Scarlett blushed at his beautiful comment and walked more into the tent."Me beautiful? Have you looked in a mirror at yourself lately?" She asked with a sly smile since he deffinetly was good looking. Her eyes couldn't help but glance at his chest. "I haven't met her yet but I saw her earlier. I could help her since its good to get a few tips every now and then.." She watched as he did all his flips. She thought what he did was way better then her high rope tricks. She watched as he had his legs support him and was hanging. She had always thought of him as a good person, but never talked with him much from shyness. Though he was fun to be around. She heard the acts start to start but since she was last she wasn't in such a big hurry.
((What act are we on?)) |
Adam: Adam stood there embarrassed that he ran into her. He helped her up though and listened to her many questions. Adam smiled a little. "I'm not looking for anything or anyone, I just didn't want to be late, I'm not hurt, and I hope you aren't either, and having you help me with my act would be a pleasure." Adam looked into her changed face. He could still tell who she was, but her looks were so different. Amazing. Maybe Mellie not being in her tent was a good thing after all.....Oh! I didn't tell Cire yet. "Cire, Mellie wasn't in her tent when I was there so I'm not sure where she is right now. That's another reason why I was in a rush, I was waiting outside her tent for so long that I didn't realize what time it was. I'm pretty sure that she's fine......on her own I mean." Mellie was almost completely out of the picture for Adam now. He felt like it was a good thing too thankfully. Adam now remebered the circus again. "Oh...uh, I haven't told you what to do for my act yet have I? But first, I want to know if youhave any ideas, then I'll tell you mine. If we like each others, then we can mix them somehow. I know a little short notice to be thinking of ideas now but, it will be fun together." After saying all that he tried to think of ideas of what they could do together as a team. Since she was an animal, Adam's animals would listen to her right? This wuld such a fun act. |
Cire laughed heartily, showing the pointy teeth she would probably never lose how many human her form would be. Well, except for the full human form... But she wouldn't be able to get out of that one. ''Okay and okay, glad you aren't hurt and no I'm not either, glad to hear it would be but I meant the preparation since you're up next! '' She grinned, walking over towards the lions since he was the next in line to surprise the audience. And the lions couldn't appear in their cages after all. ''Mellie's in the audience, I meant to tell you but I got... Distracted. And indeed, she's with some others so she should be okay right now.'' The black haired woman answered, smiling softly as she unlocked the cages. ''Do they need to wear something decorative? And I'm sure I could think of some ideas later on, but not for now, right now we're occupied by a couple of hunters in the audience. Which makes me a worried and slightly occupied spirit'' She said softly, brushing her hand through the mane of a lion. ''Good luck with your act, I'm sure you'll succeed at making the audience have fun Adam!'' She grinned, sticking up one thumb to empower her words.
|
Adam: Adam was encouraged by her thumbs up. It was nice of her. And no more worrying if Mellie was all right. That felt nice too. He looked down at his lions. I guess I forgot to put lions costume on. Maybe Cire can help me. Adam looked back at Cire. "Hey can you maybe help me....you know....with the lions and their outfits?" Adam said pointing towards their outfits. They were very simple. All the lions had black and red top hats with one feather coming out the top. For their feet, the lions wore thick red anklets with a black bowtie on each of them. They were all comfortable with their things also. He wouldn't make them wear something they didn't like. Anyway, Adam picked up the outfits and put them on one of the Lions. "See. It's supposed to look like this." Adam took a few steps to the Lion that Cire was petting and pet the mane too. He smiled. His animals always made him happier or cheered him up. He looked at Cire and her black hair. She would always look the same to him no matter what type of person she could make herself. |
((Hey Holleh you have to post your act^^ You're up next! The circus is waiting for you lol.))
|
Lucifer smiled at Scarlett and dove down into the net. For a second, he lay there, then groaned. "I'm after Adam..." he said, then hopped to the ground. Walking near Scarlett, he smirked and stopped. Her face was red, obviously. Reaching over, he stroked her cheek softly and leaned down to give her a soft peck on the cheek. "Wish me luck, my love," he whispered. With that, he walked away, putting his hair up in a loose pony-tail. Scarlett was a beautiful woman, but he had no chance with her. As she walked, he thought about his act. He was going to start out on the highest swing, then work his way down slowly. He wasn't as nervous as he was on the first day, but he knew the fall to the net was longer than usual. Taking deep breaths, he walked in through the back of the tent, accidentally bumping into Rythen. "Oh, hey man," he said, then waited for Adam to start. He knew Mellie wasn't going to perform...Even he didn't want to the very first time.
