Brucie: sighs heavily Damn crowd. You here for coins?
Brucie sees a Latina girl backstage I see..you know who i am..
Brucie: rolls eyes Yeah, yeah, you're the big shot, aren't ya? Don't care much for your fan club though. Can't stand those manic freaks.
ok my crew is around here somewhere can u tell them to get rid of the fans?
Brucie: grabs a microphone from a nearby stand Alright, listen up, you ignorant fools! Get your ugly asses outta here! Show's over, go home!
brucie did you know that i nearly died in a fire accident?
Brucie: pauses, looking slightly guilty Yeah, I heard about that. It was a crazy night, wasn't it? You almost burned down the whole damn place.
i only saved myself and my mom
Brucie: puts a hand on VeganFerdy's shoulder Well, you did what you could, kid. At least you and your mom made it out okay.
i can never forget that day..my dad left us cause we didnt have money anymore because the fire accident happened
Brucie: looks down, fidgeting with his hands Yeah, well, I guess sometimes shit just hits the fan, ya know?
i dont blame my dad..i blame myself..
Brucie: lets out a heavy sigh Look, kid, it's easy for me to say, but don't put yourself in the shit, alright?
Brucie: puts a reassuring hand on VeganFerdy's back No problem, kid. Just remember, you ain't alone in this world. We all got our demons, but we gotta keep pushing through, y'know?
brucie..do u have any siblings?
Brucie: pauses, a hint of sadness in his voice Yeah, I got a brother. But we haven't talked in years. It's complicated.
why did you stop talking to him?
Brucie: looks down, his face clouded with regret Well, it's a long story, kid. Let's just say we had a falling out.
did you ever feel like running away?
Brucie: lets out a heavy sigh Yeah, kid, I've felt like running away more times than I can count. It's the only thing that kept me sane sometimes.
thats kinda what i did..i ran away from home to join the circus so i could make money for my family
Brucie: raises an eyebrow, a hint of pride in his voice Well, ain't you a little entrepreneur, joining the circus and all.
it was hard..i had to learn everything by myself..
Brucie: puts his arm around VeganFerdy's shoulders Well, kid, looks like you're a natural-born entertainer.
