[➜] Labyrinth

(I'll post int he infirmary lol)

Hangeng could only shake his head, though dropping the other on the floor was very tempting when the nibbling on his neck continued. "You're not denying, stop being such a drama queen," he retorted towards his boss as he continued to carry the male on his back. It amazed him how dramatic the other could be when he wanted to. After a few minutes, he managed to find his way out of the maze and continued to carry the other out and towards the infirmary.

@Hangeng Onew giggled when he heard Hangeng ask Kira if he could help him. It was ridiculous how he would ask the kitten for help, yet that was probably why it was so entertaining. "Move faster hyunggg," he teased, managing to nibble on Hangeng's neck even with the pain in his leg. "Come onnn, I'm dyingggg," he murmured, clawing at his shirt lightly.

Hangeng had waited, patiently for the other to move onto him and hold on. He didn't want to rush the other in case it would cause him pain or further injury and once he concluded that the other was holding tight, he pushed himself onto his feet slouching forward. Hangeng let out a small grunt as his body accustomed to the sudden weight before he began to move out of the labyrinth. He rolled his eyes, though not surprised that the other still seemed cheery even if he was in pain. He felt the other nuzzle and he shut his eyes before sighing. He glanced down at Kira and couldn't help but ask, "Can you help us out Kira?" as he walked along the labyrinth guessing.

@Hangeng "I-I think I can..." Onew muttered, limping up onto both legs and placing one hand on Hangeng's shoulder to balance himself. He bit his lip and levered himself slowly onto his hyung's back, trying to keep pressure off of his leg. This wasn't the first time Hangeng was saving him. There had been more than many occsaions where the ringmaster had found himself flailing on a trapeze or tripping over his own feet. If the other wasn't around he would most likely end up dead. "Take me to the infirmaryyy~" he said with a small spurt of cheer, nuzzling his face into Hangeng's neck.

@Onew/Jinki Hageng frowned towards the other as he complained, rolling his eyes slightly though there was a guilt that struck him from causing the other pain. "Stop fidgeting Onew and don't press anything against it," he added as he gently removed the other's hand. "And I know you didn't fall on purpose you clumsy ringmaster," he teased lightly, trying to raise the other spirits as we wore a smile. Hangeng also couldn't help but chuckle at the sudden canary that flew away from the others collar; it seemed his boss would never outgrow his quirks, which he found cute. "Seems like we have to go to the infirmary, can you get on my back?" he asked.

"Don't touch it, it hurtsss," Onew whined, placing his hands over his scraped shin, though they hovered lightly because to touch the wound would hurt too much. "I didn't fall on purpose, I swear..." Onew tagged on after. He feared the other would laugh at him for this embarrassing blunder. With his nerves on edge he ended up jumping slightly and sending a canary flying out of his shirt collar. Dammit... Onew thought he'd trained enough to get rid of his magic hiccups. The fact that this was happening now made him flush even more red and seethe with embarrassment.

@Onew/Jinki Hangeng stopped running, he was no fool. He would have ended up lost in the maze if he even tried to figure out where the ringmaster was the old fashioned way. He took the opportunity to push himself onto the walls of brush before using them to walk towards where the other was yelling at him from. However, he froze hearing the stumble from the boss and he sighed. He quickly moved to reach the ringmaster and once he saw him, he frowned. He leaped down and rushed over, falling to his knees to look over the injury. "Aish, I told you didn't I?" he asked with a sigh. "Lay down and relax," he ordered as he tried to see the extent of it.

@Hangeng "I'm not gonna trip!" Onew shouted back to Hangeng wherever he was in the labyrinth. He laughed to himself as he turned back out of the dead end and ran down another corridor, forgetting to keep a hand on the maze wall. "Can't catch meeeee!" he called, his voice hitching up near the end, however, when he stumbled and fell forward. Kira fell out of his hands, the kitten wailing as he ran away to furiously at his fur. "Owww..." Onew moaned painfully, grabbing his knee that had taken the brunt of the impact and the majority of the skid.

@Onew/Jinki Hangeng groaned, not liking the fact that he would have to go running after the ringmaster. He does admit, however, that it brought back memories from long ago when he had first arrived in which he had to run after the male for in fear he would destroy something when he still hadn't had full control of his magic when it came to emotions. He jogged, not wanting to run as he laughed. "Yeah we shall see... if you don't trip!" he called out with a grin.

@Hangeng "Hyunggggg, hyungggggg~ Can't catch meee~!" Onew shouted as he dated off into the labyrinth. He sidestepped around the fountain, nearly falling in but catching his balance just in time. The last thing he wanted was to douse himself in water when there was already a chilly breeze out. "Can't catch meeee!" Onew shouted, turning around a couple corners only to already find himself at a dead end.

Hangeng gazed down at their hands briefly before continuing down the isle. He chuckled at the sight of the always growing and always orange kitten. Hangeng reached over and scratched Kira behind his ears for a moment; he sighed and though about the various kittens still in his room also that continued to grow and create a mess through out it. He smiled slightly, shaking his head just as they reached the labyrinth.

