Arashi's face brightened up with a child's glee. "Circuses you say? Filled with freaks and weirdos like you guys?" As if Arashi wasn't one himself, but he strangely considered himself quite normal. Afterall, he would say, he was just a passing by merchant.
"Which one is the weirdest one? No, wait. Let me guess! It's yours right?" Arashi pointed at Iyokou with his kiseru. Ace appeared fairly normal, but he wasn't dressed up. Iyokou's outfit however was just screaming of strangeness.

Bee flicks its ear being handed over to Ace, making sure that it hits Ace without hitting Iyokou in the same process. Ace didn't see it coming, but the ear only manages to brush his hand. Ace sighed.
"Is that so?" Ace didn't hear anything about having a fourth circus. Maybe Iyokou's circus is just passing by. That'd explain things about the relationship between the merchant and Iyokou. But wait, they mentioned "I", and not "we". Maybe they're not related at all... Just what's going on here?
"Huh...?" Ace is confused, and it's written all over his face. He wasn't expecting that sort of behavior coming out of Arashi. Arashi's comment left an impression though. I'm not weird... At least I think I'm not. He gotta admit, Iyokou's stage outfit is rather... Colorful.

Iyokou nodded quietly. "What circus are you a part of?" he asked Ace softly. He wondered what kind of a circus he would have to dress so nice to be a part of.
He turned to Arashi, looking slightly hurt at being called weird, although he was used to it by now. "It probably is the weirdest one..." he sighed. "But yes... I should probably go. It's getting late." he noted, moving towards the bright lights of his circus, still going on.

Arashi never means harm with his words, exactly like a child. No, he was a child. Cause and effect rarely bothered him unless he was scheming a little ploy and trick. He obviously offended both Iyokou and Ace, but he felt it was quite natural. He's met all sorts of freakshows that weren't in the circus and appeared quite normal. They called themselves society, cities and towns. Though he felt as though he was above that all. Neither human nor truly a demon, he'd wandered in a limbo of his own.
As Iyokou was leaving, Arashi immediately attached himself to him. Afterall, he did enjoy circuses and the stranger they were, the more entertaining the crowds were. After all, he found the true stage on the bleachers and not in the spotlight. "Hey, I wouldn't mind watching a show. Would you be performing?"

"Um... Uh..." Ace looks away from the others, "I'm a part of Cirque du Noire...?" The circus has a reputation for its dark theme, but it's only a cover for those who likes to cause trouble. Even the dark secrets of his ringleader is kept from the everyone who lives there.
Ace was about to take the red ribbon off of Bee, but stopped when Arashi clings himself to Iyokou. He stared at Arashi with a dumbfounded expression since this action reminded him of someone back at Noire. ...Eli...? Bee looks behind itself to see what is disturbing Ace, but doesn't see what's so interesting about the two men.

Iyokou grunted softly when he felt the touch of Arashi and immediately tried to get away. "Please don't. I don't like it when people touch me. Especially people I don't know." he spoke softly. His mask could block only so many germs. The rest was on him. "And yes... I have to get back to perform."
He turned to Ace. "Crique du Noire? I've heard of it..." he trailed off, thinking. He'd certainly heard of it, but no one in his circus would ever give him any details, so his mind was fuzzy on the whole idea. All he knew was that apparently, according to his own ringmaster, everyone there was completely bonkers in some way, shape, or form.
