Hello everybody, Welcome to the circus! A big round of applause for Mike and Pocus! I've been itching to work on personal comics ever since I stopped drawing my long-form webcomic "going home" in late august last year due to wrist injuries and burnout. So, I decided to start Welcome To The Circus, a project I first conceptualized for an assignment about a year ago. These comics will be for fun, so don't expect a consistent upload schedule, I'll post strips whenever I have an idea and feel like drawing it out. I hope you will enjoy them non the less. I can't wait to explore these characters with you guys!

Wally Darling is a character within the Welcome Home project. This character is mildly canon-divergent as he is also loosely based on an alter of the same source
Tumblr media
Wally is, on the surface, a very monotoned curious puppet. He is intent on learning the very most with the help of his neighbors. Easily impressionable, and easily distracted, Wally is observant and aware of nearly everything around him.
Peeling behind his soft felt skin, however, Wally is intent on understanding. The world is a pattern he just can't sort out, an overwhelming muddy mess of colors that he somehow just can't piece just right in his head. Observations can help him learn more and more, though.
Wally, at his seedy core, wants to protect and understand his most cherished friends.
Tumblr media
Wally's Roleplays may consist and have themes of Staring/Intense Eye Contact, Unreality, Dissociation, Amnesia, Religious Themes, Psychological Horror, General Horror, Controlling Relationships, and Violence.
Please let us know if you would like any of these things tagged, or something unlisted or untagged to be added.

Hello.
My name is Vox.
In this script,
I will be teaching you
About hypnosis
While also hypnotizing you
Everyone is hypnotizable
Even you
However,
Some people have trouble 
Going into hypnosis
And this is normal.
For this script
Do not worry
Weather you are really
Being hypnotized
Or not. 
Just relax
Focus on my words
Enjoy how they make you feel
Keep in mind
That hypnosis
Is not mind control
I cannot make you do anything
That you do not want to do
And you can wake up
At any time you need.
You may become
More suggestible
During hypnosis
And following the suggestions
Of a hypnotist
Feels very good.
So you may find yourself
Wanting to do
What is asked
Especially since
You and the hypnotist
Share a goal
And are working together
To hypnotize you.
But still
Your mind is your own.
While there are many theories
About hypnosis
Most agree that
At its core
Is a heightened state of focus.
Like right now
You may find yourself
Especially focused
On my words.
The sight of my words
Appearing on your screen
In short
Easy to read
Chunks
That make my words
Sink
Deep
Inside your mind.
It is normal to have thoughts
Of other things
During hypnosis.
If your mind wanders,
All you have to do
Is shift your attention
Back to the hypnosis
To the words
You are reading
And you will go
Deep into trance.
It can be helpful
To have a metaphor
To quiet thoughts.
For example,
Imagine your thoughts
Are written on a white board
Just as soon as they are written
They are erased again
Until your mind is clean
And blank
New things may be written,
But just as quickly
They are erased again.
Until your mind is clean
And blank
Of everything
But my words.
The typical hypnosis structure
Is made up of
Three parts.
Induction
Suggestion
And waking up.
The purpose of induction is
To bring you into trance. 
There are many ways
To do an induction
Explaining how
Hypnosis works
Is a common induction.
But anything can work
To bring you into trance
If it is used to draw your focus.
Trance is a normal state of being
You may notice it
In your daily life
When you become very focused
And lose track
Of things around you
All your thoughts
All your senses
Focused
On one thing. 
Once you are in trance
You may find yourself
Highly receptive
To suggestions. 
Suggestions
That deepen trance
Are used during induction
Such as
The suggestion
That you are very focused
That you are very relaxed.
But once you are
Deep into trance
Like you are now
Almost any suggestion
Can be made
And it would feel
So good
And so easy
To follow along.
I could ask you to do
Almost anything
And naturally
You would find yourself
Wanting to do as I ask
Wanting to think
What I tell you to think
And it would feel
So good.
However,
Since this is an introduction
I won’t spend too much time here
And instead
I’ll give you the chance
To think
About what kind of suggestions
You might like to experience
Next time you are in a trance.
And now,
It is time to
Gently wake you up.
