Summary
Sirius would be the first to admit that he was prone to unnecessary dramatics, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that something of the person he had been was lifted away with the curtain call. One version of Sirius had entered the tent and a different one walked back out into the sun. It was, in a way, exactly what Walburga Black had hoped for; what an enjoyable irony to comfort himself with as he reluctantly left the stage behind.
In post-war England with society on the precipice of a major shift, Sirius Black reaches the tipping point within his own family. With nowhere else to go, he turns to a new friend and his family's traveling circus for an escape. Even with the fresh start he hoped for and an unexpected chance at love, eventually, Sirius must admit that one family can never be entirely left behind for another.

[ The Two of Cups ]
[ “You love him?”
Buried in golden curls, hot with fever and delirium, a smile like a sunrise dawns over his face, eyes sparkling with mirth, if not lucidity, he whispers like it is the most damnable secret, an irrefutable truth, “Speak his name over my grave and watch how he brings me back to life.” ]

[ The Moon ]
[ Darkness teases at the edge of her vision, calling for her to sleep, to give in to its pull. Alone, Rosemary lies in the growing pool of blood, too weak to hold her head up, looking to the tree above her, mesmerized by the way the light shines through the leaves, allowing the darkness to wrap her in its embrace. ]

Summary
He wasn't allowed to step foot here either, but still did it. He was extremely curious and stubborn when it came to wanting to see the so called freaks.
He was intrigued by them, even if he knew some were genuinely dangerous. They weren't just Siamese twins, people who missed an eye, or a woman that just grew facial hair.
No. Genuine monsters that weren't anything near human like.
His favorite? The multiple-armed sea monster. Well, he wasn't exactly a sea monster- but rumors went around that he used to be an infamous pirate captain that sailed through the seven seas. Until one day him and his crew got attacked by a huge kraken, or some shit. He miraculously survived, while his ship was long gone, and so as the rest on that ship. Only left with the side of his cheeks slit through. Days after, he started growing another pair of arms, and then two more.
Apparently, he was able to act like he had two arms, only to unfold his four other arms like wings.
Not just that.
He could also summon octopus arms from his back.
Or,
Seonghwa had always been fascinated by the idea freaks monsters existed in this world... Oh to see one in real life.
