private && selective poppet and widget murray from the night circus. written by noji.
“i didn’t steal any of these, actually.” a pocket-watch, a bracelet, and various other shiny trinkets, all piled on the floor after his bag had ripped. “i found them,” he insisted, very seriously. “on the ground.”
“of course,” unwavering agreement, his face just as stern. “an awful mess, isn’t it? what kind of person do you think they belong to? they all have such a shiny attribute to them.”
“we can’t have a moment of leisure, can we?”

stranger.
jamie, who’s focus had zoned in purely on tracking down some out of control beast, stops in his tracks. he narrows his eyes at the other, both agitated and confused at why anyone else would be out here at this time.
“who are you? park ranger or something?" nothing about her screams law enforcement…
"trust me, you should be the one walking the other way.”
a park ranger. poppet wanted to sigh at this lost opportunity. she couldn’t exactly whip out a ranger outfit out of nowhere, though, much less imagine what that sort of thing looked like, so her options lay in focusing on the now. until ‘the now’ spoke, and a spark of annoyance flashed across her freckled face.
“unless you’re resistant to fire, sir, i doubt that very much.” she insisted. ah, but that tone wouldn’t work. she cleared her throat and clasped her hands before her, regaining her composure.
“i’m sorry, it’s been an awfully long night. but it is dangerous. i’m afraid i can’t let you pass.”
“i feel like if i can wander around, look at art, and read a good book, i could be satisfied for life. isn’t that what we live for, after all? art?”

thinks about poppet intensely. how is she supposed to see the deaths of two (2) people as early as a toddler and then be normal abt her powers.

⚠ : How does your muse react to possibly dangerous situations? Do they face them head-on, or do they plan out their actions first?
poppet faces dangerous situations head-on for certain. most of the time, it’s because she foresaw the dangerous thing in the stars or a dream, and she feels a certain amount of obligation to prevent it from happening. this belief partly stems from multiple terrible visions having come to fruition over the course of her life. she considers this a personal failure, despite the fact that she couldn’t have done much in the first place.
while she makes attempts to decipher her visions, it barely counts as planning anything through. oftentimes, poppet will act without a concrete understanding of the danger to come. timing is the trickiest to guess, so she believes the sooner she acts, the better.
this applies to any issues she may be facing outside of her visions as well. she despises leaving things unresolved and opts for fixing them as soon as possible. this leads her to overlooking several details, however.

bewilderment shone in charlie’s expression as the other went on. her gaze flicked toward the lights the woman indicated. they’re going to fall. a frightening claim, given the damage such an accident would cause — both to the stage and to any unfortunate actors below. to charlie, however, the lights looked secure. surely the woman couldn’t have crept around backstage long enough to closely inspect the lights or rigging. worry swirled in charlie’s stomach at the utter conviction in the other’s demeanor, though.
still, at the moment, charlie was less worried about the lights and more worried about the woman’s obvious distress. she took a breath and raised her hands before her chest in a gentle pacifying gesture, voice kept calm. “okay, okay. alright. i believe you.” she wasn’t sure whether she believed her yet, actually, but this felt like the right thing to say.
“here, um… i’ll…” charlie’s brow furrowed as she struggled to determine the best course of action. she could handle this on her own… probably. “i’ll check the rigging,” she decided at last. a nearby rack of costumes sparked an idea in her mind. she rifled through them a moment before withdrawing a deep purple cloak, befitting an actor who belonged in such a spot. “here—” she offered it to the other with a reassuring smile. “you’ll stand out a bit less with this. d’you want to come along or wait here?”
poppet had a vague suspicion that she was being hushed like a distressed toddler, and although it was no unreasonable a reaction, she couldn’t help biting her lip in frustration. what was she to do? explain her visions? even within her tent, those claims were hardly believable.
still, the girl seemed to at least consider her warning. hope fluttered in her chest. however, the girl proceeded to withdraw a cloak from a rack of costumes, and poppet’s brows raised, startled. poppet opened her mouth, producing only a soft “ah---” that likely did her no favors at all. she’d been fully expecting to be dismissed or exposed, not supplied with a disguise. she also hadn’t considered the possibility of coming along.
“can i come?” tentative, she accepted the cloak. it reached down to her knees and coated her hair perfectly. eyes travelling upwards again---less inspecting the lights than searching for stars---poppet gave a short, decisive hum. “might be easier to spot the faulty mechanism if i’m there.” plus, if something were to go wrong, she’d be there to stop it. “if it isn’t too much trouble, i’d like to join you.”
