Jesse turned to Cece "Thanks, I learned from my grandfather, he was one of the best Tailors in Germany." she scratched the back of her head "Not really a skill I can use here easily it seems." she said this because she knew there were a few people who knew how to sow at the circus. She turned her attention back to Cece "Glad it came in use for this though, now your tent looks complete."

"And I really appreciate the help." she smiled widely at the other woman. "I never would have gotten so much done by myself. Probably couldn't have even reached high enough to sow the partition." She said with a chuckle before turning away to grab the lavender.
"Which is why this is for you, as a thank you." She held out the plant that had obviously not been in the tent before. In the few moments between Cece planting it, leaving, and coming back it had completely reversed in condition. No longer wilting, it was standing straight and blooming nicely. "You've done way more than I could have asked for."

Jesse blinked, focusing on the plant. She had to turn her head a little to see it fully. It was purple and had a nice smell to it...lavender? She took the plant from Cece with a light blush "Dank-uh I mean thank you." she smelled the flower a little more ans smiled softly. No one but her brother, and grandfather had ever given her anything nice before.

"It's the least I could do." She smiled and stepped back. "Lavender is a really good relaxing scent and can be used in tea if you want." she went on to explain. "I like having it for decoration mostly. So you can keep it in your tent and bring it to me if it has any problems."

Jesse nodded then remembered she had promised to show some sword moves. She couldn't really do that in the tent. "Ah...if you still want to see my sword play we should go outside." she lifted the plant slightly "Plus this fine plant needs some sun, right?"

"It will be fine for a while, but yes, it definitely can't hurt." She reached out and brushed her fingers over the plant. "But you don't have to do a demonstration right away. You've done more than enough. And I can catch your show later." It wasn't that she didn't want to see it, but just the fact that she would get to see the actual performance seemed like the better idea to Cece.
"But...maybe another time you can show me how to use one of those...?" she asked quietly, glancing to the sword then back to studying the plant.

Jesse blushed, knowing she had gotten excited over nothing. She wasn't used to interacting with anyone for so long. Normally people kept their interactions with her to a minimum. "I guess that makes sense...and I would be happy to show you sometime."

"That would be great!" Her demeanor went from shyly asking a question to instantly excited. "I mean...I don't intend to be able to really fight or anything, but it would be really fun to try something new like that, you know? " She spoke quickly in her excitement and it took her a second to realize it, at which point she cut herself off a blushed a bit. "Sorry. I'm starting to ramble aren't I?"

Jesse waved a hand, holding the plant in the other "No your fine, I understand being excited. I'm always excited when I use my sword...even if it's just for show." she smiled and the excitement she spoke of showed in her eye a little.

Cece nodded and smiled sheepishly. "It's just something I've always been curious about, but never had a chance to try." She explained. "Too busy with my plants." She said lightheartedly.

Jesse nodded in understanding. then she looked a little closer at the plant. She wondered where it had come from, but decided not to ask. She knew there were things about the carnies here that was unique from any other circus. She herself was a elf, and people here seemed to simply accept that fact. So she wouldn't pry and try to act as the others treated her....as if it were normal for her to see such things.

Cece shuffled her feet and bit and glanced around the tent. She really didn't know what else she could do for Jesse, since they had gotten a lot more set up than she would have expected.
"So..What time do you perform again? Or are you performing yet?" she didn't want to keep Jesse for too long if she had to go get ready at some point.

Jesse looked up at Cece's voice "I'm supposed to perform after Rhys? The owner said something about thinking of a way to show my stuff without a partner...but I'm not sure what he could be planning." now that she thought of it, the acrobat was the first act wasn't it? "Ah...um I was supposed to get a show outfit...though I don't know what's wrong with what I'm wearing....I just hope it isn't frilly...." she said the last part nearly under her breath. She wasn't sure what kind of outfit they would have for her.

"Hm. I don't know who Rhys is." she admitted. "I haven't met everyone yet." Then she grinned as she caught Jesse's whispered worry.
"I don't think they'll make anything frilly if you don't want it to be. Whatever show outfit you get will look very nice, I'm sure." She pulled her ponytail over her shoulder and started playing with the strands as she picked possible outfits Jesse would get. She knew this might sound like a critique on Jesse's current for of dress, but she hoped the other woman got the point. "I bet you just need something a little more showy. It IS a performance after all."

"Rhys has the first act once we're officially open." she thought for a moment on the comment about the outfit. Showy? "If it's something that shows my back...I won't wear it." she had scars there, and scars didn't make for a good 'show' in her opinion. It was why James always covered his face, he didn't like people to see his scars. In any case, she was sure that they would take her suggestions right? She hoped they didn't force her to wear something she'd feel uncomfortable with.
