## The 1970s: Circus Craze

Emerald and Imogen were working in a circus in Ludlow, Maine, as Circus freaks. The twins keep to themselves in their trailer unless they have to perform. They usually just watch the animal trainers or read in their trailer.

The twins don't have a definitive act, usually just sitting in their tent while people take photos.

Jolene and Alohi are the only people they talk to in and out of performing. Emerald often gossips to Imogen about the others, but Imogen is never actually listening.

## Relationships

* **Imogen Moloughney:** Emerald and Imogen are extremely close (Figuratively and Literally). Even after retiring from the circus, they are just as close to each other.
* **Calliope Ezgi:** The twins aren't super close with Calliope, but still respect her. The twins think she's cool because of her mutation. When Calliope disappears, the twins and the other circus freaks are very worried. When it comes out that Calliope is dead, they attend her funeral.
* **Jolene Marshall:** Jolene is the only motherly figure the twins have in their lives. She is the only person who genuinely cares about the twin's well-being.
* **Alohi Makoa:** Similar to Calliope, the twins think Alohi is cool because of her mutation. They see her as an older sister.
* **The Animal Trainers:** The twins like watching the animal trainers in between shows and when the circus closes.
* **Zephaniah:** The twins don't see Zephaniah as a parental figure, more as an employer. But, they do get along with him even after retiring.
