A quick summary of Carnival Strings/Mark Schmidt 
He was an arrogant scholar who loved to travel, he overheard two older men talk about an abandoned amusement park and how it was supposedly haunted. Curious, he questioned the two men about that strange place. The older men were hesitant to tell the young man. But after a couple of minutes of dealing with Mark’s awful demeanor, they finally told him….
Sometime went by and Mark packed for the 5 hour journey and started walking. But by the time he got to the abandoned amusement park. The sky was turning dark and the rain started to pour. Upset and discouraged at being unable to explore for the evening, he looked for a place to stay and he did…. at the old abandoned circus. The smell was awful and had a scent of decay in the air, but he decided he’ll put up with it until morning. He looked around to find an odd sight. A ripped poster of a life sized puppet called “Ricky Raptor” and after looking around more. He found the puppet hanging on two poles. He wanted to examine it closer and he did. But only to be met with a loose sandbag hitting his head, killing him instantly.
But he woke up, seeing a corpse on the ground. He couldn’t tell who or why there was a dead body on the ground. He saw the circus and how everything around him was worn down and forgotten.
“What’s going on? Where is everyone?” He asked himself.
He didn’t even know his name anymore. The first words he saw was a sign the writes “Carnival” and assumed that was his name, he started to remember fond memories of the circus when it was alive.
But little did Carnival knew that his name wasn’t Carnival. That all the memories of the circus that flooded his mind were fake… and that lying corpse in front of Carnival was him. He was Mark Schmidt but somehow he’d forgotten his identity. His soul seemed to be trapped in the puppet without him even knowing… He completely forgotten who he was… now his soul possesses the puppet and wonders around the empty rooms of the circus.
"What is an alternative life path your OC might have gone down? How different would their life be if they'd made those decisions?" With baby girl Gappy!
Art is a passion of hers, she originally wanted to be a comic book artist as well as write music. She probably would have become famous, but obviously that didn't happen. But if she had gone down that route she probably wouldn't have ended up marrying Floretta, and Gappy loves her more than anything.
Gappy still draws and writes music, but more as a hobby. (Also enjoy this little drawing of her drawing)
Baxter, a cocky circus performer who’s obsessed with all things fire and deathly afraid of water! He prefers using the term “crime burlee” for his acts instead of “arson.”
return of oc "marmalade" who prior to running away to the circus was a tailor who simply hated making clothes for other people. they just want to make fun fits for themself...... perhaps an exception can be made for the captain...........
I absolutely LOVED drawing Caine’s expressions in this one. Whole lot of fun :)
Reminder that the AU this comic is based on is made by her majesty, @sm-baby, and I don’t have any creative control over it. I will be taking some severe creative liberties when the story reaches its peak, so be prepared for that :))))
(Also if you like this comic, it’d mean the world to me if you gave me a follow to stick around for when I make my own personal one. Thank you!)
His nickname for her is little scarab. (Aka little beetle. Because brown June bugs are my favorite bug) he giving her little head pats because that what I do with my love one out of pure boredom sometimes and love of course.
I’m not counting the antlers for height just head.
Honestly I’m just guessing how tall kinger is.
She a little anxious around him because this is after both of their sentience so she on guard. And she has eye bags because she basically a night owl and has a terrible sleep schedule like me!
Sorry these are really the only drawings I have of them
A bit of background, the two used to be a part of rival biker gangs. The little Pistols (Leo was a part of) and The S.M Posse (Mills was a part of, the S.M stood for Sick Minds) [Names might change]
The two used to REALLY hate each other (being rivals and all) but slowly began to fall in love. However their love had to be a secret from all the other gang members (again, being rivals and what not). Free, who's a member of The Little Pistols, knew about their love and honesty didn't care.
The two ended up faking their death, got new names (thoes new names being Leo and Mills)and joined Ruths carnival/circus making the two the newest members of the bunch.
During carnival hours, Leo is a clown like Molly, while Mills helps work at the game stands and / or rides. During circus hours, the two do motorcycle tricks.
