    Summary

    Title - song by Laufey

    To escape his rotten home life, Gally runs away to the circus

    ***
    “You forgotten how to talk or what, shank?”

    Proving the acrobat’s point, Gally opened his mouth and closed it again, lost for words. The man above him had shaggy black hair, tanned skin, and the most gorgeous brown eyes he had ever seen.

    “I.. hi?” He swallowed, a sense of warmth crawling up his neck.

    Summary

    As a member of the renowned Circus of the Hearth, Lyney is used to life on the road. His troupe, famous all over Teyvat, migrates from nation to nation with clockwork precision; they stay for two months — no more, no less — and only return the following year. It's a demanding life without vacation or reprieve, and there are no excuses for bad weather. Lyney thought this relentless tradition was simply the price of excellence, the required cost to maintain their status as the continent's premier circus.

    That is, until the Liyue season started and he fell madly in love with another traveler, who had recently decided to take a break from his journey and put down some roots. Trapped between the only life he has ever known and a new one he desperately wants, Lyney faces an impossible question: how is he supposed to leave now?

    Summary

    Anika shivered in the cold as she put down the tin. “What do you think?” She asked holding up a small mirror and the lantern for Inej to see.
    “Great, thank you Anika.” She smiled quickly before glancing back at the entrance where light from the oil lanterns strung throughout the tent shone through the slit in the fabric.
    “Don’t be nervous, I’ve seen you up there before, you make it look so easy.” Anika said, noticing her concern.
    “I’m not nervous, but thank you.”
    A second later cheers erupted from the tent and Kaz’s coarse voice came through the noise of the crowd. “That was our amazing stilt walker, now make some noise for the girl who can walk on air!”

    What if the dregs was a circus instead of a gang?
    Do not fear, I will make the tags better later

    Summary

    Shadowpeach Circus AU - Strongman!Wukong x Illusionist!Macaque

    The stage. The applause.

    Wukong felt his heart hammering in his chest as he performed. The lights were shining in his eyes and he couldn’t see the faces of the people in the crowd, but he could feel their eyes on him. They were all watching. They were waiting to see his performance. Judging it. He kept on a smile, lifting an iron pole that held a couple of the other performers, bending that pole after lowering them back to the ground, juggling tires with ease and praying he didn’t drop one of them from stress. Did he imagine the way one of them nearly slipped from his hands? He felt like they could all see right through him. They could see that he was struggling to remember his lines. Even though he’d performed this so many times, he still felt like the words were trying to slip from his mind. There were a couple times when he couldn’t even remember the lines that he was supposed to say, but he opened his mouth and they came out anyway. He’d done this performance a hundred times… he could do this. He could do this.

    Summary

    It was getting dark now, and the great black tent of the circus just visible outside the city bounds was slowly disappearing against the fading sky. Branzy couldn’t see any of the smaller red and black stripped tents surrounding it from where he was, but the main tent was obvious even from just the part that could been seen, appearing to lean towards the city with a promise of blood.

    OR: Branzy decides that the safest place to hide is where no one would ever expect to find a coward.

    Summary

    1902.

    Sirius and Regulus Black have forged a new life as the Brothers Astral, dazzling audiences beneath the striped canvas of the Cirque du Siècle. The performers are a collection of muggles, muggle-borns, and disillusioned purebloods, drawn to the danger, glitter, and hedonism of the big-top. All chasing something brighter than the lives they fled.

    But old school ties, buried grief, and unexpected connections collide with the brothers, threatening to unravel the fragile world they've built beneath the canvas.

    Summary

    Sirius would be the first to admit that he was prone to unnecessary dramatics, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that something of the person he had been was lifted away with the curtain call. One version of Sirius had entered the tent and a different one walked back out into the sun. It was, in a way, exactly what Walburga Black had hoped for; what an enjoyable irony to comfort himself with as he reluctantly left the stage behind.

    In post-war England with society on the precipice of a major shift, Sirius Black reaches the tipping point within his own family. With nowhere else to go, he turns to a new friend and his family's traveling circus for an escape. Even with the fresh start he hoped for and an unexpected chance at love, eventually, Sirius must admit that one family can never be entirely left behind for another.

    Summary

    นัยน์ตาสีเขียวมรกตเหลือบมองไปตามต้นทางที่มีเสียงฝีเท้าดัง ตึก… ตึก… ค่อย ๆ ใกล้เข้ามา ท่ามกลางความเย็นยะเยือกของพื้นกรงเหล็กที่แนบผิวกาย ร่างนั้นรับรู้ได้โดยปริยายว่าผู้ใดกำลังย่างกรายเข้ามาหาตนในยามนี้
     
    “วันนี้เธอทำได้ดีมาก ไรโตะ”
 

    นั่นเป็นเสียงของคนที่เขาคุ้นเคยเป็นอย่างดี
