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!

[SURELY NO ONE WILL HOLD THAT AGAINST HIM.

Especially not this guy, who's about to get handed the giant-ass stuffed lion of his dreams by a guy who's definitely clean but sure doesn't look it.]


Yeah! Well, shit, now I almost feel like I have to go a turn just so I'm not the odd man out.

[He says, flashing a grin.]
lieutenantantichrist: (game's the same)

[Blake poses proudly with the hammer. Steve gives the giant-ass stuffed lion an appreciative sniff, then snubs her approval of his taste.

Winning prizes for somebody is one of those cheesy-ass things guys do for girlfriends in shitty 80s movies. Sure you can win one for your buddy too. Who says you can't?

He offers the hammer to him.]
You can give it a shot if you feel like. It's no cakewalk, though. [He casts his eye over Dietrich's lanky build.] You might not have the shoulders for it.
aufsassig: monetarily I'm pretty much set, actually (DEVIL ★ i'm only bankrupt in morality)

[personal profile] aufsassig 2015-05-22 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, watch it. I can still kick your ass, old man.

[Laughing, he offers the lion to Steve with one hand as he reaches for the hammer with the other.]

Hang on to this for me, will you, sweetheart? Somebody thinks I'm gonna need both hands for this one.
lieutenantantichrist: (tweedy impertinence)

Ahh sorry missed the notif!

[In the spirit of giving a buddy shit] I wouldn't be so cocky. Us old bastards have tricks up our sleeves.

[Steve keeps a hold on her Shaymin with one arm and Dietrich's lion with the other. She is a pink spot buried under a mountain of stuffed animal.

Blake folds his arms and step back.]
All right, tough guy, show me what you can do.
aufsassig: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES (CONTENT ★ blah blah minds like honey)

[personal profile] aufsassig 2015-05-28 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Steve is clearly exactly as she should be, then. A most natural state of being.]

All right, let's see if I still remember how to do this.

[He hefts up the hammer, giving it a few idle swings to test its weight — and then abruptly and without warning gives a little hop and brings it crashing down onto the machine.

It's more of a theatrical performance than a concerted attempt to ring the bell, but the slider's also not particularly high and he's putting a fair amount of force on his hit, so up it goes toward the bell.]
lieutenantantichrist: (all in the game)

[Blake expects something a lot less confident than that. He may be imagining things, but there's a hint there of somebody who knows how to hit. Carter is suddenly hit by an odd idea: it'd be interesting to see how Dietrich handles himself in a fight.

A low whistle comes from between Blake's teeth.]
Not bad.
