Merry Circus

You are standing in front of the mirror, preparing for the upcoming show like you always do.

When suddenly a voice is echoing inside of your head, the voice of a girl from your age.

At first you find it a little weird, but you try to ignore it.
When the voice repeats itself, a fear starts to rise.
After a third time, you decide to go take a look.

Where is the voice coming from? It can't be your imagination, can it?

You are walking in the hallway with the bedrooms of the other performers and notice that others are coming out of their rooms too.
Is everyone hearing it?
Not just you?

You end up before a locked cage.
Inside of it is not a wild animal that is supposed to be used for the circus.

But there is a girl...
Maybe the girl you heard?

Who is she?

Is the girl good or bad?
Does she have to do anything with the attacks on you and your friends and with all the other things that are happening?

Are you going to save her and flee with her from the circus?
Or don't you trust her at all and have faith in your home?

It is all up to you...

What choice do you make?

~~~

This story is about "Merry Circus".

It is the place you work at as performer, but it is also your home and the home of many others.

All of you have a story, a sad and maybe dark one.

Because you are not a normal human, you can do something or have an appearance that is not like the others, and you don't have any family or friend anymore other then the other performers and your boss.

Your personalities are totally different: some enjoy the attention of the public, others are more nervous and full of stress. Some are happy about where they are right now, others prefer to have a family and a normal home. Some like being different, others want to be a normal human.

In this roleplay, the choices are totally up to you!
You can decide yourself what you do in the story and you don't have to follow the other players either, even if you find yourself at different places, you all get to have your own story.

As this is a casual roleplay, I would like you to be able to write AT LEAST several lines for every post.
Something that other people can react to.

For the kind of power/creature you are, keep it a bit realistic.
For example: your height can be out of the normal - if you want to be a giant - but you can't be bigger then the building or the circus itself.

For roles: the girl that the performers find, is played by myself.
All of you will be a performer - as the public will be normal humans - but if you really want to be someone from the public and a normal human, we can fit you in the story if you can give me a reason why you would be allowed backstage. Maybe if you have a family member there? A friend from the past that you want to appologize to for freaking out when he showed you his power?

Let me know if you are interested!

After hearing what the guy had been saying and looking at the faces of the other students in the room, she noticed one girl stepping up and creating a small blue flame. She decided that she was curious to see what she would be capable of, so trying to hide her fear of what would happen if she did what the other girl did, she stepped forward with the same bright smile as always. She searched for the card and talisman that had her name on them and first read the explanation. It was talking about making contracts with spirits to be able to control the weather. Happy as she was that her power would be something to do with nature - as she loved to be outside all the time - all the fear was flowing away, out of her body.

She took a deep breath and did what she had to do. Her body was quite sensitive to the pain of a needle, but she was strong enough to ignore it. Her hand held the talisman to her chest like what was asked of her. Some kind of itchy pain was going from one body part to another. Her breathing got heavier, this wasn't something to enjoy and she didn't like the feeling she got. It made her body fill with fear again. What was that feeling? When would it go away? When she remembered that she was in a room full of other people, she made the same old smile appear and thought to herself that she had been warned about this and that she needed to be strong. Then finally the pain started flowing away which made a strong and cold wind blow to the room. She was shocked herself because of this, but she noticed that when she started calming down that the wind started becoming calm. So she was able to make a wind appear? It made her remember something from the past, a memory where something similar happened. Would she ever be able to control this power?

"Oh, Trent, it looks so nice! I wished I could make something that looked as good as your name tag!" Out of excitement her tail was going back and forth while her eyes were fixed on his name tag. Her own name tag was in her hand, but she didn't pay attention to it at all, she only paid attention to Trent's.

"You seem so serious, why don't we just have fun with it and enjoy it? What can be so bad that we have to get so serious about it? I just want to continue my life having fun and not having to worry about some power I am supposed to have. Why train it and suffer on the way?" She stood up from her chair, a bit disappointed from the fact that this club wasn't just about entertaining themselves. Her concentration was gone after the explanation they got, she got distracted from what was going on and was searching inside of the room for something else to keep herself busy with. Looking around she found a painting that was hanging on the wall and which looked like the painter had put a lot of effort in it. Her eyes went from one corner to another and searched for every detail that was there to find on it. Her feet moved closer and closer to the painting until she was so close to it that people needed to look very close to see that she wasn't touching it.

Her knees were moving from the left to the right and her shoulder were following these movements. She was bored by the situation, but enjoyed the thing she found. "This looks soooo good! Who painted this? It has all kinds of colors in it and in all kind of shades! I am curious if the painter has other works too that look as nice as this one!"

