Carlos hadn’t been to a circus in years – not since he was little. But there had been a raffle at work and Carlos had won a coupon for a free ticket. He kinda hoped that his brother and/or his dad were in town so he could invite them to go with him.
Carlos made his way to the ticket office that was set up, standing in the line with his coupon as he looked at everything around him. Some things were different than what he remembered or imagined a circus to be like, but not everything could be a dated cliche trope he supposed.
Once at the ticket office he smiled and offered the coupon. “Hey… this any good?” he asked in a joking manner.
“Don’t
worry,” Skip said to the other scientist as he caught Lore in his arms,
lifting them into a bridal hold before slowly levitating them just a
few inches above his hands. “I’ve got a better place,” He seemed a bit
more concentrated now, eyes firm on their body as he let them lay in the
air.
“But Lore wanted to see the show later,” another scientist said. “They were really excited about it. I think they’ll appreciate it better to be here when they wake up.”
