Pirouline's Links
"Mixter Cake! Them and I are very good friends, even with their little crush on me, hmhm~! They look up to me, I know, but they're an inspiration themself. I'm going to retire before them more than likely- I've been in this business a long time -but they're going to go far, that one."
-Pirouline has put more trust into Funnel than she has anyone in the last couple of decades. Applying to work at the circus was originally some lost, last ditch effort to reclaim herself and who she used to be, but nowadays, it's the most fun she's ever had and the safest she's felt in forever. She's cool and calm and collected about it all, but she wants to give Funnel the world in return for what they've done for her and can't wait to watch them and everyone else grow as performers after she leaves one day.
"Well, well, well, the dance routine queen Pirouline! I look up to her so much- both literally and figuratively! She's the most talented person I know and that is no understatement. I was floored when she came to work here, but I shook the stars out of my eyes to have a proper friendship with her."
-Funnel had a crush on Pirouline, but after getting rejected because she doesn't date her coworkers, they let it drop and tried instead to be a good friend to her. They still struggle with being starstruck towards her, even after all these years, but view her as someone that they can come to with their problems and most commonly put her in charge of the circus if they aren't around. They made a promise to her when she first applied that they would always catch her if she would fall and has yet to break it after all this time.
"Mon petit Moïse Suppose! Poppy Seed is a star with what he does here- that nickname of his proves it -but he's still young and has much to learn. And I am happy to teach him."
"Pirouline, the absolute QUEEN of queens! She took me under her wing and taught me how to tap dance when she got hired, like I didn't look up to her ALREADY!"
"Song Bird is such delightful company! He's always a treat to be around, that sweetie bird, and he's one of the few people I know that can handle the wine I drink. He's fun to gossip with- all out of good-nature, of course... Most of good nature, heh."
"Oh, I love this woman so much. She takes me all over town to the shops and malls that I don't get to go to often and buys me make-up and pretty clothes, all while we gossip over juice, heh! Well, I have juice, she has coffee."
"Mon charmant mari, l'amour de ma vie, mon rayon de soleil, mon bâton de cannelle!! Je l'aime tellement, it's almost distracting, hehehe~! He's such a big scary terror in the city, being the ever fearsome Detective Fireball, but I know that he's really a big big sweetheart underneath that fedora. He's so sweet and charming, I've never felt so loved by a significant other before~...."
*sigh~* "Me hen, me bonnie lassie, mo bhean~.... Tha gaol cho mòr agam oirre... She's the love of me life! A never thought A could feel this way about another person, or A least A lost the faith about it after A went off the grid, but here A am and here she is with me. A-Admittedly, though, A did always have a little bit of a thing for her, heh..."
"Ah yes, ma fille et ma chienne, all in one, hmhm~ I happily took her- and many others -into my home after she got hired at Crackerjack and had nowhere else to go after the day was done. I love her like my own, even when I watch her get into a car chase on the news in her clown car with the others."
"She's.... Pirouline is my mom, it would just be a damn lie to say anything else, a damn OBVIOUS one at that. When I first got hired at the circus, I didn't have place to live still and she offered me a room in her big fancy mansion up on a hill. Since then, I've come to love her like a mom over these years and with how she threatens to ground me despite me bein' nearly 30, I think the feelin's mutual."
"Roasted is basically my nephew, by choice! He was shy and stand-offish at first, you'll probably hear him described as cold, but the child is a big wintery teddy bear when you get to know him."
"Ah. M-Miss. Pir.ou.line... She's. ver.y. sweet. to. me. and. I've. had. a. few. of. my. bal.ler.in.as. re.fer. to. her. as. my. 'wine. aunt.' and, se.par.ate.ly, I. know. what. those. words. mean, heh. She. truth.ful.ly. helped. me. with. o.pen.ing. up. more. here. at. the. cir.cus!"
"L-Listen... Sometimes, things don't work out how you think they will... and it... it hurts... but you have to move on from it..."
"Sometimes things don't go the way you'll think they will and that's... that's okay. There's no hard feelings between the two of us, honest."
"Aaaaaah, Monsieur Skittles. We go get morning coffee together sometimes and other times, I'm the one in charge of hauling him over my shoulder when he bothers Funnel too much with his little 'suggestions.'"
"....She reminds me of my twin, before everything went down the drain the way it did."
