Performance and Dreamcatchers

[pipers_son]

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.

[ Okay, he'll at least look a little impressed. ]

Oh? But how is that done? What makes a fire wizard different from another sort of magician?

[dragnerd]

Huh? I...I dunno, it just kinda...happens. I mean, it's hard to say, not like there are any other fire dragonslayers I could go ask about it.

[ He would ask Igneel, but... ]

[atouts]

[ It just kind of happens. Of all the things to say... ]

And you've never thought to try and figure it out on your own? You just accept it?

[dragnerd]

[ Well, it does!! It's not like he would just put himself on the operating table to figure it out. Natsu just smiles again. ]

Yep!

[atouts]

Does normal fire not harm you, as well, or is it only the magical?

[dragnerd]

[ He laughs. ] Well, yeah! Otherwise I couldn't eat it. I dunno how the others manage it, though.

[ How one can eat - and chew - metal without losing any teeth is beyond him. ]

[atouts]

Managing to also be on fire?

[ How many fireproof magicians can there possibly be? ]

[dragnerd]

Nah, last I checked fire hurts the other dragonslayers like it does anybody else. Gajeel, though - he uses metal magic - I have no clue how he eats metal to power up without hurting himself.

[ He shrugs with a laugh. ] Too bad he's not here to ask, right? But I don't think he'd give you a straight answer anyhow.

[ Knowing him, he'd be more likely to just deck someone for pressing him about it. Or maybe he'd just leave. Gajeel's not very sociable. ]

[atouts]

I'd have to say that sounds like an incredibly unhealthy way to use magic, at least...

[ Eating fire was already pretty weird, but metal? That is most definitely not like any magic he knows. ]
