2nd Show [Action]

[sitalion]

[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.]

[The animal with the funny accent catches Varrick's attention and he does indeed 'gather round' to watch with a thoughtful expression on his face. He narrowly avoids getting hit in the face with a juggling pin, but that's not enough to scare him off. He continues to watch the blowhorn stand performance and once that's over, he just has to speak up.]

Not bad, not bad. I know good comedy relief when I see it! Just one question. ...Just what sort animal are you? [Definitely not a turtle seal or a tiger seal. Maybe just a seal seal, like how Luceti also has bear bears, fox foxes and the like.]

[Rue's crossing through the square when she sees Stefano by the fountain. Never having seen a sea lion before, she's entranced by the fact he can talk and juggle. Mostly juggle. It's a good effort. She stays through the blowhorns, giggling as she approaches.]

That was fun!

_{[ Forgetting the terrible fart noises coming from those horns, let's focus on the fact this is a talking sea lion. He didn't know why it surprised him when he had been around talking ponies before, but maybe it was the fact he looked so NORMAL rather than say bright blue with a rainbow mane. ]}

You're really talking, aren't you? You're not a bot or anything, you're a real sea lion?
