Jaceth swallowed a few butterflies as he and Asirra walked up onto the stage. He'd put some thought into his routine, as well as asking advice from Orb during their less active moments, and decided that his lack of acting skill and tendency to be ludicrously flamboyant suited a comedy act. In addition he felt it would be helpful to allay suspicion about just how powerful Asirra might be.
So as he stepped up on the stage he was wearing brightly colored maroon outfit scrounged from the boxes, along with a mustard yellow hat that looked absolutely horrible. He stepped up and began his routine.
"Ladies. . . er, lady, and Gentlemen! Behold the art of the greatest animal-trainer on the planet! I, the legendary Jaceth, famed across the universe, nay the multiverse! for my skills will now condescend to demonstrate to you. . ."
At this point, obeying his subtle signals, Asirra urinated on his legs.
"Why you dumb beast! Do you not know that I am the almighty and legendary-"
At which point Asirra pulled Jaceth's hat off and chewed it up, increasing his appearance by a hundred percent.
"How dare you! I shall show you the true mastery of man over animal, the fine art of riding!"
And so Jaceth mounted Asirra, who promptly went into a flurry of bucking, rolling, and jumping as much as a dozen feet into the air. Jaceth showed himself completely unable to stay in the saddle, often running along her back, holding onto the tail, upside down across the belly, or winding up facing backwards on her neck. Somehow, however, he never fell off.
