AKA

~ . ~
Likes:
*French Vanilla Tea; It calms her nerves and sends a fuzzy feeling down her body.
*Her Outfits; She loves ribbon, lace, and bright colors. Her love for attention to detail helped her create her act.
*Manatees; There is just something about manatees she adores. No one knows why she loves those ugly seals.
*Meat; For a thin, frail young lady, she devours meat like an animal. It's almost disturbing to watch.

Dislikes:
X The dark; She rather see what lurks in it than to be blinded from it.
X Rabbits; They make her feel uncomfortable.
X Black Magic; Ashlynn is paranoid of the spirit world, and wants nothing to do with it.
X Heights; She was planning to be a acrobat, until she realized that she couldn't stand at least 10 feet in the air.
X Her Hair; Although it reflects off the light beautifully, it's extremely long and it's hard to brush in the morning. She'll
Occasionally ask for one of the performers to brush her hair out, which results in about an hour of getting rid of tangles and rat nests.

Skills: Ashlynn has learned ballet ever since she was about five years old. She was a natural at dancing, and continued to become a professional, along with ribbons to approve her accuracy. She's been in gymnastics before as well, and always strives to do better than her class. Seeing that her bones were still developing, she could easily, yet painfully, bend and twist unlike anyone before. It can be so intense, before her closing act, the announcer has to ask for all children under the age of 10, and the faint hearted, to leave before continuing her show.

Flaws: As mentioned before, Ashlynn is terrified of heights. If her role was to dance on a typerope, it better be a foot high, otherwise she will absolutely refuse to step on stage. Selfish? Some may say so. She tends to have a short attention span, ruining her act at least 3 times a year. One minute she'll be happily twirling, the next she's standing in the middle of the stage, blank staring at the audience.

Performance: Aerial silk
An aerobic act with ribbons and silk. Despite her fear of heights, she is tangled up in her ribbons to really fear about falling. However, to do her act of dislocating her body in her dance, she tends to stay on the ground and glide with the material rather than hoisted into the air.
~ . ~
Image
Personality: Ashlynn is a healthy and active girl who stays out of trouble. She tries her best to be a good little girl, but at other times, she tries her hardest to be a bad little girl. Needless to say, her actions are normally unexpected and she's a handful, especially with her act. Whether anyone has figured it out or not, she tends to forget the most important things at the worst of times. Perhaps it is a case of stage fright? No, she's been successful before. Maybe even short term memory loss? Yes, that must be it.

. Ashlynn surprisingly eats a lot. Seriously, I mean A LOT! You can give her a full Thanksgiving turkey and she'll still be hungry after she finishes that off. Then again, a strong metabolism can finish that off without a sweat. She also has a hard time getting along with her fellow performers. She isn't shy, but has a hard time meeting new people. Seeing everyone's glares from her flaws has made her against talking to her performers, unless it's business matters. This has become so bad to the point where she'd just rudely walk away mid-conversation. Of course, in result, she regrets it every time.
History: WIP

Relationships:


.::Angelo::.
"He helps me with my hair a lot..."


.::Basil::. ~
"He seems nice... though, we only shared a few words here and there. Acquaintances, and only that.


.::Brink::. ~
"I'm not sure what to say about him, or to him... but I'm sure next time I mess up, he'll get onto me about it."


.::Glamour::.(Adoration)
"Her and I's act are a little similar... except, she dances better than I. Her outfits are very nice too~ However, I also fear her and her brother... since our acts are so similar, Brink could literally throw me out of the circus if I keep ruining my show. With them here, not being apart of the team would be like a shell missing from the sea. It's not a big loss."


.::Heaven::.
"Ah? Heaven? Well, he's... skilled. Cute boy, nice eyes. I'm sure the ladies will be all over him once he gets a growth spurt."


,::Ophis::.
"E-Eh... she helps Brink a lot. So, she seems nice."


.::Fraener::.
"D-Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he's nice! H-However... I heard he's invested into the paranormal... I have to g-get someone else to talk to him for me..."


.::Lyca and Remus::.
"They're almost as perfect as Glamour... they're the type of people I wish I could be. Confident... skilled... they're great traits to have."


