This Is Fun, Isn't It?

= Somewhere in the headspace a few yards away from the village a circus tent appears, pitched up and ready for visitors. =

= A lone being sits in the bleachers, formally dressed and looking down at its cracked ceramic mask that bore a grin with yellow accents. It sighed and brought the mask up to their face, it fused directly to their flesh and they breathed deep. What a wonderful feeling it was to have that thing on once more. They clapped their gloved hands together and rose up. =

Well, well, well! New place, new sh0w! I guess we 0ughta make this 0ne g00d!

= It sighed softly as it looked around. =

Perhaps we should find a way to fill these seats up first... I always hated that part of the job.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

*There was the sound of someone aggressively shaking a bottle as they approached the tent. Whoever was here was being pretty quiet but not exactly secretive.*

=The woman in blue catches sight of her and glances to the clown in red who sat on the far other side for the exit, cross legged and grieving over shattered ceramic. Enraptured by stars for the time being. She slips out of sight, pulling back the tent flap further to show them where exactly the victim of this hatred sat.=

[thatsassyfox]

*Her tone of voice was cold as she looked at the clown in red.*

Hello again….

*She was still shaking the spray bottle which had the slightest smell of hot peppers to it.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=He looked up at her a moment, eyes sleepy looking at first before coming to the slow realization that she was one of the three victims.=

...Oh shit.

=He quickly got up and looked at the spray bottle. Well screw that- =

Good bye. Ma'am!

=He sprints away, not wanting any part in this.=

[thatsassyfox]

Oh no you don’t-

*Deirdre sprinted after him. She was surprisingly fast but could they out run her?*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=They keep speed well enough but they've had the ability to stay far out of reach when pursued. It came with working here, he made his choice.=

Look look we can talk-- we can chat!

=He's frantic, he's panicking. He doesn't want pain juice in his eyes but he wasn't afraid of pain juice.=

[thatsassyfox]

Oh no dearie I don’t think we can talk about this!

*She was still on the chase after they. Deirdre’s pace did speed up after a few strides. Yeah she wasn’t giving up that easy.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

LADY PLS!!

=Off he goes, jumping over a particularly large rock and looping around to get back inside. What was she thinking?? This lady is mental. Absolutely mental.=

[thatsassyfox]

*She stopped chasing the red clown for a few moments before slowly walking back inside. Deirdre’s pace was as slower then before but she didn’t look out of breath likely just waiting for any other chance to chase the clown.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=He rolled into the tent, losing the general well keptness of his dress. His front was covered with dust and dirt now as he wheezes out a cough. Safe... probably.*

[thatsassyfox]

*All was quiet… too quiet… there was the nail sound that sounded like dog nails when they hit a rock or something.*

Hello…

*Deirdre’s tone was still cold as she aimed the spray bottle at the clown from behind them.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=He froze not even daring to look behind him out of fear for his eyes and face. All while Dee sat up in the bleachers, one leg over the other as she ate popcorn. Q frowned as he looked up at her who waved with a mockingly sweet smile... Bitches... The both of these women. He huffed, crossing his arms.=

0k 0k you Win. Make it quick.

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre cracked a smile.*

Turn around and pick a number from one to ten. Also who’s your buddy over there?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=This confused him he turned around and looked at her, brows furrowed and frowning.=

Oh that's- *sigh* that's Dee. But uh 7?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Looks like it’s time to get popcorn!

=The ringleader, Dee is what we'll call her, already has the popcorn out. Her legs crossed on the bleachers with that sinister little smirk. Oh, he deserved this from the moment he set foot in the headspace. While she would torment him herself it was more fun to watch others have their swing at him or the others... Speaking of which where did they go? She'll figure it out later.=

[thecircustentofhorrors]

*Unplugs the rock tumbler.*

How was the tumble?