|
"Good luck Lucifer." She said softly, watching him leave. She knew that to be with someone like Lucifer you had to be more than beautiful. You had to be radiant. Which she lacked. But the compliments and his kiss obviously made her smile. She walked out of his training tent and took a seat in a small area that all the circus people could watch the others from. She eagerly wanted to see everyone's act, especially Lucifer's now. She leaned back in her chair and crossed her left leg over her right, looking to where Adam was since he was supposed to begin his act. Her teal eyes scanned the faces in the crowds. Some looked happy, others full of excitement. She remembered that as a child she loved everything about the circus, except the clowns. They just creep her out.
|
Rythen moved out of the way when Lucifer bumped into him. "No problem." He turned back to watch the show and watch Ahanna and Mellie. "Good luck when it is your turn."
|
Lucifer grinned as he watched Rythen stare out at Ahanna and the new girl. "Taking a liking to her?" he asked, leaning on a pole. He watched the new girl, and licked his lips. She looked delicious and delectable, but he knew if he tried anything, his ass would be trash. He watched the girl laugh and watch everyone, like she knew something was going to happen, which made him watch her more. She looked slightly schizophrenic, in a way, the way she was watching everyone and everything around her. "I personally think she looks like a tart, how she's always giggling and having fun. It's like she knows nothing about the hunters," Lucifer said, glaring slightly at her. "Now, Scarlett...That's a real women." His grin reappeared. His mind was still slightly on Doll, though. She wasn't a woman, but she sure was beautiful. Slowly, he yawned big, then put on a necklace. It was the necklace his mother told him to give to his true love, so she could live forever, just as he could.
|
Cire nodded, smiling as she got her fingers out of the lion's mane and moved towards the decoratives. They were indeed very simple, and looked quite... Wild. Tribal, if that was a description for them. Not too exaggerated, that would make them lose their dangerous appeal, and make them seem more like an... Acessory. ''The outfits fit the lions very well, not taking away their charm. Often people tend to decorate animals too many, which makes the natural appeal fade away... Very well chosen indeed.'' She said softly, brushing her finger along a feather, her smile broadening as she picked up a few anklets. ''I'll put on their anklets and you their top hats, be sure not to forget the whip when starting your act. When hurrying you often forget stuff.'' She joked, sticking out her tongue knowing he wouldn't forget the little attribute, at which she put the anklet on the animal in front of her raising it's paw so she could put it on. ''Now, off you go Adam, they are all anxious to see you taming these dangerous creatures'' She grinned, allowing her eyes to turn blue and black again quickly for the dramatic effect.
((Holleh, you may godmod Cire a little to get Adam's act going ^-^)) |
Rythen looked back at Lucifer. "I like her well enough. I just don't want anything to happen to them." He had gone back to looking at them but when Lucifer continued he looked back at him. "She is friendly and has a feeling of innocence. Scarlett is a very nice girl. She was kind enough, or mean enough, to help me across her practice wire earlier. I still think all of you high acts are crazy." He laughed.
|
"You know that Adam kid has a crush on the new girl, right?" he asked, shifting his eyes towards the man. He was hoping to raise his anger. One thing Lucifer was great at, was taunting and teasing. Slowly, Lucifer walked up behind Rythen and placed one hand on his shoulder, and draped the other arm around his other shoulder. He rested his chin on Rythen's shoulder, and whispered into his ear, "You better snatch her up before he does, or at least..." he looked at Rythen. "Before she looses interest in you. You may have the looks...But if you continue going on like that..." Lucifer ran his fingers across Rythen's chest and grinned wide, his white teeth sharpened at the ends.
|
Rythen twisted out of Lucifer's grasp turning to face him. He crossed arms before speaking. "Adam can like who ever he wishes. And I don't need to snatch anyone up. If she wants to be with him that is fine." He smirked for a moment then leaned in close to Lucifer putting a light hold on his waist. "Anyways, I don't know why everyone thinks I'm after any of the women here. I have a perfect one already I do not want." He kissed him on the cheek before winking and standing back.
