sun: do you believe optimism is always good? what do you have optimism in?

ASK MEME // SUN: do you believe optimism is always good? what do you have optimism in?

Optimism was a tool for the weak who needed something to believe in when they’re own gifts weren’t enough to get them through. A word that people used to hide the fact that they were scared of the uncertain. Michelle was anything but an optimist, but, she did understand the need for optimism when you had nothing else to lean on. However, regardless of how much you believed that smiling through any situation would cause you to achieve your goals, it wasn’t always the case. Michelle had learnt that from a very young age.

“Optimism isn’t always good, but it can be a great tool!” she exclaimed. “Especially when it comes to speaking about my talents as a magician and the things that it shall bring me. After all, I am a master at my trade, hehe~!” Michelle paused. “However, it is the fear of the uncertain and the idea of doubt that causes me to be so successful, so if people believed I could pull off my tricks, they wouldn’t come.”

Michelle smiled. “It all has to do with context! Context is key, hehe!”

fool

ASK MEME // FOOL: what’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken?

Such an easy question. Heck, there were a lot of risks that she had to take in life to get even remotely close to where she wanted to be. Asking suitors for expensive gifts just to sell them for money to provide for her brother when her parents were too busy drinking, performing as a gypsy in front of people who could arrest her and have her thrown in jail at any point. They were all risks that she took but not with choice. There was only one incident in her life that stood out as her biggest risk taken voluntarily.

“Well...” she began. “I joined the circus when I was a teenager~!” Michelle exclaimed, flashing a smile. “I didn’t exactly run away from home or anything, but leaving a town that I had slowly become comfortable with was a huge risk! Let me tell you now though, it’s certainly paid off!” The pinkette giggled. “I mean look at me, I’m my own act now! And I’m cute to boot!”

hermit

ASK MEME // HERMIT: what are you like when you’re alone?

There were two ways that such a question could be answered. Two different meanings, one more cynical than the other. What did she like to do when she was alone. Michelle would maintain a smile despite the constant firing of ideas in her head which otherwise would leave any other person with a dazed and confused look plastered on their face. It was open and obvious that Michelle liked to practise magic when she was by herself, however, there was also something else she liked to do when she was alone. She liked to think, she liked to imagine, she liked to escape. The world was scary and magic was the only thing that was her saviour. When she was alone, not even magic could save her from her thoughts.

Regardless Michelle shrugged and flashed a signature smile. “What do I do when I’m alone? I practise magic, silly!” she exclaimed, twirling her baton. “I’m a magician, what else would I do?”

Home Visit | Neil&Michelle

@mooslikejagger

Today was going to be a mission, Michelle could already feel it in her blood. Everyone in the village had made an effort to come to her shows at least once in their lives. Who wouldn’t? It was just some good ol’ fashioned fun where you could sit down, relax and have a good laugh while enjoying some spectacular magic tricks and watching a cute girl like herself perform. Well, that question would soon be answered when she realised a particular blonde hadn’t even made an appearance at one of her shows yet.

A particular blonde by the name of Neil.

There was something completely insufferable about the boy that made Michelle wince at the idea of talking to him. He was just so negative. Even coming from herself, someone who hated most people with a passion, at least she had the decency to at least attempt to be friendly with those she conversed with. Neil was just a piece of work, and their personalities clashed like nothing else. 

But Michelle, being the person she was, would not stop until she got that boy to come to at least one of her shows. It was just insulting to her knowing that she still hadn’t managed to get one person out of an entire village’s worth of people. Surely it couldn’t be that hard right? Just add some cute charm and she would have him nabbed up like any other guy that laid eyes on her. Of course, just to make it even more special, she would pay him a home visit to make her ploy just that little bit more convincing.

Knock... No answer. Knock knock... No answer. Knock knock knock... No answer. Goddess, just how rude did this boy have to be. Michelle’s hand reached for the doorknob. A gentle twist of the knob revealed that the house was... open? Interesting. Pushing the door open, Michelle’s smile turned into a visible frown as she laid eyes on the boy who was just sitting at the dining table. He ignored her? Good goddess she was sick of him already.

“What in goddess’ name?!” she exclaimed, placing her hands on her hips as she stood at the door. “Couldn’t you have at least answered and told me you were busy instead of ignoring me? Why are you so rude!”

No response. She invited herself in by taking a step through the door. “I guess I’ll cut to the chase. Why haven’t you been to any of my magic shows? I’ve invited you so many times by letter and no response! I just wanted to know why. It’s quite interesting seeing someone who can resist my magical talent as well as my shows!” a small smile appeared on her features. “I’m genuinely curious.”

Partner in Magic | Felicity&Michelle

@foodiefeli

“... So that concludes Thursday’s show for this week! Magic and good food, what could be any better? Nothing of course! Thank you all for coming, I hope to see you all Monday~!” Michelle concluded, taking a bow while removing her top hat like any good magician did. Another show completed to the utmost perfection. Of course, there was nothing less to be expected from someone like Michelle. Watching the people flood out with the close of the restaurant, the pinkette waited patiently before getting off the stage. Manners as a performer was of the utmost importance, and leaving before your audience was a no go.

When the last person had exited the restaurant, Michelle hopped off the stage and advanced towards her favourite waitress at Clement’s. A beautiful blonde girl by the name of Felicity always caught her eye. She was just so cute! Definitely the kind of girl she could manage being friends with. The two of them hadn’t spoken much as Michelle was almost always in a hurry to get home and continue practising, but it seemed that she felt like making an exception today. 

“Fe-li-ci-ty~! How are you? I feel that we never get the chance to talk and it’s honestly a shame!” the pinkette chimed, leaning on a counter of some sorts as she watched the girl cleaning up from behind, flashing the girl one of her signature smiles. Her smile was charming, and she knew that. As she always concluded, if you had a weapon such as utmost adorableness, why not use it?

“Say, Feli? Can I call you that? I just feel that a cute girl needs a cute nickname!” she began, before shaking her head. There was a reason she had approached her in the first place, and now she was going off topic. Hmm, oh well, at least it made the interaction sound a little more genuine. “Of course, I totally understand if you don’t want me to. We’re not very close but I definitely wish we could be.”

Michelle paused. “I have an idea! Why don’t you join me as an assistant in one of my magic shows sometime! I’d love to have such a cute girl perform with me! Imagine all the customers we could attract.” she proposed. “Sounds like a great girly bonding experience too, hehe~!”
