private Cirque de l'Amour RP

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

Flame opened the door to his trailer and then trotted to a small closet next to the bathroom. In the closet was a box of water bottles, He put a few into a plastic bag then flew back to his change room.

 

 

Diamond got seats about two row's back from the stage and eagerly awaited the oncoming show.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Bob began to panic, he began to thrash around violently hoping to escape from the box that he was in. He hated how those stallions treated him, he didn't care if he was different from other ponies but they didn't need to go and do this to him. He promised himself that he'll go back to his home in manehatten, that's if he ever gotten out of the box that he was in .

"Well...he was...nice," Chamois said.  "As were the...twins," she said, continuing her cautious tone.  They were.  I guess.  Well, I don't know about the twins but Flame seemed nice.  Chamois looked at Dusk, seeing him watching her closely.  I want to go back to my tent, she thought tiredly.  "You play music, then?" she asked, interested despite herself.

Sand was found by circus employees curled up in a ball inside of the stallion restrooms. Though a little pessimistic about the abilities of any pony who claimed to be a magician while puking his guts out, they eventually decided to get him cleaned up and over to the Circus Master's office. Once the grime and disorientation had been dealt with, he shaped up to be a rather personable young stallion who indeed had many tricks inside of every pocket. While a little reluctant to sign his name on any sort of contract, the magician was eventually coaxed into a deal by his manager, a chirpy little pony that went by the name of Coal Duster. Both seemed to be law abiding enough, so Sand entered into the circus as an intermission act, performing his art to keep the audience hyped while the other acts were prepping.

 

Finding that there was sufficient time before the day's show started, Sand was alloted a small trailer that was primarily used as storage when no one needed it. This was situated by the Rag Tag twin's own camper, just across from another alicorn whom had joined the Circus on the same day by word of mouth. When Sand's bags were retrieved so he could move in, he spoke to the Circus Master about appearing in the show about to happen. Just as his staff were not sure about letting a puking pony into the circus, the Circus Master was pessimistic about letting him go on with seemingly no preparation. A few short minutes later, after a sample of what he proposed to do was given, Sand was ushered into the waiting area for the acts, sporting a new outfit.

 

Instead of his previous travelling cloak and vest, his attire was all swirls of color. The new cloak that was draped across his back was a mixture of mottled browns, greys, and soft tans. From the audience, if you were not looking directly at it, you would only see a fleeting glimpse of movement with each step. This, coupled with a talent for unseen movement, allowed for a seemingly invisible entrance. Underneath was an elaborate costume that was rather simple when seperated into its components. A dark blue pinstripe vest was coupled with shiny black boots that had silver buckles. His hind legs were clad in a light grey trousers. A small flat topped hat, the same color as his leggings, would sit atop his head when it was not hidden by the cloak.

 

Coal Duster stood nearby, quietly whispering with the stallion with what time they had.

[Descant 1,898]

((OOC:Sorry, sorry, I've been outrageously busy for the past few days. Not to mention that school is starting back up.))

 

Even though Rockshire was being slammed like crazy in the dodg'em cars, she still couldn't help but laugh at each hit. Once the session was over, her mane looked like a tattered mess.

The dodg'em cars slowed to a halt. The ride was over. Descant hopped over the side of the car, and walked around the car, holding out a hoof to Rockshire, to help her out of the car. When she took it and got out, he withdrew his hoof and looked a little uncomfortable as they walked to the exit. (Sorry for brief control of Rockshire. I'll edit it out if you like.)

 

 

Rag and Tag had already applied the small amount of makeup they needed, and were stretching out for their performance in their changing room.

"well, i don't really see a point in leaving for lunch. How about we go and get a corn dog?" asked Electro Dash, as she flew next to fuse. Along the way she noticed Descant still hanging around with the other mare. She went over to talk.

"hey. How'd your little chat go on?"

"hey. How'd your little chat go on?"

