The tent was lit with soft blue lights as thunder and rain pounded through the speakers A figure cloaked in a Trench coat standing on the top of a set of stairs on the stage. "And now Ladies and Gentlemen welcome back to the stage Mozenrath Schwarz!" the announcer called as the screaming throngs of fans were whipped into a fervour as the music began. Soft strings began to waft through the speaker as Mozenrath descended his voice coming through the emotions he felt given this time year coming through pretty intensely. His eyes and body language almost screaming that he was in mourning as he thought about the inspiration for this song. The lights flaring and giving the ambience even more intensity as his voice rang out through the tent as some tears fell down his cheeks. The audience was quiet some wee softly crying as many of them knew the story of him losing his wife to a fairly intense illness that could not be cured. As the music ended and he bowd the audience was clapping energetically happy to see he hadn't given up the music they so loved. [[Outfit and performance: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZACqNnO9-E ]]

Lucille watched the entire performance from the backstage.
Since the musical performance for that night had already been slated for another circus member, she and Manolo had been given the evening off. Manolo had taken the opportunity to get some extra rest. His attempts to learn how to control his powers often left him fatigued and he could use the sleep to try and make up for all the energy he had used over the past few weeks. Lucille, however, had been interested to see what kind of style and talent the other musically inclined performers possessed. So she had slipped backstage and spent the evening watching the Cirque Mystique's show.
Up until a young-looking man with pale skin and dark hair, none of the acts had consisted of any singing or music. However, one look at the man announced as "Mozenrath" told her that he was the musical number for that night. Something about his presence was extremely telling to the young woman.
Her guess had quickly turned out to be correct as the man launched into a hauntingly beautiful number that seemed to encompass a large collection of emotions. Loss, despair, longing, and above all of those other emotions was love. Yet it wasn't a love received or a true love but one that had been lost.
Her green eyes never wavered from the young man's frame, from his face as he sang and enthralled the audience in his melody. Even when he had finished and the audience broken into rabid applause, she didn't flinch at the noise or glance away. Her gaze continued to follow Mozenrath as he began to move off of the stage.

As the pop music artist, Shuichi was writing some music lyrics in his notebook, he thought of the man who cared for him for a long time, and that was Erei Yuki. After all, he not only made him smile but made him have inspiration to write and sing again, even thought that "zero talent" thing got to him every once in a while. All of a sudden, he did hear some sort of music coming from the main tent and looked to see on what kind of music there was to hear. He did hear some guy singing some beautiful song and thought that it could grab him some inspiration to come up with some music in in the future. He was gong towards the tent with a grin and was snapping his fingers to the beat as it was not only catchy but really nice to see this one night show. As he was nearing the tent, he started to have a memory of a time where did perform in front of a crowd once before his band broke up and his friend getting killed and it was indeed, a happy one. He was signing along with the lyrics softly to himself as he did not want to disturb the man from singing and was trying to get a front row seat so, he could at least see what the signer looked like. He then started to dance until he heard the man crying on stage and he realized what the song was about. It did sound like one of those songs that dealt with loss and despair but, it did sound beautiful indeed. He did feel tears coming into his eyes as it was a very heartbreaking song, but, at the same time, it was still beautiful to hear. He wished that he could write such beautiful lyrics like those and had to one day or after the performance, ask the guy on how he got inspiration to come up with such lyrics, even thought it was dealing with a loss of some sort.

Wiping the tears from his face as he came back stage the contrast of the white dress to the lighting. Blue eyes blinking seeming more expressive even after his teary rendition "I must look a mes..." he starts to say before the cries of 'Encore!' chuckling a bit shedding his fairly long trench coat that looked a bit too warm for him to wear this time of year. "apologies to cut this short but you know how it is..." he said with a playful wink before jetting back out to some more upbeat music. "I'm gonna leave you all on a good note so no more tears alright Rue wouldn't want that!" he said with a brilliant smile before beginning his song putting on a jacket and hate much more akin to the Ringmaster's. The movements and song being much more dance like as he smiles trying to work all the sadness out of his system. He was most definitely in his element performing like this and it showed with no stopping or pauses he moved with the music as he let the audience enjoy themselves.

