But his suspicion came true when he arrived at the dart game and the mime was gesturing for him to play it and....even threw an invisible dart?? Oh Merlin's Beard

Scratching the back of his head, Dorian knew that it was a festival and all but this was embarrassing for him... Why a mime out of all?! He could get a balloon from the Balloons Guy but a mime? What? Ugh whatever, he was here already and he might as well play the game. "How does it work? Do i just throw the darts?"

The fifteen year old noticed the mime first, who made her giggle as he mimicked the boy and acted as if he were playing the game. Or was he demonstrating? She wasn't quite sure, but she found him mildly amusing. And, oh! She did know that boy, or at least who he was. Dorian was in her house and in her year, though she wasn't sure they ever had a conversation.

Viviana stepped over to the balloon game on the other side of Dorian and turned her eyes up towards the oversized stuffed unicorns and hippogriffs. "Are you going to play?" she asked the boy, hoping that she could watch so she could figure out how to win something for herself.
How does it work?? Enzo the Mime gave the boy an e x a g g e r r a t e d and flourishy shrug. He wasn't technically in charge of the games here, but they were easy enough to figure out and he was having a fun interaction. And he was oh so entertaining for the kids!

Oh, and who was this little miss? Was she the young sir's girlfriend? Enzo folded his hands to the side of his chin and twirled around them in delight. Of course the boy must win a prize for her! He gestured towards the darts lying on the ledge of the booth - one! two! three! Three darts for the big prize.

And speaking of big prizes. Enzo got out his invisible "lasso", mimed circling it around his head, and "lassoed" the biggest stuffed unicorn at the top of the game's booth. He pulled, and pulled, and pulled.... but it was just so heavy!