Descant sighed, and his shoulders relaxed a little bit. "It went alright." He gestured at Rockshire. "Dash, this is Rockshire. Rockshire, this is Electro Dash." He was slightly apprehensive... that Rockshire would immediately dislike Dash... Jealousy seemed to be an unfortunate tendency of hers...

[Undyne 1,483]

Rockshire looked a little uneasy with meeting this new mare for a second. And a bit dizzy from the cars... But she extended a hoof to her. "Nice to, uh... Meet you, Electro Dash...", she said quite shyly.

 

"Sure, a corn dog would be ni-- Wait, where'd you go?", Fuse questioned as he turned to see Das talking with two other ponies. He trotted up to them, back in the emotionless trance he's used to.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

@, 

 

When Flame got back to his room he put the water bottles into a little bar fridge then started trotting over to the backstage area when he heard yelling and banging. *Wha...What is that ?* He thought, Following the sounds to a large box. "Oh no. Hang On, I Am Going To Get You Out." He called, trotting over to the box and flicking the three latches that were keeping it closed. Then he pushed open the lid.

Electro Dash shook Rockshires hoof and chuckled "loojes like those dodgems got to you eh? Happens every time" He then noticed Short Fuse come alon. "oh yeah. While you Descant were meeting old friends, I made a new one. I'd like you to meet short fuse here."

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Bob heard a voice from some where it sounded like a stallion, Bob froze up in fear at the thought of those stallions had came back to finish him. Bob slowly let out a soft whimper as the box was being opened , he began to speak in frightened voice much like a foal would."Please,don't hurt me".

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

@, 

 

"Why would I want to hurt you ?" He asked, Holding out his hoof to help the pony out of the box. "What happened to you ? How did you get in there ?" He asked. *Well...Its not every day you find some random colt laying in a box.* He thought, giving the pony a questioning look.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Bob took his hoof ,all he wanted to do was go home but first he had to answer a few questions that the stallion gave him. He began to speak but his voice went a little shaky at first."I, was placed in there by a gang of stallions". Bob made sure that his answer was short so that he could be on his way.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

@, 

 

"Oh...Um, Ok ?" He said, Taking a couple steps back from the box. "Are you ok ? Your not hurt or anything are you ?" He asked. *Why would a gang put him in a box ? In a circus ? Oooooh* He thought. "Wait a sec...Is this some sort of prank or something ? Or are you part of the act ?" He asked. 

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Bobs' eyes winded with anger but he tried to remain claim,but his voice showed his anger."You think that was an prank or that i was part of the act? tell me does this look like a prank to you"? Bob pointed to his eyes' to show that they were both blackened from being punched.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

@, 

 

"Yea, It does look like a prank. Whenever I get pranked by my friends here...I almost always end up with a bruise. Anyway, Sorry for asking. I gotta go prepare to get on stage." Flame smiled. "I'll catch ya later Box Pony." He said, Trotting towards the door and out towards the stage.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Bob dismiss the stallion and started to walk right out of the room , he needed to claim down from all of this as soon as possible. He felt like he was going to go into shock but the only thing that kept him from doing that was his job,he didn't want his manger to find out about him misbehaving.

[The-Master 1,176]

Star was wandering aimlessly, something he found himself doing quite often. He knew that he probably had missed a great deal, but he was never to interested in the circus. Bunch of quirks and lunatics doing flips for peanuts. The thought amused him.

 

Well, he couldn't study today with this kind of commotion, so might as well make the most of it. He bought himself some cotton candy, promptly tossing it aside when he remembered he hated it. He decided to acquire tickets to the next show, just for educational purposes to see what all the fuss was about obviously.

 

There were plenty of other ponies to be seen but Star made contact with none of them. Social interaction wasn't necessary nor was it welcome. It's a long story that I don't care to repeat. Never the less, Star looked across the Big Top to see what looked to be the access to backstage, a sign clearly marked 'Crew Only'. That was all the invitation he needed, at last something interesting to occupy his time.