Baekhyun slid through an opening and took off running, he had found the secret passage to here and he was so close to mapping the annoying thing. He rounded a corner and crashed into something, or... someone? He looked up, "S-Sorry." He muttered, the word being all to familler to him now.

The ringmaster rolled his eyes at Luhan's stoic, nearly impassive behavior. It wasn't uncommon for him to encounter different personalities in the circus; he would have to adjust just like they needed to adjust to him as it was in regular life. He knew he had a bit of adjusting to do with this particular performer, though, but challenges were always fun. "Well then I'll try not to get on that bad side of yours... I quite like not being a blue colour," he said, tapping his chin and drifting off into space. A small grin pulled at his lips, however, and he started walking, not sure where to, but some day he'd end up leaving the labyrinth. "So, have you found the exit yet?" he asked, though the answer was clear as day.

@Onew/Jinki The boy merely shrugged, watching as the animals disappear in thin air, unmoved by the abrupt trick that he's seen many times in his lifetime. "Well, you brought them up in the first place so that's the price," Luhan sighed, dusting off his clothes from any nature that happened to be still attached to his body, removing a single pine needle from his blonde hair. "And that depends on the situation and my mood. If it's harsh enough, maybe," He wasn't really the type to harm items or people, however when he deemed it necessary, he decide to use physical abuse in order to express his feelings.

"Why must you hurt my birds?" Onew asked, huffing in annoyance at seeing one of the precious beings hurt. He didn't like seeing any living thing being injured and he'd be a liar if he said that didn't bother him to see Luhan hurting the innocent creature. "I do what I want," he answered, however. "I live in the moment and don't think about the future..." He took some steps towards Luhan, snapping his fingers and making his flock disappear so that none of them would get injured again. "When you screw up, do you hurt everything?" he asked, quirking an eyebrow and grinning.

@Onew/Jinki Suddenly, the boy was greeted by a swarm of birds, sitting atop his shoulders and head as his his lips pressed tightly down into a thin line, obviously not amused by the other's pranks and wanting to physically and brutally injure the latter without any remorse later on. "So when you screw up...you use magic to fix up your issues?" Luhan muttered, shaking his head as he knocked a single small bird off his shoulder with his fist, hearing a screech of pain float past his ears. At least he wasn't planning to eat them, or perhaps that was only for later on as well. "Abusive much?"

The marker hit his head with a little thud, pinching his scalp and leaving a dull throb in its place. Whipping around, Onew brought a hand to the back of his head and narrowed his eyes at Luhan. "Yah! You think that's funny?" he called, taking the marker and throwing it back. Unfortunately... He was not talented in anything but magic and the marker veered to the left, flying into the hedge, probably lost forever. He cursed under his breath, kicking at the ground with his bare foot. He was determined to make up for his loss of pride and snapped his fingers, his chest swelling when a flock of canaries landed upon the pink boy. "Ha!"

@Onew/Jinki The pink skinned boy shook his head, standing up to pick up the fallen marker, spiking it towards the merrily one and striking him on the back of his head. Luhan grinned in approval, his knife throwing skills coming in handy when he needed it. Now if only the marker was an actual knife, this would have been more than being satisfied. Strange enough, the mustached boy still hadn't received a name, and was pretty sure the latter knew his title. Perhaps over next time, the both of them could exchange names, but Luhan was sure that this time was going to come sooner than he had thought.

Onew giggled, proud of his new, pink Hitler masterpiece. It was even funnier to see such an enraged and peeved expression on Luhan's face since it just reassured him that his revenge was going to stick with him for a long time. At least this way he could almost guarantee that Luhan would prank him back which would start a war which would keep him entertained for a long, long time. And since the ringmaster was a bit ADHD in his constant need for fun, this was a good thing. "Well, if I may chime in, I think this is an improvement!" Onew called, giving a swift nod and climbing off Luhan. He let the marker fall onto Luhan's chest, snickering once more at the pink skin and skipping off. Who knew if Luhan would chase him and seek immediate revenge or not? It was going to come, Onew just didn't know when.

@Onew/Jinki Having the biggest desire to punch the other in the throat, his snarky comebacks still kept put because he wasn't going to lose his identity too along with his once perfected appearance and flawless skin that was now covered in black marker. Perhaps this is a good experience to know that this confirmed that most performers here were complete morons with the capabilities of a very talented one. "At least I know that I'm still more attractive than you will ever be," he snickered, his hands clenching into a fist at his sides, keeping his composure and not letting the other get the satisfaction that Luhan definitely did not like this.

Indeed, as Luhan was making fun of him, Onew's mind had been spinning other ways he could prank the boy for having ruined his favourite pair of overalls with water. Okay, he was exaggerating when he said they were ruined but he was wet and being in wet denim had to be one of those things on the top ten most unpleasant things in the world. The permanent marker was an amateur prank for a man of his caliber, but he had figured out a way that Onew could make Luhan think it was just permanent marker, and yet violate his skin in a whole other way. "Laugh all you want, but I'm not the one with the Hitler mustache," the ringmaster boasted, taking out a marker he'd conjured from thin air and popping off the cap. He snickered as he let the tip touch to Luhan's face and drew on him. However, with each of his black marker, Luhan's skin turned a darker shade of pink, making him look like a blonde pig.