.::Shae::.
"Oh, I know I'm being paranoid, but she deals with spirits! I'm... scared of her... I guess..."


.::Leo::.
"It's funny how he thinks I don't know he plays with my hair~ On another note, he's a handsome guy. I don't know him too well, but... I think I know him well enough to call him my friend."

It had been a year sense the circus was in such a state of buzz but it was a welcome feeling by most. After a long break of practice's and construction they were finally back in action. Of course thing's were different now, some old friends were gone and the circus no longer traveled, there was a new ringmaster, but for the most part everyone seemed fine with the changes. The anxiety however was another thing that no one seemed fine with. Like there name-sake and there history The Moonsetter Circus would perform at night, and starting at 9pm people were allowed to arrive but the show did not begin until 10pm at which point it ran until 1am a somewhat skewed schedule by most peoples standing but this was the norm for the circus. In fact because of this odd schedule most performers would not wake up until 12 in the afternoon. But because this was /the/ grand re-opening day everything was allot more hectic. People were waking up at weird times for extra practice, costumes were getting pulled out of trunks, routines perfected, the stage cleaned and then cleaned again. Yes it had been quite some time sense the circus was found in such a state but it was welcome indeed...





Angelo Orpheus was definitely the younger brother but at times he did not feel like it... And this was one of those times. It was currently 11:35am, a time that was usually calm with the staff and performers slowly trickling into the kitchen for there breakfast? lunch? brunch? However because today was the grand re-opening Angelo was moving his way around people who came into the kitchen/dining room before promptly leaving again without explanation, no one it seemed care to just sit down for 5 minutes and eat something. And of course Brink was not even up yet. Letting out a sigh of exasperation Angelo practically barked at the next worker coming in, flames actually left his mouth this time as he told the worker to either sit down and eat or go somewhere else. Luckily the flames seemed to make his point clear and the worker was quickly sitting down at one of the many tables. Letting out a long sigh that looked more like a puff of flame Angelo got back to work finishing up the last few pancakes. After all because of the strange eating schedule Angelo often found himself making breakfast and lunch together to keep everyone happy.

Angelo was just setting down the last few plates of food when the clock chimed 12, officially it was 'lunchtime' and more of the actual performers would come in from training or sleep to sit down for awhile. Lunchtime also meant that Brink would finally stagger in, no doubt dressed but his hair still a mess. Angelo questioned why he kept it long if he had no idea how to brush or style the damn purple mop. But if he was honest with himself he was somewhat flattered that he was trusted with the task of caring for his brothers long hair. Opening the drawer he kept especially for hair supplies Angelo plucked a bobby pin, a brush, and a hair tye, he was thinking of just going with Brink's signature high ponytail for today. As if on cue Brink walked in and stumbled to his spot before lazily picking out food for his meal. Snickering Angelo did not hesitate to walk up behind his brother and begin brushing out his long hair.

"I take it this morning was rough on you?"

Angelo glanced down at Brink before letting out another fiery sigh. Brink only nodded in understanding before going back to his food. There communication was often like this is the morning. Brink would ask questions and Angelo would respond with a quiet sign of either frustration or amusement, and today was definitely the latter. Angelo finished brushing through the knots in Brink's hair before he began the styling process. It was nice that even on the most crazy of days they would still do this, it was also nice that Brink's hair seemed to captivate and quiet the more easily hypnotized members of staff into starring like love struck fish. Not that Brink was aware of any of it. Letting out a sigh of content as for the moment all was quiet but Angelo was more then aware that this would not last forever, hell he'd be surprised if it lasted 10 more minutes. Sensing his tensity Brink turned back and gave him a comforting smile. After all the two brothers had survived this far together, surely they could survive one day chaos...

Ashlynn

Image

Nervous... aching... anxious... petrified...

Merely a few words to describe the young blondette's feelings this morning. Despite having a decent sleep, and a wonderful dream, she felt sick to her stomach. There were knots and the sensation of constant churning. Normal symptoms of extreme anxiety. Ashlynn flickered her eyes open and rested her hand on her stomach, only to see her room now lit up with the sunbeams that peaked through her window. She took in a sharp breath as she rolled onto her back, trying her best to wake up so she can prepare for the day. As they always say, easier said than done.

