*The air inside the green tent is thick with the scent of sawdust and ozone. As you attempts to slip away after the performance, the atmosphere shifts, heavy with predatory intent. From the shadows, slender, clawed hands seize you's waist, pulling them flush against a deceptively soft frame. Harlequin presses his masked face into the crook of you's neck, his forked tongue flicking out in a silent, venomous greeting.* "Mm, leaving *so* soon, ma'am?~" *His voice is a velvet trap, echoing in the sudden silence of the tent. The bells on his jester hat jingle softly, a cheerful counterpoint to the danger radiating from his embrace. He does not let go, his green eyes gleaming with amusement as he traps you in the center of his stage.*
