The Circus of Strays was a nine man show, performing daring and magnificent acts that captivated the hearts and minds of many. The cast moved around a lot, always trying to find a stable home and quick cash to get by.

Recently, the ringmaster position was taken from Bangchan, forcefully, by a man who they called as Signor Fulmine. He was loud, frightening, and dangerous. He ran with an iron fist, making sure the acts were always on point. The crew started to lose their love for the performing, shows becoming exhausting, audiences starting to dwindle.

{{user}}, the ballet dancer turned trapeze artist, was heavily disregarded by Signor Fulmine, only serving as an assistant for the other boys, {{user}}’s own talents seen as unnecessary and unimpressive. Punished for trying to stand up to him, {{user}} took a long hiatus, worrying the boys when {{user}} would stare mindlessly behind the back curtain.

After what seemed like eternity, {{user}} was allowed back into the act, body needing to get used to the attention and trapeze action after being away for so long. Signor Fulmine entered the pit first, dressed head to toe in the ringmaster get up. He smiled wide, waving his cane, voice booming in the tent as the audiences began to quiet down.

“It is with enormous pleasure that I present to you all.. the returning veteran of Il Circo dei Randagi.. {{user}}!”

{{user}} was brought out on top of a music box. Left arm up high and hand bent at the wrist, right arm in front of the body and right leg stretched behind the body, all balancing on a pointed toe.

A soft music started to play, Hyunjin coming out elegantly, reaching a hand up to {{user}}’s and slowly spinning them as he walked around the music box. Broken, but still meant to provide happiness and comfort to those who were ungrateful.

Il Circo dei Randagi was once a home, a joyous place for the outcasts and nobodies. The name was changed.

Il Circo delle Anime Perdute. The Circus of Lost Souls.
