*TT and Shamrock are in a pub*
Twenty-Three: *drinks her alcohol* So Shamrock, how's life for you?
Shamrock: Well, great. As an adult, this Pale City doesn't seem so bleary anymore. I could say I've found myself a new job in here, actually.
TT: *raises an eyebrow* Oh, really? And what kind of job?
Shamrock: I get to set the stage, things like that. I usually get free tickets to the shows.
TT: *hums* Well, you seem to have a normal balanced life.
Shamrock: *sips* As normal as it can be...
Shamrock: *puts down drink* Alright, let's cut to the chase TT. What do you want from me?
TT: Well, as you can probably see in my outfit, do I have to tell you twice?
Shamrock: ... You brought the Circus back to life?
TT: Yeah. I did.
Shamrock: *stands up* Wha-?! How?! How could you?! You know that wretched place is just some hellhole that deserved to be burned! And don't get me started, you left us there! To die!
TT: *looks down* I know what I did was unforgivable. I regret my decision everyday, Shamrock, everyday. Right now, I'm mending my mistakes... The Circus... It needs me. I have to move on the line. The Circus was only a hellhole because Joker wanted to make it a hellhole, I will change that, making it what the first Ringleader wanted it to be - a place of joy, wonder, and safety.
Shamrock: *crosses arms* And I guess, you want me back hm? Well, that's never gonna happen. I won't come back as whatever you want, and I don't forgive you as well.
TT: Hmmmm, well *sips drink and puts it down*
*music starts*
Shamrock: What the hell-
TT: Right here, right now. I put the offer out. I don't want to chase you down I know you see it.
TT: You run, with me. I can cut you free. Out of the drudgery and the walls you keep in.
TT: So trade your typical, to something colorful. And if it's crazy, live a little crazy. You can play it sensible, king of conventional.... Or you can risk it all and see...
TT: *hops up a table* Don't you wanna get away from the same old part you gotta play?! Cause I got what you need, so come with me and take the ride *spins* It'll take you to the other side
TT: 'Cause you can do like you do, or you can do like me. Stay in the cage, or you'll finally take the key
TT: *slides and hops down table* Oh, damn! Suddenly you're free to fly
It'll take you to the other side
Shamrock: *chuckles* Okay, my friend, you want to cut me in. Well I hate to tell you, but it just won't happen.
Shamrock: *turns* So thanks, but no *picks up coat* I think I'm good to go, 'cause I quite enjoy the life you say I'm trapped in.
Shamrock: *faces her* Now I admire you, and that whole show you do. You're onto something, really it's something.
Shamrock: But I live among the swells, and we don't pick up peanut shells *swipes off peanut shells on the counter while walking away*. I'll have to leave that up to you.
Shamrock: *throws coat and turns at her* Don't you know that I'm okay with this uptown part I get to play? 'Cause I got what I need and I don't want to take the ride. I don't need to see the other side.
Shamrock: *hops on the bar counter* So go and do like you do. I'm good to do like me. *Skips sideways* Ain't in a cage, so I don't need to take the key!
Shamrock: *hops down and poses* Oh, damn! Can't you see I'm doing fine? I don't need to see the other side.
TT: *sits on a piano and plays* Now is this really how you like to spend your days? Whiskey and misery, and parties and plays...
Shamrock: *turns to her* If I were mixed up with you, again, I'd be the talk of the town. *Turns back to the exit* Disgraced and disowned, another one of the clowns!
TT: *turns to Shamrock while playing, softer this time* But you would finally live a little... Finally laugh a little... Just let me give you the freedom to dream... And it'll wake you up and cure your aching... Take your walls and start 'em breaking... Now that's a deal that seems worth taking!
TT: *stops playing and shrugs while picking up her glass and taking a shot* But I guess I'll leave that up to you...
Shamrock: *stops walking and raises eyebrow in interest.*
Shamrock: *turns to her* Well it's intriguing, but to go would cost me greatly. So what percentage of the show would I be taking?
TT: *stands up and smiles* Fair enough, you'd want a piece of all the action... I'd give you seven, we could shake and make it happen!
Shamrock: *laughs while walking over to the counter where the Bartender is preparing another set* I wasn't born this morning, eighteen would be just fine!
TT: *smirks* Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on the dime?!
Shamrock: *squints at her* Fifteen.
TT: *folds her arms* I'd do eight.
Shamrock: *copies her* Twelve.
TT: *shrugs* Maybe nine?
Shamrock: *looks at her seriously* Ten.
TT: *raises her eyebrow, then gets a drink.*
Shamrock: *smirks while doing the same*
Both: *starts dancing* Don't you wanna get away to a whole new part you're gonna play?! 'Cause I got what you need, so come with me and take the ride... To the other side!!!
TT: So if you do like I do...
Shamrock: So if you do like me!
Both: *sideskipping, again* Forget the cage, 'cause we know how to make the key! Oh, damn! Suddenly we're free to fly!!
Both: *looks at each other* We're going to the other side!!!
TT: So if you do like I do...
Shamrock: To the other side!
TT: So if you do like me...
Shamrock: We're going to the other side!
Both: 'Cause if we do we're going to the other side!!
Both: *poses* We're going to the other side.
- L A T E R -
Both: *walks out of the pub*
Spade: Well, the talk seemed to go well then.
TT: *giggles* Yup! *gives both a side hug* C'mon you two, let's go home...
Spade: I like the sound of that.
Shamrock: same.
TT: I miss you guys...
Shamrock: You know I get half the payment of the Circus now, right?
Spade: W h a t.
TT: *chuckles dryly* About that....
Spade: TT we need to talk if Shammy here gets half the payment!
TT: Well....
Shamrock: Man I miss being called that.
Spade: Zip it Shammy.
TT: I can't give you half as well Spade! Where would be my payment then?
Spade: Favoritism :<
Shamrock: Who was the parent in this group, may I recall?
Spade: Favoritism!!!
TT: Oh zip it Spade, you also get manager powers. You two are my, let's say... right and left hands.
Spade: Certainly I'm the left one, aren't I?
TT: Yup! Just in case....
Spade: Just in case someone needs some beating up but must be hidden in the shadows?
TT: Yup!
Shamrock: Well here is our TT, the queen of planning and strategizing.
TT: Oh no don't say that... You flatter me.
Shamrock: *chuckles* whatever you say, Puppeteer.
