FAERIE TALES↴ Though the carnival will be performing for its guests in the first week, they are welcome to search the Athenaeum while they are off duty during that time. The manifestations of story characters will be out in full force during performance week, with animals, people, objects, and even locations growing out from various tales. Most are distracting at worst, and will be curious to check out the carnival. Some, however, can be as dangerous as they were in their stories of origin. You know what to do. ► IT'S TIME TO ROLEPLAY: The best way to deal with book ghosts is to follow their narrative to its logical conclusion - turn the tables, work the story so it ends in your favour! Naturalistic and narratively satisfying plotting will have the manifestations following your lead. However, push too hard and introduce too many plot holes, inconsistencies, or illogical plot twists, and they will reject your reality utterly, becoming quite aggressive in the process. You can also use your natural abilities and powers to fight them in a traditional sense, but in the Ringmaster's experience, it's best to fight reality benders by bending reality right back at them. If you aren't careful, it's possible to be dragged fully into a story's reality, and then things get really messed up. ► IT'S ALSO TIME TO READ: The carnival came here for a purpose, and that purpose is to research. Specifically, the Ringmaster is looking for information on the Queen's Miracles - the set of ancient fae artifacts that the Blue Rose is one of. The carnival needs these artifacts to defend itself, but nobody knows where they've been for thousands of years. That's what the books are for. However, nothing is stopping you from pursuing knowledge for personal reasons. The halls are open to your perusal, and only your heart can guide you to the book you truly seek. Check the plot post to see what's allowed, and sign up to find plot info or other important game information below. |

...they're supposed to be able to be in here but not get distracted by people food in the audience...
[She can't really improvise being the audience that well though, hence 'tempting treats in pocket' instead. Granted, she has to reward them later...]

[Feathers is a mostly good bird who wouldn't immediately stuff his face into a popcorn bag. Immediately.]
no subject
...You should make sure you have lots of popcorn, and hotdogs, and things..! Just to make sure then!
[Reira, please define 'lots'.]

[Pushing himself up, he dusts off his knees.]
Give me a few minutes, alright?

[Honestly, it's a little tricky, when he still only has one arm and a bird that has zero.... but Joker manages. He's been around the carnival for a few years, now, so he has a solid idea of where everything is kept. That's the benefit of having bounced around through the various departments, after all.]
[So, eventually, he returns with a cart packed full of quickly made popcorn (good thing that all tends to cook quickly) and a drink or two, along with some hotdogs balanced on top. hey, it all works out, right?]
I'm baaaaaack!

Now, stay still..! [Come on cats, if you can't do this, how are you going to do whatever acts the actual 'animal tamers' do!!]
no subject
Got everythin' under control...?
shall we tie off here?
[Definitely, now that she's got everything 'in place'.] Thank you, Joker..!
[The cats are definitely not in place, in about five seconds, but it's the thought and practice that counts after all.]
