Shionick reached for her necklace "My father gave me this a couple days before he died I was hoping you might know what it meant since it looks like the symbol for the circus"

The man reached out, looking at it. "Hmm. It's the symbol for a deal with a demon, child." He replied. "We used it for our logo because my brother thought it looked good."

"Oh i was just curious. Thanks for the explanation" Shionick knew her mind was racing but pushed through it "Do you have any clue if it still ties the demon to me or my father"

He tipped his head. "Demon contracts are made with one person only. They are not transferrable. So while it may still be tied to your father, it should have no effect on you. That is, if that is even a real bargain mark, and not just a cute ornament."

Shionick nodded and tucked the necklace back in between her shirt and tank top "that is relieving. But back to the papers"

The man nodded. He was tall, extremely so, with black hair and eyes that almost seemed to swallow the light with how dark they were. "Right. Finish signing here, and here, and you are officially a circus worker." He pointed to two different sections.

Shionick signed them neatly and fixed the papers when she was done

He smiled slightly, chuckling. "There we go." He said.

Shionick felt her heart leap in happiness at least she thinks that is what it was from

He smiled slightly, chuckling as he put the papers away. "Jinx can show you around. You'll be bunking with Paige for now."

Paige Shionick ran the name through her mind as she nodded to the man then she realized "I never got your name sir" Paige. Why does that name sound so familiar??

"Brandt." He replied after a moment. He walked to the door of the tent. "Jinx!" He called.

Shionick tried not to flinch and failed screaming always made her jump

The man took no notice of her.
Jinx came over after a moment, pulling his shirt on after changing out of his performance clothes. "Yes sir?"

Shionick waved slightly from behind Brandt "Hello again"

Jinx looked over at her, and gave a small smile, then looked at Brandt. "What is it, sir?" He asked.
"Show miss Shionick around. She'll be bunking with Paige."

Shionick walked over to Jinx's side and started up a conversation "What is your favorite thing about this place?"

Jinx smiled slightly, and started walking. "The performances." He replied with a shrug.

"Really not the food? I always liked the churros and well any junk food here but i guess that comes naturally" Shionick chuckled at herself as if she needed enough to worry about but with Jinx it felt different

Jinx chuckled softly, and shook his head. "Those are for the people watching. That's not what us performers eat." He replied.

"oh! that's cool" Shionick smiled at Jinx "so what do you do for fun other than preform?"

He shrugged a little. "Train." He replied. "Not much else, really."

"Really? Have you ever had a day on the town or spent time with your friends?" Shionick could practically see the bewilderment in her own voice

He tipped his head slightly. "Ah… no. We don't leave the circus much." He replied.

Shionick took time to think about her car a Ford mustang with a simple shade of light blue fitted with a small star decal on her diver and passenger doors just under the window "Wow. Must be pretty boring with that one huh?"
