[stylistic_disloyalty]

Who: Lucifer, Xanxus, Yuffie, Ace --and anyone crazy enough to join the crowd.
What: It's time for the Carnies to find another replacement. How can they top how they stole Poe?
When: Backdated to night, March 9th
Where: Starting in Vista, heading out of town
Warnings: Carnies.

A tweet goes out from Luci's account, it gets retweeted and passed around-- "Find a set of wheels and join the Carnival at the bus depot off 6th at 10PM. Time to ride. #newblood"

At the appointed time and place, there's a flatbed truck idling on the asphalt, outfitted with speakers and a bolted down drum set. A couple of tech people are doing final checks, testing some winches, et cetera. It could be an elaborate stage set up, but given the truck is running, it doesn't take long for fans to panic that they might not have enough gas to stay for the whole show...

"Ow-ow-ouch," Luci laughs and pushes Shin's shoulder gently, teasingly. "First time I've been 'too' anything for someone."

Shin laughs, "Well, there always has to be a first time, right?" He smiles at her smoothly, "but I could possibly be swayed."

"Sure, but nobody says no to this," she says, gesturing to all of her. Luci, in her mind, is talented and hot. Who would say she's too young? Or worse, old.

"But I guess you're technically supposed to be one of my label rivals, so that's probably how this is supposed to go. Right? I'm too something for you and I should sway you...?"

Shin smiles, "That's what Lucifer does, right?" Well, if he wasn't flirting before, he is now.

"Tempt people into damnation?" She reaches to lightly brush a finger under Shin's chin. "Every second I can, darling."

Shin raises his chin just a bit with her fingers, letting an easy smile spread across his lips. "Damnation can't be so bad if you're going to lead me there," he gently teases as he shifts his stance to come off as more open and more interested. He falls into a seductive look that must make his fans cream themselves where they stand. It's almost like he's been trained.

And for a moment, Luci does look swayed, but then someone revs their motorcycle behind her and it brings her back to what she's doing there. Luci grins and pats his cheek.

"Bad news-- I'm afraid a lot of them say that, love. Time for me to go."

"Worst thing to do is keep a star from the limelight," Shin jokes. "You can lead me to hell some other time." He blows her a kiss before turning to leave.
