Hey there! Hope Ur having a lovely day/night! Please do feel free to ignore this and i'm sorry if you've been asked this before, but since i love the way you write TFC characters and i enjoy comparing headcanons id like to know what you think Is something that'd make each circus member laugh? Like, in general. I've had a hard time imagining it, with so little we know about them. It goes BEYOND my comprehension what would make a mind like Jester's amused (given the twisted sense of humor I THINK he has-) but then again i also can't picture some type of situation or joke that would please someone like Pierrot either. Just rambling, please excuse any grammar errors, english Is not my first lenguage 🥀 love your work!
Ohh interestingggggg what would make them laugh??
Pierrot: He'd like kind humor--the sort of thing that's not too mean to the character's involved. Lighter shows like Full House, Golden Girls, Brooklyn 99, Bob's Burgers, Parks n' Rec, or early John Mulaney stand-up would be more up his alley. Sitcoms in general are a safe bet. The boi is sweet and deals with enough harshness throughout the day--so for him to enjoy humor or find it as an escape, he'd need something light~
Harlequin: Opposite. This boi would watch Jackass and think that they don't go far enough. He'd be down for 'some' insult comedy, as long as he understood who was being insulted---after all, it's not like he watches 'much' tv and, like the rest of the circus members, he also has gone through some shit. But he'd like more cutting edge humor, something he can sink his teeth into--something WITTY. Harley would appreciate the scathing moments in Bojack Horseman, Rick and Morty (though he might be confused by the randomness in both shows), Family Guy, Simpsons/Futurama, Taylor Tomlinson, The Scary Movie franchise (both ironically and unironically)---hell, he might like the sassiness of Golden Girls too XD though I doubt he'd admit it.
Jester: Jester prefers more intelligent comedy, preferably something witty but also works on multiple levels. He'd likely watch Frasier, Schitts Creek, AP Bio,---Hell, he might even like 'some' british humor, save for the parts where they won't stop showing butts and toilets every 5 seconds. Though it is possible that Jester might find some films/people funny when they aren't. Don't be surprised if he's suddenly watching a tear-jerker drama and breaks out into a chuckle here and there. It might get a mixed reaction from him if you start calling random people 'appetizers' around him---he may laugh, sure, but he'd also stare at you for awhile before walking away. It depends on his mood really.
TicketTaker: Also would prefer more intelligent comedy, likely catches an episode of Frasier here and there and wishing Kelsey Grammer would get eaten for being too arrogant, as he'd expect a human to be. TT isn't really about comedy in general, though he might laugh if you make fun of the more unruly customers around him for littering/creating noise/being human, etc.
Doctor: Doctor is adorable <3 I think he'd find more slapstick comedy to be fun like The Goes Wrong Show, The Office, Family Matters (also for the science), and perhaps......puns. Idk what it is about this man but i feel like he'd be amused by a GOOD pun. Just tell him about his refrigerator running and at first he'll take you seriously before realizing hours later what you really meant--then he hunts you down, finds you, laughs super loud, tells you he got the joke and wants to hear another.