=The slurry of rock and ceramic media was a deep dark purple nearly black. He sticks his head out eyes a spiral color. He opens his mouth yo speak but thick gray static pours from his mouth and onto the floor.=

[thecircustentofhorrors]

*Throws you into a rock tumbler.*

Get tumbled bitch

=You toss the clown=

WAIT--

=The sounds of ceramic media and multicolored stones clattering into eachother fills the air, drowning out any screams that he screeches. The ringleader only smiles, sitting on the side lines, popcorn prepared for this very moment.=

[thecircustentofhorrors]

I think the fox lady you met is plotting revenge. Just a heads up.

I wouldn't doubt it.

Serves him right.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=It exhaled a long sigh as they cracked their bloodied knuckles, staring down at the red haired girl-- well, now she was red haired with her own blood staining her lengthy strawberry blonde hair from the blood that spilled from her abdomen now pooling beneath her. She heaved breath after dying breath as she stared up at it, tears glistening in her blue eyes. She mouthed words that only came out as whispering breaths and groans. If she had the common sense she would have begged for her life. But it only mocked her with a chuckle, shaking it's head.=

And here I was thinking you'd be the one. You looked so much like she did before my departure

=She swallowed before she slowly pulled her legs up. It's not like anyone would miss her anyways... Not an insignificant pawn such as her. She whispered her final words with her final dying breath.=

"You're a monster..."

Ah, I suppose I would be. But aren't we all at the end of the day? Now just close your eyes, it's about night time you know?

=And with that he turned at the heel and left the rotting house. He let loose a disappointed sigh. Disappointment after disappointment after dying disappointment. Was what it was looking for even here? Could it be out here? There was no possible way. No feasible way... And yet he kept chasing whatever mystical figures were out there. Then something caught it's eye. A figure approaching rapidly.=

Wh-

=Suddenly, a fist came flying towards his face and connected with the mask on his face simultaneously breaking it in two and knocking him to the floor. His pine green eyes stared up at the person who wore similar to a ring master's uniform. Her fist was shaking at him.=

Of. All the things I have said did you not listen to a damn thing I said?!

I-I-

I have no time for this, get your ass back to your tent. Now.

I er... Yes. Yes Ma'am.

=He glanced down to the mask which she stomped a heeled boot on, the breaking of porcelain followed causing him to flinch back. A red mark from where the mask broke and her fist connected forming just beneath his eye. That would leave a nasty mark... He picked himself up and gave a firm nod before leaning down to pick up the pieces, smiling to himself all the while. That's one part... The second a piece of the mask was picked up he was shoved firmly.=

Don't even bother with it.

Right. Okay.

[thatsassyfox]

= The tapping of glass could be heard right in the front room. Loud enough to grab attention but quiet enough to not break the glass. =

*She turned towards the sound. She got up with a small grumble.*

Altair I swear-

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=For a long minute nobody was there and then a white gloved hand slapped against the window, mask soon following to greet her.=

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre jumped back when the hand hit the window. She stared at them for a few moments before she walked off. A few seconds later the front door opened.*

What do you want?

*Deirdre’s nose and under eyes were a lovely shade of purple from the fight she had with Altair a few days before. She didn’t exactly looked pleased that she was being bothered.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

00000h, n0thing really. Just came ar0und. Making my r0unds ar0und town!

=It chuckles softly, making its way over to the door. Tall, thin, well dressed figure that being with fluffier purple hair to contrast with the golden decorations on it's mask.=

Intr0ducing 0urselves, n0thing maj0r.

=It noticed the bruising and would have frowned if not for the forever grinning ceramic mask.=

[thatsassyfox]

Well.. pleasure meeting you.

*Deirdre gave it an obviously fake smile.*

So.

What is it you want?

*The fake smile had quickly faded away. She did still stand there in the doorway with the door wide open.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

0h, n0thing. Just c0ming around... L00king f0r village residents 0f interest t0 us. If y0u'd kn0w any0ne.

= It clicks it's tongue. =

Besides the ah. Scientist.

[thatsassyfox]

Mmm… right.

Mind defining “Of interest” for me?

