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.

Ah yeah... smart, smart! [He nods in understanding, folding a hand under his chin thoughtfully.]

That sounds great! What kind of act do you do?

[cutcrease]

Oh, you know, whatever Daredevils do.

[ She says like an afterthought. ]

Usually I just do whatever when I get up and perform but I guess I gotta think about this stuff now lmao.... But, if I were to describe an average set: a lot of death defying stunts, crowd playing, me looking really really nice. So just add you in there, ALSO looking really really nice!

[starseedling]

Wow...

[That's really the crux of all he has to say about that, though he manages to shake off the wonder enough to keep talking a few moments later.]

You must be really brave.

[cutcrease]

[ Oh.....it's been a while since someone so blatantly praised her. She's gonna soak in this for a little bit!!! ]

Well, I mean....... maybe. Gosh, when you put it that way I guess I do do a lotta work around here, what with being so Despair-inducingly cute it's Dangerous!

Are ya scared??

[starseedling]

[Oh boy if you like positive reinforcement, Steven is your guy! At least when it comes to getting praised for doing cool stunts. Though... he doesn't really understand how someone can be "despair-inducingly cute", though he doesn't question her wording.]

No way! I almost die all the time!

[cutcrease]

[ She squints her eyes, leaning in closer to the boy. It takes only five seconds before she decides to lean back and shrug, barking out a laugh. ]

I like the cut of your jib.

You sound like the perfect candidate if you have no fear of death what-so-EVER! I can’t wait to start teaching you everything I know, like what kind of colors go well with each other and how you should wear your hair if you don’t want it singed off.

[starseedling]

[He leans back a little, flushing. Well... not a complete lack of fear of death... isn't that normal...?]

I, uh... um. Okay! The colour stuff sounds fun...

[Not so much the hair singing part...]

[cutcrease]

Good. I'm sure we will be able to benefit immensely from each other during this learning process.

[ Well, she's sure she can benefit from having him around. She's pretty sure someone his age can grab a learning experience from just about anything. ]

However, if you have any last minute doubts about this arrangement, feel free to have a little time to seriously think it over. I only want serious applicants. Otherwise, I'm sure we'll be in contact. Understood?
