Popcorn in hand he sat with his children and wife as the next show came on, the Chimaera. It was interesting to watch all the different acts and how the beast moved around the center stage. He hoped it was well trained because the last thing he wanted was to have to use his wand today.

"Are you enjoying this?" He glanced around his little group.



Alejandro was on the edge of his seat and his eyes were huge, this was amazing. How did they keep the animals that calm and how did they train them so well? The boy ate his popcorn as he continued to watch not blinking at all. He even forgot his family was next to him for a few minutes until his dad spoke.

Once the tail and the creature went behind the curtain Alejandro jumped up and clapped as loud as he could before turning to his family.

"This is the best day ever!"
Regina was a bit on the grouchy side. Why did she have to sit here with her parents and her little brother? She was twelve years old for Circe's sake! A pre-teen, almost an actual teenager, and here she was being treated like a little kid. She should be sitting with her friends.

Oh that's right, she didn't have friends here anymore.

Truthfully, she was being very dramatic. But she hated the fact that she had to go to school in Brasília while her friends and relatives went to Hogwarts. And as a result she lost touch with pretty much everyone here while they were off making other friends. Of course, she did make friends at Castelobruxo.... but they were an entire continent away while she sat here with her family.

But she knew how to put on a good show, or at least tried. "Sí, Papá," she said sweetly though with hardly a smile as she leaned forward to look him. "It's a very good show." But ugh, why was Alejandro acting like an excitable baby? He was ten years old! She leaned back in her seat and politely applauded the chimera, even if she couldn't understand why the man needed to cast so many spells at the poor creature. Maybe the next show would be better.



Mariel was glad to have this little excursion with her family. Now that she stayed at home and did freelance work, it felt more apparent that Regina was gone while she was off at boarding school. Plus she felt like her daughter was starting to pull away from her. She supposed that was natural for her age, but she wondered if there was more to it. This would be some good and fun family bonding.

She smiled over at Alejandro as he stood and cheered for the chimera. This wasn't exactly her type of show - "taming" dangerous creatures with stunning spells - but she was so glad her darling boy was obviously having a good time.

"Perhaps some games after the show?" she suggested to her husband, though that was a question for all of them. But she was sure there was at least one more attraction here and she turned her attention towards the stage again.