*She was looking it up and down. She did not trust it what so ever.*

By the Scientist do you mean the guy with theatre mask that’s frowning?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Juuuuust vici0us individuals. Y0u kn0w. 0f interest to me.

[thatsassyfox]

*She got the look of ‘why me’.*

So individuals who you shouldn’t piss off?

*She let out another small grumble.*

What do you want with them anyways?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Mmmmmm n0 reason.

Just l00king t0 pass the time. See what it takes t0 push them.

[thatsassyfox]

Right right. That’s totally believable.

*Deirdre rolled her eyes.*

Well if you’re looking for someone to bother I’m not in the mood, I’m sure you can find someone of interest else where.

*They then basically shut the door in its face.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It stuck it's foot in the doorway with a chuckle. =

Cute. Buuut I think I might have already f0und wh0 I am looking f0r.

[thatsassyfox]

Yeah, sure ya did.

*Deirdre made an attempt to kick its foot to hopefully be able to shut the door.*

I’m busy, I don’t have time for this.

*If someone were to pay close attention to Deirdre it’d be pretty easy to tell that she was getting annoyed with it. She just wanted to be left alone.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It doesn't budge. A hand stronger than hers grabs hold of the door and attempts to push it open further. Waht about her? Does she have some bizzare ability she'd love to display for the crowd tonight? =

Ah, that's what the last 0ne said! This'll be quick, I swear.

[thatsassyfox]

Thanks for the offer but really, I have shit I’ve gotta get to. I have dinner to make.

*She did her best to keep the door from opening up.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It's quite strong though, door inching open even if it is slowly but they could slip in if they wanted to. It's not something that could die anyways. It just wants a show. =

Aw c0me along n0w, just a quick sh0w? I'll make sure it's quick.

[thatsassyfox]

No. And that is my final answer. *She then suddenly let go of the door and made a run for her kitchen. Once in the kitchen Deirdre grabbed one of the knives that were there.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= They're quick to step inside, kicking the door shut and locking it before walking into the kitchen so casually. As if she had just invited them inside! Tch. Why do they always run. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre was standing in the kitchen, the kitchen knife in hand almost like she was waiting for it. Her tail swished as she waited, why must they bother her. They didn't appear to be scared but it was unknown if she was just hiding that she was or if they really weren't thought it was clear Deirdre was rather annoyed.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= They could care less, looking at the knife and chuckling softly. =

That's nice. Mine's better.

= They draw their dagger and lunge for her, aiming to stab her in the shoulder. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre scrambled out of the way, her nails scratching against the floor. Deirdre did manage to get out of the way of it as she ran to the other side of her kitchen which was on the other side of an island.*

Yeah maybe because this one isn't actually meant for this.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

M0st likely.

= They're not here to play games though they jump onto the island, launching themselves off it and right into Deirdre. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre was unlucky this time as it actually managed to get to Deirdre. She did end up falling and actually hit her head on the tile floor which did cause Deirdre to not exactly realize what had just happened as it dazed her. Once they actually figured out what was going on Deirdre made her best effort to push them away however not once did Deirdre actually try to use the knife she has grabbed.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It kept her down with it's sheer body weight, flipping the blade around in their hand before plunging it down into her left shoulder. It tsked. =

C'm0n. I th0ught y0u'd be better at this. Push back with a bit more. Y0u're capable of it. Everyb0dy here is.

[thatsassyfox]

*She winced before clocking it in the jaw. The pain from her injury didn’t seem to slow her down at all.*

Maybe because I’m not in the mood for this I’ve had enough of fighting for the time being.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Have y0u really? 0r are you just telling y0urself that?

= It turned to face her ceramic mask now slightly crooked. It pushes the knife deeper, twisting it excruciatingly slowly in her shoulder. =

D0n't y0u kn0w? All the civility is n0thing but a disguise. Hit Harder. 0r will y0u ch00se t0 die t0 a nameless entity?

