Welcome to the Show
Loupy was so proud, getting to dress as a ringleader. It was a rare event for his diapers to be mostly hidden, especially when compared to Snow. The bear was barely dressed to make him look more like a feral, only being allowed socks and a skirt in addition to his required diapers. "Let's practice for the spectacle of tomorrow."
The pisse-lit (bedwetter in French) pizzly whimpered "Why did I accept to participate to this charity circus? I only wanted to donate money".
The wolf giggled. "We both know I'm in charge and you are my plush. This act is listed as Mr Loyal (ringleader in French) and his Incredibly Padded Plush".
“You’re padded too, don’t think it doesn’t peek out under that coat” , Snow huffed as he struggled to balance. “I don’t know what is more unbelievable, that you signed us up for this or that I’m able to balance at all!”
“Oh stop fussing, you only fell a few dozen times. Plus your padding cushioned some of the falls … and makes the act even more adorable. Besides the show is long and you know you can't stay dry for more than a few minutes, hence the quintuple layers!”
“HUFF, me!? You're the puddle pup here. And my diapers will not be part of the show! This skirt covers nothing, if I do this it’s being fully covered!”
“Too late for that now …” the puppy chuckled “everyone has already seen you.”
“Wha … there is no audience!?”
The wolf pup points to the camera “the rehearsals are live streamed and played back for the audience during the preshow”. Loupy pressed a finger to the earbud, listening to the streams announcer. “Oh my we are raising a lot. You already have a dozen bids to change your diapers, baby plush. Sounds like you won’t be coming home with me tonight”.
“WHAT!!! … Aaaaah!” *THUD*
The wolf giggles turn into a gasp of surprise, “someone bid how much to puppysit me!? HUFF!”.

While not initially intended to be a door sign, this would have made a wonderful one for NFC (this year is circus theme), but unfortunately our hotel don't allow them. We will instead put it up inside the room for the enjoyment of guests and housekeepers.
Another fantastic picture (with alts) by @blankit
Just had a memory come back from when I was maybe three years old. My parents took me to a circus in the city, a Russian circus. We took an elevated train to get there. I remember bears and acrobats, clowns and trapeze artists. It made a huge impression on my young mind.
I think we bought a large booklet there full of photos. Long lost now, of course.
But I do remember that the circus was magical. And I dreamed about it occasionally, for decades.
This was my "wanting to run away to join the circus" moment.. and I kinda did...

When you do circus as a hobby you accumulate a lot of props over time.
Usually I give props to people who are thinking to buy some but cannot afford it. When they are learning and have intrinsic motivation it is a joy giving.
Over time I have given away 10 diabolos, 11 balls, 1 pair of diabolo sticks and a unicycle. But still I own 10 diabolos, 4 pairs of diabolo sticks, 3 hoops, 14 clubs, 2 Kendamas and 6 balls.
Share the love of circus!
went to a #paranormal #horror #circus last night with a friend
was kinda cool although honestly i wouldnt pay to see it again lol (not a bad show, but pretty boring at times)
i took this picture during the intermission, and it came out really cool
some notable moments of the circus:
1. the acrobats doing really physically demanding stunts
2. a group of men dressed as nuns (would that count as #drag ?) doing sick tricks with jump rope and a trampoline
3. a spotlight that was directly in my eyesight at one point in the show, making me wince and look like i was recoiling from the perfomance
4. the circus using some songs from the #doom soundtrack (my friend pointed this out to me, is that legal????)
in any case, it was a nice break from the mundanity of day to day life, 👍
Winter storm hits Greensboro but Ringling Bros. has circus today anyway to avoid ticket refunds.
Ticketmaster. Yuck. I've been ripped off by Ticketmaster before, but this is the first time for Ringling.

We went to see Cirque Alice at the Canberra Theatre last night.
A great show, first time for a while my expectations have been really exceeded.
