Welcome To The Circus

My name is Dimitri Herondale and I am the main act in a traveling Circus. My past is shrouded in the same darkness that taints my soul. Do you have a strong enough light to stand among the shadows? (OC Umbra-born) [All rps are AUs. All characters welcome] Tracking tag: fallendimtiri

He was lingering around the circus grounds, black pants low on his waist and his red zipup hanging open. He had no shirt beneath, his toned stomach pale as the rest of him. His black hair tied in a ponytail. He froze suddenly, looking around. No way.

They were enjoying their time at the circus. His son was definitely getting a kick out of watching the performers, it was evident by the clear look of awe on the small boy’s face and the excitement in his voice. Garry wasn’t as into it, but seeing Xenos like that made it totally worth it. As Xenos watched the performers, Garry took the time to look at their surroundings and watch the different people passing by. And that’s when he saw him.

“D… Dimitri?” That is him, right? He was pretty sure of it. The one circus he decided to take Xenos to happens to be the very one Dimitri decided to travel with? “What a coincidence…” He didn’t know what else to say. He still had feelings for the other, but he wasn’t sure if it was mutual anymore.

Dimitri smiled and led them out of the circus. He found his old truck and opened the door for Garry, “Do you want me to take you home or did you drive her yourself?” Dimitri wasn’t sure what had happened in his absence, but he was sure a lot had happened behind the scene, even if it didn’t show on the surface. He looked at Xenos and closed his eyes tight for a moment. He had grown up so much… Who would have thought. He’d missed so much.

But would they stay away and leave his family alone? He was always running… his past was catching him slowly and it was almost time for the end. Did he have the strength to protect those closest to him and fight? Dimitri’s hand began to tremble at the thought of losing the little piece of heaven he had worked so hard to keep, even if he wasn’t around often. He needed these two beings about as much as he needed air.

🌹 “Oh. I wouldn’t mind you giving us a ride home. We actually walked to the circus since its only just a few blocks away from our place.” he answered and was about to get into the car, but paused when he noticed Dimitri’s expression. It looked like he was deep in thought about something… Or possibly worrying about one thing or another. Garry chewed his lip for a moment before speaking up.

“Hey… Are you alright?” Maybe he was busy and wasn’t actually supposed to be leaving at a time like this? At least, that’s what Garry thought would be the problem here. “… You don’t have to drive us home if you’re busy right now.”

He shook his head, “I don’t mind. I want to go home... I want to take some time off my job and spend some time with you.” He smiled a little and got in, starting the engine. He paused and then a car seat formed in the back for Xenos. “I even remember how to get there... I visited on some occasions...” He whispered, “When you two were asleep.”

Have you ever wondered where books come from?

Well then, let me show you, because that’s what I do for a living.

Right now, it’s this time of the year, and the little ones have just freshly hatched:

You’ll notice they’re still blind and naked when they hatch. So I make them little coats to keep them warm during their first winter:

See how they happily line up to put them on:

See? Better. Now they’re ready to go and explore the world.

And if they make it through the winter and we take good care of them, they will grow up to be strong and wise like their older fellows:

So, in case you were ever wondering, now you know.

“We could get a place to live somewhere in the country. In the middle of no where maybe…? Or do we want neighbors…” He said softly. He held his hand and swung it gently. To be home… How great was this? Dimitri felt kind of sick though… After all he did to Garry and Xenos, they accepted him without much hesitation. He had the greatest family ever. His boyfriend and their son were all he needed in this life. He sighed softly and rubbed his thumb over the back of his hand. “I love you Garry…” He whispered, “Forever and always.”

🌹 “Living somewhere with just the three of us sounds kinda nice. Somewhere surrounded by nature or something, maybe? But neighbors or no neighbors, I’m fine with whichever. though.” Garry answered after a moment of thinking about it and gave Dimitri’s hand a small squeeze as their hands swung back and forth.