Ashlynn slowly sat up and brushed her hair back with her fingers. She had been practicing her dance for almost a month by now. It was a story that was told through complete body language, about a girl who had tried so hard to please others, she ended up destroying herself in the process. In the end, when it seems like all hope is lost for the young child, she finds away to make everyone, including herself, satisfied and slowly builds herself up once more. A true masterpiece, really. The blondette's stories would always have to be somewhat saddening. I mean, c'mon, who ever heard of a completely happy story where your limbs go limp and distorted? It didn't seem to bother the audience though, not even Ashlynn herself.

The girl slowly trotted to her wardrobe, throwing the doors open and pulling out her costume. There, Ashlynn gently laid it out across her bed and smoothed out the wrinkles. It was a layered, frilly salmon dress. It signaled traits of purity (The white trim) and love (pink base), however, the layers told that she was able to do anything to gain more of it. After admiring her costume for a few moments, the blondette pulled off her nightgown, and returned to her wardrobe.

Ashlynn dressed in a simple, blue teacup dress. She slipped on her hair accessories, and then looked herself over in the mirror. After nodding in approval, she opened her door and made her way down towards the kitchen, only to see she was not the only one up this early.

The girl grunted slightly, taking a step back in almost a shocked state. Then again, she really should not be surprised. It was a important day, people were up early, it's only natural. Ashlynn rolled her jaw as she processed this, and decided she'd prepare a cup of tea this morning instead of her regular coffee. The blondette opened the cabinets and pulled out her personal tea bags, already filling the tea kettle with water. She glanced around timidly at everyone else in the room, then cleared her throat. "... Go... Good morning." Ashlynn's voice cracked as she spoke up.

When Ashlynn and Shae came in, it was only Brink who acknowledged them giving a small shy 'good-morning.' Angelo on the other hand was too busy carefully brushing out a knot in his brothers hair to say much instead he only nodded and for now that was good enough. By the time Leo came in however Angelo was just tightening the high pony tail which was just in time because when the noise of over eager chatter hit Brink's ears the purple haired sibling allowed his head to fall quite gracelessly down onto the table with a rather loud thud. Angelo snickered and set the brush down.

"Careful Leo, that ones got fangs." Angelo beamed cheekily. "He's also been here longer then you and that means he's got me and Brink's favor. So if he bites I saw nothing." Angelo gave Fraener a playful wink. Something he had started doing recently sense they were good friends. True Leo was also his friend but he was bordering on big brother territory and that would just make things weird. Slipping back into the kitchen Angelo quickly pored a cup of coffee before walking back and placing it in front of Brink like a peace offering. It seemed to work as the older Orpheus finally lifted his head and took the cup downing it quickly.

Finally Brink seemed to have the courage to actually do something. Sitting up slowly Brink sighed. "Frae please don't listen to Angelo biting someone would not end well... Not today at least." Quickly rubbing his temples the older Orpheus side. "So... Is everything good for today? No problems?" Angelo knew the question was directed at him and he snorted.

"Brink there's always problems."


"But nothing severe? No one in need of a medic."

"That depends has Spade jumped off the roof lately?"

"Oh god the roof... Oh god Spade!"

And with that Brink was off to try and track down the man. Angelo could not help but chuckle as this was all fairly normal protocol at the circus, in fact you could usually tell if something was wrong if Brink wasn't chasing after someone. Picking up Brinks empty cup and plate Angelo walked back to the kitchen to set them down as well as put away the brush.

Heaven was sitting trying to eat but Angelo had breathed fire at him~ it was amazing, Heaven didn't bother hiding the blush that was painting his face as he ate Angelo's cooking and watched him work with a trained eye. Then Angelo stalked back into his locked prison of a kitchen, with a sad little sigh Heaven defected to watching Fraener.

Also for the first time he noted that Ashlynn was hanging around quietly in the kitchen.

Glamor sniffed haughtily as Angelo blew fire at Heaven, her eyes squinted slightly in judgement. Why did Angelo humor him when Angelo obviously didn't feel the same. She was observing her little angel when Angelo lazily walked over and dropped her plate down in front of her.