|
Lucifer smirked and tugged on Rythen's hair, pulling him close. "Is that so?" he spoke slowly, his fingernails trailing down Rythen's neck, leaving small, but visible, scratches. As they bled, Lucifer gathered the blood with his thumb and licked it. "You're delicious, by the way, but I think..." he stopped, letting go of the man's hair, "I think, you know where my tent is." Softly, he stroked Rythen's cheek and smiled. "Just don't come tonight...I might have a certain lady over," he grinned wider than before. It was true, he had a thing for men, but when women got all hot, their blood was the most amazing thing that had ever touched Lucifer's tongue. "Unless...You disagree with that, hmm? Just say you do...And I'll have you over instead of her.." he watched Rythen, his eyes trailing the man's face structure.
|
Rythen rubbed his neck. He really hadn't expected that. "You might be good looking and fine with nothing more, but I like my partners to have more substance. Someone who actually likes me. Have fun with your woman tonight, but play nice." He looked back over at Ahanna. "You also might want to remember that there are three hunters in that crowd right now. I have a feeling there might not be time for fun tonight."
|
Lucifer rolled his eyes and looked into the crowd. "Three against all of us," he said, and stared at the new girl. He envied her. No reason whatsoever to, but he did. "And, by the way..." he paused, looking at Rythen. Such a beautiful man. And he was kind, which made everything better. "Who ever said I didn't like you?" He pulled the hairtie out of his hair and shook his hair out. "I'm not so absurd as to go after a man or woman whom I do not like," he admitted, sighing softly. Just because he was dark and quiet, didn't mean he had no feelings whatsoever. Everyone's so judgmental nowadays. He pushed his hair behind his ear and turned back to the crowd.
|
"They probably will not do anything but not all of us having any powers. All it would take is for one of them to pull out a gun and shoot us. They managed to kill my entire town but a handful in under an hour with only ten of them." He sighed, things were always so complicated.
He looked at Lucifer. "I have a hard time figuring out if emotions are true or not. And I'm glad to hear that. I don't think there are many people in this camp that could deal with having their emotions played with." He reached over and touched the man's hair. "I've always liked dark hair. People think to highly of mine." He dropped his hand and looked back out at the crowd. ((sorry got to go for a couple hours)) |
"I'm sorry to hear that," Lucifer spoke, his voice cracking slightly. "You must have had a lovely town to live in. Those bastards just love themselves too much." When Rythen touched his hair, it brought a smile to his face. "I treasure my hair...I would never cut it...I find myself with short hair quite unattractive," he admitted, dropping his head. A yawn escaped his lips, as his hands stretched high above his head. "So tiring..." he muttered, then stared at the ground. Whole town...? Eliminated? By -humans-? 'That's like...A dozen ants taking out eighty flies...' He hung his head and sighed softly. "I wish they'd just...Disappear."

OOC This has MELLIE in it by the way!
Adam: Adam laughed when she stuck her tongue out and nodded his head. What she said sounded like what a mother would say, but Adam wouldn't know abut that since.......he basically had no mother. He grabbed the top hats and placed them on each of the Lions. "And I agree with about the 'clothes' for the animals. They're plain but not too plain, and yes, they are exotic, but that's what makes it fun. Especially the feather. I chose that part myself." He looked at the curtain with excitement then back at Cire. "Well, I guess I'm on. Wish me luck......Cire." Adam said softly with a little smile. He picked up his long and luscious whip and whispered in the Lion's ear that Cire was just petting. When he stopped whispering, the Lion licked Cire on the arm happily. Adam laughed. Now it was time to go. He signaled all the Lions to form in a neat line. Adam stuck his hand out the curtain and whipped his whip so loud that the whole audience could hear it. Everyone jumped in shock. Ha ha. Adam's whole body was still behind the curtain. He waved at Cire then walked out with two Lions walking next to him. "Welcome!" Adam shouted to the crowd whipping his whip again. The two Lions roared with feeling. Then one by one the Lions came out. Just to amaze and scare the audience, Adam whistled and each Lion went through the aisles of people. just to make sure people wouldn't think that they were going to die, they sat down calmly and looked at everyone. Adam sent one of the Lions to Mellie. He had a note in its top hat. It carefully dropped the note in her lap and walked back down to Adam when he whistled again. (The letter will be posted at the bottom) Adam madly whippedthe whip once again and the Lions immediately stacked themselves up to make stairs. He smirked and walked up to the top Lion. The audience clapped. Adam snapped loudly. All at once, the Lions turned themselves around with Adam still on top. He walked down them calmly. He raised his hands