Sword swallower.

[yourunichase]

I'm going to find whoever took my 11 incher and I'm going to shove it so far up their ass!

[Parker is a sword swallower who's been with the carnival for two years. Everyone just calls her 'Parker'. And she totally doesn't bother with filters]

It wasn't me, but I'm going to keep a closer eye on Mahogany and my took kit. One can't drive a nail up his nose if someone makes off with the nails.

No one's going to steal that stupid rat.

[Carnival Filter]

[championoftime]

She's quite a bit smarter than any "stupid rat". Anyway, the point is there seems to be a rash of thefts lately and I don't like thinking of it being one of us.

[Carnival Filter]

[yourunichase]

It's gotta be a new person.

[Carnival Filter]

[championoftime]

Best we keep an eye out on each other. I'll look for the pig-sticker if you kindly likewise warn me if my "rat" has gone astray. [Still sounds Scottish, the way he rolls those "r"s.]

[Carnival Filter]

[yourunichase]

Fair deal. We gotta watch each other's backs.

[naughtbutlife.livejournal.com]

Maybe you don't want to swallow that sword after it's been up somebody's backside, Parker.

[yourunichase]

I don't, but at least I'd know where the hell it was, Ang.

[They should be friends?]

[naughtbutlife.livejournal.com]

When'd you last see it?

[yourunichase]

After my act in the last place.

[naughtbutlife.livejournal.com]

Hell. It could be anywhere.

Coulda got hocked at the last place as a souvenir too, for all you know.

[yourunichase]

Ain't something that normally happens when I carry it on my person. 'Course someone said that my 11 incher was too big for town. If I ain't listened, wouldn't be in this mess.

[naughtbutlife.livejournal.com]

It's somewhere. I bet it's just misplaced. You know how things get when we hit storms on the road.

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

Interesting addition to your show. It might ward off a few customers, however.

[yourunichase]

Might increase the tips if they're scared of me. How goes it, Eddie?

[puzzleprince.livejournal.com]

Very well, my dear. Despite the collective preaching of our presence being an unwelcome one, the villagers are actually quite keen on trying out their luck.

[yourunichase]

Are they? Funny how hypocritical they tend to be around places like this. Two things every small town has in common: suckers and secrets.

He didn't see shit.

[subtlescience]

I do believe I saw some children running with it. You should toddle off and stop them before someone puts an eye out. Remember what happened in Middleton?

Tsk.

Oh Snape

[yourunichase]

Hey, it's not my fault if he happened to slip while my hand was on it and his hand was on my ass.

[This may or may not have happened. It was probably a nick.]

[subtlescience]

He just ran into your knife, did he?

[yourunichase]

Ran into it twice.

[subtlescience]

As is often wont to happen when people run into knives.

[yourunichase]

Yeah. They don't believe it happened the first time, so they feel the need to try it again.

Being a perv between preaching the glories of God.

[the-house-rules.livejournal.com]

I've got your eleven incher right here.

[Audio, carnie filter. House doesn't care who amongst his own people sees his depraved remarks, however it is of utmost importance that the townies don't see he is not a wholesome man of God.]

[yourunichase]

You cane don't count.

[the-house-rules.livejournal.com]

Har har. We both know that's just a prop to win over the crowd. Kind of like the sacks of corn you stuff down that bodice.

Filter

[yourunichase]

Now Doc, if ya wanna see what's down my bodice, all ya need do is act real nice-like.

Private now.

[the-house-rules.livejournal.com]

That's never stopped you in the past.

((ooc: He's full of shit, or perhaps they actually have hooked up at some point. As the carnival's resident faithless conman, or rather, perhaps, one of them, it wouldn't be surprising.))

Private now.

[yourunichase]

As I recall, you did some asking mighty nice that time.

[I vote yes. For later lolz on the hooking up.]

Private now.

[the-house-rules.livejournal.com]

Don't let tales of my decency get out. It would ruin me. Well, here, at least.

[OOC: AGREEEEEEED.]

Private now.

[yourunichase]

Now I don't recall saying ya were decent.

Private now.

[the-house-rules.livejournal.com]

And I don't recall you complaining...

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

Why does everyone automatically assume theft when something goes missing? It's not impossible to misplace things.

[yourunichase]

'Cause Libby, we tend to end up with a lot of the untrustworthy sort wandering through. Ain't us, mind, but them.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

There's just no need to threaten when you can't even be sure. Even if you are sure, in fact.

[yourunichase]

Why ain't there. Tis my knife!

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

You just shouldn't threaten people, is all.

[yourunichase]

Why not? It's fun and it adds to my allure.

Come on Libby, lighten up?

[What do you think about them being friends? It might help Parker actually talk to her about some shit when the flood's done.]

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

I just don't like the fighting it leads to. This town's already got people looking for reasons to bully us.

[This Libby is friends with EVERYONE who'll let her in :D]

[yourunichase]

That's what Townsfolk do. If we let 'em bully us, then they're gonna think they can get away with it.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

But why fight their threats with more of our own? There's no point, and we should be better than that.
