Get Ready For the Show

[pipers_son]

Who: All the performers, plus any visitors
What: Time to get back into the swing of things! Nothing says "I've recovered from trauma" like learning how to plaster a smile onto your face for the crowds.
When: D1 - D5
Where: The Main Tent
Warnings: None.... Probably

As the saying goes, "All play and no work makes Jack forget how to do his job". On the bright side...

Over the radio, Joker makes a cheerful announcement for all performers to start getting back into the practice schedule with new arrivals to show up on the first day back from the moon. On the first day, he'll be lenient. No one has to be on time, but he does want them to at least make an appearance and token attempt at practice. After that, well... Show up, or you'll have an aggravatingly cheerful stage manager paying a personal visit. He bothers because he cares.

To those who have become familiar with it, the tent is outfitted with all off the usual practice equipment, and new faces will be in for a treat. There are the usual acrobatics equipment: silk ropes, the high wire, trapeze swings. Daredevils will find all sorts of things to threaten their lives with, although they'll soon find that there are magical safety precautions in place which stop the Big Tent from, say, getting set on fire. And the magician stuff? Well.... Don't hurt yourself there.

Out of the love of his heart, Joker will make sure there are bottles of water nearby, so don't be afraid to work up a sweat.

[Slowly, he lowers the pen and nods. He sounds embarrassed when he speaks.]

I am unharmed. I had not realized how quickly the Leaves of Cutting would move.

(OOC: I forgot, could you also take a look at Anghel's permission post? Thanks.)

[pipers_son]

[Ah. A bit of a fancy talker. Well alright, Joker's worked with stranger.]

Yeah, sorry about that. We're still getting a handle on them, and tryin' ta see if we can make 'em a little duller or slower. More for show than hurtin' anyone.

[Feathers flutters over, cooing in concern.]

Yer sure yer alright?

[crimsonfallenangel]

[Anghel nods.]

There is no need to fear, Arcane Seeker.

[He turns to Feathers.] Does your magic, perhaps, come from a potion from the Purveyor? Or is it from another life?

[The translation would be, did you learn that here or were you always able to do that?]

[pipers_son]

[...Well that's a new name. But he'll accept it, he guesses.]

[Feathers seems just as bewildered by the conversation as Joker is, giving another soft coo, and Joker has to speak up since his Pokemon can't do it for himself.]

Ah... He's always been able ta do it since he was just a chick.

[crimsonfallenangel]

[In Anghel's mind, Feathers is now "Avian Guardian of the Wildcard", chosen by fate to guide Joker to safety.]

It is most fortunate that I have met you both. My name is Anghel Higure, the Crimson Fallen Angel.

[More allies in the face of upcoming struggles are always welcome.]

Arcane Seeker. We are to face new challenges in a distant world, are we not? Please help me prepare for the battles that are to come.

[pipers_son]

[Now this is funny, considering his relationship with angels... Joker chuckles a little bit, even as he gives a dramatic bow.]

Well, we'll be more than glad ta assist someone who's practically kin~. [Whistling, he calls Feathers back down, letting the Dartrix circle around onto his shoulder again.] Tell us what ya need and we'll give ya our full attention!

[crimsonfallenangel]

[Anghel isn't truly an angel. He claims he is because he is not immune to the hallucinogenic pheromones that his body produces and so is constantly exposed to it's effects.]

I request the Wise Words of the Ancient Sages!

[pipers_son]

[Wise words of the ancient sages, huh...?]

Well, I can give ya some advice. You'll want ta be careful where yer flyin' here. A lot of things happen here, even when folks don't have wings.

[crimsonfallenangel]

[Anghel nods.]

I shall heed your warning. [He waits, expecting that Joker will give some a bit more advice.]

[pipers_son]

[...Not enough, huh? Definitely not the kind of angels he's used to, then. Joker has a feeling he's going to have to make some things up. Preoccupying himself with petting Feathers, he thinks a moment.]

What have ya been told about the other groups here? Like Sans' group, for example, with security.

[crimsonfallenangel]

[Anghel hangs his head.]

This knowledge has eluded me.

[pipers_son]

Aw, no need ta look down~. Why don't we take a seat in the stands, and I can tell ya about 'em?

[Him and Feathers are already fluttering over there, as a matter of fact, although it only takes a few flaps for Joker's much larger wings.]