up and one by one the Lions roared different notes. For the last thing, he decided to do the most classic Lion act. Jumping through a ring of fire. Hm....simple task for them. "Here's a classic act done only by Lion Tamers!" Adam waved his hands and the Lions pulled out the rings themselves. But he sent one to get the "Lighter". Since Adam loved his animals so, it would be fake fire that the audience would see as real fire. Thanks to Emily, she made him that since it was, after all, an illusion. But of course, the Lions could jump through real fire but Adam didn't want to risk hurting them if something went wrong. Anyway, each Lion jumped through at least two rings at a time. The audience was amazed at how many rings some of the Lions could jump. It was unbelieveable. The act was just about over now, it was always meant to be short. While the Lions kept jumping on their own, Adam went back stage and grabbed two baby Lions and walked back to the crowd. He walked to a little girl that looked like she was pretty interested in the Lions. He held out the baby and she was so happy. Adam placed it in her lap and she stroked it so lovingly. After a minute, he did the same with some other kids and they enjoyed it so much. Now it was over. Adam walked back to the center of the stage withall the Lions lined up. They all bowed with Adam at the same time. Even the baby Lions. The audience clapped and clapped."Thank you!" He walked backstage where Cire still hopefully was. The Lions followed behind in a "V" shape. Sadly, his act was over now. "Mellie, Before all the performances started, Cire asked me to visit you and see if you had a costume for tonight. So I went to your tent and waited until the circus acts started. I'm sorry but I went in your tent to see if you were there......and you weren't. I got so emotional that I threw your lamp against the wall and it shattered everywhere. I will get that up but, I feel bad about it now and I wanted to apologize and tell you that I......well.....like you. I know it's stupid to say that when I barely got to know you but still, it's hard to get rid of feelings. I mean get rid of them because, it seems as if someone else likes you and I didn't think that you fall for someone like me. I wish.....but not everything works out the way we want to right? Well, I'm sorry about the lamp ans I'm sorry that I have to tell you 'that' when you probably don't feel the same. Adam" |
"Yes, it was a lovely town, with loving family." He paused remembering his home and his family. "I think their sad. They can not see outside their bubble. They fear us but they kill with no thought. No one in my town had seen a human in over three hundred years. We caused no one harm and yet they still came." He stopped to stare out at the crowd. Then looked at Lucifer and smiled. "I like it long but I don't think you would look bad with short hair."
He turned to watch as Adam went out and did his act. He watched as a lion was sent out to Mellie and Ahanna. The lion dropped something into Mellie's lap. When his acted ended Rythen clapped. Ahanna watched Adam come out with his lions. When he sent the lion up towards them she smiled. She glanced over when one of them dropped a note in Mellie's lap. She was curious what it was about but didn't ask instead turning back to the show. She stood and clapped when it ended. |
((lol xD Baby lions by the way, are lion cubs <3))
''Of course I will.'' She said, pouting her lips faking accusation. In the end, she would always support, that was simply her role in the circus. When the lion licked her, Cire was a little surprised but smiled none the less. The woman 'watched' the act, while still remaining alert towards the hunters. Sure enough, she was probably a little overprotective, but then again it was her duty to watch over this circus in multiple ways. Even if her watching meant looking at aura's and use multiple ways of 'seeing', such as sound and force resonance. The show was wonderfull and she clapped from the animal tent's enterance, having a proud smile on her face. Though her thoughts were a bit too occupied and kept her from focussing, which made her miss the delivery of Melody's letter. Small things like paper barely take space and thus are hard to notice for the blind fox. She sighed, putting on a broad smile as Adam returned. ''Next time try asking for fun instead of luck, with an ac like that luck isn't needed anymore.'' She moved over and removed the hats of the lions as they walked on. ''The children really enjoyed petting the cubs, it was just so lovely.'' She whispered, her smile not lessening one bit. |
Scarlett watched Adam's act and clapped when it ended. She then noticed Rythen and Lucifer.... flirting? She felt a little bit of jealousy until she looked away from Lucifer and sighed to herself, looking at the palm of her hands. It's not like he was hers anyways, so let him flirt with who he pleased. She looked back up from the palms of her hands to watch the next act which she believed was Lucifer's. She sat back in her chair again, holding a single red rose in her hand that always at the end of her act she would throw into the crowd. She twirled it around with her fingers and looked at the petals.