Garry doesn’t say it out loud, but hearing his boyfriend say that he loves him and that he always will… He’s glad to hear him saying it. It puts him a little more at ease. After how long he’s been away, he wouldn’t have been surprised if Dimitri had moved on at some point. Garry leans over to press a quick kiss to the his cheek as they walk. “Same here… I’ll always love you.”

Dimitri smiled and led them out of the circus. He found his old truck and opened the door for Garry, “Do you want me to take you home or did you drive her yourself?” Dimitri wasn’t sure what had happened in his absence, but he was sure a lot had happened behind the scene, even if it didn’t show on the surface.

Dimitri blinked and paused for a moment. He then nodded, a smile on his lips. “Ill be coming home to stay. But I will have to come back sometimes. My act is pretty popular…” He said slowly. He scoped up Xenos and held him on his hip. “Lets head home,” he said with a little nod, “Does it still look the same? Maybe we should move… Somewhere big and beautiful. New beginnings.”

🌹 He couldn’t say he was all that surprised to hear Dimitri’s answer to his question. He didn’t mind it, though. As long as Dimitri doesn’t just up and disappear without any warnings like that again, he’s fine with him still being a part of the circus. Garry returned the smile with one of his own as he watched his boyfriend lift their son up.

“Yeah, it’s pretty much just the same as it was before you left.” he answered with a small laugh before holding his hand out towards his in a silent request to hold hands. “Mm… That sounds like a nice idea~”

8. Mmm, wait don't put your hands there! Adalines-blog

Dimitri blinked and stared into the darkness. Always… darkness. But he was chest to chest with someone else. A female, judging by the feel of her curves. He opened his mouth to ask who she was but her words, her voice, said it all. “Adaline?” He asked slowly. He blinked. His hands… He flexed his fingers and a grin spread across his face. He was glad it was dark in this closet. His fingers were flat pressed against her backside.

Dimitri stayed with the girl but he felt horrible about sending her off alone. But he could feel the girl slipping away slowly. His blood wasn’t going to be the only thing she needed. She was most likely going to become infected by some terrible disease from not having the proper care she after the operation. Hopefully, Adaline would find a way out soon.

As she moved along the walls, the stones were smooth… aside from one. One that seemed almost haphazardly placed.

Ada tried to press the stone and move it even trying to pull it out to get some reaction in the wall praying it was a secret passage out. Finally the wall budges and opened up. “Dimitri!” She called him over.

Dimitri blinked and looked up, “Adaline?” With a little more effort than it should have taken, he stood with the hurt girl in his arms and walked toward her voice. “What did you find?” He asked slowly, softly. Weakly. They had to get out of here. Suddenly there was footsteps above them. Dimitri instantly fell quiet and looked at the ceiling. They were heading for the basement door. With a groan, Dimitri began to force shadows toward the door, trying to block it up and hold it closed for the time being.

“Dimitri you can’t keep pushing yourself like this. Go. See if this passage way leads anywhere. I’ll try to hold off the other.” She went to find a tool she can use as a weapon. The footsteps getting louder and closer. “Go.” She demanded pushing him down through the wall.

“Adaline no. I can’t leave you with him! I-I’ll think of something just…” He swayed and barely managed to catch himself on the wall. He girl felt like a car in his arms. “Just give me time to.. think… I’ll figure this out,” He whispered and looked at her, for the first time, with fear in his eyes.

“Your loosing energy go.” She tried to push her power into him. Give him some light to the dark and to give him enough strength to get out. In the midst of shoving him down the hall with her power. The light lit up and died like a firework in the small room. Right before the light could fade between her finger tips and him blood spilled from her lips. A blade had pierced her body. She stood there in shock and a hand reaching out to the other before falling to the ground and fading with the light.

Dimitri stood in shock, staring back from where they came. He set the girl down, pulling the IV from his own arm. “Adaline!” He screamed and ran for the open doorway but the stone wall was put back into place. The lever must have been pulled. Dimitri struck the wall and screamed for her, “Adaline!”

He began to panic, his body shaking with worry. The shadows began to bubble and thicken, absorbing all light that could ever pierce the room’s darkness. He moved back to the girl and began to walk. He’d come back and save Adaline, if he wasn’t to late.

