Circus RP
Be whatever you like, acrobat, animal act, clown, contortionist etc. I am the Ringmaster :) but I'll make up more ocs :D it's a gypsy type thing. They're kind to the animals, no ranting about animal rights. Go to an animal welfare page.
Akala:*making a spice blend for Marcus, now the chief cook that his wife was gone*
*crushing them with a bowl and stick, inhaling the divine smell*

Ela: *scoffs* We barely have a conversation and when we do, it ends with me getting kicked out!

Akala:Open your mouth, and point your head in his direction. *sees her serious face and shakes her head* I don't know. You seemed to be doing well together in practices I've seen.

Adam:*sharpening his knives, the familiar zizz of the metal on whetstone soothing and rhythmic*

Misha: *violently hammers nails into wood, building a stage prop*
Akala:*unconvinced, sure that people only say "I'll be fine" when they're not* If you start feeling destroyed, come tell me. *gives a smile, standing up*

Misha: If you ever meet one, let me know. *petting Cuddle* We make so little already. My father is saving to visit home, but we're never going to make it. I'll be fine for now.

Akala:*a slight crease forming between her eyebrows* If you are being someone else's firewood, that's a noble intention. Though not very sustainable if you want to continue without burning out. Why don't you rest? I'm sure there are plenty of performers willing to chip in to give you a break. *hoping she was telling the truth*
on October 12, 2014
Misha: I know, but I don't even get to perform. I build props and lift and set the trapeze, but I never get to have fun. I've stopped trying to pretend it will happen. I work all day and then when I have time to practice hand balancing, I am too tired. I stay strong for Natalia, but I am destroying myself.

Akala:I know Adam won't hurt you. He still beats himself up over his aunt, he thinks he caused her heart attack by the pressure of being a target. It's nonsense, he knows inside, but he can't help thinking it. *talking up to the sky, blue and white blending like sea and foam*

Ela: *shrugs lying down onto the grass with a sigh* At least if I go, I'll go doing what I love.

Adam:*nods, scraping back his chair* Thanks. *trying to remember that detail, putting it away in his mind* See you. *walks off*

Eli: *laughs* I can imagine! *thinking about it* Well, I can promise you no matter what, El won't scream or show pain. In fact, watch out for that, she will never show you when she's hurting outside or in. *shrugs pushing away the serious note* I'm sure you two will be great.
on September 27, 2014
Adam:One of the horse back walker girls offered to take her place, but she was too flighty. I kept worrying I was going to throw and she'd try dodge it, straight into the path of the blade. *that particular practice session coming back to him* And she was very, VERY keen. *the squeals and giggling still buzzing in his memory like an irritating fly*

Akala:*head fuzzy, waking up slowly*

*gets up, getting changed and heading outside to fetch water to wash*

Akala:*bursts into Marcus's caravan* Eli broke his leg and now he wants to perform even though the show's in three days and-
Marcus:*holds up a hand* Whoa, whoa WHOA. Start again, and chew your words before vomiting them up on me. *concentrating hard*
Akala:It's a long story.....basically I went to go get my hoop, broke the net and made Eli break his leg. But he insists on performing, because he thinks you'll fire him.
Marcus:*draws brows together, processing* Well.....
Akala:Marcus? See More▼
Marcus:He does have to perform. It's why he's here.
Akala:WHAT!?!? *hands fly open* But-
Marcus:He's a performer. He knew the risks.
Akala:Still!!! He could hurt-
Marcus:*cuts her off* He could hurt himself any day of the week. So could you, being a tiger's chew toy. If he's willing to perform, I won't stop him.
Akala:*bristles at being called a chew toy, turning and flying out*
Marcus:*sighs*