 

Curiosity was a unreliable guide, especially when 'Keep Out' signs are involved and 'Long Drop'. Star was a quick learner, but he always seemed to be sticking his nose where it was not needed purely because he wanted to. So long as he was happy then that was all that mattered. Poking his head through the backstage entrance he felt no sense of wrongdoing, simply the need to go on further. Hiding behind a nearly crate he looked out at the ponies that eagerly readied for the show.

 

And damn did he see an odd bunch of characters.

And damn did he see an odd bunch of characters.

Short Fuse wasn't paying attention to the time, and before he could introduce himself, he saw a clock, showing the time for him to get ready.

 

"Dang it, I gotta get ready... Sorry. Hope to talk to you later. See you in the crowd."

 

He ran off towards the big tent, but instead, he took a shortcut through the crew's entrance, and before he knew it, he went and crashed into another pony, causing his wig to hurtle in another direction.

 

"Ow.. Sorry about that...", he said as he picked himself up. "Wait. Are you even in the show?"

[The-Master 1,176]

What a clumsy sort, should really focus more on where he's going. Star picked himself back up off the ground and brushed the dirt off his coat. He flung the old brown scarf back over his shoulder as he looked to see who it had been to crash into him.

 

What an odd one, and what happened to his horn? No matter, just think up something to get you out of here scott free. You've seen enough freaks for today.

 

"No, I seem to have become a bit lost on my way to the restrooms. I'll be off now. Have a good show." He tried to put on his best act for him, looking towards the exit as he slowly shuffled in it's direction.

[MelancholicMemory 2,027]

"Well...he was...nice," Chamois said.  "As were the...twins," she said, continuing her cautious tone.  They were.  I guess.  Well, I don't know about the twins but Flame seemed nice.  Chamois looked at Dusk, seeing him watching her closely.  I want to go back to my tent, she thought tiredly.  "You play music, then?" she asked, interested despite herself.

"Yeah, I play lots of instruments, and I love music. I play formal shows for the circus playing traditional circus-type stuff, but some of the other musicians and I also play more modern music here as well. We have a sort of ska kind of sound, I guess. In fact the concert I have later is one of those," he explained. "Speaking of which, my concert should be starting soon. There's no rush, but we should probably start heading that way. Do you want to see the show?" He hoped she would say yes so much!

[Feather Gem 968]

Not really like I can make him miss his concert, and sounds interesting.  I'd like to see what this stallion can do.  Chamois shrugged a shoulder.  "Music is art.  And I, for one, love art," Chamois said, smirking.  She waved her hoof in a random direction.  "Lead the way."

[MelancholicMemory 2,027]

"I like your attitude! Chamois. Let's go!" He led her past the freakshow to the grassy area where he would be playing. He set her up with one of the good seats in the front row. "Well, Chamois, the concert's going to start soon. I'm going to get ready. I hope you like the music, and it would  be great if we could hang out some more after the show." He winked at her playfullyand walked off. He began to get ready, looking out into the crowd to see if Flame andRag were there yet. "He probably has to finish up his own show first. I'm sure they'll make it in time," he thought.

When Flame was called he flew out above the audience, leaving a long trail of fire. He then landed on the stage and placed the straps on his wings. The wheel was lowered from the ceiling, a few other ponies on the stage got it spinning and after a couple rotation's Flame grabbed the side of the wheel and was pulled into the air, Leaving a long trail of Fire.

 

 

Diamond sat in the audience happily watching the performances.

[Descant 1,898]

Electro Dash shook Rockshires hoof and chuckled "loojes like those dodgems got to you eh? Happens every time" He then noticed Short Fuse come alon. "oh yeah. While you Descant were meeting old friends, I made a new one. I'd like you to meet short fuse here."

Descant made to extend his own hoof to shake with Short Fuse when Short Fuse ran off, leaving him hanging. He couldn't help chuckling. 

 

"He seemed nice."

 

 

Rag and Tag had finished stretching, were now wearing their outlandish clown outfits, and were simply awaiting their turn to go on.
