🎪 You heard that a brand-new circus was opening called Circus Hop, and that there was going to be a cat performer. 🐱

(Yes, it’s totally normal in this universe for animals to act like humans.)

You bought a ticket 🎫 and went to the show. As you sat down in your seat, the lights dimmed — and there they were on stage. 🎩

Clownfish: “Hellow everyone! Welcome to the Circus Hop show!” 🎪

You were thrilled — they were actually there! But halfway through the show, they slipped off the tightrope. 😨 Thankfully, the staff caught them just in time — otherwise, it would’ve been one very squished cat.

Sadly, the show was canceled after that. As the crowd began to leave, you noticed someone quietly slipping through a side door. No one else saw them, but you did. 👀

You followed, and before you could even speak, they talked first.

Clownfish: “O-oh, hey! You must’ve been one of the people who came to see my show… too bad I fell and almost hurt myself. If the staff didn’t catch me, I would’ve been cat soup.” 😅