Got you! (Did I make it >~>)

Ada blushed bright red and looked around the room embarrassed. ((You made it ))

He smiled a little and grabbed the chair by its legs, picking it up. He put it on the bed and then managed to move the ropes that bound her wrists to the chair. He hooked her to the headboard and then pulled the chair away, leaving her legs unbound. “Well now... I suppose I should take care of you since you have thoroughly satisfied me,” he said with a sigh and a smirk.

He quietly sat here in her ask box, "Would you like to do something? Anything? I have a free ticket for the circus...?"

Ada looked at the other a little darkly then smiles. “Fine let’s go.” She jumped up and took his hand excited to get out.

He moved and grabbed the bars of the cage. With a heave, he yanked the door open and something burst from the flames. Black as night, it rushed in circles. Its body was still on fire. It seemed to growl, and it had four legs. Its large head stared at Dimitri for a moment and then it turned its attention to the crowd.

Ada blushed bright red and looked around the room embarrassed. ((You made it ))

Dimitri smirked and cocked his head to the side, looking her over. “I can see everything your thinking through your eyes… You can’t hide things from me. Your literally aching for me to read your mind, aren’t you,” He said with a more husky voice. He gently, slowly, ran his tongue along his upper lip and then leaned forward, getting his face closer to hers.

“Even if you could there’s nothing there for you.” She replied with a half smug smile. It was getting harder and harder to lie as she felt every inch of her body come to life from him being so close. She began trying to think of other things. Like hanging out with her brothers. Picking on fancy pants. Flirting with the Italians. Anything to try not to think about Dimitri dominating her.

He smiled and hooked his foot around one of the legs of the chair. With a smirk, he flipped it onto its back, along with her. Legs now in the air, Dimitri moved to stand over her and looked down. “I think we need to finish this before you combust,” He whispered, cocking his head.

He quietly sat here in her ask box, "Would you like to do something? Anything? I have a free ticket for the circus...?"

Ada looked at the other a little darkly then smiles. “Fine let’s go.” She jumped up and took his hand excited to get out.

Suddenly, the lights went out entirely. With a few flickers came horrid noises, growls and screeches from no where. Then the lights flared to life and Dimitri stood in the middle of the tent backed by 3 very big but different shaped cages. He was dressed in a black suit with a red and black checkered tie and a hat that resembled the mad hatters hat from Wonderland. His face was covered by a shadow. And he didn’t say a word– yet.

Ada leaned forward in her seat. She couldn’t help but find his appearance alluring. And after the small flicker and strange sounds she had to know what was in store for her and the audience.

“Should I say its wonderful to see so many tonight. My pets are eager to perform tonight than they have been in forever, or perhaps their just hungrier?” He called and with each step he took forward, shadowy footprints were left behind on the sandy ground of the performance circle. He glanced over the crowd and then with a flick of his wrist, a black flashlight appeared in his hand. He shined it over the cages, “Empty? Or are they?”

He smashed the light on the closest cage and a liquid splashed over it. He snapped his fingers and a match, lit and flaming, appeared in his gloved hand. He tossed it carelessly at the cage. Upon contact, it busted into flames and horrid growling noises rumbled from in the cage, along with what sounded like pained screeches. He repeated this series of actions on the other to cages, each erupting with a new sound and a difference color flame.

The Circus Returns {Closed RP}

“Well my show is about to begin soon? If youd like to watch that…” He said softly, something almost childish in his tone.

“Show? You’re in a show?” She asked excitedly. “I would love to see it! Please, lead the way! Though…you should finish the doughnuts,” she laughed.

He smiled and continued to eat the doughnuts happily. He led the way to the tent, “Please don’t hate me after you see it.”

Guew was confused with his request.

“Hate you? Why would I hate you?” She asked him.

“I am not exactly what you think I am...” He whispered and then stopped outside the guest doorway, “Go inside. I’ll see you when I come out dressed in uniform.”
