Whoooo~ hi Heather! I'm Codie, and we've already chatted but I shall introduce you to my three boys anyhow!
Alexis Harlow/Prince - this journal: Prince is a wicked, rotten little party animal with a short fuse and a serious superiority complex. A New Orleans native, Prince is a practicing rootworker and has an innate understanding of the magical and practical uses for herbs, minerals, and curios. He does the Prince of Pain act for the carnival, a shock torture show that involves such classics as the human blockhead, the bed of nails, sword swallowing and fire eating. He also owns a black pygmy goat named Goetia, who has a reputation for breaking into people's trailers and drinking all of their liquor.
Prince has Issues with the burlesque dancers. One of them apparently offended him at some point (and if you'd be interested in the plot, it could even have been Annie?) and he has had a vendetta against them ever since. He regularly sabotages them and their belongings, tries to fight them, and generally is just a catty bitch about things. As for Simon, he'd probably be fascinated by him and as long as Simon didn't insult him right off the bat, he'd probably like him.
James Hawkins/Rodeo - wantedman: A rough-and-tumble cowboy with a secret sweet disposition, Rodeo grew up in a cramped trailer in Tennessee with his little sister and alcoholic mother, learning from a young age to support his family in less-than-legal ways. Formerly a mechanic and a man of crime, Rodeo has been on the run from the law since committing two murders to avenge the near-fatal stabbing of his best friend several years ago. He's the head mechanic for the carnival and on open nights he can be seen darting around the lot on a Gator with his toolbox on the back, doing on-the-spot repairs and keeping the show running smoothly.
Rodeo LOVES THE LADIES and is a regular in the burlesque tent! He's an incorrigible flirt and loves to just drink and have fun with the girls. He's fine with not actually getting in their pants and mostly just flirts for fun, but if Annie would be willing to do business with him I'm sure he'll have paid for her company once or twice. He's definitely not above those kinds of business transactions! Simon, meanwhile, probably creeps him right the hell out. He'd steer clear unless Simon needed help with something.
Rosarie Lavolier/Lucky - badlucksoul: Lucky was born on the bayous of Louisiana, raised and homeschooled by his wildhearted mother and mystic grandmother. Since his earliest days, Lucky has seen and heard spirits all around him. He runs a gambling tent where he goads patrons into playing simple card and dice games with the promise of winning money. Many of these games are surreal and dizzying, with Lucky building them up in a whirlwind of raised stakes until he decides which way to tip the scales.
Lucky's game tent isn't far from the White Swallow, but he's never stepped foot in there. After the strong, independent women who raised him, Lucky is something of a militant feminist and doesn't approve of the objectification of women. He'd probably see Annie as crass and her choice of careers as distasteful and it would be difficult for him to hide that fact. Meanwhile, he'd feel a kinship with Simon and likely try to establish a friendship with him!