"Well it's about damn time fire-boy! When her majesty asks you for food. . . You drop everything else and get it for her! Don't make the same mistake again."

Glamor scolded the young man before he turned and stumbled back into the kitchen. Glamor huffed before cutting dainty little bites and chewing them softly and delicately. She told herself repeatedly in he head, graceful. . . Graceful . . . Then out of the corner of her eye she spotted Ashlynn cooking up some tea. She caught this glimpse when Angelo opened the door to the kitchen, she made sure Ashlynn made eye contact before signaling her to come sit with herself and Heaven.

Ashlynn

Image

As the tea kettle whistled like there was no tomorrow, Ashlynn picked it up by its handle and held it to her chest. As she let it simmer down, she turned to the cabinet and searched for her 'special cup'. Now, you'd think that her special cup would be a antique tea cup, or some handydown from her family. Wrong. It was just a huge, crimson coffee mug. Oh yes, when Ashylnn drank tea, she drank tea. The blondette poured the steamy water into her cup with a satisfied smile, then placed her teabags in. She took a step back and folded her hands together infront of her as she waited patiently.

As the girl waited for her favorite drink to be done, she glanced over to the commotion at the breakfast table. She was happy at least one person acknowledged her good morning, but it was not who she wanted to. Ashlynn let out a quiet sigh through her nose as she studied those who sat down and chit chatted. The blondette started to question if Angelo took that one incident personally about a week ago. In the middle of a conversation, she literally just got up and left without a word. Ashlynn was not offended in anyway, she just... left.

However, Ashlynn was soon snapped out of her worries as Glamour and her younger sibling, Heaven, made their way to their seats. Her eyes lit up. Finally, people she could actually talk to. Although people may find them both snobby and stuck up, she almost saw them as family. Take my word, it has nothing to do with them all being blonde, or their act.

As Angelo and Heaven bickered with eachother, she felt a little aching in her chest. Although her crush was small, it bothered her that Heaven would flirt like that. What bothered her even more though, was that Angelo give him a reason to try harder. She watched her friend leave the room as her hands started to feel sweaty. Ashlynn felt as if she should say something to break the silence between them.

When she turned back, she'd grunt after noticing that Glamour was staring at her. The blondette flickered her eyes, glancing to her right, then her left, then back to her friend. As she pulled out her tea bags, and mixed in her sugar, she picked up her big mug and happily made her way to the table. Ashlynn was more than happy to be invited to sit, even if it was by Fraener. She took her seat on the left of Glamour. "Hehe... he'll learn eventually." She reassured her as she took a big gulp of her drink.

There was a word to describe someone like Ashlynn...

... Lap dog.

Ashlynn looked to Glamour's brother, putting her feelings aside for the moment. "Good Morning, Heaven~" She felt her mood perk up almost immediately. Simple things can make big effects, I suppose.

Leo King




Leo smiled as Fraener bared his fangs, and Angelo warned him with a smile. "Your favor? Aww, I thought I was everyone's favorite kitty around here." He laughed, showing his own fangs- though his weren't deadly, at the moment. He watched everyone trickling in, grinning like a madman. Then Glamor stalked in, as deadly as a panther past all of her makeup. She was as venomous as Fraener... and Leo seriously did NOT like her. His mood dimmed a bit as she came to sit near them, barking orders at Angelo like she owned the whole freaking circus. He almost hissed at her, but managed to keep a straight face until Heaven entered a minute later.

Heaven came and sat next to Glamor, and Angelo brought him his food quickly. Leo smiled again, as the two played around. He could read body language fairly well, and if he was correct, Heaven seemed to be quite besotted with the Ringmaster's brother. As Ashlynn came over, he nibbled on the honey bun. He watched her as well, and she seemed to be... jealous? Leo couldn't figure out why.

He wanted to leave but something nagged him to stay. Leo shrugged to himself, wondering what harm it would do to remain in the café a bit longer. "So, are you guys excited about the show tonight? I'm super pumped. I can't wait! The stage is my home. I love to perform. I wonder when Ophis will come around? I haven't seen her, or Spade, but judging from the hurry Brink took off in earlier, I bet he's awake." And probably jumping off something high with no regards to his personal safety, too... "But anyway, I'm totally psyched." His permanent smile widened even more.