@Onew/Jinki He wanted to facepalm ever so badly for the other's suggestion in payback for leaving him soaked to the bone, which was technically still true since the latter's clothes were still drenched and Luhan could feel part of the damp fabric transfer itself to his own. But permanent marker? Really? He thought he had underestimated the other since he did indeed obtain magic, but something as simple as violating another's skin with drawing utensils wasn't what Luhan had in mind, however it was better than among the other options that include having a spell casted on him. "I don't have all day, you know," he said lazily, pursing his lips as he stared back at the other, wondering how long was it going to be until he had decided.

Onew rolled his eyes, honestly undeterred by the snide remarks of the boy he was currently squishing. Sure, he had a bit of a body complex, but one thing he knew was that he was not in any way fat, and this boy - Luhan he could see now for he always took the time to know each of his performers upon their arrival - could deal with his weight. "I'm debating what to do to you, actually," the ringmaster began, hoping that this boy didn't know him yet to be the ringmaster and would just see him as a regular old performer that he'd have to live with. It always made things more fun when others didn't know that he was the boss. "I don't know if I should draw you a mask in permanent marker... Or something else..." he said, letting the latter fall hanging and topping it with a little smirk so it wouldn't look like he the truth - which was that he couldn't think up of a second option on the spot.

@Onew/Jinki "You are sitting on me and your weight is unbearable. You might want to rethink about what you said about me escaping, considering it is impossible," the blonde derided, rolling his eyes at the immaturity of the other as he shifted uncomfortably from the pressure on his body. His headache still ached from the previous attempt to stop him in his tracks, however this person's heaviness had topped that, his limbs being slightly crushed. "So now what are you planning to do, now that you have 'caught' me?"

As expected, Onew was able to cut off the other boy like he'd been planning all along. of course, leave it to his clumsiness to make it so that they rammed into each other full force, sending them both veering backwards onto their butts. "Oof!" the ringmaster groaned, the wind being knocked out of his lungs. When he saw that the other person was in front of him, however, he quickly crawled over like he was able to breathe, though he wasn't, and pushed him down with both arms. Steadied as he was, he sat on the performer, cheering triumphantly. "I have caught you! If you try to run I'll make you permanently blue, so don't even think about it!" he said, boasting only a little.

@Onew/Jinki As he glanced back, he had realized the other hadn't followed him this time. Maybe he had became utterly exhausted that he couldn't keep up with Luhan's energy, for the adrenaline was spurring in his limbs as he continued dashing forward, stopping momentarily to take a breather. He bent over, resting his hands on his bent knees to regain his strength. Much to his disappointment, the blonde wasn't a psychic and couldn't tell the future, so this was clearly not a good idea when he finally rose up, turning around and running again just to clash into another person, the impact strong enough to send Luhan flying backwards into a shrub, taking a random guess that this was his victim that fell under his prank.

Onew was getting breathless. Unfortunately for him he wasn't an acrobat or a man whose talent needed much exercising so he wasn't in the best shape of his life. The fact that he didn't have a belly was a mystery t o him him since his combination of sugar and laziness usually made people obese. "Stop runninggggg!" The ringmaster shouted, getting annoyed that he had to run so much. He still had all the branches stuck to his body and now his feet were getting sore. With a grunt of frustration he turned a corner, knowing this way would lead him to a short cut that could cut off the other mid path.

@Onew/Jinki Right before the boy could escape while he had the chance, an annoying clinking sound came forth to his ears, giving him the massive irritation he hadn't had for the longest time ever. He groaned out loud, placing his hand out to catch the falling of coins that had caused his now full-potential headache. So the man had obtained magic which was a complete advantage in this situation. Well, the benefit of this is that he doesn't have to pay for souvenirs anymore that are under the cost of five dollars. Looking left and right to see if there was an alternate way, he shoved a couple coins in his pocket before dashing towards the left, which wasn't so much of a good choice since a fork was now in his view, and one of them was bound to lead him into a dead end. He went with his instincts and sprinted towards the right, relieved that he didn't see an unwanted grass wall in his way. However, he knew he couldn't outrun the other for Luhan could still hear the unattractive cackles of the other. Was this dude high or something?

He was laughing maniacally, finding this whole chase thing quite amusing. In fact, he was practically floating through the air so high was his giddy humour. Unfortunately, the other was quite right in guessing that he was a clumsy fool. Onew was too high up on giggle island to see the marbles in time. His feet (bare foot as always since he despised shoes) slipped and rolled over the marbles, giving them a jolt that had his limbs tangling. "Ahhhh!" he cried, arms flailing as he made a desperate attempt to catch his balance. Alas, he was really bad with body coordination and ended up ramming right into the hedge wall. It padded his landing and he didn't fall, instead he ended up making a large hole as he ran right through it. Branches and pines needles clung to him as he kept running, seeing his next prank victim up ahead. "So you wanna play like this?!" Onew asked, laughing loudly. With a snap of his fingers he had a cascade of coins raining down a foot in front of the boy. Hopefully it would dupe him long enough for him to pause and give the ringmaster the chance to see his face.
