two laughs

[undespairing]

Who came up with all these songs? They're really fun! And at the rate they're going I'll have them all memorized before the day's out. I didn't think people would start celebrating so early, it's amazing!

Oh, and by the way, does anyone know where I can find a job around here? I'm still kind of new in town you see, and this thing seems like a good way to ask.

Any experience with running a front desk?

[undespairing]

No, but I'm willing to try! Are you offering?

[Ahaha...it's an interesting idea! If all else fails maybe he can use it as a rent-free house.]

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

Maybe the circus is a better fit?. There's always cleaning to do.

[undespairing]

The circus? I don't think I've ever seen that before.

[valentineluke.livejournal.com]

It's in the Underground, hence why you probably haven't.

[undespairing]

That would explain it! I haven't tried exploring the underground yet. And now I've got an excuse!

[downloads direction to/from Circus Carnivore]

Keep to the warded paths. Don't stray from them.

A free pass for yourself and a guest can be arranged. All I need is a name.

[undespairing]

[Oh wow, digital directions! He's never going to stop being amazed with this thing.]

Warded paths, got it. What happens if I stray though?

Oh, and my name's Elmer. Elmer C. Albatross. Nice to meet you!

I'm Luke Valentine. As for straying; there are various predators always on the lookout for prey. If the wander is lucky, they may only be robbed of money and nothing more. Or, very quickly dispatched instead of far worse. Or, very quickly devoured.

The Day show is a family friendly, traditional circus complete with animals - many of which are on loan from the zoo.

The *Night show is avant-garde and more for adults.

Concession stands, game booths, funhouse with maze, fortune tellers, and wandering acts - magicians, snake charmers, belly dancers, organ grinders, etc., - make up the rest.

[undespairing]

So the place is dangerous, huh? I'll make sure to keep that in mind.

And...wow, that sounds amazing! Real fortune tellers? You must see a lot of happy people there, huh? I'd like to see those game booths too, that sounds like a lot of fun.

[...I want to go to that circus, haha.]

The games aren't rigged nor are the prizes 'cheap'. Everyone has a fair chance at winning something of quality.

[undespairing]

That's even better! Unless someone's got really bad luck.
