#circusanon

You've been, on and off, exploring around the edges of the circus when you're sure you won't be caught. You're really intrigued by their sense of family, even if you won't admit it. But even then, you still won't enter the big tent. The small tents, however, are fair game. As long as there's no one inside.

You twitch your nose a little and look around. Jane's not home. No one online seems to want to interact, either. You give a little sigh and remember something. An alternate of you said you could tweak your transportalizer gun to send you places you wanted to go.

Sitting down in your room, dressed in just a long-sleeved and a skirt, clothes Jane cave you, you begin working. Taking it apart, examining it, figuring out how it works. It's really quite complicated. When you walk across the room to grab your laptop, is when something bad happens.

It happens in an instant, really. The gun went off on its own. Space and time are ripped apart around you, and you're hurtled somewhere you've never been before, deposited on your hands and knees.

You circle your cave one last time, kicking at some pebbles and making sure you haven't left anything you're going to need behind. You're a bit surprised at yourself for finally deciding to go through with this. Ever since your change in appearance, you've made a point of isolating yourself from others, hoping to avoid the odd looks you invariably receive, or the copious amount of pity from people who claim they want to help. But this time is different. This time you're going to stay with Opal (and her kids), not just because she wants to baby you and take care of you. No, when you're with Opal, you actually feel kind of normal again. You realized a while ago that she actually cares about you, in spite of your abnormalities.