= It readied it's hand ready to snag the next blow she'd attempt on it. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Rather then trying to throw a punch she used her fox like legs to claw at them and tried to push them off.*

Oh how thoughtful to say that, wouldn’t be the first time anyways.

*She did her best to keep it hidden that she was in pain.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= There's a small budge, a chance to shove them off. Not because they're heavy but they're pushing into her hand. They tore out the knife, tearing more of her up before switching hands and stabbing into her other shoulder, this time using their fist to tamp it in deeper. =

= Once pristine white gloves had been tainted with blue bloods. Is that all you've got? Any rips in fabric and flesh prove to be nearly but never enough. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Rather then trying to fight back it seemed that she just had given up. Deirdre just closed her eyes, taking the pain. Her shirt had been stained a lovely shade of blue around where she was stabbed.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= They jerked out the knife, wiggling it out with a scoff. They'd get up off of her and step back just to give her a rather firm kick in the side. Wasting their time, time after time again. First they wasted it on the first wretch and now this one hardly has any fight left in her. They give the body a shove. Lack of response and hardly any strength. Might as well just leave her to bleed out. They've wasted enough time here. =

Fucking... Ugh.

= Nobody's ever any fun here. They've done their damage. They'll see themselves out. Hopefully this one dies. Survival of the fittest and all. They clean their knife as they leave, slamming the door shut behind them hard enough to shake the entire house. =

[thatsassyfox]

= The tapping of glass could be heard right in the front room. Loud enough to grab attention but quiet enough to not break the glass. =

*She turned towards the sound. She got up with a small grumble.*

= They draw their dagger and lunge for her, aiming to stab her in the shoulder. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre scrambled out of the way, her nails scratching against the floor. Deirdre did manage to get out of the way of it as she ran to the other side of her kitchen which was on the other side of an island.*

Yeah maybe because this one isn't actually meant for this.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

M0st likely.

= They're not here to play games though they jump onto the island, launching themselves off it and right into Deirdre. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre was unlucky this time as it actually managed to get to Deirdre. She did end up falling and actually hit her head on the tile floor which did cause Deirdre to not exactly realize what had just happened as it dazed her. Once they actually figured out what was going on Deirdre made her best effort to push them away however not once did Deirdre actually try to use the knife she has grabbed.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It kept her down with it's sheer body weight, flipping the blade around in their hand before plunging it down into her left shoulder. It tsked. =

C'm0n. I th0ught y0u'd be better at this. Push back with a bit more. Y0u're capable of it. Everyb0dy here is.

[thatsassyfox]

*She winced before clocking it in the jaw. The pain from her injury didn’t seem to slow her down at all.*

Maybe because I’m not in the mood for this I’ve had enough of fighting for the time being.

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Have y0u really? 0r are you just telling y0urself that?

= It turned to face her ceramic mask now slightly crooked. It pushes the knife deeper, twisting it excruciatingly slowly in her shoulder. =

D0n't y0u kn0w? All the civility is n0thing but a disguise. Hit Harder. 0r will y0u ch00se t0 die t0 a nameless entity?

= It readied it's hand ready to snag the next blow she'd attempt on it. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Rather then trying to throw a punch she used her fox like legs to claw at them and tried to push them off.*

Oh how thoughtful to say that, wouldn’t be the first time anyways.

*She did her best to keep it hidden that she was in pain.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= There's a small budge, a chance to shove them off. Not because they're heavy but they're pushing into her hand. They tore out the knife, tearing more of her up before switching hands and stabbing into her other shoulder, this time using their fist to tamp it in deeper. =

= Once pristine white gloves had been tainted with blue bloods. Is that all you've got? Any rips in fabric and flesh prove to be nearly but never enough. =

[thatsassyfox]

= The tapping of glass could be heard right in the front room. Loud enough to grab attention but quiet enough to not break the glass. =

*She turned towards the sound. She got up with a small grumble.*

Altair I swear-

[thecircustentofhorrors]

=For a long minute nobody was there and then a white gloved hand slapped against the window, mask soon following to greet her.=

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre jumped back when the hand hit the window. She stared at them for a few moments before she walked off. A few seconds later the front door opened.*

What do you want?

