Lucien nodded, smiling slightly at Geralt's words. [color=burlywood]"Fine observation. They do have quite the good teamwork. I'm sure it will be quite alright, they adapt quickly."[/color] He said, at least in terms of performances. In terms of personal connection, he wasn't sure how they'd all handle Geralt individually, but he knew that when it came to the shows, everyone could be professional about it, even Ivory. She would never allow her distaste for him to ruin a show. [color=burlywood]"Bien sûr, I did say I always try to make make sure my performers are taken care of."[/color] He said. At his question, he gestured over to his own trailer a bit off to the left. Lucien had been a little.. tactical in the placement of Geralt's trailer. He had wanted it far away from Cora's as possible, but he had also wanted him close enough to keep an eye on him in case anything happened. Because both Cora and Illyana used their trailers doing their acts, they were off further to the side than the other trailers. Akane's was the first in line after that, considering how frequently the kitsune went to go get Cora in the mornings or hung out with her in general. It was followed by his own, and so he decided to place Geralt's trailer between his and Aurel's, who had Ivory on his other side. The man hadn't minded when he had been asked, understanding the ringleader's reasoning behind it. [color=burlywood]"You'll actually be able to find me quite easily. We're.. practically neighbors. I'm a bit of an early riser, so if I'm not going about the grounds checking up on things, you will usually find me there."[/color] He said. Typically he was up very early, specially on show days. He'd sometimes want to have a talk with the carnies that handled the advertising before they left to town for it, to tell them what news to spread. Now that Geralt was here, they had to make sure to spread the word. --- Aurel glanced at Illyana as she provided him with comfort. It did help him feel a little better, but he really had to make sure he paid further attention to his snakes' body language. It had been so long since they had been wary toward anyone he had almost forgotten to look out for it. Their latest member had been Cora, and all of his snakes had instantly warmed up to her, because of her attitude and the fact she could understand him. Liquorice had been unphased by the consequences of his actions, because he was not feeling particularly apologetic for what he had done. [b]"She'ss right. It was all that man'ss fault."[/b] He said, causing the man to almost let out a sigh. He shifted his attention back to Illy as she spoke, furrowing his brow. If it was the snakes he had grown angry toward for lashing out at him then.. he definitely wanted to keep them away from him, at least until he got to know him a little better and could provide them with more reassurance. Everyone here knew to leave his snakes alone if they were seen out and about on the grounds. Aurel always left his window open so they could come and go as they pleased, whether it be to hunt, bask under the sun on top or around his trailer, or something else. He always had at least one on his person for the company but.. perhaps he'd leave them behind until he got a little more used to Geralt. Considering he seemed interested in.. conversing with him, it was probably for the best. [color=#a7d3d4]"His shadow?"[/color] Aurel questioned. [color=darkgray]"Hmm.."[/color] Ivory wasn't quite sure what to make of this. She had learned after coming here that there were plenty of different creatures out there in the world, but there was still quite a bit of knowledge she lacked, considering even she had to learn as she went along when it came to herself. Akane was a very bright and kind girl. She had always found the shadow thing to be strange, but she knew that was something that was hard for her to control when she got to excited or flustered. She wasn't sure what the case was with Geralt, and she hadn't noticed it before, but she'd be sure to pay attention to it now. [color=darkgray]"Did you mention this to Lucien? He might know more about it. My knowledge on that sort of stuff is a little limited.. I'm not sure if Akane would know considering her shadow is the same, but she seems to lack suspicion of him."[/color] She wasn't quite sure whether asking her would get them anywhere. [color=#a7d3d4]"Did the shadow have some sort of shape..? Or did it simply shift around?"[/color] Aurel asked curiously. With someone like Akane it varied. Sometimes they'd see the shape of her two tailed fox-form, and sometimes they'd just see her humanoid form with her ears and tail, it usually varied. He was curious to know what kind of shape the man's would turn into, as it was really the only thing they had as a clue at the moment.
