What Not to Do (Kallisti)

[Nox]

Nox felt Ori’s offense at being offered such a trivial task. He didn’t want to explain it all. And he was more than curious about what she might add. He just hoped it didn’t end up being something disruptive. Or an attack on the Atharim in attendance inadvertently. He had to hope she meant her help he had other things on his mind.

The stage dimmed, and the rings lowered. Nox took his place in the blue flames to brood as the floor moved to add the extra invisible security of the air mattress below. They trusted Nox to keep them safe, usually it was Juls doing that, but they wanted to always have a mundane back up. That was the safest thing in all their minds.

His biggest contribution to the finale was the changing of the seasons on the plants and decorations. As their skit moved on, it was clear Persephone’s coming and going made her mother sad and thus the changing of the seasons. It was a shitty story just so you could explain the changes through the seasons. Who the fuck sells their kid… Nox titled the skit “What Not to Do” for a reason.

He had a lot of time to think while he went through the motions. But he made himself appreciate the girls on the rings high above the ground, bending and twisting. Dangling from ribbons without real safety gear. The girls trusted the cushion below.
