3nanashiIt's late afternoon. The first show is at 6:00 -- 1800, Trowa still thinks of it really, but the translation is easy -- and most of the circus is making early dinners or otherwise enjoying the downtime before they have to get ready.
Trowa opens the door from Milliways into the trailer he shares with Cathy, and lets X follow him through.
It's a narrow room, combining kitchen and common room in a compact and tidy package, with doors to Trowa's room, Cathy's, and the bathroom. (And, behind them, to the outside.) It's all lived-in, in an impeccably tidy way.

Date: 2010-11-12 01:42 am (UTC)They do not need to spend the night in their small moving cages. And, while there are other people around the circus who can take care of them, Trowa is generally elected. For obvious reasons.
"Cathy'll be coming by soon."

Beat.
"Moving the lions."

Date: 2010-11-12 02:07 am (UTC)Well. Expressionlessly.
It's not his fault that Duo has weird irrational worries about hanging out with giant toothy predators. Or odd hang-ups about using words for conversation.
To X: "No. The cages are already in the tent. I just need to move them to the big one."

"I am allowed to see?"
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 02:15 am (UTC)Why not?

Date: 2010-11-12 02:33 am (UTC)"Meet you back at the trailer!" he calls over his shoulder.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 02:39 am (UTC)She may or may not be kidding.
Her facial lack of expression makes it difficult to tell.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 02:42 am (UTC)Trowa may or may not be, also. Who can tell?
(Probably X can.)
Meanwhile: off to the lions!

Date: 2010-11-12 02:53 am (UTC)X may, at this juncture, request a beverage.
It is important to stay hydrated.

Date: 2010-11-12 02:55 am (UTC)"So, how long you sticking around for?"
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 03:01 am (UTC)"I do not know."
Beat.
"I do not think it will be multiple days."
Unless she missed a memo, which is unlikely.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 03:05 am (UTC)"Probably just the evening."
This is said with a sidelong glance at X -- unless she wants to stick around longer? -- but it's what he was assuming.

Date: 2010-11-12 03:08 am (UTC)It is a very small nod.

Date: 2010-11-12 03:12 am (UTC)"Sorry," says Trowa.
Deadpan.
no subject
Date: 2010-11-12 03:13 am (UTC)She is a very serious person.
Especially right now.

Maybe?