|
Rythen smiled and slightly pushed Lucifer forward. "Looks like it is your turn. Go show that girl of yours how great you are." He watched the man. He did like him. Lucifer seemed nice and he thought they would get along. But he really doubted they would last through a long relationship. He was fun to mess around with though.
|
Lucifer walked out to the middle of the show area, and held his hands up, while the crowd cheered. His face was sturdy and serious. As soon as the clapping died down, he pulled off his jacket, revealing a bare chest. He heard the women sigh with satisfaction, and an evil grin appeared. Looking over, he saw Scarlett with the others, and pointed at her. He winked and grinned wider. "I," Lucifer's voice boomed throughout the tent, shutting everyone up, who were trying to see who Lucifer was pointing at. "Am the Acrobat," he turned around, his hair flowing softly as he walked to the ladder. Climbing up, he moved swiftly, watching the crowd for any signs of weapons that anyone could be holding. 'Hunters...' he thought. Getting to the second highest platform, he stood there for a moment, then jumped five feet out to the highest swing. They were layered, a foot difference, so it would be easier to get to. As he swung, he flipped around it, then dove suddenly to the next swing, fifteen feet away. The crowd gasped, seeing the length, but he made it, with room to spare. He flipped, but then stayed at the top, his feet pointing straight to the ceiling. "My oh my!" he called out, grinning. Letting go of the swing, he held on with one hand, his other grabbing a pen out of his pocket. Like it was no big deal, he spun the pen around in his hair, then put it up in a perfect bun.
Finally, he held back on and swung for a second, then let go, flipping three times before grabbing onto the steel horizontal bar. With a grunt, he flipped up in the air and landed on his feet. The crowd burst with cheers, seeing him land so gracefully. For a moment, he let them serenade him, then he slowly slid into a split. He then slid back up, delicately and smoothly, until he was standing again. The crowd stared in awe as he did a back bend, folding himself in half, backward. His bones crackled, as he grabbed the bar, lifting his legs up in the air. He flipped off the bar and sailed, grabbing the fabrics. The lights dimmed and a single blue light hit him. Softly, he wrapped his feet in the fabrics, and stood there, his arms folded over his chest. Slowly, he twirled, letting the fabrics get tangled in one another. He then fell back, his feet still tied in the fabrics. As he spun, he untangled his feet, and held on with just his hands, upside down. Mid-air splits, gently flips, and graceful movements all made the crowd go wild. Soon, the lights turned completely off, leaving the room black as night. When they turned on a moment later, Lucifer was standing back in the middle. It wasn't his best performance, but he still got the applaud of a lifetime. Bowing, he felt the pen fall out of his hair. He picked it up, and turned around, walking off stage, back to where Rythen was. ~ Mellie put the letter to the side and watched the acrobat's performance. He was amazing, and she was worrying. How was she going to live up to -that-, as a simple rope-walker? Sighing, she looked around for Adam, then read the letter, slowly and carefully. Smiling to herself, she blushed hard and closed it. "Well..." she said softly. "I don't have a lamp anymore!" she giggled and held the letter delicately. Sighing, she continued smiling, and closed her eyes. The lights hurt her eyes, because of how dark it was. Opening her eyes again, she straightened out her dress and looked around again. "So...Who's next?" she asked, hiccuping softly. |
Rythen watched in awe as Lucifer flew through the air. It really was amazing and it made his juggling look horribly unexciting. But he could enjoy the beauty in it. He laughed when Lucifer put his hair up. When it was over he clapped with the rest of the crowd. "Very nicely done. I'm going to have to up my game to compete with that." He said with a wink when Lucifere walked back over to him.
He paused looking back over the crowd. "I saw you looking around up there. You didn't spot anything weird up there did you? Ahanna watched Lucifer's act with amazment. His movements brought back memories of her own dear sister. Her sister had been a great performer but had been lost to her in the last attack. But this man was more refined at the act. She clapped when it was over then turned to look at Mellie. She was reading the note. She started blushing then said something about a lamp. Ahanna was confused but didn't say anything about it. "I believe it is that Emily woman." |