*Deirdre’s nose and under eyes were a lovely shade of purple from the fight she had with Altair a few days before. She didn’t exactly looked pleased that she was being bothered.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

00000h, n0thing really. Just came ar0und. Making my r0unds ar0und town!

=It chuckles softly, making its way over to the door. Tall, thin, well dressed figure that being with fluffier purple hair to contrast with the golden decorations on it's mask.=

Intr0ducing 0urselves, n0thing maj0r.

=It noticed the bruising and would have frowned if not for the forever grinning ceramic mask.=

[thatsassyfox]

Well.. pleasure meeting you.

*Deirdre gave it an obviously fake smile.*

So.

What is it you want?

*The fake smile had quickly faded away. She did still stand there in the doorway with the door wide open.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

0h, n0thing. Just c0ming around... L00king f0r village residents 0f interest t0 us. If y0u'd kn0w any0ne.

= It clicks it's tongue. =

Besides the ah. Scientist.

[thatsassyfox]

Mmm… right.

Mind defining “Of interest” for me?

*She was looking it up and down. She did not trust it what so ever.*

By the Scientist do you mean the guy with theatre mask that’s frowning?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Juuuuust vici0us individuals. Y0u kn0w. 0f interest to me.

[thatsassyfox]

*She got the look of ‘why me’.*

So individuals who you shouldn’t piss off?

*She let out another small grumble.*

What do you want with them anyways?

[thecircustentofhorrors]

Mmmmmm n0 reason.

Just l00king t0 pass the time. See what it takes t0 push them.

[thatsassyfox]

Right right. That’s totally believable.

*Deirdre rolled her eyes.*

Well if you’re looking for someone to bother I’m not in the mood, I’m sure you can find someone of interest else where.

*They then basically shut the door in its face.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It stuck it's foot in the doorway with a chuckle. =

Cute. Buuut I think I might have already f0und wh0 I am looking f0r.

[thatsassyfox]

Yeah, sure ya did.

*Deirdre made an attempt to kick its foot to hopefully be able to shut the door.*

I’m busy, I don’t have time for this.

*If someone were to pay close attention to Deirdre it’d be pretty easy to tell that she was getting annoyed with it. She just wanted to be left alone.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It doesn't budge. A hand stronger than hers grabs hold of the door and attempts to push it open further. Waht about her? Does she have some bizzare ability she'd love to display for the crowd tonight? =

Ah, that's what the last 0ne said! This'll be quick, I swear.

[thatsassyfox]

Thanks for the offer but really, I have shit I’ve gotta get to. I have dinner to make.

*She did her best to keep the door from opening up.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= It's quite strong though, door inching open even if it is slowly but they could slip in if they wanted to. It's not something that could die anyways. It just wants a show. =

Aw c0me along n0w, just a quick sh0w? I'll make sure it's quick.

[thatsassyfox]

No. And that is my final answer. *She then suddenly let go of the door and made a run for her kitchen. Once in the kitchen Deirdre grabbed one of the knives that were there.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= They're quick to step inside, kicking the door shut and locking it before walking into the kitchen so casually. As if she had just invited them inside! Tch. Why do they always run. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre was standing in the kitchen, the kitchen knife in hand almost like she was waiting for it. Her tail swished as she waited, why must they bother her. They didn't appear to be scared but it was unknown if she was just hiding that she was or if they really weren't thought it was clear Deirdre was rather annoyed.*

[thecircustentofhorrors]

= They could care less, looking at the knife and chuckling softly. =

That's nice. Mine's better.

= They draw their dagger and lunge for her, aiming to stab her in the shoulder. =

[thatsassyfox]

*Deirdre scrambled out of the way, her nails scratching against the floor. Deirdre did manage to get out of the way of it as she ran to the other side of her kitchen which was on the other side of an island.*
