Citizen's of Vale gather excitedly in the arena to watch the talent show! Stands packed full, popcorn in hand, they wait at the edge of their seat for the show to begin!
The man takes one long final drag from his cigarette before disposing of it. "Well, well," he peeks out to the stands, "seems we got a full house. May as well not keep them waiting!" he said as he fixed his hat. He coughed into his hand twice before straightening the rest of his outfit. He snapped his fingers and the main stage lights went dark. Only the dims remained. Green smoke began to cover the stage as the dims converged onto one spot. The smoke grew dense as it billowed upwards before spinning violently. A half-gloved hand breached the smoke and swiped the smoke away revealing the host of the show! He wore a plain white tee, with gloves to match, under a black hoodie jacket. A brown box hat crowns his green hair that matches his cargo pants and brown combat boots finishes his outfit. With a wry grin he addresses the audience, "Welcome, one and all to Vale's Fire Festival's Talent Show! I'm your host" he takes a bow, "Garcello Fumo and I hope you all have a wonderful time witnessing the talents of all of our contestants! Now without further ado, let's get this show on the road!" he shouted pumping his fist in the air. Fire erupted from safety certified cells beneath the stage which surprised Garcello a bit. "If I were just a few feet to the left..." he thought as he exhaled. All stage lights were now on, but he was still the focus. "Our first talent coming to the stage is," a ball of smoke formed about chest level to him as he reaches in a pulls out a card, "oh, my mistake! Our 'talents' coming to the stage are: The Ringtail Brothers!" he announces as he claps and fades into green smoke leaving the stage open for the talents. As he disappeared the stage began to change a bit. Moving ground targets, climbing obstacles and attack dummies rose from the bottom of the stage and moving aerial targets spilled from atop. The crowd watched in anticipation practically watering at the mouth to watch the show the talents were going to put on for them.

Ooc; <><><><><><><><><><><><><><> This was it. This was the moment they were waiting for. The talent show, time drawn for rehearsals to a close. All the work over the course of a few weeks since their meeting, all formed into one demonstration of the bond between raccoon faunus,,, and raccoon. The moment Rowan had heard of the advertisings of such an event, it hadn't taken him long to sign both him and his companion up. Who wouldn't wish to see an adorable raccoon?? All cuteness aside, finding Sheldon abandoned in a trash can, and taking him in, there had been that stretch of bonding with the young animal. So far, everything was going smooth. Teaming in with Ren had helped both owner and pet adjust a bit more to each other. Adding in the extra training and practice, deep down Rowan knew they were ready to go. His reason for signing them up was to show off that result of their strong bond. More so, for more quality time. To get ready for this, Rowan had even splurged a little on an outfit for both of them. While he was geared up in what was said to be a "perfect animal taming" outfit by the tailor, Sheldon was wearing a set of goggles, and a mini blue bowtie. Upon the raccoon's back was his usual blue backpack. Both of them had preparations done, only now awaiting the curtain call for them to stand forward.
"Well, there is a lot of people~!" Standing at the entry way, Rowan was taking the time to take note of the audience they were to be expected to preform in front of. Many eyes!!! Many people!!! Such an array had his heart swelling up with anticipation. Sheldon on the other hand, was resting upon Rowans shoulders, looking like a nervous little guy. Clinging a bit to the back of Rowans jacket, the raccoon faunus had glanced in the corner of his to the animal, reaching a hand up to pet him. "It's going to be alright buddy. You and I got this. Just remember, at the end of the day, we are still two amazing dudes~. I am a little nervous too, admittedly." Nuzzling his face against the raccoon, Sheldon had nuzzled back, easing himself a little with a light hearted chatter. "That's it buddy, that's the right way of thinking~." i[]"Scree~."
Taking a few deep breaths, Rowan had forced his own self to calm, settling himself down a little. Silently he hoped anyone from TRRA would be here to see this, but at the same time, he wished they were joining with them. How he missed them.... That was the way the cookie crumbled, sad to say. They were all taking their time apart from one another. One day, he hoped they would all be ready.. One day. Thinking on this stuff however, had been a thing he was forced to put aside for now. Having to focus on what was ahead was the more important thing to do. As of now, it was show time, the moment their stage name had been announced. "Well... This is it Sheldon! Ready?" "Scrit Scrit!" With the pair nodding at one another, the pair had began to make their entrance onto the main stage, just as the setting up was commencing. With the obstacles before them, everything that had been requested was being brought up to a tee before them. "So!!! COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!" Unable to take the time to gawk in awe at it all, their performance had been about to start. "Here we go!!!" With a clumsy slide of his feet, Rowan had almost fallen forward, but had managed to catch himself. Oops!!! Laughing if off light heartedly, the faunus had began bowing to the audience, lowering enough for Sheldon to hop off him, and to made a small, lowered nod of his head as a greeting of his own. "Hello everyyyoneee!!!!! Rowan and Sheldon here to bring you the sightings of bonds!!! This is the truest might a faunus and animal can show for all you, and present the bonds of trust and love!!! We are the Ringtail brothers, and we are here to spring into action!!!" Chattering excitedly, both him and Sheldon had turned direction to each other, nodding to one another. "Let's get dazzling." Sheldon had began the turn, heading for the climbing obstacles. Rowan on the other hand had broke into a light jog, unsheathing his boomerangs from the holsters on his back. Both of them were setting up!!

