Dear god Darth. Hope it’s okay for me to ask these few questions about the Tfc cast members among your godly presence(I hope you can tell I’m trying to flatter so I’m not so intimidated),
1. If we were to take Ticket Taker’s “Don’t trust your eyes” saying seriously, and since he thinks we’re pretty(if I’m correct), how would he react if he were to tell us we’re pretty just for us to say “damn, I’m hallucinating again.”?
2. If we held their hands, how would they react?
3. If we were to swoon them, what would be their favorable way to have a date/show affection?
Hope these were good questions/that it’s okay to ask, hope you have a good day!
Hello! Also goodness! I'd consider myself more of an underpaid intern angelic messenger than anything else (/silly), though I'm happy as long as I'm not intimidating to people— I try to be approachable! :D
Standard note of assuming in these scenarios that the MC/you are on familiar/positive terms with the circus troupe:
I think it would largely depend if he feels like you're being genuine or silly/bratty in saying something like that! If TT thinks you're being genuine, then I like to think he'd find that kind of reply just a little endearing— you're taking his previous warning very seriously, though he'd assure you that it doesn't mean it applies to everything he says and does with a gentle chuckle. If you're purposefully being a brat or sassy however, he would give you the HARDEST glare at best, perhaps even a gentle thump on the head, then repeat the statement. (Also yes, you remembered correctly, the character who said that in the 'bad end' is TT!)
Pierrot - Squeezes your hand in his, completely endeared by you and unwilling to let go of your hand for anything less than you overtly (and possibly repeatedly) asking for it back. Absolutely would make sure your fingers are entwined. Harlequin - Makes a joke (likely sexual) and tries to pull his hand back unless your grip is firm and, slowly, you'll feel his hand grip yours in kind in a way that seems to get tighter the longer it lingers. Doctor - Seems a bit confused at first, perhaps even asking if there was something specific you needed before chuckling, trying to continue with whatever task or he's doing without letting go. Ticket Taker - Doesn't react for a moment or two before he simply levels you an unreadable look. If he's busy with a job or a task he may politely tell you that he's working on something at the moment and give you time to let his hand go— otherwise he wouldn't say much, but carefully entwine your fingers with his. Jester - He doesn't say anything outside of a soft hum or a flick of his eyes on you. If the attempt of hand-holding lingers he may make a comment ("And what does a lost little thing need?") before carefully adjusting your hands so that his is covering yours or in a way that he is partially holding onto your wrist instead.
Pierrot could be swooned by almost anything in all honesty (though I think he'd appreciate gifts and sweet words of appreciation and adoration), while Harlequin would require something more than words since those are so easily twisted or meaningless— actions and quality time would likely do the most impact, but you'd have to go against whatever sense of self-loathing and self-sabotaging he's got going on when it comes to emotional vulnerability Doctor seems like he'd respond best to quality time or receiving things that would be useful or meaningful to him, basically something that is a very obvious or overt act of interest since its easier for him to miss something subtle or passing. Ticket Taker might appreciate someone giving him a gift that's utilitarian, something that could help in what he does for the circus, but I think he'd also like an accessory that would go with his well-cared-for attire. Going out of your way to help run errands definitely would be good too! Jester would be the hardest to swoon, and he would not take words (they can be lies) or gifts (they can be malicious). For him, it is the simplest yet hardest act of proving yourself as someone who cares and is loyal. Do things that help the circus, go out of your way to try and learn about them and internalize that information. It's easy to say 'I love you' and gift someone gifts and take them on a date, but he wants you to mean it— and that's only proven with time and effort and action.
