event: step right up

[mayfield_mods]

[Sometime during the night, it seems something new has arrived. Nothing threatening this time, though. It seems the carnival has come to town!

Where normally there's only a plain grassy area in the town park, now there are rows and rows of brightly colored and lit stalls, bursting with food and games. All the stalls are manned by drones, though none you've seen around before. Besides that, it looks like there are a few fun looking rides, an exciting show, and a swell funhouse that's sadly boarded up for the time being.

So everything is pretty old and rusty, that just lends it charm. And please don't mind the grime, the strange smells, or the slightly haunting music. Have a sense of adventure, there's nothing off about any of this at all.

Get ready for some good ol' fashioned fun!]

OPEN!

[extraordinarily]

Not really.

[ Haruhi shrugs. ]

Besides, jumping off of buildings is a piece of cake! A ferris wheel should be easier.

[extraordinarily]

I wasn't talking about 'good-looking'. And it didn't matter if it was a guy or a girl, honestly.

[truffulacide]

Sorta like a really bad-tempered snake does. We just gotta dodge the fangs as best as we can. [he hunches his shoulders.] I know, I know. Easier said than done.

They better watch out. They've already ticked off a werewolf, a bunch of superheroes, and some crazy mad scientists, but those'll be the least of their worries when they get the resident vampires involved.

[FINALLY, someone who gets it]

It's making me sick just watching these pigs eat it. Don't they know they'll get fat?

[butterflyinfojk]

Yeah. 'sides, what about this place doesn't have a trick or two to it?

[ceasetoexist]

....I guess the question is then if this was sent by the town or sent by Gray.

[atailoftwoworlds]

Oh....[Well, his ego deflated a little]

...So what exactly do you mean by 'interesting'? [...Oh, wait. She's not talking about what he is thinking, is she? Because it would be a really stupid reason]

[butterflyinfojk]

So you've lost someone already? I mean...besides from droning? [ Clearly he's thinking of Sazh. ]

Re: Ferris Wheel

[wishesforacutiemark]

[And Apple Bloom hops onto the seat] Yup. Looks like there is!

[She turns to Hajime] By the way, I don't think I've seen ya around before? What's yer name?

[extraordinarily]

That's easy to explain! Anyone who doesn't look human is obviously interesting!

[ There's a duh implication to her tone. ]

[answerer_sword]

No, just speaking of droning.

[The sad truth is, in her home world, she had almost no one to lose.]

I could not protect Sazh, but I will try to protect you.

[mal_addict]

It is easier said than done, but the more it attacks us, the better practised we'll get at dodging it.

[Maladict chuckles] And I'm one of the least psychopathic ones.

[watchthenails]

It seems like they do not. That, or they do not care. Quite ignorant, I must say.

[ Such foolish people. Looks are pretty much everything. ]

[handsoffmyskirt]

P-probably-He once tried to convince me an evil robot took his place.

[ She's still giggling. The fun part is, that actually happened. :| ]

[walking_nuke]

[Balin snickers.]

Man, I wish. But uh—

[Right, Barton said she's from before Mayfield's time. How to explain this ...]

—you know'a televisions here? That's where'a "video" part comes in. Games you play on electronic stuff, an' you watch what's happenin' in'a game through a video device. Like a TV screen.

[encored]

[good thing they are such healthy people!!

he waves a hand, giving her a look that says well duh of course i'm not an idiot. IF HE ONLY KNEW...]

I wouldn't say it's enough to take solace in, but it's something. [shrugs! he gives the room another quick once-over before shaking his head.] Not long, really. I don't plan on staying any longer either, as there isn't much worth my time.

Re: Buddy Cops at the Funhouse - GO

[surf_n_makai]

You know, punching something sounds pretty good. Or shooting something. Thankfully I still had my gun when I woke up here this time.

[guiding_starlight]

Mm, Vivio is quite cute~!

[ A nod. ] That's right. Her name is Fate Harlaown. I will have to introduce you to her, too, sometime. She, Hayate, and I have known each other since we were very young.

[guiding_starlight]

Mm, well if you are looking after your friends, that's good. Knowing that you'll keep yourself and others safe will go a long way to making me worry less. [ The reversal of the power dynamic does not change old, ingrained habits. ]

[ Nanoha shook her head. ] No, I doubt it is. It hasn't taken me long not to trust anything this town provides us at face value. [ The radio broadcast's ominous message still echoes in her mind. ]

[watchthenails]

[ Oh, hello there. He gives her a smile. ]

Ah yes, of course. Wishing especially much for that way out.

[ Taki takes the piece of paper and inspects it. ] It seems like luck is not in my favour, however. Or it might be rigged. I would not be surprised.

[ex_seventh238]

[the healthiest

she gives a small nod.]

I was curious about that, actually. I wanted to ask you what you were still doing here, if you've already taken a glance at everything. So was running into me just a coincidence, Charles? [THE AMUSEMENT IS NOT LEAVING HER EYES. His one indication that she is still trolling to some degree...]

Freak Show

[princecreepshow]

[ It's the silliest thing to forget.

Oh hey, he can see how uncomfortable that makes Niou. He laughs, but there is a hint of anger in it as he thinks of the table right behind him. It's up to Niou if he picks up on it or not. ]

Can't take the blood, Bianco Natale?

Re: Ferris Wheel

[chalicejoker]

They're probably just taking a smoke break somewhere...

[Oh, Floyd. Quit suggesting things. Please.]

The yard's not big enough for it, Floyd. And the neighbors would complain.

[Hajime is standing up now to get a better look outside. Enjoy the creaking this causes.]

I wonder if we could climb out...

[More creaking. That is probably a bad idea.]

[handsforhealing]

Well are you a princess?

[handsforhealing]

Yes! That sounds like a great idea! I'll need to find someone to build parts too... This is going to be exciting!
