Mark did not know how to feel about Joker... benign motivation and good manners aside the guy was way too perfect to cast as a villain, a natural you might say.<br/>Now obviously Mark knew his way around assuming a persona and acting on it, but he liked to imagine he had the good sense to keep that in front of the camera.<br/>Joker meanwhile seemed to revel in keeping the Act going, either out of determination towards his craft, hardly the first to do that, or because he genuinely disliked the person behind the mask. It gave him the chills, being what could be called the dark side of acting.<br/><br/>He was brought out of that musing when Popplio returned to his new favourite place in his hood and pointed him to Kiki and Blissy making him understand he should come along too.<br/>Now technically from what he heard she had only invited his two companions, but Popplio wasn't having any of that and would clap him on the head if he refused.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(184, 49, 47)">"we'd be happy to, you're much better company than the crowd around the stage, I hope it's fine that Mark joins us too, Popplio will drag him over anyways."</span><br/>Litten meanwhile had taken to slink around her legs affectionately, something about her seemed to put the temperamentful Cat at ease, or he was just trying to make her two actual partners jealous.
