2nd Show [Action]
[Well, if Stefano can't get back to his circus in Europe, he'd just have to bring a circus to Luceti. The first step is a little exposure, and a little practice. So first, he's picked out a nice, visible spot by the fountain and has set up his own little act. He has a big box full of toys beside him, mostly with balls of all sizes, and random instruments.]
Gather around, everybody, gather around! And prepare to be blown away!
[He takes three bowling pins into his flippers and begins to juggle them. It lasts for about ten seconds before he misses a catch, and the pins go flying everywhere. Stefano grins sheepishly and scrambles to pick them up.]
I'm still-a practicing with that one. Pretty good, no?
Now, look at this!
[He puts the pins back into his box. If that doesn't get any attention, he's got one toy that will – a blowhorn stand. Stefano squeezes the blowhorns, producing squeaking and farting sounds.]
[Poor sea lion...he just might be trying too hard.]

Re: action;
Right, a talking sea-lion... With an Italian accent?
action;
[Nodnod.]
Are you here to watch-a my show?
Re: action;
Wow, even an Italian sounding name.
Yeah, I watched it. You're not bad - better than I am at juggling.
[ Though let's be real, the biggest trick is you talking... with an accent. He resists the urge to poke, or to play with your mustache groomed whiskers. ]
action;
[On the other hand, if you want to hug him, he'll definitely go for that.]
Grazie! I want to put together a new circus in-a Luceti one day, so I'm just-a gaining the interest.
[Looks like it's working so far.]
Re: action;
A circus, huh? A one... [ Pause while he debates what to use] sea-lion kind of thing or are you planning on doing some recruiting?
[ It would certainly be something to go do, and hey, entertainment when they had parties was never a bad idea. SOMEONE was bound to like farting horns, weren't they? ]
action;
I can do solo shows as well!
Re: action;
I don't know about circus talents.... well, maybe. I know a couple guys with some skills or two.
[ A sea-lion badgering them about a circus? This should be fun. Though, maybe he shouldn't tell him about Loki, on second though. That could go badly for poor Stefano and Kirk wasn't that cruel. But Bones (whom had no skills besides being ornery) and Trunks could be interesting...]
You could try asking them.
action;
[Digging into his toybox, he pulls out a notepad with a pen.]
Okay! Who should I talk-a to?
Re: action;
[ He grinned. ]
Trunks Briefs and Leonard McCoy.
action;
There's underwear that can do tricks!? Sí, this will make a great-a circus!
Re: action;
Uh, no, he's not underwear, he's a person, but for some reason....
You know, you can ask him that when you find him.
[ He had wondered about that too, but it seemed impolite to question that. Though eventually some ribbing would occur. It's what bros did. ]
action;
[And moving on...]
I don't-a believe I have caught your name yet.
Re: action;
It's James T. Kirk, but everyone calls me Kirk. Nice to meet you Stefano.
[ He held out his hand to his... flipper for a shake. ]
action;
It's nice-a to meet you, too!
Re: action;
So, what other tricks can you do?
[ Might as well enjoy the show, right? Or... kind of show. ]
