Sunspot Circus: OTA - Gathering Post

Who: Everyone and anyone
What: Come one, Come All! The Sunspot Circus has arrived!
Where: A clearing just outside of Haven
When: 6/20 Evening, to 6/23 Evening

The Sunspot Circus seems to be all anyone has been able to talk about, with growing excitement as they days pass by. And finally, at around 5 PM on the 20th, the Circus has not only arrived, but has set up in a clearing just outside of Haven. While most of the crew have been hard at work setting up the big, red and yellow tent in the middle of the clearing and setting up various vendors and games and stalls for food and any manner of circus attraction and side-show you can think of, a smaller group has been traveling through Haven drumming up excitement.

There are prizes to be one in games of skill, various side show acts to marvel at, a fortune teller who will happily read anyone's fortune. And the food smells amazing. Savory, spicy, smoked, sweet. Whatever you might crave, the Circus seems to have it.

So come one, come all. Come see the ladies riding the backs of tamed skitters, the magician pulling small Kites out of hats. Whatever you think might be at a circus like this will be there. It's vibrant and colorful. The music is enjoyable. There are fireworks at night when the circus closes for the evening. Performers will be roaming the clearing, juggling and singing tunes of questionable decency (cover your ears, children) and making delightful nuisances of themselves. People will be shouting for you to buy hand-made jewelry, scarves, various foods on sticks, and multitudes of foods that probably shouldn't be fried but someone did it and it's amazing.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

And remember what happens the day after they leave.

"Cool. I haven't tried those cookies yet." So this was the perfect reason/excuse to do so. They did look really good, after all. And it wasn't like he'd never had funnel cake before; they served it at like, every event back home, more or less.

"That's a cool name," he added without batting an eye, though he was curious if it was short for something, "I'm Reid. Have you been in this weird place for long?"

"It's short for Charlene. And it's to meet you," Charlie says with a half smile. That's not something she gets to say often, let alone say and mean. She's never really met anyone she was okay with. Nor was she prone to ignoring her reservations. But this place had, so far, been good to her.

No one was out to get her. No one was actively trying to use her abilities.

Tilting her head a bit towards the vendor that she bought the cookie creation from, she starts walking.

"Uh...around a month? I haven't...I'm really not the best at keeping track of that kind of thing."

"Charlie's cooler," he said seriously, with a nod. Not that Charlene was a bad name, because it wasn't, but Charlie was a cool nickname.

He fell into step next to her, pitching his paper plate into the first trash can they came across. "That long, huh? I just got here. I was hoping someone would know how to get home."

But if people had been here for a month already...he was assuming no one actually knew a way out, then. Which sucked, but at least he had the comfort of knowing things were alright back home, that no one was in danger anymore. The only thing he'd be missing was his friends and school.
