“Sorry !  Sorry I swear I didn’t mean to do that.”  Boomer said.

“Why thank you. “ Kalus loved being showered in flattery , and ate it up like 00.01 ate cookies. “ It’s an old imported real leather. My brother bought it for me for my 25th birthday. It’s too expensive for you.” He wasn’t the nicest guy so he really didn’t care if this small boy was upset. Looking down at his feet , he remembered the present body. “ Fuck, wait. You do see the body don’t you?” 

“Probably.  Then again money is still weird for me so who knows.”  Boomer isn’t even phased.  “What. . .oh that one !”  boomer said, looking to the face.  Oh that’s him. . .wait a minute. . .no that’ snot him.  “Poor guy.  Hope the bad guys didn’t get to them.”

“Well you don’t have to be lonely anymore.” Jaya was relieved more than anything. There was hope to see her family again , to see the people from home. She’d tried driving home , but the feeling of sickness had her coming back to dc as soon as she hit Baltimore. Jaya felt tears well up in her eyes and soon she found herself crying , her arms wrapped tightly around the human version of her canine companion. 

Boomer squeezes her.  “It’s okay Rook. . .don’t cry.”  He rubs her back.  

[shiboudforndia]

“The psychic impression of the body clinches it. This isn’t an android or a test-tube clone. This is really you, and you’re dead.” Klaus’s hand is hovering over the body , covered all in tarp except for the face ,which was uncovered. He looks up at the other and smiles , shrugging . “ Sorry about that , and I thought having one of you around was bad enough. “

[thepureofheart]

Boomer tilts his head.  “I have. . .no idea what you said but I like your coat.”

Jaya wasn’t prepared for this. She was confused, sure , but didn’t immediately recognize it as her friend. Boomer was a good dog , and Rae-rae had been a close friend of her and her family as well . She’d taken good care of him after what happened to rae-rae. With everything going on in this world , it really wasn’t hard to believe that it was her friend. “ Boomer? Oh my god. “She smiled and hugged back , the hug being different from the usual head scratches she usually gave him , but it had the same amount of affection. “I’m glad you’re the first thing I see from home … and you’re human now. That’s  , that’s wild!” 

“I’m like you !  I don’t know how but. . .I’m here !  I was lonely for so long.”  Boomer said and squeezes his friend; the woman who saved him from the cage and took him in after his family died (his second set).

“I think It’d be in your best interest to quiet down.”The Junior Deputy walked over to the person , smiling a sweet , mother like smile. At her hip ,she showed a police badge. While not in uniform, she was still in the area , and still had some jurisdiction. “You’re causing a scene. If you’re in trouble I can help you. IF you’re causing trouble , I can help you in another way.” 

[thepureofheart]

“But Rook it’s me !  It’s Boomer !  Hi Rook !”  HE smiled, hugging his mother figure (well in his mind at least)

“Oh?” He questioned, brow raising. “Then what do I look like, if not practically dead?”

“You look. . .tired.  Not dead.”  He’s seen dead and dead don’t look like that.

“No need.” Danny tells the other, a ghost of a rueful smile on his face. “’M sure I look like death warmed over.”

“No I don’t think so.”  Boomer said with a tilt of his head.

Danny drew his gaze from the book he had been trying- and failing horribly- to read. He was actually pretty sure he had read this page at least three times already.  But that didn’t matter as he lazily looked up at the one who addressed him. “I look tired?” Danny parroted, a hint of amusement showing through in his voice. “What gave it away? The bags under my eye, or my internal struggle screaming for a good nights sleep?”

[thepureofheart]

“I. . .uhh. . .I don’t know how to answer.”  The dog turned human answers.

ellie hadn’t known what to expect when the flyers for the carnival had first gone up.  she’d seen a few things similar, in her original time, but they’d all been faded and worn, remnants of a past time.  there’s a child-like wonder as she takes in the lights, the music, and all the people wandering about so happily.  she stops in front of one the games - a classic ‘throw the ball and knock over the bottles to win a pause’ - and quickly realizes what it’s about.  “oh, fuck yeah,” she says, more than eager to try.  only - she doesn’t have any money.  grabbing the attention of the nearest passerby, she asks, “got a dollar i can borrow?  i can pay you back.”  probably.

[thepureofheart]

GIR nods.  “Here yo go !”  GIR squealed in delight as he hands her his dollar.  “Can I watch ?  I never seen a game played before.  Pleeassseee ?”

Groot looks in his pockets and gives one to her.  “Here.  I was just going to play. I can play after you.”

There was something strange about this, whatever it was - he wasn’t sure what made it so strange. Maybe it was all the lights, the noises - mostly, Aden just had a feeling that something was.. wrong. It was actually why he had wandered his way to this place.. this.. carnival. To see what he could find out, if it was a threat, he was going to learn more about it before something actually did happen. For now though, other than all the new sights and sounds and.. so many people, why were there so many people here? Nothing threatening had happened, even if he was confused by a lot of things. 

Some strange woman had given him some food, claiming it was ‘free’ - he looked hungry apparently and, okay he was a little hungry but he knew better than to eat a food he didn’t know. So it was still sitting in front of him as he looked around.

[thepureofheart]

GIR had sat next to the kid, eating some funnel cake, and zeppoles and fried oreos.  “Hello !  Are you having a fun time ?!”

(¸.• ♛ →  “Well, believe me, you are not the only one” She didn’t trust this place either but not because of that she was going to just stop living that wasn’t fair to her “I just want to forget about some things and this actually might help”

“But what if it makes us forget who we are.  I was here when a poison made all the non-humans go crazy and attack.  What if does something worse?”

“Excuse me.”  Boomer says, tapping on someone’s shoulder.  “I never been to a carnival like this before so I was wondering what’s the best thing to do in one ?”

– The Carnival had arrived mysteriously, its whites and reds tenting the scene with elusive speed. The sound of the music turned her stomach with sickness, but as if with magic pulling her along, the female’s feet trudged forward and she found herself touching the bars of a rollercoaster. Eight months pregnant, Maggie knew the rules; she would not be permitted to ride, nor did she suspect that she would want to in the first place. But the glimmer of the paint attracted her eye, and long fingers extended to touch the side of the car. A G A S P. Her sister singing and her father reading from his favorite bible verse. She choked and stumbled backwards, a shaking hand lifted to cover her mouth as Maggie spun quickly to meet the eyes of another.

[thepureofheart]

“Maggie ?  Are you okay ?”  Boomer asks worriedly, handing her a bottle of water.  “Do you need. . .need water ?  Or a hug ?”

“Why does it feel like I’m the only one that doesn’t trust this place ?”  Root asks, looking at the rides in disgust. . .and it might he attributed to him in that stage where everything that isn’t his game is annoying but there’s something more to this place.

“Cupcakes !  Get your fall cupcakes !  Courtesy of Buttercream Bakeshop !”  GIR yelled from his booth.  No one knows if he was authorized to do this but it’s GIR so he was going to do it anyways to get business across.
