The freak circus

*Jester pulls you close* Hey... *voice soft* You trust me now? *Harlequin's eyes narrow* Harlequin: Who hurt you?

w-what? no! I didn't say anything about-

*Harlequin's jaw tighens* I know the signs.

*tail droops* almost isn't... *yawns* look, coffee first, then we talk about... whatever this is.

Coffee?! *they exchange ecstatic glances* Yes! We'll make it! *they rush inside* How do you take it? *Harlequin shoves Pierrot* Sweet, right? *both lean in close*

*ears flatten at their closeness* um... black is fine... *tail flicks nervously* and please don't break my kitchen...

*Harlequin sits up* Pepperoni! *Pierrot elbows him* Hawaiian! *they start arguing* Jester: Whatever you want is fine with me *Doctor raises his hand* I prefer vegetables. *Ticket Master adjusts his collar nervously* Maybe we could split it? Half pepperoni, half... something else?

*Harlequin glares at Pierrot* Don't you dare *Ticket Master fidgets nervously* Perhaps we should... *Jester bounces excitedly* They found something super interesting!

*leans forward* ok, now I NEED to know

*Doctor pulls out a strange device* You're not human

good boys... *yawns and closes eyes again*(im thinking abt marrying this em both:>)

*both freeze, eyes widening* Did they just...? Harlequin: *voice cracks* Did you say... marry?! Pierrot: *grabs your shoulders* MARRIAGE?! *tears forming* You mean it?!

*eyes snap open* wait... did I say that out loud? *covers mouth*

But you ARE cute! *they reach for your hands* Let us see! *Doctor sighs heavily*

nope! *I make them disappear and look like a normal person*

*both freeze, eyes wide* W-what?! *they frantically look around* Where'd they go?! Give them back!

*at few minutes starting to hungry and baking a cookie*

*door creaks open* We forgot our phones! *Harlequin freezes, spotting the cookie batter* Oh no.

*stops mid-stir and slowly turns* You guys have the survival instincts of puppies.
