Performance and Dreamcatchers

Who: Joker, those working entertainment, and whoever wants to do fun arts and crafts
When: The day after the orientation, and then after the ringmaster's announcement
Where: The Big Tent and one of the side stages, respectively
What: Joker gets his performing ducks all in a row, and then does an arts and crafts corner. As you do. Mingle log!

At around ten in the morning, as he told a few other workers and anyone who'd been listening in on the walkie talkies, Joker starts to radio in those who are working under him to meet up in the big top. Hope you had breakfast and not a hangover! Of course, for anyone who tries not to attend, Joker will cheerfully hunt them down and bother them into going.

Sorry, mandatory, you know how it is.

It's later in the day, after the ringleaders' own announcement, that eventually Joker makes another of himself, this time to the general channel. It's an invitation to one of the side stages to make dreamcatchers together, for anyone who still craves company or simply doesn't know what the hell a dreamcatcher even is. Along with that, Joker has taken it upon himself to make sure signs advertising this are plastered all over the carnival.

He drew them himself. Please appreciate the scribbled stars.

[Too bad that isn't happening any time soon, at least with Susan. He actually only looks more excited as he has another idea.]

Oh, you should cast that one spell that makes animals be able to talk! Then you could have a talking animal show, that would be even better!

It takes days to cast that spell, and it permanently alters the animal.

It's cool, though.

It's not for performances.

Okay, but, what if you found one animal you really liked and could perform with? Then maybe you could do it just for that one!

[He wrinkles his nose. He's still not fond of the idea, but at least that makes sense.]

And then what? Have them tell jokes?

I mean, that would be pretty funny... But I don't know what they could do, you'd have to ask them! Since then they'd be able to tell you. They could help you plan it together.

I guess... But what if they don't want to perform, what if they just want to go back to their own lands?

[Then an animal with human level intelligence would be trapped here just like they were, except probably without the possibility of returning home.]

It's a bit risky.

[He hadn't thought about that.]

I just thought it would be cool.

[personal profile] mylastchance 2016-11-17 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Damn it, don't get sad because of the logical flaws in the idea.]

Well, it would be really entertaining.

[personal profile] wild_magic 2016-11-17 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Right? And, that's what makes it a good performance.

[personal profile] mylastchance 2016-11-17 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but i think just talking to it with magic instead of making it smart would probably be best.

[personal profile] wild_magic 2016-11-17 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess so. [He still thinks it would be cooler if it could talk, too, but he knows Lauren is probably right.]