If you never look at the lighter side of life once in a while...
Walking with the crowd, skipped a slender little girl, little more than four feet high and dressed in eye-catching yellow kimono and getas. Her wide and childlike dark-blue eyes looked around with wonder and excitement as her tail swayed."So much activity..."High-pitched and angelically sweet voice only carried with her excitement as she continued to take in the sights of the Fire Festival."Where is she?..."The little girl began to wonder before she would look to the man on stage that was addressing the in-coming audience."Tsu-tsu, where are you?"She frowned and walked around before walking and taking a seat four rows from the stage as she waited, her legs swinging since she could not touch the ground yet. Eyes seemed to sparkle with joy as the Racoon Brothers came on stage; their energies were infectious.
...You'll miss all the lives you've made brighter with your existence.

Microphone feedback lingered in the air for a bit before a voice spoke out, "Alright, everyone! The set is set and the talents are ready to drop your jaws to the floor! Can we get a huge round of applause for The Ringtail Brothers and get this show started the right way?!" The stands erupted in applause, cheers and even a few whistles. Pulling a remote, with a comically large red button, Garcello winded up to press it. "Ladies and gentlemen, please, keep your peepers peeper'd because the show is about to start! Ringtails, give these people a good show! Smoke 'em if you got'em!" he shouts. Garcello presses the button and the lights focused the stage. Everything that could move was in motion and the audience was drinking it up. Garcello threw the remote behind him into the trashcan. Pulling the wire from his earpiece he disconnects the mic. He coughed a few times and cleared his throat. Placing a hand onto the shoulder of a PA he says, "I'm going for a smoke. Make sure nothin' gets set on fire? Thanks." Garcello says walking off. He reaches into the right pocket of his jacket and grabs his smokes. Sitting on a bench outside the stage area he lit his square and took a long drag. "It's a nice night tonight." he says exhaling. Listening to the excitement in the arena, Garcello smiles as the brightest light was the cherry of his cigarette in the dark.

Ooc; <><><><><><><><><><><><><><> The anticipation was more than Rowan had expected. As both of then had begun their act, Rowan was prepared to get himself into the full swing of things. With moving targets nearing, Rowan had taken aim, swinging up before releasing one of the boomerangs. Putting his strength into it, the bladed boomerang had collided with the target in sight, spinning back towards him as he had hopped up onto one of the rickety obstacles for him. As for Sheldon, the young raccoon was taking it's skill of extra dexterity, bringing his fluffy body up upon the climbing obstacles, pouncing from branch to branch. Quick as the raccoon was able, the first set of hoops were approaching. To that, Rowan had caught the boomerang upon return, keeping watch in the direction of Sheldon. "You got this buddy!!"
With the thought in mind, Rowan was relieved to see Sheldon hop through, as the critter was reaching up against the next set of climbing obstacles. Once they had reached to a certain spot, the furry young animal had called down towards Rowan, who had activated his aura, pursuing towards the nearest target dummies.

Their day had started with getting ready and heading to the tea shop for work, dropping Fuyuko off at the bookshop until she was off. Then she had to change and pick up her little sister to go to the festival. Moriko had gone with Haruko, and Yuki was with her partners and Ichi to go over business. After work, she changed to a pink outfit, then she and Fuyuko spent the rest of the day having fun and enjoying the fire performances before heading to watch the talent show.
Walking through the crowd, she had told her little sister to go ahead to find a spot while she would get the popcorn. Making sure to keep Fuyuko in her sights at all times as she did."My my,"Tsuki thought, surprised to catch a glimpse of who was on stage."Thank you,"The tigress told the concession worker after paying for popcorn."Dammit, I lost sight of her,"Tsuki thought as she got out her scroll and called her sister. After getting the answer, she sighed in relief."Stay right there,"The young woman said into the scroll before heading to her sister sharing the salty-sweet treat as they enjoyed the show. Though as she watched, the tigress made a note to herself to go and catch the raccoon boy after the show. Silently noting the new companion Rowan had with him, she smiled softly. Okay...maybe the creature could stay when they got...if, she reminded herself before continuing her thought, if it was house-trained. THinking only made her desire the team to be back together as she watched.