Typically, a hypnotist
Should help you to gently return
To your normal state of mind
Or to what I like to call
“The waking world.”
Some people wake up quickly,
While others need more time
And that’s okay.
No matter how you experience it,
It is alright,
And just how you are meant to experience it.
Slowly, you will become more aware
Of the room around you.
What objects you can see.
What sounds you can hear around you.
You will feel normal thought returning
You may think about what you did earlier
What you may do later
Still feeling relaxed
Just gently allowing thought to return
And allowing your focus to shift to other things.
Gently move your limbs,
Stretch a bit when you feel ready.
And take as much time as you need to wake up.
You can always return here when you need to
But for now, you feel ready to continue on with your day.

WHOOOIMBOUTTAMAKEANAMEFORMYSELFHERE
✨Hello!✨
My name is Jay. I love Star Trek, Good Omens, BBC Merlin, and basically anything sci-fi or fantasy.
My favorite book changes by the day, but right now it's Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut. My favorite TV show is a hard one, but I'll whack down Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. My favorite movie is Avatar. (The blue people one, NOT that wretched excuse of a ATLA film). My favorite fictional character is Marvel's Gambit.
I'm a semi-active fanfic writer (currently writing a Marvel Bucky x OC reader series!) and am also working on various original stories! The current one is I Won't Hurt You, a fluffy but surprisingly emotional story about a kitten who transformed into a catgirl in a laboratory experiment and gets adopted/abducted by a powerful bounty hunter with a soft heart. Check it out on AO3! Tags for it are "I Won't Hurt You" and "IWHY".
I'm bisexual and genderfluid - any pronouns work.
I'm an amateur archer who placed third in my division for the state-wide championship and also a budding clay worker. I love off-roading in my Jeep Wrangler and pretending to be a mermaid in any body of water I come across.
I'm double-majoring in Aerospace Engineering and Spanish Linguistics.

Adventures of Wally & The Gang (plus their Caretaker)
Adventures of Wally and the Gang (plus their Caretaker)
Associates Meeting (one-shot)
Warnings: None. Just fluff and funsies honestly; silly antics some of the cast members get themselves into. By no means are my interpretations in relation to Clown’s work, and therefore, not canonically based. Consider this an introduction to the whimsical one-shots to come with our dear Caretaker and the gang.
Word Count: 1,970
Brief Description: Set in the modern world, the Welcome Home cast is alive and aware, living alongside humans. And you have been contracted to be their Caretaker. [you are referred to by the puppets as “Caretaker” or “Care” for short.]
Dedication: @nonomives @kandavers
 *blows kiss* Wanted to give you both this as my debut. 
[I am open to constructive criticism, feedback and ideas! Please inbox me if you have any! I’m a bit rusty with writing, so I appreciate any insight]
In a world much like the Muppets, puppets co-exist with humans. Although the colorful ensemble of characters from the beloved children’s TV show portrays themselves as sweet, educational, fun-loving personas-- when they aren’t on the air, they happen to get themselves into quite a lot of mischief. And you, the lucky individual that you are, have been contracted as their Caretaker to ensure these chaotic puppet actors stay on schedule and don’t put themselves in situations that could cause bad publicity.
You walked off set after speaking to one of the producers as the show had wrapped up earlier than expected. This made it easier to schedule the upcoming appointments you had meticulously organized around the otherwise busy puppet’s schedules. With clipboard in hand, you made your way over to the break area, where most of the cast members were chatting with stagehands, makeup artists, or lounging in their deck chairs.
“All right everyone!” You clapped your hands together to garner the attention of the cast, all eyes turning to you except for Barnaby standing over the spread table, hungrily grabbing at the box of doughnuts one of the interns had placed out. You deadpan at him before shouting his name, earning an audible hmph?! as the blue mass turned to look at you, a sprinkled doughnut hanging from his mouth, with two others in hand.
“Okaaaay—now that I have everyone’s attention, we have an early flight to catch tomorrow for our meeting with our studio associates, which will take place later in the afternoon once we’ve arrived.” You scan the break area to ensure they’re still listening, amused by Julie and Sally as they respond with shared squeals, already chatting about plans to sightsee the area and meet their adoring fans. Their bubbly response caused you to grin momentarily, before turning serious.
