[The handwriting is neat and legible, if slightly florid.]

I see we've acquired a circus this time around.

Comments

[redfiend]

[The reply is written rather average and readable.]

What do you mean by that?

[And where can he join in on this?]

[allthekeys]

Between what is already written in these books and how amazingly things have been going so far?

I am rather tempted to ask if anyone knows who the ringleader is and if there are lion tamers.

[redfiend]

And I'm rather tempted in asking who decided grey for these uniforms. Come on, man, I have white hair... this color doesn't go over well.

What happens if I replace the colors with red and black?

[whiteofcrime]

'This time around'?

[ He regrets nothing, notebook ghost. NOTHING. ]

[allthekeys]

This is hardly the first time this place has awakened.

Or the first time others have found themselves here.

[whiteofcrime]

Oh, that's what you meant. I didn't realise you were here the last time!

What did happen to the last place? Everything just started falling and then suddenly we were back home. And now we're here again.

[shuttersense]

More like ruffians.

[She's so embarrassed.]

[allthekeys]

If they're lucky, they'll manage to be entertaining.

[shuttersense]

Maybe. Mostly, this is embarrassing to watch.

[bloodrights]

Good or bad thing?

[allthekeys]

Depends on who you're asking.

And if the 'circus' can be clever for things other than jokes.

[bloodrights]

Maybe it'll be useful.

Not the jokes. The wit, I guess.

[canonized_demon]

This time around huh? So I'm right to think this is related to that other place?

[allthekeys]

Which other place would you be referring to?

[canonized_demon]

With the Phantasms and the Shadow jerk and Dave the bartender and all the different houses.

[indestructigirl]

Better than a carnival.

And does that mean whoever you 'we' might be, that you're not in charge of who gets brought here?

[allthekeys]

I am not sure there is such a thing.

As much as I am sure some would love to believe they are.

[indestructigirl]

That's the problem with power; some control it and some get controlled by it.

So if no one is in charge of who gets brought here, then how do we all wind up here in the first place?

[sky_sharkling]

Maybe. I think it might pack up and leave once night comes though.

[Akito is Not Impressed]

[allthekeys]

Well they will certainly find their venue far less accommodating.

[sky_sharkling]

I thought as much. Hard to be playing jokes when you're trying to stay alive.

[decomposes]

what are you saying it wasnt a goddamn horror circus the last time too

_{[terrible chickenscratch with absolutely no punctuation. it's hard to translate sarcasm into text alright.]}

[allthekeys]

It varies.

Apparently there is an overabundance of clowns this time.

[unchainedfromacomet]

Don't know about "this time," I definitely remember a circus. Had a sideshow and everything--crowd participation, too.

[90% of him very much knows better but the rest is curious to start a conversation]

[allthekeys]

And how much of the circus that has come here was involved previously?

Then again, perhaps being "entertaining" served better before.