ImageFraener Carnet

Everything was starting to get much too crowded for Fraener's liking. It wasn't as if he hadn't known this was going to happen, it was exactly the reason he avoided the cafe at all costs during normal hours, but today he had been so distracted by the missing snake eggs that he hadn't even thought about it before coming here. The tempt of coffee to calm his nerves, or at least distract him, had been too strong. Clearly he had made a huge mistake, but there was little he could do about it now. One minute he had been sitting alone at a table, drowning in a cloud of gloom, and suddenly Leo was there, and he just seemed to bring all the blonds with him.

He watches as Angelo retreats into the kitchen, trying to ignore the other three blonds that had joined them so recently, but a certain one catches his attention when he sits down next to him, patting his head and offering a greeting. "Good morning, Heaven." He tilts his head slightly to the side, giving him a curious once over before deciding that he likes that he sees. Frae wasn't one that cared much about beauty or appearance (besides making himself look perfect, but that didn't take much effort), but he knew enough to appreciate someone as aesthetically pleasing as Heaven. His sister on the other hand? She seemed like she didn't like the snake much, so he gave her the same favor.

"You are looking gorgeous as ever, but that's really not surprising." Heaven always looked good, as did Glamor, but Frae didn't swing her way. Faintly he hears Leo chattering again in the background, and he decides that despite the constant word-vomit, he isn't that bad. Perhaps when they practiced together, if they ever practiced together, it would be easier to get to know him. Frae wasn't socially awkward, he just didn't enjoy group conversations, finding himself easily left behind and unable to keep up with what was usually senseless chit-chat to him.

As she came downstairs, Brink acknowledged her with a soft 'good morning'; a genuine smile perked up the corners of her mouth and she nodded back to him. Not wanting to seem too enthusiastic, her eyes float back down to the floor as she made her way into the kitchen.

Shae was still a bit disoriented as the conversation erupted as more people came downstairs. Quietly, Shae grabbed a tea mug from the kitchen cabinet and poured herself a cup of hot water. Rummaging through her teas she picked a white ginger peach tea and placed the tea bag into the water.

With a sigh, her eyes flickered this way and that as she tried to decide what to eat for breakfast...

She could have a bagel? Maybe some fruit...

Restless, the brunette picked out an apple and began to slice it into thin pieces, setting them in a circle on a plate. She then grabbed the peanut butter from the fridge and scooped it out with a spoon, placing the peanut butter in the middle of the apple slices.

Picking up her plate and her tea cup, she turned to the breakfast table, which was already being crowded by people. Her bright blue eyes scanned the group as she located a place to sit. Their auras swiveled and swirled about, all the colors clashing and vibrating against each other. Blinking rapidly for a moment, Shae shook her head, as if the over-stimulation might subside.

But, as usual, it never did.

Shuffling over to the table, Shae kept her head down, her dark hair falling over her face. She took a seat at the edge of the table and placed her tea cup to her right and the plate down in front of her.

She stopped for a moment, staring at the steam coming off of her tea as it steeped, the colors swirling downward towards the bottom of the mug. After a moment of silence, she took a deep breath and grabbed one of her apple slices, dipping it in the perfect peanut butter mound.

Glamor's head began to ache as Leo prattled on and on. She groaned like she was in pain, maintaining her air of nobility the entire time. Then a rehearsed smile painted her delicate features as Ashlynn came and sat next to her and by Heaven. It was a shame, if only Heaven were interested in women, she would actually tolerate him dating Ashlynn.

"Ashlynn dear, you look absolutely adorable this morning, now don't lie. How long did it take to get ready? Three hours? Ha-ha!" Glamor laughed in her high pitched sweet voice as she winded down she patted the young lady's hand with a reassuring smile. However true to form for Glamor underneath the smile was a vicious tigress ready to pounce.

Hearing Leo's buffoonish remarks on being "ready" for performance. Glamor snorted and then practically cackled, her refinement fraying slightly. Her eyes intensely judging the newbie.

"Listen here pussy-cat! Heaven and I are always ready for a show, no matter what. You are an amateur so, I'll let it slide this time. Next time you won't be so lucky." Glamor's face had been twisted into a scowl of disapproval, then with a slight twitch her practiced smile returned, stronger than ever.