“That means! You all need to be awake, packed, and ready to go at 6 A.M. sharp.” You say sternly, now earning loud groans from a few of the puppets.
“Okay, okay.” You waved your hand dismissively to the choir of complaints. You didn’t know why they were complaining, considering they usually wake up this early in the morning to start the show. Rolling your eyes, you let out a breath, mentally preparing for whatever shenanigans these puppets will pull on you later. “You guys have the rest of the day to relax since it’s only 2 P.M. right now. Just remember, we need to stick to the schedule. I don’t want to have to explain myself to the Manager if things derail.”
With a resounding “All right” from everyone, you went your parting ways and continued to work out the schedule’s details. “Also! Julie, you better pack light! We are only staying for two days, so don’t bring your whole wardrobe with you—again…” You called after her, ignoring her refusal to do so.
[Next Day: 5:41 A.M.]
You grabbed your duffle bag, slinging it over your shoulder before grabbing the briefcase on your way out of your small apartment. Before descending the stairs of the apartment building, you turn back in to grab your coffee, yawning in the process. “Ugh, gonna be a long day.” You murmur to yourself, the lingering drowsiness from slumber not yet leaving your body. You check the time on your phone as you take a gentle sip. You only lived a 7-minute walk away from the set, which you were grateful for since (1) You didn’t own a car and (2) The Studio provided you with lodging once you agreed to be the cast’s Caretaker. The pay was all right considering the added bonuses of what the Studio provided for you, although, it’s probably due in part to the various applicants that had been hired and then immediately quit due to their lack of ability to actually wrangle the cast from committing any sort of war crimes. (Guess the Studio needed to give some sort of incentive for someone to fill the role). Taking on the task was daunting at first since you quickly learned how eager the members were to push boundaries. You didn’t necessarily blame them for being curious since there was still so much of the world they wanted to learn about. Of course, this made your job more difficult to handle at times.
[5:53 A.M.]
You walked through the studio’s hallways, quietly greeting good mornings to other studio employees as you passed. The meeting location for everyone was in room 2A, usually reserved for auditions, but opened for you to ensure everyone came on time. Arriving at the room, you saw that most of the members had already arrived. Poppy, sitting comically large on one of the chairs and leaning against the wall as she continued to sleep. Barnaby and Wally both lazily tapping on their phones; Frank and Eddie who were both reading; Howdy who had just strolled in with a loud yawn, and…. Julie and Sally? Who weren’t even here yet. Of course, knowing them Sally would come in ‘dramatically’ late, as per usual, and Julie would usually stroll along. You greet those who were already there good morning, earning a few mumbled good mornings in return and a quiet snore from Poppy. You leaned against the wall next to the entrance, taking out your schedule:
6 A.M. - morning roll call
6:10 A.M.- arrive to cars
6:30 A.M. - board private jet
8:30 A.M. (projected arrival time)
9:00 A.M. – early check-in
-
-
-
1:30 P.M. – production meeting
-
-
-
5:30 P.M. – dinner reservation (for self)
-
-
You nod, everything was still on track for the most part… Sally would soon come in beaming and entered the room with a loud, sing-songy “I’m here!”, followed by the same response as the heaving Julie dragged an absurdly stuffed suitcase in tow. The sudden intrusion caused Poppy to jolt awake, everyone else looking over as the pair came in. You glanced at the time, 6:12 A.M.
“You’re late…and I told you to pack light--” You comment, shaking your head gently as the two tried to begin explaining. Raising a hand to stop them, you turned to everyone with a small smile, went over the plans for travel, and ushered them all to the awaiting cars outside.
