going to disagree with that. How they can possibly possess the abilities they do, he can't begin to imagine. They grow so quickly, too.]

Were you born in this world, then? Or were you pulled from your home?

[red_roses]

No, I came here from a different world. It was scary at first.

[envy_the_sinners]

There are worse places to be.

[...Once again, Scar, not the right thing to say, here. But in all honesty, a child is better off growing up here than in his own broken world.]

[red_roses]

Uh-huh. [She's seen a fair share.] It's a lot nicer here.

[envy_the_sinners]

[Nicer. Which means she has been pulled from someplace significantly worse. The corners of Scar's mouth droop as he stands up to full height once again.]

I'm glad you're safe, then.

[red_roses]

Oh, thank you. That's so nice...we don't even know each other.

[envy_the_sinners]

[Scar only shrugs, a touch awkwardness in the gesture.]

It isn't usual, to see someone of your age on her own.

[red_roses]

Oh! Um, well, I'm with Garry...I guess I got too far ahead....

[envy_the_sinners]

[Scar pauses for a moment.]

I believe I've spoken with Garry.

[red_roses]

Oh, that's good! Garry's very nice, even if he does talk more like a woman.

[envy_the_sinners]

Like a... woman?

[Scar raises an eyebrow at that. He's only texted with the man, and can't parse what this girl might mean.]

[red_roses]

[She nods.] If you talked to him on the phone you'd never know he was a boy!

[envy_the_sinners]

Some men are just like that, I suppose. Is he your brother?

[red_roses]

No...he's...a very good friend.

[envy_the_sinners]

I see. [Scar straightens to full height, preparing to leave.]

You're lucky he's here with you.

[red_roses]

I really am....