"Get outta 'ere, kid!" Garcello said throwing a young man out. "If you wanted to watch the talent show, you should've gotten a ticket like everyone else!" he said closing the backstage door. "Man, this is bullcrap!" the tall boy with dreadlocks shouted. He stomps away with a grumble. A platform above the crowd and facing the stage lowered as smoke billowed from the bottom of it. Garcello slowly rose from the hazy depths. "The show of the two brothers are practically breathtaking! The accuracy! The elegance! What more can we expect from these Ringed Ruffians?! What's this?" Garcello asked noticing the furry partner calling to Rowan. "Do we have a team attack in the works folks! Hold on to your hats and open your wallets because you should pay extra to see this upcoming spectacle!"

Ooc; <><><><><><><><><><><><><><> The distance from each other wasn't too high, but Rowan wasn't about to take any chances on Sheldon landing horribly. During their practices, they had been preparing for this, with the height not as grand as it was now,.. Not that he height was really up all that much higher. There was enough distance however, that he couldn't afford to miss. Sheldon was willing to take the plunge however, pouncing off the obstacle down towards Rowan, who hands were outstretched, ready to catch the lovable butterball of stripes. The sounds of the crowd were all but a fleeting soft noise to the pair of them, and as Sheldon was making way towards Rowan, time had felt as if it was standing still. Paws splayed out, heart beat pounding. The pressure of everything ebbing away off the young raccoon, with his owner in sight, reaching out for him, readying themselves for the next part of their act. The color of Rowans hands from his semblance a protective sensation towards the young animal, with the breathing sensation of trust between the two, that they could proceed on and be able to take on the obstacles before them. As for Rowan's perspective, he was hoping that someone in the audience who knew him was watching, and he had yet to know that someone he cared for like family was certainly there, with a companion and all watching with them. "Ska-ree~!"
With a joyous call, Sheldon and Rowan had connected with their hands upon the rickety obstacle Rowan was upon, with Rowan's semblance covering Sheldon in a green glow, before it had dissipated, with his semblance in full activation on his ally. After connecting hands, Sheldon had used his dexterity to twist its little body upon Rowans arms, climbing across onto his shoulders, going from one side to the other, before joining upon the rickety structure by Rowan's slightly shaking foot. With the announcing already on cue with commentary, Rowan had grinned toward the man, before proceeding to the next part of the act. With the structure they were on upon itself, it possessed a slope, going up about 20 ft off the ground. While rickety, it was made that way on purpose, meant for more clumsy footing. Such a thing wasn't going to stop either faunus or raccoon though. They were upon the next course of action, as Rowan had combined his boomerangs together, to form one big hoola-hoop bladed heavy at the teeth on it's outer rim. "Time to get ourselves going!!!" Grabbing the grips of his weapon, Rowan had put the weapon itself over his head, lowering it down to his waist level, angling it perfectly horizontal. "Hoola hoola time!!!!!!!" Shouting the tactic out, Sheldon had followed suit with a happy cry, as the raccoon had proceeded up the rickety slope first. Rowan himself had awaited for Sheldon to get ahead a little, following suit up the slope. Instead of walking normally up the slope itself however, he began moving his hips, hoola hooping behind with the awkward footing. From time to time the audience would be able to see Sheldon glowing green as he had ran up, with Rowan focusing ahead to Sheldon, all while avoiding with looking down, though had to catch himself from time to time. In his mind though, Rowan was humming a conga melody he happened to hear one day when returning from the cafeteria, smiling as bright as a joyful as ever. As for Sheldon, the said targets they had pursued, the raccoon was bouncing up against the ones angled diagonally in their direction, Bouncing onto the targets, and back onto the slope, repeating it towards the same said targets, up until they had reached to the top of the slope. 20 feet up at that point at the top, both had looked around at the view a moment, just to build up effect as to the next settled course of action. Part of which, was towards a large target at the ground level, clearly meant for them to land onto in some way. As for other targets, there was moving ones before them, both being 5 feet apart from one another, with one diagonally their way, just like the ones Sheldon had been bouncing to and fro off of. The other was fairly larger, which was surely meant for Rowan in some way. Both of these targets however, was slowly raising and lowering in alternate amount of levels. The tension was surely building for the pair then~!!!
