*Tim is standing against one of the booths smoking. He's got a small collection of prizes won from the various games including a large stuffed panda, a couple gaudy plastic bracelets that he's actually wearing and a plastic bag with a red betta fish swimming around in it that he's tied to his belt. He's currently debating between funnel cakes and

[Haru's busy wandering around with a stuffed black dragon under his arm. When he spots Tim, or rather his bright red fishy fish. He hurries over.]

Nice snack you have there! So when are you going to eat it?

[timisnotme]

I .. wasn't planning on eating it. *Because that's not totally weird or anything.* It's kinda small to snack on isn't it?

[skater_lynx]

Not really~ I've had live octopus in a shot glass before.

[timisnotme]

*grimace* That sounds horrible. Was it in alcohol or something?

[skater_lynx]

Well the macho way is to take it straight but I like mine with a little of the red sauce. If you hesitate then it starts squirming around and trying to get out and it'll stick the tentacles up your nose.

Wiggling food is exciting.

[timisnotme]

*Okay. That's just gross.*

I like my food dead. And generally between slices of bread. I don't know if I could handle an octopus still squirming.

They have bigger fish if you wanna try and win one.

[skater_lynx]

That sounds really boring~

I'll wait for the chicks to come back in the spring. They've got a bit of crunch.

Do you get evil points for that like in Fable?

[timisnotme]

You eat them.. with the feathers and everything?

Dude. That's kinda twisted.

Maybe if you're not part lynx

[skater_lynx]

So am I~ <3

[timisnotme]

I'm noticing that, yeah.

[skater_lynx]

'Bout time. I don't hide it anymore than I do my ass~ <3

So you got a name? I'm Haru. I've been here for fucking ever.

[timisnotme]

Tim. Been here almost a year.

Which means long enough that I'm expecting this carnival to turn into a horror show at any minute. So I'm enjoying it now before the clowns with chainsaws show up.

[skater_lynx]

The second year is harder. Especially if your friend start all going home and you're still here. I don't know how some of the older ones handled it...Four years is a lot.

I don't know~ That sounds like more fun than some of stuff here. Are you armed for chainsaw wielding clowns? Your hands look pretty full there.

[timisnotme]

I'm counting on the fish to save me. It's a japanese fighting fish. It can handle it.

[skater_lynx]

[Snerk.]

You think it was a ninja in a previous life~?

[timisnotme]

Yep. A death defying fish ninja.

Actually I'll just run like hell. I don't need to die anymore. It's not really fun.
