Eike wandered about the carnival area, worrying ever so often about Ganta and those involved with him. He had pulled his mask up so that he could easily look around before catching sight of white in the corner of his eye. Hurrying to hide -- as to not break the illusion of who was the juggler, regardless of how obvious it was, he lowered his mask back down over his face. Hoping that he was not seen without it. Peeking out from behind one of the stands, he was cheered to see that someone had both come and enjoying themselves. I suppose this counts as a first customer.

He smiled underneath the mask, wondering if that was actually the right terminology for those who visited the carnival. It was not as though they were going to get any proceeds or money for this. If he was allowed to be sappy, he supposed that they were paying with their smiles and good-will. But, if he said something like that aloud, someone would probably laugh.

Stepping out and in front of the young girl and her familiar, he bowed in an overly dramatic fashion in front of her. Straightening his stance, he scratched his head like he was uncertain about what to do now. He leaned forward to gaze at her before snapping his fingers in a generic eureka moment. Reaching into his sleeves, he produced a few juggling balls and began his act for her. Shame that he only knew how to keep three balls in the air, but he at least an ace up his sleeve. Quite literally. When it seemed like the act had gone on for just a little too long, he reached into his sleeve once more to produce a sweet -- a chocolate bar. Allowed the wrapper to be seen before lopping it high and slow at his audience of two. He leaned forward in a bow before jerking backwards quickly to catch the three balls before they touched the ground.

Looks like he got marginally better with his juggling act. He wondered if he had produced this same act for the crowd that he would have gotten coins thrown at him. That thought amused him. Saving his life and being paid for it. Chuckling underneath the mask, he returned to the bowed pose which he had at the start of his performance and waited for her response. She was the first to see it, after all. It wouldn't do to do what he thought of -- which was to vanish after the candy was tossed -- as he felt that as a special treat for the first person here that he would give just a little extra attention. As a gift for their kindness in showing up.
