Well- Cam decided assumed he was. It was impossible to tell when he always wore that mask. The ringmaster smiled politely anyway. "Cameron. Would you like to take a seat?" It was phrased like a question but with the way the ringmaster was it was clearly a command. Which Cam followed through on. "I think that I'm getting closer with the memory potion." "That's not what I called you here to discuss. I think you know that." The ringmaster's gloved hands made a deck of cards appear and reappear seemingly effortlessly. Before Cam would've wondered how the trick was done. Now he knew.... It was just another one of the ringmaster's flashy tricks to draw you in and ensnare you in his trap. To get you where he wanted you. And by the time you realised this it was too late... "How are the dreams...?" Cam flinched. He h:ted remembering them. "They're... The same." W0rse. They got w0rse with every passing day. Tangled vines of darkness, slowly choking him. Consuming him. Extinguishing the light he had once held within him. "If you want them to go away..." "I'm good. What did you want from me?" "Can't I just check-" "What do you want?" "I need you to get Pyro and Abolish to visit my friend. M. Chesire..." "Not my-" "Remember your place Cam..." The strings tightened and he bowed his head. "Okay." "Okay what?" "Yes, Sir. I'll get to it right away." The Ringmaster smiled. "Don't forget your place, Cameron." "... I won't." He got up and left.
