Blimey, this apartment ain't 'alf large. Are they all like this? Can't get use t'havin' this much space. Wonder if Beast'd mind me sharin' her room. Real different from the tents. It's weird them bein' so high up too. Glad I've got a good head fer heights or I'd feel right strange. Nice of this place t'give us somewhere t'stay though, never thought I'd live somewhere like this.

T'other day, that was one of the curses, right? Frightened me stiff, all that noise an' fightin'. It was 'orrible, hope they ain't all like that.

Right, I wanted t'ask, someone told me there's an orphanage 'ere. Anyone knows who I can talk to 'bout givin' an 'and there maybe?

It does a bit. I practice lots, but I'm fine with heights so it ain't too bad.

Yeah, I think that's 'er name! Joker was th'one t'speak with 'er an' get us into the circus.

This is great. I can't wait for the big event! You guys will really bring new life to that show. Have you been doing this for a long time?

[freckleddoll]

'ope so! The circus doin' well s'good fer all of us performers. Need t'check if there's any need of an animal tamer too. 'nother friend of mine arrived from 'ome a couple of days ago.

We've 'ad our own circus fer quite a while now, so yeah, we 'ave!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

It's good that you got friends from your world here to keep you company!

Boy, sounds like this place's being helpful for once: Road inherits the circus and suddenly a whole crew of new performers drops by! I'm really happy.

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, wouldn't know what t'do without 'em. Was really worried when I turned up 'ere on my own at first.

It ain't that bad! The curses are a bit scary but we've never 'ad such a posh place t'stay before, and we're t'gether 't least, so that's alright.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

I know the feeling. Sure, it'd be better if you were all back home together, but... yeah.

Er... posh place? These rooms?

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, t'would be better t'be back 'ome. I miss the others, 'specially Jumbo. But it ain't 'alf as bad as I thought it was.

They're real big, ain't they? So much space! Well built, too.

I... never thought about them like that! But you got a point about the size. Especially if they're doubles!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Anyway. I'm glad you're not letting this place get you down. That's actually the best way to fight it, though sometimes it's difficult.

[freckleddoll]

They seem right spacious when you're used t'livin' in tents!

S'best t'see the bright side, I always think.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Tents... Oh. Right. Circus. So you used to live there with the crew all the time?

[freckleddoll]

Yeah, t'was a travellin' circus. 'm part o' the first tier - y'know, the main performers. Lived there all the time.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

I get it. Boy, living in a fixed place with no moving around at all must feel really weird to you, Freckles.

[freckleddoll]

It does, but it still ain't as strange as the way everythin' looks 'ere. An' all this weird stuff too, like these box things!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Aw, then... you must be from a world where you don't have this technology! It's really something, huh? The communicator thingies were hard for me to figure out too.

[freckleddoll]

Still ain't sure 'm usin' them right. Never seen anythin' like this b'fore. But they're real convenient like!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

They're pretty sneaky. I hope you haven't found yours recording a video when you don't want it to and then posting it all over the Network. Because that happens.

[freckleddoll]

...'video'?

Er... oh, right.

video; 2/2

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Here, like this! [Waves into the camera.] See me there? That's what I mean!

[freckleddoll]

Cor, I can see ya! How'd ya do that?

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Hee~ Every Net' device's different. But try pushing buttons around! See if there's any that reads "video", "video options" or stuff like that...