Image
Image

Heaven smirked at Frae's remark and clicked his tongue softly, Frae was in rare form today. Then Ashlynn came and sat with him and Glamor, looking over at her Heaven smiled his most friendly smile and unlike Glamor his smile was real.

"Why good morning Ashlynn, that costume you chose today is beautiful!" Heaven said tilting his head slightly and clapping his hands together with his signature grin. Heaven heard Glamor bashing Leo and sighed.

"Yes Leo dear, we're ready. Are you? Is this your fist performance at this circus? I honestly don't think I've ever seen your show. If I see yours. . . Will you come see mine? I'm pretty good at what I do you know Kitty." With that Heaven's grin turned mischievous before he went back to laughing softly over his food.

Ashlynn felt her cheeks warm up with a soft color at the sibling's compliments. She smiled softly as she set down her cup. "This isn't my costume for the show... it's on my bed. Thank you though, I'm... I'm flattered." She said as she stared into the caramel-colored- water. "You both look as astonishing as ever, might I say~ are you going to wear it to the show? Sometimes you dress so nicely, I can't tell!" Ashlynn exclaimed as she looked to her friends.

As Glamour went off on Leo, she placed a hand on her shoulder. "Oh Glamour, do calm down... you can't stress over such a small thing on such a day! I'd hate for you not to give it your all tonight because of this." Ashlynn said as she crossed her legs. After a few moments, she leaned in and whispered in her ear. "You can prove your point tonight by showing this newbie what you're made of. I can see it now, his jaw will drop with amazement~" Ashlynn whispered with a soft chuckle. Sometimes, this worked on Glamour, and others, it didn't. I suppose it just depends on the day.

The blondette turned back to her cup, her hand slipping off of Glamour's shoulder and returning to its spot on her cup. "Honestly though, I'm not sure if I'm ready... I feel like time has gone by so fast, i-i-it's almost scary." She admitted, holding the brim of the cup to her lip.

Glamor winced internally when Ashlynn placed a hand on her shoulder. However on the outside her smile remained as inviting as ever. Ashlynn did have a point, after Glamor and Heaven had been here since the reopening. They helped get it up again. Without Glamor their show would be lacking in Je ne sais pas ce que.
//Translation: I don't know what, in French//

The more Ashlynn spoke the deeper Glamor's smile became, she knew Ashlynn felt both adoration and fear toward herself and Heaven, this was just proving it. Although she did feel like her presence must be rubbing off a little when Ashlynn whispered her words of encouragement into her ear. Then the girl showed her true concerns. She felt inadequate.

"Well, thank you for your encouragement. . . But now, now there is no need for you to be feeling nervous, after all I have helped you with your routine. So, you can't mess it up. . ." Glamor's eyes narrowed slightly as she put a cup up to her lips and took a deep sip. Heaven however was just sitting there quietly eating.

Ashlynn nodded softly to Glamour's words. "... I know, you had... you helped me a lot this past month, but I can't seem to help it..." She mumbled, glancing over to her friend. At least she wasn't planting a facade on her face anymore. "Perhaps I'm just paranoid... yes, that must be it..." She spoke to herself, slouching slightly in her chair. Past performances had ruined her ego so much by now, she didn't even know if she was enjoying dancing anymore.

The blondette's soft, brown eyes trailed across the table. "... Surely even someone as skilled as you had felt like that before, right?" Ashlynn asked, now actually considering fixing herself some breakfast. She needed comfort food right now. This happened before performances a lot, so it was only natural that she'd feel so.

Glamor could tell something was seriously bothering the young lady. She truly was scared. Glamor sighed and placed an arm around her small friend gently. Untrue to character Glamor did care for this girl. Looking down at Ashlynn intently she spoke, not in her haughty stage tone, but in her less refined street voice. Only Heaven had heard it before, now hwoever Ashlynn needed Glamor's genuine self. As it was no one knew about her real name, not even Brink. She refused to tell him. Then her actual voice she liked to keep to herself and Heaven. However to Glamor Ashlynn was becoming family.

