[... okay, now that was pretty interesting. She calls her up with curiosity written all over her face.]

So, were those two actually standing on that wire thing - or was that just your dream running wild there? Because whatever that was, it's a pretty cool idea.

What is it with this thing? M'dreams are not for everyone to see!

...Y-yeah. Those two were amazin' when it came to stunts like that. They musta been in a circus before.

Yeah? Well it happens to everyone here, so I guess you'll just have to get used to it. Besides, stuff like this's interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing a couple more.

A circus... huh. Can't say I've ever seen one. What's it like?

Never been to one? You should come out to Noah's Ark! If... we can ever get outta here, that is...

It's a lotta fun, mate! I can walk the tightrope too - that's what I do. We've got knife throwers an' snake charmers an' fire breathers... All sorts of stuff!

[Piiing.] You can walk on ropes? Huh. I mean, ropes weren't exactly made to be walked on- and, well, how the hell do you do that?

S'an old, old art. Just requires a lotta, well, balance. Obviously. Usually s'not just plain rope so much as a particular kinda wire, but I've done rope before.

I could show you sometime.

A lot of balance, huh. I can see how the theory itself would be pretty easy to figure out. But doing it must be a completely different thing all together.

I wouldn't mind if you did, actually. You're new here, right? Maybe you can show me how that works in exchange for me showing you around, or something.

Sure! If I can find a proper place to do it. I wouldn't mind that at all.

All right, then. Do you need any place special to do it, or can any rope stretched between any two random buildings work?

Er... I guess that could work. It'd be kinda dangerous, though. There's not any proper circus equipment here, is there?

Well, I'm not really sure what you need, really. I just kinda thought that all you'd need was a rope and that's it.

What kind of stuff constitutes as 'circus equipment' anyway?

It's gotta be a good, strong rope. That's why we normally use a thick wire. If it's really taut, we might be okay with that.
