Abstract

cus is that the performers <i>are </i>the animals — they are painted up as anything and everything from tigers to flamingos. Sometimes, several performers may be painted into a single animal and then break apart into individuals like the Tigers. They are welcomed into the arena as a single large tiger which then separates to become three individual tigers. Mark, ringmaster and lion tamer, skillfully handles his lions while they perform tricks and sometimes let out a little aggravation as tigers do. The animals, are everywhere.</p><p id="c22d">But there is one animal in particular in the Rainbow Circus that I’ve mentioned before: The puppy.

WRITING

When the Animals Play

Day 29 Preptober writing prompt challenge

Day 29: Do any of your characters have pets or animal sidekicks?

Question from the Preptober 31 Day Challenge from the Character Collective.

Rainbow Circus animal parade

Wow, okay, this one is super cool because I have a very specific pet or animal sidekick. Actually, I have quite a few in the Rainbow Circus. Allow me to explain. Firstly, as far as animal sidekicks, they are kind of everywhere because in the Rainbow Circus there are no actual animals, but there are plenty of beasts!

The Rainbow Circus is designed around conservation and equality. This includes the fact that they don’t have any actual animals. One of the primary draw cards of the Rainbow Circus is that the performers are the animals — they are painted up as anything and everything from tigers to flamingos. Sometimes, several performers may be painted into a single animal and then break apart into individuals like the Tigers. They are welcomed into the arena as a single large tiger which then separates to become three individual tigers. Mark, ringmaster and lion tamer, skillfully handles his lions while they perform tricks and sometimes let out a little aggravation as tigers do. The animals, are everywhere.

But there is one animal in particular in the Rainbow Circus that I’ve mentioned before: The puppy. I discovered recently during one of these Pretober Daily Challenges, that puppy’s human name is Petra.

Maybe that’s her puppy name as well but everyone calls her puppy. Petra isn’t just into puppy play, she spends most of her day as puppy. She wanders around Rainbow Circus cuddling up to the performers (Mark in particular) and getting treats. She spends her days lounging around, playing, sleeping, running, and being a puppy. She is the Rainbow Circus’ puppy and Mark is technically her handler. They’re also best friends and have been for a very long time, ever since they were in school together.

Everyone looks after puppy. They know what she means to Mark and what she means to everyone at the circus. Now, Petra has some secrets, but they are too big as spoilers for me to share with you right now. You’ll just have to read the series. Wait, I have to write it first. Stick around.
