3rd Performance | The Gods must be crazy

[with_the_big_top]

[Video]

Y'know, I haven't been here for very long and I'm still trying to figure this place out. I know it's really jarring to be pulled out of your own world and into another without any warning. Heck, it's even downright scary! I can totally understand being angry at the people responsible for it, too. Desperate times call for desperate measures, I guess.

I saw the cute little thing one of the Gods posted for someone, and it kind of explained a lot! Even before I saw that, though, I noticed a little bit of a trend.

Every time one of the Gods posts something a lot of people treat them pretty rudely. Like I said, I can understand being angry and scared...but is it really a good idea to act that way toward the most powerful people here? Sure, it would have been better if they had asked for our help before just pulling us here...but would anyone have said yes to their request?

I don't know if anyone else here has ever been in a situation where they had a chance to do something to save an entire world, but even despite the circumstances it's a chance to do something really cool and incredible! We can help save an entire world, and if what that God posted is true, a whole bunch of other worlds too...even our own.

I dunno, I kind of feel like I'm rambling. I guess I'm just saying we should probably try to cooperate with the Gods and do something to help. We're here anyway, right? I bet the quicker we get it done the quicker we can go home. Plus, it'll probably end in some kind of grand show! A final battle with the evil bosses! It's like something out of a video game, and will probably be something really cool to be a part of.

Besides, they're Gods. That demands some kind of respect, right? I'm not trying to suck up or anything, and I'm really not even sure why I decided to do this. I just figure we should be more cooperative since we're here anyway, and we might even become some kind of mythical heroes in the process! Even if you don't like the Gods, we should definitely all work together ourselves. We're going to have to fight for our lives, right?

I'm just a circus performer, though...so I guess I might be a little naive or something?

[Cerebella thinks about that for a moment, before the video feed mercifully shuts off.]

I disagree. To be able to enjoy one's own duties is a blessing. Not many people are fortunate enough to acquire duties like our own, where we enjoy every moment of every single day.

[Then he begins to wonder.]

At the very least, it is what I truly believe over the matter of work. If there is a rule against one to enjoy their duties, then I apologize to those who made the rule, but I do not believe I will be able to follow such regulations.

I dunno, I just feel like all I do I play around and get a bunch of fame for it.

Not that I really mind, it's not like I didn't earn it right?

[She sounds more like she's just thinking out loud than actually trying to hold a conversation.]

[onlyserves]

[And Soushi is simply listening to her, but he can't help wonder.]

Do you miss working at the circus? Or have you been able to acquire a similiar trade in Asgard?

[with_the_big_top]

Of course I miss it! I...haven't been able to find a good way to perform, yet...but I'm working on it!

[onlyserves]

[At the other explanation over missing it, Soushi will look apologetic as he lowers his head.]

I do apologize for reminding you of such a fact. I simply assumed that you continue to work in the entertainment industry. A close acquaintance works in the circus back in her world. She has been performing her acts around Asgard with her lion known as Sinbad.

[Then he begins to wonder...]

Do you, by any chance, know her? Her name is Regina Berry.

[with_the_big_top]

No no I'm still totally gonna do it It's not a big...

[Oh, wait, Cerebella knows that name.]

Yea! I know her! She's really cool and has a LION!!

[onlyserves]

Yes. Berry-san is an excellent lion tamer. I have been given the fortune to witness a couple of her performances around the city. She speaks fondly about her time at the circus that her father owns. They are wonderful tales.

[Then he wonders a little more...]

By your familiarity to her name, is it safe to assume that you are a fellow acquaintance to Berry-san?

[with_the_big_top]

Uh, yea I met her not long after I got here.

Man I haven't even gotten to see it yet! What have I even been doing here?

[onlyserves]

It is never too late. Berry-san would be most delighted to be given the honor for you to view her shows. She is not one to easily offend.

[There will be a bit of silence as he wonders if...]

Excuse me. If it isn't any trouble, would you like to accompany me in watching one of her next shows? Right now, my master is currently working, so I am currently free to do so.
