9th Act - Boys and girls of every age

Who: Come one, come all!
Where: Goldenrod, the Eve's Garden Circus
When: The 3rd - rest of the month
Summary: Just like always, the Circus is busy as usual... But with a bit of a spooky twist added on thanks to their current partnership with a certain Haunted House.
Rating: PG
Log:



The Circus is always bustling with activity, even on the days when the shows in the Big Top aren't on. There's plenty of stalls to enjoy besides those, after all! Games, and food, and stalls with all sorts of interesting things for sale. For those living in Goldenrod or passing through, it's no doubt quickly settled itself as a regular scene.

On the 11th, however... Just as always when the shows are promised to happen, the Circus is more bustling than usual and today there's a twist. On the 3rd, those walking past the Circus' gates will find themselves in QUITE the different atmosphere. Genuine spider webs are strung across the stalls, skulls strung up in them that seem to clack their teeth at passerby. Legions of pumpkins are sprawled throughout the area. At night, their eerie glow lights up twisting paths throughout the circus grounds. Even quite a few of the workers seem to have gotten into the spirit (possibly at their boss' badgering), and wear outfits from the simple masks to the more complex things. Those who were here for last year probably won't be surprised.

Beyond the change in atmosphere, however, there are still the things that are usually about! Food, games, and stalls selling various knickknacks can all be found relatively easy although they're joined by a few other themed goods. There's also, of course, the show that will be playing three times a day in the big tent proper! It also seems like the Litleo hoard has been released onto the grounds once again, with little bags of delicious candy tied around their necks.

One notable addition is what appears to be a small station of sorts with a rather ominous carriage that stops at it every now and then pulled by what appear to be a pair of Rapidash... only colored darkly with bones painted across their heads and what might be actual skulls acting as face covers. Well then! Perhaps you might be interested in letting it take you to the haunted house?

It's a relaxed and fun little adventure... at least, it is until things start getting strange with those weird fusioned Pokemon... The circus grounds are still open, regardless if people are changed or not, but you'll be disappointed if you're expecting any shows from underneath the big top itself. Joker has no interest in putting his performers in danger like that, you see. But then, that just might mean you'll see him wandering around for once and not run so ragged.

Well, more for the circus as a whole, but I'm sure you can make pretty good use outta it. You guys letting me set up a booth is what got me my first customers, after all.

[Once they're outside, Neku calls over Blueberry, who is guarding his stuff while he was inside. The Dragonite toddles over, and Neku takes a small dufflebag from her, laying it on the ground and opening it up

Inside are plastic bottles full of

-wow might wanna hope that's fake cuz that sure does look a lot like blood.]


I was never able to get a REALLY good red. But one of Leo and Cathrine's grandbabies came out shiny and Luke gave him to me as a gift so now I finally got the color down. I switched up the formula a little so it has more of it's original texture. Which makes REALLY good prop blood. Like, if it wasn't for the lack of smell it'd be a little worrying.

Woah!

[Holy crap Neku how many people did you murder-]

Dude, this is awesmazing, thank you! We'll really be able to use this stuff!

[Jimmy reaches into the bag to pull out one of the bottles, holding it up so he can get a better look.]

So this is all shiny Smeargle paint?

Well, the paint is more the dye. So maybe... 25% by mass? Don't worry, I didn't press him for too much.

That's still pretty cool...you'll have to thank him for me! Maybe bring him over so he can see all of the fake blood you made in action, huh?
scratchitti: (Ehhh..?)

[personal profile] scratchitti 2015-10-22 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I bet he'd like that. Nothing too scary though, he's still pretty young.
awesmazings: (☼ and the major lift)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2015-10-22 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, sure thing! We got lots of places he could go that wouldn't be as scary anyway. Thanks again though, really. It's cool of you to bring us this stuff, Neku!