[8:32 A.M. Landing]
As the jet landed, everyone deplaned and entered the cars that would transport them to the hotel. Once you have all arrived at the hotel, you check everyone in, soon giving them each their own room keys on the same floor. You gave them all a nod of approval as you all entered the elevator and went up to the 14th floor. You all agreed to meet in the lobby after freshening up to discuss any further plans. As you waved to them, you entered your room and took in the welcoming atmosphere. Plush pillows, clean sheets, a stocked mini fridge, a desk, a great window view, and a bathroom full of high-quality amenities you would surely take back home. (No one’s going to miss a few small bottles of shampoo and conditioner anyway). You place your briefcase on the desk, plop the duffle bag on the chair, and throw yourself onto the inviting bed. With arms spread wide, you inhale sharply as you stretch, sighing in contentment for a moment. The temporary silence gave your much-needed overworked mind some peace, before going into the bathroom to get ready. You would soon greet everyone with a much chippier attitude as they had all been waiting for you in the lobby area. You took notice as more guests began to enter the hotel, some with young children excitedly pointing out Wally and the others, pleading to meet them as their tired parents tried to calm their resounding squeaks. It was times like these when you got a break, witnessing the excitement and wonder of fans felt endearing. You were with a group of celebrities after all. Trying to keep a low profile was, unfortunately, not an option in your field of work.
“So, what do you guys want to do?” Eddie inquires. Everyone began throwing out ideas, Julie insisting they go shopping; Frank, who commented on a museum exhibit; Sally wanting to check out the old (presumably haunted) theaters; Howdy and Poppy bouncing ideas about taking a tour downtown; and Barnaby mentioning an all-you-can-eat buffet. The overwhelming chatter droned out your thoughts as everyone turned to you, arguing that they “Should do this!”, “No, this—“, “Care, I want to—“. You tried hushing everyone as their voices became increasingly loud in volume, garnering more attention from the hotel guests as their rambunctious natures were disturbing the ease of the lobby.
“Hold on, hold on. We only really have three more hours before we go to the meeting, so we might not be able to do everything today—” You try to console everyone, your response not satisfying the puppets as they began bickering amongst themselves. You heard a few complaints that you were being too ‘strict’, too ‘uptight’, ‘just relax a bit will ya, we’ve got time’. You huff, knowing you needed them all together since they’d do ‘who knows what’ when apart from you. Maybe you should just ask to be promoted from Caretaker to Glorified Babysitter at this point, the title is more suitable. You attempted to hush them again, only to be met with more insistence that they do “this idea, or that”. You could barely put a word in as your eyes slowly fell on Wally, who in his usual laid-back manner, said nothing. Simply observing the conversations and locking eyes on you.
You could tell by his demeanor, mischievous grin on his face, he was brewing up a plan. Your eyes narrow, squinting at him as you both engaged in a stare-down. “Don’t—” You emphasized, everyone else taking notice and silently watching. “Wally. Do not—”
“Scatter.”
“I said-- Ah!--?!” Before you could protest, you were encased in oversized blue arms, Barnaby coming up to give you a hug from behind, his chuckles booming loudly in your ears. He picked you up slightly, your legs kicking as you tried yelling for them all to “Get back here!”. Both Sally and Julie bolted for the entrance, waving hello and goodbye to those they passed by; Howdy and Poppy scuttled away, continuing to chat; Frank and Eddie looked at each other before heading to the museum, as Wally sneakily exited stage left. You went limp in Barnaby’s arms, cheeks red with frustration as you slowly descended back onto your feet. He chuckled, patting your shoulder (insult to injury).
“You know kid, you should just take it easy. We finally have some downtime, just let ‘em go and have some fun. Same with you, see you in a bit.” He chimed, walking off to the hotel’s restaurant.
You stood there in defeat, running your hands up and down your face before pinching the bridge of your nose. As expected, it was gonna be a long day indeed.
[2:03 P.M. Associates Meeting]
“Shouldn’t they have been here already?”
“Yeah, I tried calling Care, but they hadn’t respo—”
You burst into the meeting room, hair disheveled, breathing heavy with Wally and Julie tucked under your arms while the rest of the members stood behind you with smiles and greetings. You stomped in, some of the associates just staring as you plopped the two in their seats as the others strolled in before settling down themselves. You said nothing, cheeks hot and nostrils flared before clearing your throat and smoothing your hair. You move off to the side, taking refuge in the seat placed against the wall. You finally slump, head tilted back and resting on the wall as the meeting began.
Yeah, you needed a promotion… and a raise.