"Look, back when I was like. . . Ten, my parents were very strict you know. They repeatedly broke my bones and twisted them so I would be more flexible, they tore my muscles on purpose. I spend years in agony. Now, I did have two performances back with them when I messed up, I was off-pitch and clumsy. However, even though after that I wanted to quit, I had someone there to help me through it all. My little Heaven. He was there for me y'know? Now, I'm here for you. Because I see a piece of myself in you. . ." Very quietly Glamor whispered almost to herself. "You can do it Lou-Lou. . . I believe in you." Then Glamor hugged Ashlynn gently and went back to eating, she needed to finish up so she could have time to prepare herself for performance.

Ashlynn

Ashlynn was surprised as she felt Glamour's touch. She hated physical contact, she knew that. Sometimes the thought would slip her mind, but she knew. The blondette slowly set her cup down as she turned to Glamour with soft eyes.

By the end of her story, the blondette was on the brink of crying. She was always such a wuss over things like this. She wiped her eyes with her hand and sniffled. "W... Wow..." She choked out. "That's... that's very inspiring... and it makes me feel happy that you're able to tell me that.." Ashlynn added on, standing up and taking in a deep breath. "R... Right! I won't fail you, I promise!" She said firmly with a determined frown. Soon, she disappeared from the kitchen, leaving her drink in her spot to become cold.

That is, until she came back and picked it up. "If you'll excuse me..." She whispered, her confidence gone in her voice, but still beamed in her eyes. Then, Ashlynn left for good.

Angelo could tell it was going to be one those days. It was barely a half hour into lunch time and already people were having small spats, getting over them, talking to excitedly and flirting. Seriously if Spade did not throw himself off of something today. Angelo would. Going back to cutting chocolate Angelo mentally went over the list of ingredients and the steps necessary to make the dessert he had planned. He'd been working on it sense yesterday and it was annoyingly complex. Some ingredients had to rest others had to be fresh.And it all had to be ready for tonight. After all what is a grand re-opening if the workers and performers did not get spoiled with a magnificent desert (dessert? god french brain moment). Angelo was so caught up in his work that he barely noticed Frae come in to steal a few pastries until he was on his way out. He gave Angelo and wink and Angelo gave him a puff of flame.

That was another reason Angelo wanted to jump off a building. More then a few people at the circus seemed to believe that if Angelo was breathing fire he was angry or flirting. And although that wasn't wrong it definitely wasn't right. Angelo could breathe fire at any time or moment it would escape his mouth however whenever one emotion got even a little over-zealous. If he was having a great day and was happy, fire would come out of his mouth. If he was joking, there would be fire. Angry? In that case it was blue flame but still. The only emotion that did not elicit flames was sadness well usually. If he was down in the dumps it would in fact have the opposite effect where his internal flame who stop and he'd cool down. So really when people rolled there eyes at Angelo's comments he wanted to roll there necks. After all he meant it quite seriously when he told people not to play with fire or they'd get burned. It had happened once, and it could happen again.

Finishing up the chocolate Angelo looked out the open window dividing the kitchen and dinning room. It all seemed calm... Enough for the circus anyway, though Ashlynn was leaving somewhat early, no doubt to go practice and prepare. But yes all was good. So Angelo felt no reason to hold onto his irritation and he let it out in a long sigh of blue flames. He felt better with just that and decided to take a short break and join Shae she was after all like a big sister and she tended to help Angelo calm down when he was tense, and he needed as much calm and balance in his life or he really might end up burning someone... Again. Shaking out any negative memories Angelo grabbed his own plate of food and made his way toward Shae. She could normally sense when Angelo was looking for a chill pill so he did not say much only gave a cheeky grin to cover his feelings and a cheekier good morning to cover his thoughts. "Morning big sis!"





Brink could not help but blush at Spade's word. "I'm flattered really... But even if I'm the one capable of harm you really should be more careful Spade. Or your going to be the one sending me to an early grave." As much as Brink tried to make it sound lighthearted. There was allot more truth weighing on those words then he would admit out loud. Out of everyone in the circus Spade had to be the one who was sent to the medics office the most. Because healing abilities or not, there was no way Brink was letting him go un-checked. Which proved to be a good thing because Spade was always breaking his damn legs and then forgetting to re-set them.