Lucille didn't notice the other man who was also listening to the performance, her green eyes were focused only on the stage and the figure of Mozenrath.
Perhaps he realized it wouldn't be the best for the show if he left on such a sad number and announced he would be singing a new, happier piece. In only a moment the second song began to fill the tent and the mood swung from deep sorrow and longing to one of a much happier, more joyful beat. However, Lucille felt that the first performance had been the most telling of the young man, had revealed more of him and his feelings then the current song he sang.
When it too had finished, she clapped softly along with the audience but still continued to watch Mozenrath. She couldn't help but wonder.....

The pink haired young man was looking up at the artist, who was performing, he felt as though some tears started to form in his eyes, thinking it was not only well done, but, also, very inspirational; perhaps he could write something about that regarding him missing Yuki, but then again, he had no idea on the last time they both contacted one another, but, he felt as though writing a song for him and sending it to him on an email or a letter, would not be as powerful as singing it to him in person, if Yuki ever came to the cirque. Then, the music changed to something more upbeat, and Shuichi felt as though his body was somewhat dancing to it, and thought that this was better than listening to that sad song, but, again, sad music was not bad to listen to, even though it was more based on a past situation, as he was sure that it was based on a loss of some sort, but, he did enjoy listening to both tunes regardless. He then saw that a young woman was around the other area of the tent, listening to it as well, and wondered if she was a song artist herself, but, didn't want to ask anything. He gazed upon the performer singing and started to blush, a tiny bit, thinking that he was pretty handsome, but, didn't want to shout out anything that would make him feel embarrassed, so, instead, he continued to listen to the singer, enjoying the music.

Mozenrath walked back though looking fairly exhausted "You leave out performing for six months and they lose their dang minds it seems... My apologies miss I am Mozenrath Schwarz." he says offering her a gentlemanly bow. His face showed his middle eastern ancestry despite his pale skin he couldn't be older then twenty those his eyes seemed older whether due to experience or otherwise.

The final number for the pale, young man came to an end and he bowed before heading towards the backstage where Lucille stood. As he entered the space, she assumed that he would merely walk by her. After all, they didn't know each other and he might be rather tired after his performance. She had also noticed another figure, this one a pink-haired young man, standing a short distance away from her and thought that perhaps he knew the performer and was waiting there to greet him.
However, her first assumption turned out to be wrong as the pale performer suddenly turned towards her upon entering the backstage and offered a greeting and his name. She blinked slowly with her lovely green eyes for a moment, somewhat surprised by this sudden encounter, before offering a small curtsy in response.
"I'm Lucille Dubois. Excuse me, I hope I didn't surprise you, lurking in the entrance and all."
She gave a small smile and laugh, hoping that it might cover for her small lapse in etiquette.
"I was just listening to your performance and thought that perhaps you didn't want to be bothered or were looking for someone else."
Her large eyes shot briefly to the other man for an instant before returning to Mozenrath's face. Any trace of sorrow or anguish had disappeared from his features, and yet part of her felt that it was still there and merely hidden.

As soon as the man finished the music, Shuichi thought that this was the perfect opportunity to meet him, and thought that he did look pretty handsome and although that he did look pretty older than his age, but, again, thought he looked pretty hot from distance. The nineteen year singer was looking at him and felt his heart pump as though he felt excited to meet him right now. He then saw that a young lady in the distance was meeting him already and he did feel his crunching as though he was a bit jealous that she was able to meet him first, and not him right away, but, didn't want to cause a fight. So, he kept the jealousy to himself and waited for her to finish greeting him. He saw that the young lady was meeting him backstage and he sighed with some tears coming out of his eyes. "Damn it, there goes my chance.." He thought to himself and sighed once again. He then saw him bowing toward her and assumed that he had a lot of fans greeting him in the past when he performed for the cirque, since he had a majestic voice and the music that he performed was pretty original and really nice to hear. He then saw that the young lady was looking at him, and Shuchi backed off for a minute, and had a small sigh coming out of his mouth. "Get a grip.." He said to himself as he was walking down to the backstage area where the young woman and the singer was talking, and took a breath. He then grabbed the singer's hand and looked at him straight in the eyes. "The famous Mozenrath, you were great out there. Your music, I have to say, was inspirational, and it made me cry, just please tell me your secrets. I am a singer too, a pop singer, and I did perform with a band before coming here, and lately, I haven't come up with any song lyrics. Maybe you could teach me?" He asked, feeling excitement coming from his eyes. He then saw that the lady was talking to him before, and felt a bit embarrassed that he did cause a bit of rudeness since she was talking to him first, but, he wanted to meet him and thought of this as taking the risk by doing an act like this just so he could meet him in person, and hopefully, learn from him.
