(trying to think of ways to put in Alice)
She smiles, “ask and you shall receive,” she mulls over something for a moment, “after the show tonight I’ll have blood for you” she smiles and turns back to Arthur, “alright darling” she says placing a hand under his chin, “two hours until curtain” Arthur weakly smiles back
“Yes mistress” He looks at a spot above her shoulder, not making eye contact.
“Good pets,” she smiles and retracts her hand, placing it over the whip, “and be nice to poor Alice” she adds and slinks out of the tent.
The second she is out of hearing range Arthur lets out a large sigh of relief.
Slowly Cyrus takes a deep breath and sighs softly. He walks to Arthur and offers a weak smile.
"I wasn't confronted today! Hell yeah!" Karma cheered. It was one of the rare days where Mistress didn't go around to everyone and only picked a select few. She cherished those days.
"Why can't she just stay holed up in her own tent…staying away from us?" Rei mumbled, looking down at Arthur and Silk. Disgusting woman can't keep her hands to herself.
Arthur shudders slightly and reaches out for Cyrus’s hand, “the witch..” he mutters
"If I have to deal with another one of her lectures I swear to god she won't live to see the next show." Just the thought of the many lectures she'd gotten made her blood boil, the temperature in the tent raising slightly.
Cyrus offers his hand, squeezing it gently. He smiles gently. "It's okay Arthur." He mutters.
“One of these days..” he mutters again, struggling to find his voice.
Silk gave the others a bored look and bent herself around the pole again. They were acting like they’d just gone through something traumatic. It was their fault that Arthur had been talked to. She had been praised because of her work. Maybe they should try and be like her.
Karma rubbed her temples, willing her blood pressure to drop. "Alice, that was the Mistress. She runs the circus and everyone hates her. Well, except Silk who bent her way into her heart like a goody two shoes."
Taking a deep breath in and then forcing it out through his teeth, Rei walked out onto the rope again. "Two hours until curtain," he muttered. Despite having a burning hatred for practice, and basically every other part of his schedule, Rei didn't mind it too much when they had shows. Surprisingly, it was something that took his mind off of where he was.
Silk ignored Karma. Maybe she should shut her mouth before she Bent someone to shut it for her.
Gently, Cyrus hugs him. He takes a deep breath. "It's okay… We'll get out of here soon." He says gently.
Alice was glad the Mistress hadn't noticed her since she was in a corner, glancing at Karma when she said her name. "I can see that everyone hates me, I think I might end up hating her too." She said the last part a bit quieter.
Arthur speaks up again, “Let’s be nice.” He says sternly, quickly letting go of Cyrus’s hand, “back to practicing, we must be perfect for the show tonight”
She smiled a little. "We don't hate you, just don't want to get beaten with the whip she always carries. Everyone here has their fair share of scars, trust me."
(Silk seems a bit violent XD)
Stopping, Rei hooked his legs around the rope and hung upside down. This was mostly out of boredom, considering they all practiced exactly like this almost every day. Quietly, he listened to what the others were saying, his skin prickling at Karma's comment. People only become frustrated when that woman comes around.
hhh, sorry if my replies are a bit late, the internet is acting up for me))
Cyrus starts before taking a deep breath. He walks back to the trapeze. He takes a deep breath. He didn't want to upset Arthur.
Same//
She smiled a little. "We don't hate you, just don't want to get beaten with the whip she always carries. Everyone here has their fair share of scars, trust me."
"…Are you serious? I hate her now. Is she even allowed to hit us?" She asked, a shocked look on her face.
“She runs this place, she can, and will, do whatever she needs to keep us in like” Arthur says quietly
Alice glanced at Arthur and sighed. "Okay then, but I still hate her and will always hate her."
She shrugged. "Probably not. But who cares? We're just actors. She only ever does it when it's just us and the only people we see are in the audience."