Getting a happy feeling from Trent's compliment, she started smiling more bright. "Thank you! What did you do for your name tag, Trent?" She looked over at his piece, going a bit in his personal space without noticing it herself.

We didn't discuss yet which of the two would be the one to get chosen ;)

As Dexter has the characteristic 'scared' when he is sober, maybe it would be interesting if Dawn was the one being chosen and the one to get many people ask her if they would be her partner. He would become jealous and would drink more then usually.

But also: Dawn has the fear to lose a friend and the dislike to being ignored, so she could also easily play the role of being jealous at her partner getting many people ask him to go with him on the trials

I think both are a good possibility
What do you think? ;)

Happy at the affectionate attention she got from her partner, she was even jumping a bit on her chair. She liked getting attention from Dexter as he was the one Fairy Tail member that she liked the most. He was her best friend in the guild and that's why she liked it so much to be able to do her missions with him. When he was present, most of the time she didn't need to fake being happy all the time. She truly felt this way when he was near her.

Like always she couldn't hold her laugh when she noticed what he ate as breakfast. "Be sure to not become a fat ass, Dex!" For people on the outside, it must have been funny to watch the two friends and partners. He liked eating and drinking while she was too thin and actually needed to eat more. Many asked her if it didn't bother her, but it actually hurted more that people would think that she wouldn't be able to accept a characteristic of Dexter. He was her best friend, so she liked every bit of him that he showed her. Of course she wouldn't show being hurt and just laughed their comment away, at those moments it was the hardest to keep her mask on, but it would be the best for everyone if she did - even for herself.

Hearing his comment, it made her think for almost two seconds. "What are you meaning, dumb ass. WE will get chosen, of course. Many people look up to us, we're pretty strong. Why shouldn't the master pick us? We are going to the trials together! But know that if I would have to battle you, I won't go easy on you." She said with a big, bright smile to tease Dexter. She couldn't even hold her own laugh in at that last sentence. She was pretty sure that they would go there together, but wouldn't have to battle each other. And even if they did, she herself was strong enough to tie to him, she thought.

Fairy Tail: The Perfect Partners [EasilyAmused + Squirrel98]

When she woke up in the morning, she noticed that her mattress had turned into something that looked like an ice rink. At moments that it felt too hot for her to be able to fall asleep in her bedroom, she would use her magical power to freeze the bed a little. That way it was nice, cold and relaxing for her.

While she had a hard time keeping her eyes open, she rolled herself out of the bed. One would normally ask if that wouldn't hurt, like a lot, but she had put a thick blanket there to break the fall. That is how she got herself out of bed every morning. After landing there, she still needed a couple of minutes until she decided to stand up.

In her closet were a lot of clothes with almost all of them being dresses and almost all of them in the same shades. As she was in her usual bad mood - because of the fact that she had to get out of bed and it was still so comfortable - she just took a dress without even checking which one. In her right hand she held the stick that she always carried around and when she had looked in the mirror to check if her appearance was acceptable for the outside world, she went downstairs to take a sandwich as breakfast. Just one was enough.

While walking to the door - to go to Fairy Tail - she was thinking about which way she would take to the guild. Which way would have the most people, which one would be the busiest, which one would be the longest? After she decided, she laid her hand on the doorknob, closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2..." she whispered as she opened her eyes at 1 and the door at 0.

Her feet moved her body outside of her house. After she had locked the door, she hurried herself to the first busy stop on the way. Even though someone had bought the house for her and she liked the house itself, she lived in a very quite environment. She didn't like how silent it was and so she always hurried until she got somewhere with a lot of people. After she was completely away from home, she knew she had to change her moody, serious attitude in the other side of her personality that she liked herself a lot more. She liked that side of herself so much more that she made everyone believe that it was her only side.

A big, bright smile appeared on her face while her feet started hopping instead of just walking. With her stick still in her hand, her arms started dancing back and forth with the wind - which made her look a bit like a child. Many people waved at her with a smile on their faces as their way to wish her a good day. She waved back at a lot of people and even started talking to some. As she already was taking a long route, it took her a lot of time to actually get to the guild. At least a lot more time then one would usually take.

She stepped inside of the building that she called 'her home' to the people she called 'her family'. At first she stopped moving at the doorstep, still with a bright smile she started looking around to see who already had arrived. Truly happy that she saw her partner sitting at the bar, she ran as fast as she could to him, put her hands on his shoulders and jumped a bit in the air - leaning on him. "Goooooooooooooooooood morning, my friend!" she shouted with her eyes looking down at him - even though she was much smaller then him, she enjoyed when she could lean on him and seem taller, she liked looking down like people usually do to her. When she realised that she forgot the other members, she went to stand normally and looked at Mira. "Oh yeah, good morning to you too, Mira!" she said with her hand high in the air and her eyes focused on Mira's face. After that she also said 'good morning' to some other members, she went to sit beside Dexter and ordered a drink.
